Veronika Bloodbane
Veronica is the Latin form of BERENICE, the spelling influenced by the ecclesiastical Latin phrase Vera icon meaning "True image." This was the name of a legendary saint who wiped Jesus's face with a towel and then found his image imprinted upon it. The meaning of bane has an English form of nemesis, the bringer of ruin. Now an affliction, curse, evil, ill, plague, scourge or woe, in Old English bana had a more specific and immediate meaning, of "slayer", "murderer."
