Blood Red Queen of Hearts was once named Jezebel. She lived in Babylon and served as high priestess for the Cult of Chaos. She would use her beauty to seduce men and women alike into the cult and then sacrifice them to the Mad-god Chaos. Finally, after doing Chaos's bidding for a very long time, Jezebel rebelled and demanded that he make her not only his queen, but immortal as well. Angry at her impertinence, Chaos tore the flesh from her and imprisoned her soul in a Queen of Hearts playing card. The Queen of Hearts continues to serve Chaos, sacrificing preferably evil, preferably human hearts to him as tribute. Without a body, the Queen seeks hosts for herself in every woman she encounters. Should a woman touch the card, she becomes the host for the Blood Red Queen of Hearts until her body is exhausted.
