 Character Name: Damien Wang Li Wen Real Age/ Apparent Age: 900/ 25 Born vampire or Made vampire: Born Physical Appearance: Damien, or Li Wen as he known in private has long black hair and red eyes. He is taller than most of his race at 6'1", and has a slim muscular build. His pale skin gave him an aristocratic look, and the often Chinese-inspired clothes helped to complete his image of a rich tycoon. Personality: Damien is quiet, but highly articulate and sarcastic when he wants to be, meaning, when his employees get something wrong. He is a very observant person, and he never misses the smallest detail, which is why Midnight Reverie is the most prestigious club and has been lauded for its excellent service. He is an excellent host when he is needed to entertain, but very much prefers doing his work in his office, or sitting at the window overlooking the club. He seems extremely placid, but when he flies into a rage, he can turn extremely violent. He has killed his employees when in a temper, and he has destroyed over half of his property before. It takes alot to calm him down, but when he does, everything is still again, like the sea on a balmy summer day. Likes/Dislikes: Likes: everything going smoothly, peace and quiet, harmony among his employees Dislikes: chaos, disagreements and office politics. Hobbies/Obsessions: Hobbies: reading (specifically poetry, especially chinese poetry), calligraphy, bonsai gardening, rearing koi. Obsessions: The club. He is a workaholic to the extreme. Talents (not for combat situations): He has a talent for gardening, and all the bonsai plants that he keeps flourish under his care and are often sold for high prices afterwards. He also plays the Gu Zheng, and keeps one in his office for display, and sometimes, to play it. He is also very persuasive, and highly evasive. Physical Skills/Weaponry: He knows Chinese martial arts, and is skilled with various Chinese weapons. He never uses anything else, except a Japanese nodachi gifted to him by a friend. Psychic powers: He is highly telepathic, and can communicate with anyone he chooses using only his mind. That is usually how he manipulates people. He can also control the minds of humans and vampires by simply over powering their mind. With that, he can make them believe almost anything, but it is limited by their belief systems and knowledge. For example, he cannot make an atheist see "God", or make a "ghost" appear to a skeptic. He can hypnotize vampires and humans with his eyes, like how a snake would enchant a bird with its eyes before attacking. When he does that, his eyes will appear to be slitted. As a vampire, he can will his touch to be venomous to humans and vampires. Using that skill, he can kill humans with it, and immobilize vampires. [ Approved by Guardian Cross.

 Character Name: Gabriel
Age: 23
Appearances: Gabriel has grey eyes and pale soft skin which tends to bruise easily, with platinum blonde hair which haven't been cut for some time now, and is slightly long and unkempt, just touching the collar, and longer bangs. As he is always dreaming and not paying attention, he may sometimes wear strange clothing for he would just pull on whatever he gets his hands on.
Personality: Gabriel is generally quiet, and is soft spoken, though he may get snappish and frosty when he is angry. A caring and gentle person, he cares a lot for everyone around him, which is why Li Wen puts him in charge of training the new employees. Always sleeping or daydreaming, he is sometimes very absent-minded and might not catch up to what is happening occasionally, especially given his innocence and ignorance of certain matters. However, in the occasions when he is fully awake and alert, Gabriel is very sharp-eyed ( though he'll look sleepy ) and notices the slightest of details quickly.
Like Li Wen, he is very calm, and only when he feels neglected or disrespected might he get angry. Deceivingly looking to be a push-around, he is actually very hard to intimidate, and if pushed too far, might snap. He is submissive completely only to Li Wen. Also, to certain employees or guests that he dislikes, he might be very frosty, or might simply - doze off. His moods are often flighty and changes from time to time.
Likes/Dislikes:
Likes: Caring for the employees and looking after their well-being. He also likes to perform on the harp or the piano when he can, and getting Li Wen's attention. Strangely, he likes it best when Li Wen is jealous because of him, or when Li Wen is neglecting his bonsais. He is secretly happy when Li Wen is protective over him.
Also, he loves the cactus that he keeps in his room, using it as the substitute for his parents since it was given to him at 9. Especially so because it was the only thing that wouldn't die under his care perhaps.
Dislikes: Li Wen's bonsai plants. He thinks that the plants have a higher placing in Li Wen's heart than him, and that they take up quite a lot of Li Wen's time. He also dislikes people waking him when he is sleeping, or dreaming. Gabriel has an immense dislike for new employees that come just to meet their idols, vying for fame, or snobbish teens, though he does not show it, and might get back at them occasionally. Possessive over Li Wen, he doesn't like it as well when others are openly displaying their obvious interest over the vampire, but doesn't voice it.
Hobbies/Obsessions:
Hobbies: Gabriel likes to sleep whenever he has the chance to, or daydream when he has extra time on his hands. Otherwise, he also likes to get Li Wen's attention whenever the other is working. He also likes to sew when he has the things to do so, since he does not have easy access to needles as people steal them and an accident resulted from it.
Obsessions: He has a thing for plucking the leaves off Li Wen's bonsai plants every time he sees one, or harm one in some way or other when Li Wen isn't looking. He secretly celebrates when one of them dies.
Talents (not for combat situations): As his parents were a harpist and a violinist, he knows how to play both of the instruments and is very talented with them. Also, he has a knack for sewing clothes and many other garments.

