Cammeo and her twin, *Herita, were born in London in 1844. They were special. Vampires noticed them. They sensed the twins’ supernatural strength and saw them as a threat. Cammeo and Herita's parents reluctantly gave their daughters over to the Committee to ensure their safety. The Committee is an organization that guides the supernaturally gifted. The twins became Seekers, a secret force of enhanced beings specializing in terminating evil vampires.

The twins became the wards of Mr. Webster, who was  part of the Committee. He protected  them as they completed their training, while  providing them with an alter identity - by day they were companions of his little daughter, Mirabell, while at night, they hunted vampires. All was fine until Herita fell in love with Edward. One night, Edward secretly followed them on a hunt and fell victim to a vampire and was turned. Then, Herita, in her grief, let a vampire turn her as well. 

An Empath

Daprima, using her empathic powers, was trying to locate her siblings and found Cammeo instead. Cammeo gained a sense of consciousness and found Mez and Grace, sending their locations to Daprima in dreams. Cammeo became curious about them and became whole again. When she fully awakened, she gazed into the clear blue eyes of Mez.

She didn't know about his relationship with Cammeo. They ended up spending the night together. Cammeo caught them and fell to pieces. Mez was beside himself with guilt for hurting her. Es, who felt awful about the whole thing, did all she could to get them back together. They were apart for a long time and then found each other again. The two have a more mature relationship now.  

A Nanny

Everything was going great until Cammeo became the full-time nanny to Lithium, Racolo and Es's baby.  Since Es was a vampire, Cammeo felt she was a danger to the baby and  the Seeker in her needed to protect him  from her.  She took this job very seriously and began to take Mez for granted.  He started to get frustrated with this whole situation. One night, he turned to Es.  

She’s Back 

When Cammeo was first touched by Daprima’s mind, no one knew that Herita’s essence was affected. Twins, so closely connected with their supernatural abilities, meant that whatever magically happened to one, happened to the other. As Cammeo grew stronger so did Herita, who wanted revenge for Edward’s death.  Eventually, she manifested into a spirit. She planned to haunt Cammeo, but that soon changed by an innocent wish, made by Grace and granted by Io - the genie. Herita found herself trapped in the body of a human girl.  She had never been a regular being before. She didn’t like it and came up with a way to become a vampire again. She got herself invited into the Crew’s home, by Karanthir, a half vampire. She would trick him into bringing 

her over, but how? Then a book on vampire magic fell into her hands, in it she found the potion, First Blood. Then she made a plan.  She’d control Karanthir with this potion. However, the information in this book was for humans who had been turned, not elves. Herita brewed her potion and had Karanthir, an elf, drink it. It made him ill. She couldn’t understand  what went wrong . Never one to give up, she tricked  Es into  

the Violin
Cammeo's music’s so important to her that when she first became whole she was unable to communicate with words. Instead, she 'spoke' using melodies the recipient would hear in their head. Once Daprima presented Cammeo with an actual violin - she spoke (in a very proper British accent). She continues to play and tutor others.     

*Charlotte
is a doll that Mez  gave to Cammeo. Cammeo adored her - until Wysh magicked the vampire part of Herita into the doll.  It took some time for the Crew to figure this out. Then they got Herita out of the doll. Cammeo had a hard time re-bounding with doll so she sold to*Trey.
