	'''Lady Margolotta''' is a wealthy noblewoman living in an appropriate castle near [[Bonk]], in [[Überwald]]. Oh, and she's a [[vampires\|Vampire]], a [[Black Ribbon\|Black Ribboner]], a member of the [[Überwald League of Temperance]] (she is in fact one of the founding members). She may sport a pink jumper (with embroidered bats) ({{TFE}}), though if the remarks of [[Nutt]] are accurate she also owns a dress made largely of leather and rubber~~, and~~ owns a small dog that looks more like a rat. Her coach is entirely black, with black glass in the windows, black horses with black plumes, and no driver. [[Samuel Vimes]] also noted that she "looked like someone's mother".

	The castle where she lives has architecture described as "being influenced by fairytales and the more decorative form of cake" and could be a parody of Roundworld's {{wp\|Neuschwanstein castle\|Neuschwanstein Castle}}, (the building of which drove a King of Bavaria to insanity and bankruptcy).

	Margolotta was a patron of [[William de Worde]]'s newsletter before he founded the [[Ankh-Morpork Times]] and she apparently maintains many such sources around the Disc. With a Vampire's power of persuasion and attention to detail, she's always on top of the political situation, at least across Überwald and the Sto Plains, influencing it subtly and slowly (Vampires have ''lots'' of time). We know that Black Ribboners "switch" their craving for blood to something else and Lady Margolotta now craves control over people. You have been warned.