Human xxShing For Humans: Character Name: Redeta Hawthorne Age: 27 Physical Appearance: Redeta takes after his mother: he has her fair complexion, smooth silky hair, and sharp narrow eyes. In his youth, he was often mistaken for a girl, an error that only makes him laugh.  Personality: Quick-witted and sharp-tongued, Redeta is a very difficult man to get along with. He always has something to say about any situation no matter how chaotic. He can easily speak his mind and has no qualms about speaking the blunt honest truth. Although he comes across as arrogant and haughty, he is actually quite insightful. Perhaps he just likes toying with others. Likes/Dislikes: "Goodness, you wish to know what I like? I haven't opened a good book in a few years. I'd like one of those, but I'm sure it'll run you well over a hundred. Sadly, neither of us can afford that. Yet. As for what I don't like... well! I can't say I'm terribly fond of that grease people throw into their stomachs. I'm a bit of a gourmand. You weren't expecting that, were you?" Hobbies/Obsessions: "Obsession is such a crude word... I'd call it a deep fondness. It's true - I enjoy the finer things in life. Mm, my hobbies include people-watching, sightseeing, and painting." Talents (not for combat situations): "I like to think that I am quite capable of getting by on my own. Let's see here--I'm always willing to meet new people. What else--I have a soft spot for kittens. Oh, that's not a talent, is it? Very well. I can cook. For your sake as much as mine, leave it to me. I rather not hurt your feelings by picking apart whatever leftovers you microwave." History of life as Human : "I'll tell you what my parents tell everyone else: I was a terrible child, always throwing fits and objects. I couldn't sit still and I fussed a lot. They had me pinned as some poor thing addled with ADHD. It's a bit of a blur between that and grade school. Ah, I won the science fair once. I don't know what my project was, but it was good enough to beat everyone else so who cares? After high school, I had planned on attending college. Change in plans. My mother fell ill so I stayed at home to look after her while my father tried to hold onto several jobs, just barely enough to cover the medical expenses. It's a tragic story, isn't it? She's fully recovered, just to let you know." [ Approved by Athanasius Morpheus and Guardian Cross ] Character unavailable roxora-roxiri  Character Name: Hisoka Haguro Age: Eighteen Physical Appearance: Hisoka likes to believe he holds a relatively average height, standing up at 5’7” (and even anyone tells you otherwise, know that they are a lying, sneaky son of a b*tch). His hair, which others will often mistake for being silver (which it is not; it’s just a very intense shade of platinum blond, damn it), is often hidden beneath the boy’s favored newsboy cap, a black little thing with a rather small rose charm fashioned out of glass pinned onto the right side of said cap. He is always seen wearing a black blazer unless the temperature outside is hitting ridiculously high degrees, in which case the boy would revert to wearing a relatively simple white t-shirt. Personality: Hisoka has, and believes himself to always will be, a little wary of other folks whom do not have any connections whatsoever to either his family or to his (relatively small handful of) friends. He is a cautious lad, often overanalyzing his situations with questions such as “But what if something like this were to happen?” He doesn’t really believe in the kindness of strangers as, over the last eighteen years he’s been living, he has come to the (what his family and friends perceive to be a rather odd and totally inaccurate) conclusion of “nothing is ever free, damn it.” He’s been told time and time again, by both friends and family alike, that he’s a rather pessimistic child, as he rarely ever sees the silver lining of any “difficult” situations; it almost seems as if he takes a genuine delight in deliberately poking out how badly someone’s decisions could end up going. Likes/Dislikes: Likes: Hisoka quite likes logic; he enjoys things that make sense. He enjoys being able to relax in solitude every once in a while; people can get insufferable every now and then. He finds cloudy weather nice, as he likes the lazy and calm atmosphere they can bring. He cares for his family and friends but often questions their sanity when they pressure him into doing things that he himself finds a tad bit ridiculous. Dislikes: Hisoka detests crowds; he finds them suffocating and often just plain obnoxious. He finds coconuts to be horrid fruit and would very much like them kept away from his general vicinity. He doesn’t like talking about fires or clowns so good luck on getting him to reveal the reasons why he hates those two subjects. Hobbies/Obsessions: Hobbies: This isn’t really a hobby, more of a bad habit really; there are times when Hisoka’s afflicted with the strongest urge to drop everything he’s doing, leave the area and just disappear without informing anyone of where he’s headed and how long he’ll be gone. Obsessions: When eating either M&M’s or Skittles, Hisoka always color codes the pieces of candy into different groups before eating them. Talents (not for combat situations): Hisoka does not have any particular talents worth noting. History of life as Human: Hisoka’s life has been relatively average; save for all the odd situations his best friend had often persuaded (forced) getting him into. He leads a rather normal, some may even go so far as to say dull, lifestyle; he lives in, what he believes to be, a ridiculously happy family of four, compromising of himself, his younger sister, his father, and his mother. He walks to school every day. He talks to his friends about rather stunning celebrities he really has no hopes (or desire for that matter; those guys are probably all just a bunch of snotty sons of b*tches anyways) of ever meeting. He lives in peaceful times; there are no wars his country is involved in, world hunger was a thing of the past, and the rates of crime are exceedingly low. He lives a safe life, a normal life. Which is why, when he’d been issued a letter of employment to one of the world’s most elite clubs, both his friends and family immediately started pressuring him to accept before he finally caved into their whims. [ Approved by Guardian Cross ] Staraito  Character Name: Tanay Koal
Age: 20
Physical Appearance: The first thing most people notice about Tanay are is sharp gold eyes. While they are in fact just a very light shade of brown, even natural light give them the appearance of clear honey, that shreds its way through his overly long fringe. His hair is long simply because at his rebellious age he never cut it to annoy his 'oh so perfect' parents and he never grew out of that habbit while at uni. He stopped growing, upwards at lest, at the age of 17, so stands a fairly short 5'8” which pissed his father off even more, since it threw his dreams of having a basket ball playing son in the pan. The only other interesting thing about Tanay is the barcode tattoo on his wrist and his strange long for hoodies and hiding his face.
Personality: Known as Nay by most, this blond is a relaxed and pretty much down to earth guy. Compared to his teenage self, he has shaken off the shekels of his upright upbringing and basically told the world to piss off. That being said there are only two things that will annoy him, repression and people taking his smokes. He's not afraid to speak his mind, but will often stay out of arguments that have nothing to do with him. He has a strong business mind from his up bringing but firmly believes that business is just full of monkeys in suits. He would rather eat pizza then go on a date with a film star, and rather quit smoking then cut up the dance floor. All in all, he's your averaged guy.
