Senegalese by birth, Aida came to the United States to attend college at Tulane University as a musician. However, her interests also lay in religion, as she sought for some meaning in the world. While her family was Muslim, she chafed against the strict rules of behavior and the historic treatment of women by Islam in Africa. Her search for a new identity led her into the arms of Marie Laveau, who saw a little potential in the young woman, but merely persued corrupting her through her desire for identity.
That is, until Legba intervened. He came to the pack after one of the ceremonies and commanded Paris and the rest of them to take this woman in and make her one of them. He gave no reasons, but her nationality suggests to them that she may be a distant relation. So, while she slept off the exhaustion of the orgy, already four months pregnant, though she did not know it, they made preparations for her creation rites while Marie reassessed the woman and tried to determine why Legba had such an interest in her.
Aida's rites were much more brutal than usual, even by the Serpent's standards. After her embrace, she was made to sacrifice her miscarried child to the fire and then endure the tortures of the rest of the pack. It should have driven her mad, but somehow, through some hidden resolve and strength of will, she survived. Legba was pleased and she has been his favorite ever since.
Aida has taken well to her new existence, despite all expectations, and seems bound to follow the example of her sire. Nothing Marie has been able to do has influenced the neonate, but secretly she fascinated by Job, who's influence is turning her down the path of Lilith. Were Legba to discover this, all hell would break loose in the city.
Aida went looking for meaning in life and found hell. All told, she's adapted well to it, but her joy at her new state is a heady, desperate, and self-destructive one. Rather than find any sort of meaning in the world she's been exposed to, she's instead sunk into a nihilistic masochist, giving up on any sort of meaning. Unfortunately, she's finding perspective in the mad ravings of Job and is starting to believe that perhaps the pain and hopelessness she is feeling are, after all, the point of it.
Once a friendly, strong-willed, and perceptive young woman, she's changed much in the course of her dark descent. She is now an amoral creature in search of instant gratification and, more and more, humiliation and abuse. Though she retains her strength of will, the only pleasure she gains is from being broken and forced to gratify the urges of another. In this way, her life gains some sort of meaning and she is able to forget the pointlessness of it all. Oddly, this behavior has Marie convinced she is converting her to the Path of Cathari and the ancilla considers this her most telling victory against her grandsire.
Legba, while her staunch patron and guardian, is a distant figure in her life, rarely getting directly involved in her affairs and watching her from afar. Thus, the two have very little in the way of a relationship. Her intercourse with the rest of the pack, however, is much more involved and she clings to them as the only people who truly understand what she knows. Normal people are just too detached from what she's seen for her to connect with them anymore.
Similarly, though her life is influenced a lot by Job, this is from afar. Job isn't particularly approachable, or prone to conversation, and it is more by example and the occasional public rant that Aida's fascination has taken hold. As she gets deeper into the concept of the path of Lilith, though, she'll probably try and get in closer, to learn its intricacies. One can only speculate what the mad Salubri's reaction will be.
