The Voodoo Queen is a cross between a sorcerer and a witch. They cast spells through the creation of charms.

Voodoo was brought to the French colony Louisiana from Africa and from the Haitian exiles after the Haitian revolution. From 1719 to 1731, the majority of African Captives came directly from what is now Benin, West Africa, bringing with them their cultural practices, language, and religious beliefs rooted in spirit and ancestor worship. Their knowledge of herbs, poisons, and the ritual creation of charms and amulets, intended to protect oneself or harm others, became key elements of Louisiana Voodoo.¹
The slave community quickly acquired a strong presence in Louisiana. The colony was not a stable society when slaves arrived, which allowed African culture to maintain a prominent position in the slave community. (160) According to a census of 1731-1732, the ratio of African slaves to European settlers was over two to one.¹ The ownership of slaves was concentrated into the hands of only a few of the white settlers, facilitating the preservation of African culture.¹ Unlike other areas of active slave trade, there was little separation in Louisiana between families, culture, and languages.¹ The Embargo Act of 1808 ended all slave imports to Louisiana.² Authorities promoted the growth of the slave population by prohibiting by law the separation of families. Parents were sold together with their children under fourteen years of age.¹ The high mortality of the slave trade brought its survivors together with a sense of solidarity.(160) The absence of fragmentation in the slave community, along with the kinship system produced by the bond created by the difficulties of slavery, resulted in a “coherent, functional, well integrated, autonomous, and self confident slave community.”¹) As a result African culture and spirituality did not die out, but rather thrived in French Creole culture.
The practice of making and wearing charms and amulets for protection, healing, or the harm of others was a key aspect to early Louisiana Voodoo.¹ The ouanga, a charm used to poison an enemy, contained the poisonous roots of the figure maudit tree, brought from Africa and preserved in the West Indies. The ground up root was combined with other elements such as bones, nails, roots, holy water, holy candles, holy incense, holy bread, or crucifixes. The administrator of the ritual frequently evoked protection from Jehova, the Christian God, and Jesus Christ. This openness of African belief allowed for the adoption of Catholic practices into Louisiana Voodoo.¹
Another component of Louisiana Voodoo brought from Africa was the worship of ancestors and the subsequent emphasis on respect for elders. For this reason, the rate of survival among elderly slaves was high, further “Africanizing Louisiana Creole culture.”¹
[edit]Catholic influence
The slave trade also brought the belief in spirits which is central to Louisiana Voodoo. The spirits presided over every day matters of life, such as family, love, and justice. Originally, these spirits were called by their African names, but once French Creole replaced native African languages, their original names were no longer used. The spirits then adopted the names of Catholic Saints. Each spirit was paired with a Saint in charge of similar spheres of life.² The adoption of Catholic practices to the voodoo faith soon became an integral part of what is known today as New Orleans voodoo. Catholic traditions, such as prayers including the Hail Mary and the Lord’s Prayer, baptism, and the sign of the cross were incorporated into voodoo practices.³
[edit]Voodoo queens
During the 19th century, Voodoo queens became central figures to Voodoo in the United States. Voodoo queens presided over ceremonial meetings and ritual dances. They also earned an income by administrating charms, amulets, and magical powders guaranteed to cure ailments, grant desires, and confound or destroy one’s enemies.⁴
Most noted for her achievements as voodoo Queen of New Orleans in the 1830s was Marie Laveau. Once the news of her powers spread, she overthrew the other voodoo queens of New Orleans. She acted as an oracle, conducted private rituals behind her cottage on St. Ann Street of the New Orleans French Quarter, performed exorcisms, and offered sacrifices to spirits. Also a devout Catholic, Marie encouraged her followers to attend Catholic Mass. The influence of her Catholic beliefs further facilitated the adoption of Catholic practices into the Voodoo belief system.⁵ Today, she is remembered for her skill and compassion for the less fortunate, and her spirit is considered one of the central figures of Louisiana Voodoo.²

Tomb of Marie Laveau
Today, thousands visit the tomb of Marie Laveau to ask favors. Across the street from the cemetery, offerings of pound cake are left to the statue of Saint Expedite; these offerings are believed to expedite the favors asked of Marie Laveau. Saint Expedite represents the spirit standing between life and death. The chapel where the statue stands was once used only for holding funerals.²
Marie Laveau continues to be a central figure of Louisiana Voodoo and of New Orleans culture. Gamblers shout her name when throwing dice, and multiple tales of sightings of the Voodoo queen have been told. Her grave has more visitors than the grave of Elvis Presley. Although she is not yet officially considered a saint, there is a strong movement to have her canonized.²

new skills are learned just like spells. Once the Voodoo Queen researches them successfully She is able to gain the skill at INT + the skill roll. Once the Voodoo Queen has it the skill it can be increased like normal.

Ritual VI
Riturea starts off with a relaxing herbal bath followed by a short period of mediation and a few hours of sleep. . After the preperastions the caster selects an object related to the spell to be cast and performs changts to the east south west and then north. This whole process request at least 24 hours.

Ritual VII
This ritual deals with making Voodoo Dolls or Root Magic. This ritual can not be stored and at the end the item is created or not depending on the skill roll. This ritual takes up to one week to do. During with time the Voodoo Queen can only eat sleep and work on nothing but the item. The ritual items depends on what is being made. But all items must be on hand before the start of the ritual. At the end of the ritual the Voodoo Queen makes a Create Root magic or Voodoo Doll Roll. If the roll is successful the spell is cast and the item is created.

Ritual VIII
This ritual deals with the creation of Enchanted Items. this ritual is very much like Ritual VII. Exept that the enchantment is not started untill after the week prep. After the week of prep the Create Enchated Item roll is made. If that is successful the item is now ready to be enchanted. For every 10 points the Voodoo Queen makes the skill roll is a day that there can be no enchantment placed on the item. Now the Ritual continues and the Voodoo Queen makes the appropiate skill check. If the check fails the knife shatters and that day is wasted. And she looses one day. If enough days past with out enchantment total the ritual is complete and the item has what ever enchantment it has. If a enchantment is not complete the item does not have this enhancement. this is a much quicker version than the witches coven but because of it is a lot harder to pull off.