Likes/Dislikes:
Likes – Tanay like many things but there are only a few things he loves. First of there is smoking, which, though he finds incredibly revolting and uncool, he does to keep his mind at ease. Second on the list is his ex-girlfriend, whom he still pines after like a lost puppy in a park. If someone where to even mention the name Leia to him, he would either punch them in the face and ask where she is, or just go completely silent.
Dislikes – Having been brought up surrounded by them, Tanay hates rules and restrictions. His parents, therefore, are also in his hate list. A strong distaste for plums can be explained away by the summers he spent with his great grandmother in france, as can his fear of small spaces. Business, classical music and love are also bringers of stormclouds.
Hobbies/Obsessions:
Hobbies - A gamer, a photographer and part time book store clark, Tanay has a few hobbies which are more like past times, most of which he picked up for a few weeks before letting the vanish into the vacuum of his room, never to be seen again.
Obsessions - Nay is a chain smoker, if he has one – which he does quite often – he will keep lighting up until he runs out. He knows its bad for him but when ever people tell him this he just tells them to mind their own business unless they steal his smokes at which point he will get violent.
Talents (not for combat situations): Thanks to 10 years of parent pressure, Tanay is near perfect on the piano, violin and in voice. If push comes to shove he can cover most singers in bands – as he has done in the past for friends of his. He has a knack for talking himself out of things as well which comes in useful should he have done anything wrong or asked to come in for extra shifts. Nay is also a very good listener surprisingly.
History of life as Human : Tanay was born into a rich, upper class family. He was everything his father had ever wanted in a child and his mothers little darling... until he turned 10. All the years of being forced to learn piano and french, of annoyingly perfect balls where he was placed in a to tight suit and pushed in among those who where already his perspective brides had finally got to him and so he started to brake what rules he could when ever he could. For the next 7 years he was called an outrage, a disgrace and even a demon by his parents, and his supposed friends called him spoilt and a brat. It was only when he made it to collage that he found himself free of everything – finding true friends and, what he thought was true love. Leia was his everything for the next 2 years, he even dropped out of collage to find a job in order to buy her a ring. His friends called him crazy, Leia called him charming, Tanay called himself a fool the morning he woke up and Leia was gone. The male still hasn't gotten over the loss, though has finally given up his bookstore job finally realising she wasn't going to walk in a apologize. Though he has no idea why he was offered this job at such an elite club with out even handing them a CV, he needs the money, and if they're rich, they're going to tip big. [ Approved by Guardian Cross and Athanasius Morpheus ] BellaXxDonna  Character Name: Chase Age: 19 Physical Appearance: Chase stands about 5'8 with fiery red hair and emerald green eyes. His hair has silvery/white streaks in it and he has a few piercings in his ears. Not having a specific style of clothing he can be found in a simple t-shirt and jeans one day than come in in combat boots and tight leather pants the next. The one accessory he always seems to have on is a collar or choker of sorts. Personality: Upon first meeting him Chase can come off as cold,uncaring and distant but people close to him know that's just a front. He's very protective of people he cares for and once he considers someone a friend he'll do almost anything for them...even if he bitches about it. For the most part he's laid back and minds his own business prefering to keep to himself. When annoyed he is quick tempered and sarcastic. Likes: Chase is fond of music and exploring new places. Though he tends to keep to himself he does like being around interesting people and randomness. There's one person who he geneunly cares for and that's his younger brother Cody. Dislikes: Though he'd rather die than admit it Chase has two major fears. He hates heights and small spaces. Crowds also make him highly uncomfertable especially if the people surrounding him are obnoxious. He hates being told what to do and is more than happy to tell someone to piss off,though he tries to keep his temper in check at work. The only person he allows to boss him around is Damien,and even then he usually makes his distaste known through subtle glares or smart a** comments. Hobbies/Obsessions: Most of his time is devoted to looking out for his younger brother and work,so Chase doesn't have much time for anything else. He loves bikes and has one of his own that he considers his prized posession. Talents (not for combat situations): He has a passion for music and can play the guitar very well. His best friend Seth and himself once had a small band but they both quit it and he hasn't played since. History of life as Human : Chase's father abandoned him and his mother when he learned the women he had been having an affair with was pregnant. His mother did the best she could raising him as a single parent and the two grew close. When he got older she started to travel frequently and often left him in the care of a friend who had a son his age. The two boys became close friends and when they got older rented an apartment together. One day two police officers came to their front door with a young boy struggling to escape their grasps. They simply handed Chase a note from his mother explaining that the boy's name was Cody,and he was Chase's half brother. His father had passed away and Cody's mother,riddled with grief,commited suicide. The boy would have been placed into foster care but the police managed to track down Chase's mother who,instead of being bitter toward her ex-husband's mistresse's child,insisted he come and live with her. Though she wasn't a blood relative and therefore couldn't take custody of Cody she told them to contact her son who had just turned eighteen. Chase refused to be Cody's guardian at first but gave in at the insistance of his mother and his roommate. The two half brothers have been living together for a year now and though their relationship started out rocky the two have become very close,even if they do fight every chance they get. Chase accepted the job at Midnight Reverie in order to help support himself and his younger brother. Arcana XIII - Nyx
 Character Name: Nathan Hawkings
Age: Eighteen
Physical Appearance:Standing at 5”7’ (not an inch lower!), Nathan is often amongst the shortest in most groups, a standing not helped by his tendancy to slouch when standing up. His hair is always swept back from his forehead, as he claims that any other style doesn’t suit him, other than when his bangs are swept forwards, and then he can’t see. His skin, although pale, isn’t quite the ghostly colour gained from constantly avoiding the sun. His watery, pale blue eyes and lack of a smile tend to give the impression that he’s bored and uninterested, even when that is far from the case.
Nathan’s dress code is casual, he’s rarely seen in anything other than a relatively plain t-shirt and a pair of baggy jeans. On formal occasions, you’ll usually see him a shirt and some simple trousers, but regardless of occasion, he’s never seen without his trademark yellow scarf, even in the heat of summer.
Personality: At first, Nathan tends to come across as a charming, if a little distant, young man, never forgetting his manners towards those of higher status than him. However, this image quickly fades, as the anti-social teen runs out of pre-made lines to hide behind. He tends to act indifferent in most situations, making choices based not on ‘right and wrong’, but how they will affect him more than anything. This tends to make him appear selfish, although this is far from true. Thanks to his anti-social attitude, he often ends up with few people to place before himself. Despite this, he’s actually quite a nice kid. It’s just a matter of getting through to him, or if your lucky, getting him to like you enough to open up. If you do, you might find someone who’ll follow you to the ends of the earth.
Likes/Dislikes: First and foremost, Nathan loves sweets, and pretty much any sort of sweet food. They have an almost intoxicating effect on him, calming him down and making him easier to approach. Outside of his delight in sugar, he also likes reading, mainly horror novels. Although, it’s been a while since he last read anything, don’t expect to find him with his nose in a book. Although he would never admit it, he’s also got a weakness for yellow clothes, hence his ever-present scarf.
When it comes to dislikes, his indifferent nature makes them fairly few and far between. As if to balance out his sweet tooth, Nathan will never eat anything spicy, and avoids fish like the plague. He also shows a clear dislike towards anything ‘posh’ or upper-class, and immediately dislikes anyone who he places into such a class. Also, in a slight paradox, the reclusive teen has a mild fear of being alone, and as a result, tends to linger around groups even when he has long outstayed his welcome.
Hobbies/Obsessions: Aside from his mild reading hobby, and obsessive sweet tooth, the only hobby Nathan could be described as having is swimming. He’s far from a professional, but he finds water immensely soothing, warm or cold.
Talents (not for combat situations): Nathan possesses only one talent, but a fairly remarkable one nonetheless. So long as he’s paying attention, he is capable of remembering anything he sees, hears or reads for up to months afterwards. Combined with his observant nature, this makes Nathan quite the source of information on current events. That is, if he’s willing to talk about anything to you.
History of life as Human : Back in his pre-teen years, Nathan was a bright, happy child, and the treasure of his loving parents. Despite his father never managing to keep a hold on a job for very long, the family of three always managed to hold together, that was, until their son’s intelligence began attracting attention. By the age of fifteen, his parent’s attempt at entering him into a private school, to “Give him the chance he deserves” paid off, and it wasn’t long before the teen was attending an academy full of the children of the upper class under a lucky scholarship. Immediately, or so he believes, he fell under immense pressure from his parents to be the best he could, and when he reached that, they asked for more. No matter how high his grades rose, how much the teachers spoke well of him, his parents wanted better. Nothing was ever good enough for their son, as they feared that even the smallest slip might cause him trouble in the shining future they saw for him. Under such pressure, it was no wonder he snapped and gave up. As he said to his parents, “If I can’t do well enough for you, then what’s the point in even trying?” Bitter and angry, it wasn’t long before his grades dropped, and the funding for his education vanished. That was three years ago, and even now he is still reminded of his failure by his angered parents.
When the letter from Midnight Reverie arrived, he set off to work without so much as a goodbye. To him, a chance to serve those who live the high life is not only a chance to escape from his past mistakes, but also a chance to see how his life might have turned out. Even if it is a mistake, it’s still the perfect chance to get away from those who consider him nothing more than a shameful child.
Sai Mishimoto  Character Name: James Brennan
Age: 17
Physical Appearance: James is 5'7" tall. He has long deep red hair that flows down his back to just below his buttocks which he usually wears in a ponytail. His eyes are a beautiful, bright emerald green that seem to glow on his pale, pale face. He doesn't smile that much because most people don't give him reason to. He has a slim frame that he drapes with white clothing. Long sleeve shirts hide the self inflicted cut marks his arms. The white is to make him look less pale because even though he grew up in snowy Chicago he is still more pale than most people there. His clothing style can best be described as emo but instead of black he wears white. His fingernails are grown out long and pointed and painted dark purple. They stand as a stark contrast to the rest of his appearance and most people notice them first off before looking at the rest of him.
Personality: James is a loner. Having been mostly hated in his high school he forced himself to excel and graduate a year early. This determination turned into an expectation to be intelligent and competent in both himself and others. He despises stupidity and rewards it with contempt. He is incredibly organized and expects the same from those around him. He spends most of his time alone however, and does not have many people to apply these expectations to. He spends a lot of time inside his own head planning out the way he is going to spend the next few hours. He generally stays away from other people and likes that they stay away from him. He has an extensive library that he now carries in digital format on his Sony Reader. He enjoys reading alone without any sounds.
Likes: Knives, Intelligence, the color purple, Organization, Reading
Dislikes: People, Stupidity, Undue Blame, Violence, Alcohol
Hobbies: When not doing any of his other hobbies James likes to sit and plan out the way he thinks life will proceed. He is often correct in his assumptions as to the way people will react to certain stimulants and is therefore good at planning ahead.
When he feels that he needs more to do than just sitting there planing he pulls out his deck of cards and plays a game of Solitaire. This game is perfectly suited to him because it does not require interaction with other people. He carries his deck around with him everywhere he goes.
Astronomy is another past time that he enjoys. He has a membership to a site that updates every night and he studies the images of stars daily looking for any inconsistencies that might give away the fact that a celestial event has occurred.
When he is very bored he turns to his least favorite hobby, but a hobby none the same. Crossword puzzles are a way for him to test himself with his knowledge of words. He does this only in cases of extreme boredom.
One of his favorite things to do is sit there and watch people. Usually when he is sitting in the corner of a room or the middle of an open place he is watching and listening to the people around him. He takes notes into a notebook that he carries with him at all times. He then reflects on these notes at the end of the day.
Obsessions: James has only one obsession, but obsession has such a negative connotation. He wants to be the smartest person that he interacts with. This strong desire causes him to push himself beyond those around him. He will fiercely berate himself for being lower than those people that are smarter and will spend every moment of his time trying to correct this "imperfection".
Talents (not for combat situations): As mentioned above, James graduated a year early from High School. He has a talent of pushing himself to be smarter than other people his age.
History of life as Human: At an early point in his life people singled him out and shunned him. They could tell that he was different and it was heartbreaking for him. He later grew into this role of the outcast and began to enjoy being alone all the time.
By the time he had reached middle school he had no friends at all and he began applying himself to become smarter than all the people who had turned their backs on him. His mother was the only person that really showed that she loved him but even she was taken away from him by a drunk driver. After this happened his father descended into alcoholism and he began to despise alcohol altogether.
Since the death of his mother and his father giving up on life he has had to raise himself since the age of 12 and has developed a strong sense of responsibility and was delighted when the letter arrived. He would be able to make money and survive on his own if he got the job so he eagerly arrived on time for the meeting...[ Approved by Athanasius Morpheus and G.C ] Je Suis La Vie
 Character Name: Anthony L. Yale
Age: 19
Physical Appearance: If I had to use one word to describe myself it would have to be ‘stud!’ No, in reality I’m just an average guy. I have dark brown (almost black) hair and eyes to match. Even my height is typical, only 6’0”. I have lean muscles, but I’m not body builder.
When it comes to clothing, I’d have to say nothing beats the comfort of jeans and a t-shirt. Usually the ‘T’ will have something witty written on it. Sometimes I’ll throw in a jacket-vest for a little style. As for shoes, I’m always wearing my comfortable sneakers. A good arch makes for a happy man.
Personality: Most of my friends would say that I’m outgoing. That’s really saying something, seeing as I have lots of friends. I guess that happens when you’re as active as I am. Aside from school (where I’m majoring in Sociology), baseball, and my part-time job as a tutor; I donate at lest ten hours a week to the local homeless shelter.
I have a need to constantly strive to make things better. Sometimes this really irritates those around me. Also, I have a need to be in charge. I guess I think that if I’m the leader, then I won’t get hurt. I need to be in control of my own destiny, I guess that is why I’m an atheist. That leads me to the detail that I’m very opinionated and stubborn. If I see something that I don’t like, then I’ll let you know it. I’m not intimidated easily, though I’ve been told that I can be when angry.
Likes: I have lots of likes, far too many to name. But if I had to pick some, I’d have to say that my biggest ‘like’ is people. Is it strange to say that I really enjoy the company of people? High on the list would have to be politics. I know what you’re thinking, ‘Politicians are only out for themselves.’ I, however, like to think that there are at lest a few good ones that try to make life better for the rest of us. I guess a big chunk of my ‘likes’ would be any sort of activity that lets me socialize with people. Sports, games, movies; anything that requires more than one person and I’ll most likely enjoy it.
Dislikes: One of my biggest dislikes is blood. I’m a MAJOR hemaphobic. The slightest trace, scent, or even thought of blood gets me all queasy. I even have to ask for my steak well-done. After that, I’d have to say being alone is a big dislike for me. Boredom is my biggest enemy, which is a reason why I’m very active in my community. Television is so boring to watch, and reading is boring too. Neither is very social. I’d much prefer to be out and about than home doing either of those activities.
Hobbies: Baseball, though I enjoy many sports. I know this may sound strange coming from a guy like me, but I follow Astrology as well. I’m a Leo, and I think it shows. If you don’t buy it, then that’s cool, but it seems to work for me. Last, but totally not least, volunteering. I think its important for those of us that have it better to help those that have it worse than us.
Obsessions: My obsession would definitely be Pepsi Cola. I mean, I literally have it with me all the time. I’m addicted. To the sugar, to the caffeine, to everything about it. Oh, and a small warning to others, don’t mention the other brands of cola around me.
Talents: I have this weird talent of understanding things quickly, and with great depth. This has been really useful in helping me get better than average grades in school. I can also play the guitar, which I learned for a band that didn’t work out. Though I wouldn’t necessarily classify it as a talent, I can speak broken Spanish; which is an effect of growing up in sunny Southern California.
History of life as Human: Well, what is there to say about my past? I guess I’ll start off by saying that I was born in raised in Rancho Cucamonga, California. It’s a middle class suburb of Los Angeles. Life was mostly just fun and games for the most part of my childhood, typical I’d say. I went to school, played little league, and rode bikes around the neighborhood.
Looking back now, I had a good family. My father owned a landscaping company, and my mother was your typical house-wife. I graduated high school and was accepted for college. My parents didn’t make enough to support me, so I had to make do with the meager wages of tutoring. This year, however, I didn’t have enough to make tuition, so I had to leave UCLA until I could make enough to continue my education. It’s strange how fate works, because as soon as I left I got this letter inviting me to an elite club for a job. I just might check this out.

Vampires Currently unavailable Quote:  Character Name: Amon Tao Gamil
Real Age/ Apparent Age: I've disgarded countless calendars, but on the outside, I look to be about 21.
Born vampire or Made vampire: Born. Do you honetly believe I could have been human at one point?
Personality:
I've been told I exhibit no true emotion, though shadows of it can be viewed on rare, rare, occasions. Nothing real, though; nothing that would show weakness. I've never felt anything even close to love, and don't intend to. The only kind of love I'd dare to possess is the love of seeing peoples lives ruined, seeing them suffer, seeing those cloeset to them betray them. I suppose you can thank my dear brother for that. I can kill without a second thought, sew the sweetest of lies without a shred of remorse, and tear down your world with a smile on my lips. Point is: don't ******** with me.
Likes/Dislikes:
+ inflicting pain on others ; nothing holds more beauty than a face contorted with pain. Emotional or physical, pain is such a wonderful thing.
"You should scream more often; it suits you."
+ punk, rock, metal ; why didn't they come up with this stuff sooner? I led the majority of my life in darkness because all I had was the soft tinkling of piano keys and god-awful hyms complaining about how ******** sinful living creature are. No, I much prefer metal. At least it embraces man's sinful nature rather than runs away from it. Humans and their Gods. I'll never understand.
+ music ; while most vampire appreciate the fine arts, my bloodline has a paticular fondness for things such as music.
- Whining ; everyone has a hard life, everyone has a broken heart - don’t b***h, you’ll make an a** of yourself.
- humans ; they're, well, human. Disgusting, annoying, and stupid. They're useful only for sustenace, perhaps a little fun (they are fun to torture, I must admit), and if they taste good, well, that's all the better, but for the most part, I'd rather pretend they didn't exist.
- Sunshine ; the toxic rays are ... blissfully annoying. It blinds me, which is bothersome, and next to that, vampires seem to have a natural aversion to it.
- My past ; just don't ask. Seriously.
Hobbies/Obsessions:
As I said earlier, I have a deep love for the creative arts, and more specifically: music. I don't know what it is, but just listening to it gives me such a rush of adrenaline, it's almost hard to not love it; the adrenaline is addicting. Especially the heavy stuff, like rock. The deep, almost growling vocals put me at ease. I do not mind classical, and enjoy listening to it on occasion, but for the most part, I prefer the heavy stuff.
Besides music, I also have a fondness for literature, though in this instance, I prefer the classics. Edgar Allen Poe, who I had the pleasure of knowing as a personal friend (not all humans sicken me, I suppose), is a personal favorite of mind, and the gothic, gory aspects of his pieces make me smile.
Talents (not for combat situations):
Tying in with my love of music, I can play several intruments, ranging from string to percussion to simply my voice. I've had a considerable amount of voice training (3o years of it, actually) so my voice is a thing to be heard - not that I intend to brag about it. I'm also quite practiced on the piano, guitar, and drums, as well as several other intruments. Among my favorites are the Saxaphone and the citar, and I usually just stick to those two. On occasion, if I'm frustrated and feel like beating something inatimate, I'll get out my drumset (a vampire who plays the dums - isn't that an amusing picture?)
Physical Skills/Weaponry:
Weapons? Who needs weapons when your race is built to hunt? Honestly, I prefer the brute force of my body to the cold steel of weapons. If anything, the whip is my weapon of choice, simply because it causes pain without actually killing. Other than that, let me break you with my body (no kinkiness intended, though I don't mind a little of that, either.) rather than with cold steel and leaded bullets.
Psychic powers:
Unfortunately, I haven't been gifted with signifigant psychic abilities of any sort, though I've been told my mind is a difficult one to read, control, and communicate with. Perhaps that in itself is a psychic ablility. Like it matters. Point is, I am not telepathic, I cannot hypnotize (by unnatural means, thank you very much. My body would suffice if I wished to hypnotize anyone.), I cannot control others with a simple thought, and have no desire to. On the opposite side of the spectum, it is a difficult to speak to me telepathically, I'm too damn stubborn to be controled by means of the mind (or by phycial force, for that matter), and my will is mine, not someone else's to be manipulated and toyed with. It seems psychic ability of any sort is simply lost when it comes to me.
The only other remotely psychic 'power' I possess is the ability to manipulate the energy fields (human's auras, vampire's 'power streams', and other things of the like.) to my will. For the most part, I ignore the ability, prefering to lash out physically rather than from behind the energy around me, like a coward.
Actually, I'm quite glad I do not possess anything of this sort, and I am even happier with the fact that my mind is a difficult one to dciepher. Walking around in other people's minds ... that's something I'd rather stay away from. It seems quite intimate, and to be honest, I'm afraid of such intimacy. Granted, it might prove useful, but I can manipulate people perfectly well without the use of unnatural abilities, and it seems such a waste to bother with skills you do not require, or have any practical use for.
History of life as a Vampire:
Once upon a time- Aw, ******** this s**t.
I’d rather not share my past with many people, alright? I like my privacy, and when you ask me where I came from,my family, etc., I won’t be overly pleased. In fact, if you persist in questioning my origins, I might kill you. (I'm not joking. I hope you know that.) So please, do not make me explain it to you. I'll become violent, and you'll probably become frustrated. Just leave this issue alone, all right? It's safer for both of us.
I suppose, for the sake of information, I'll indulge you a little. My past ... it is not something I wish to speak about for mutiple reason, the majority of them revolving around Seth: my brother. He was ... cruel; worse than me when it came to his love of torture, and held absolutely no reguard for anyone but himself. He was completely apathetic, the majority of the time, anyways. The only time Seth hinted at emotion was when ... well, I'll get into that. Even our parents called his an abomination. That is, they refered to him as such before he killed them.
Have you ever had your skin stripped away, even had your eyes burned out by a molten piece of metal, ever had someone's name etched into your body, never to remove itself? And all this, only to have your body heal, just so it could be done to you all over again? No? I didn't think so. What I just described ... that was my brother. Every night, there was no escape. He was so much stronger than anyone I'd even known, overpowering me seemed like such a trivial task to him. It was in these instances that Seth hinted at the slightest bit of emotion: an almost invisable trace of a grin plauging his face.
In a way, Seth might be responsible for my sadistic tendancies. However, considering that notion disgusts me, and I'd rather believe that sadism comes with the job description of being a vampire. However, Seth was afraid of touch. Strange, for a sadist. He burnt me with metal, cut me with knives, hung me in the sun, but never did he touch me. The only time I can recall that he did so was when I cried. He's stroke my face, like a brother should, and he'd always repeat the same sentence. "Don't cry, Amon. Predators don't cry. Tears mean you're weak. Predators aren't weak."[ Approved by Guardian Cross ] Je Suis La Vie  Character Name: Vie DuMorte
Real Age/ Apparent Age: 367 / 19
Born vampire or Made vampire: Born
Physical Appearance: Vie has golden blond hair he cuts short; and deep, emerald green eyes that resonate with joy. When alone in his Paris Chateau (which is more often then not), Vie likes to dress in the style of his younger years; mid 18th century attire. On the rare occasion that he has to leave the sanctity of his estate, he will dress in the posh dress of the day.
Personality: Vie is charming and noble, the archetype of an Aristocrat. That being said, he has the negative connotations as well. He can be very demanding, and considers himself better than most everyone... a true elitist. He is very intelligent, and knows it; oftentimes getting angry at people that do not yet see that he is in the right.
Though he may get angry, he doesn't show it. Vie has a gentle heart, and will forgive anyone of their mistakes so long as they truly are sorry. He will oftentimes root for the underdog, if only in private. At times it is hard to see how the two sides of Vie will react... Vie the Aristocrat and Vie the Noble. But it is certain that Vie would much rather be known for the good that he has, can and will do over his elitism... he's working on it.
Likes: Good, Money, Men, Pleasure, Cats,
Dislikes: Politics, Women, Animals (except cats), Evil
Hobbies: Vie likes to gamble at the various game spots of the world: Poker, Derby, Dog Races, even the occasional NASCAR. Vie also loves to read, and when he is not away or himself writing, Vie will sit by the fire and read a good book.
Talents (not for combat situations): Vie is a poet, and has writing streaks that go on for weeks on end. He has made a name for himself, or rather many names for himself, under his various pen names.
Physical Skills/Weaponry: French Rapier, and he's a master at it. Practicing since his youth, Vie has always used it as a means of letting off a bit of steam. However, Vie still contends that physical force is beneath him, and will therefore only use this skill at last resort.
Psychic powers: Vie is highly empathic. Not only can he feel what other's are feeling, but he can project feelings onto others. He oftentimes uses this to stop any unpleasant friction between those around him.
How it works: Vie’s empathic ability affects the physical body of the target rather than the mind itself. When somebody has a mood, their body reacts physically. Vie’s ability allows him to affect the physical body, causing the mind to extort the given emotion (i.e. releasing Epinephrine in the brain causing fear)
History of life as a Vampire: Vie was born into a highly influential, Vampiric family in 17th century France. Vie’s father, Plaisir DuMorte, was leader of the Vampiric council (a council which controlled the King of France and holds more power then the modern government).
His mother, Renee DuMorte, made sure that he grew up the prince she always new he was. Vie grew up in great luxury, having all that he sought. In his younger years, Vie never cared much for humanity. He had all the playthings he could ever want.
In the spring of 1752, Vie was introduced to a handsome vampire from England, Jonathan. With long, black hair, and the richest of blue eyes; Jonathan was like a Hellenistic statue come to life. They courted for a time, and then they decided to settle down in the French Château that Vie continues to live in. Life for Vie was a blessing.
In 1770, after a month-long stay in the French territory in America, Vie returned to his home to find that Jonathan had been killed. For three years Vie hunted down the person who was responsible, a Vampire Hunter by the name of Perso Decon. In the final moments of Perso’s life, Vie demanded to know why Jonathan had been murdered.
“Because,” Perso replied, “He murdered my mother. She was a nun, and the caretaker of an orphanage. She gave her life to good, and he took it away!”
Thanking back, Vie understood why Jonathan had killed the love of his life. It was from that moment on that Vie never drunk from an innocent person, choosing instead to drink from those that have descended into an evil path.Letheil Character Name: Kain Artemis. Real name Eulalios Artemis
Real Age/ Apparent Age: 1764/looks to be an nice aged mid 30.
Born vampire or Made vampire:
Made Vampire. However not in your typical fashion.
Physical Appearance:
Drawn by me [/url Also drawn by me Typical Outfit
However he does like accordingly to fit the situation. Typically this will mean a wide erray of varried suits and a number of casual swearters and slacks. As a humbled man he never dresses too outlandishly when among humans. Not as if his white skin and hair and his golden colored eyes don't force him to stand out enough as it is.
Personality:
In General Kain is a very pleasant man to be around. He enjoys music and plays a wide array of instruments and loves to share his knowledge of the world with others as well as learn what they have to share with him. He does well in social groups and loves to talk and plays the part of host quite a bit, always willing to get a drink from someone or help them out. A very gentle soul from a long fogotten time, Kain merely enjoys his never ending life to the fullest.
However this is not to say he is a naïve and overly cheerful man, while the modern world does excite him he is a very level headed and wise man. He knows how situations should be treated and can be fierce upon those who break rules, as he has seen what leaving the wicked and those who break rules unpunished can do. While one thinks they have earned Kain's trust he is never that quick to give in and while he may enjoy your company it cold all be a front for Kain hates starting unnecessary trouble. He shows a great deal of respect to his elders and will never hesitate to pursue the truth.
Likes/Dislikes:
Likes: Wine, new information, new experiences, reading about sex in different cultures, love, feeling connected to someone, having someone to protect
Dislikes: Young vampires with no manners, those who don't respect their elders, those who break rules without good reasoning, non salty foods, most technology, cellphones, texting
Hobbies/Obsessions:
Kain enjoys playing the piano, has a new found love of old school jazz, sex in different cultures is an actual very long standing obsession of his. He also finds science utterly fascinating especially bio-chemics. His one true love however is The Count of Monte Cristo novel.
Talents (not for combat situations):
Singing, playing the piano, painting, charcoal drawings, and taking control of situations.
Physical Skills/Weaponry:
Kain prefers his own body as it is always the most reliable of weapons. However he is fond of using Crossbows and broadswords. Being a vampire hunter in his previous lifetime he has used a number of weapons. Again weapons have never been his forte.
However. With some alchemy practice when wearing his metal claws he is able to form the metal into his hand and extend them at will, doing the same with any other metal pieces on his body. That however is the extent of his alchemic abilities as he was never very good with it.
Psychic powers:
Kain has none. However he did during the time he was still in his 700's became a Sage of white magic. Mainly used for healing white magic can be used for defensive purposes and some of it can be used for offensive purposes. This is a strong indicator in Kain's personality and his wish to protect.
History of life as Human: As a human Kain had a brother and sister. They all lived together happily with their family in Athens, Greece. As a young man Kain was quite the angry man. Very violent, pessimistic and critical of everything. Taking care of his sickly sister one saw the more caring and emotionally distraught side of him. However things became even worst when his older brother's fiance became ill. He had left to find a cure but by time he had come back his finace was dead. Mourning his death his brother, who had changed into what more modern terms call a vampire during his journey, he killed their family and forced Kain and his sister Rosely to accompany him on his journey for true immortality, now becoming afraid to die. In the course of their journey his brother had realized that he had fully become what was called a vampire over the course of the years and in a blood lusting frenzy turned both Kain and his sister and then left them there to fend for themselves.
History of life as a Vampire: Kain had never accepted his role as a vampire. Not because he was quick to turn away the life but because he could not see himself as something created by the man he would never call brother again. He spent his time hunting his own kind and other manner of creature, tending to his sister who was growing stronger as the vampirism took over. There came a point in his life where he understood and came to terms with his own anger and instead settled down and started a clan with his sister. He had mellowed and out decided to celebrate his eternal life and rather then abuse the priviliages of vampirism instead used it to enrich himself and those around them and protect those that could not from things that lurked such as his brother. Currently unavailable Miss Yoyo-pon Character Name
Basile de Valentinus
Real Age/ Apparent Age
103 / Around 18, 19
Born vampire or Made vampire
Made
Physical Appearance:
With a ghostly pale skin complextion, Basile stands at around 5'6. Messy, raven tresses mop his head and is cut short, and his bangs lightly brush his shoudlers. A sandy-brown colored hat is usually adorned on his head; it's rare to see him without it on. Basile dresses in very heavy clothing such as trench coats, turtlenecks, etc. Basile pays no heed to the weather changes that may happen to occur; he’s just fine leaving on his coat in 90 degree weather, thank you very much. Because of his psychic ability, Basile wears brown gloves on a daily basis so he does not involuntarily activate his power.
Personality
Basile is an oddball. Peculiar to say the least.
With an emotionless tone, void eyes, and withdrawn nature, one would think that the boy is a walking zombie. He appears to have a very calm and composed demeanor; he keeps his inner feelings to himself and under tight control, and so it’s rare to see his emotions come out in the open. Nonetheless, Basile can be quite... genial, to some extent. Now, he's not one to go and introduce himself or start a conversation, and by no means is he easy to talk with. Really, just listening to his dull voice and gazing at his deadpan features might make one think that the vampire is uninterested about their presence. Not only that, but adding to the fact that Basile is most of the time not seen in the company of others and prefers solitude, he is labeled as either "boring" or "antisocial" to some.
However, one shouldn't go as far as to say that he is antisocial, but rather shy and withdrawn. And with his solitary nature comes his inward reluctance to get too close to anyone. Regardless, that doesn't mean Basile is against getting to know others and perhaps making new acquaintances. His way of communicating with others probably isn't what one would call normal, what with his tendency to be very dreary in his actions; nonetheless, the he is willing to have a conversation with anyone, despite the fact that his words usually come out in the form of short sentences when speaking. Endurance is Basile's forte; though keep in mind that isn't to say the boy is a pushover. Granted Basile has a lot of patience, if bothered, he will make his agitated state known to others. And if pushed far enough, Basile will take the situation into his own hands. He's very much a pacifist, but he will not object to using force if needed to protect himself.
Basile might not be particularly thrilled about his new lifestyle, but like a newborn toddler or infant Basile is naturally curious about his new life as a vampire; so much so that he produces queries about it regularly and on a daily basis. Basile is one to ask questions if the subject presented does not make sense or is new to him. Unfortunately, Basile's steady flow of inquiries tends to annoy those who have little to no patience.
Likes/Dislikes
Likes:
- His hat: Don't touch it.
Dislikes:
- When Someone Touches His Hat: Don't touch it.
- Picking Pockets: Perhaps this habit has to do with his poor upbringing, or maybe it's because he gets a kick out of getting what he wants without a person knowing it. But Basile will, deliberately, slip his hands into others' pockets and steal items within. Is he proud of this uncanny habit? No, not really. He wants to stop, and quite honestly, he needs to discontinue this little custom of his before it leads him into trouble. However, like an addiction, the vampire cannot seem to keep his wandering hands away from pockets. Everyone is a victim, though humans in particular ought to keep an eye out on any suspicious behavior about the vampire.
- Cats: To him they're nothing more than oversized pests. But then again, that’s just his way of covering up his deep-rooted fear of them. The mere sight of a cat sends involuntary chills down Basile's back, and in some cases he freezes up almost instantly. If so much as a hair from a feline brushes against Basile the vampire will hurriedly flee the scene, getting as far away as possible from the creature. So, in other words:
Basile + Cats = One Spineless Vampire
- Stairs: "Dislike" is a nice and cuddly way of describing Basile's view on these monstrous, terrifying...things. Instead of walking up stairs, he simply will leap over the steps. And, god forbid, if ever in the situation where jumping over a flight of steps is not an option, he will (eventually) gather up enough willpower to actually climb up the steps. Unfortunately, the process requires some time (give or take about twenty or thirty minutes) and a ton of deep (not to mention unneeded) breaths from Basile. Don’t ask him about his fear or how it even came to be. Just know that:
Basile + Stairs = One Spineless Vampire.
Hobbies/Obsessions
Hobbies:
Pickpocketing
Obsessions:
His Hat.
Talents (not for combat situations)
Unfortunately, Basile has yet to figure out anything close to a talent... Picking pockets? He doesn’t seem to believe that counts as a talent. That’s more of an... undesirable, nasty hobby of his.
Isn’t a talent something you should be proud of?
Physical Skills/Weaponry
Like many vampires, Basile would much rather use brute strength and his natural abilities as a form of protection rather than rely on the use of a weapon. He likes to mainly use his legs to delivering crushing kicks.
Psychic powers
With physical touch from his hand, Basile is able to "see" the memories, truest desires, and secrets of a human being. Everything about the human’s life is revealed to Basile. It’s sort of like looking into an old film, except that film is all in Basile's head.
In addition to his ability to see into a person's memories, Basile may also tamper with them, e.g., extract past memories of others or give false illusions to those memories. Such a feat has yet to actually be used by him; for he believes tampering with a person's memories is almost equivalent to messing and manipulating with another’s heart. That is something Basile does not wish to be the cause of.
As a side-effect to this technique, the vampire is left with an excruciating headache as a result from the loads of memories being placed in Basile’s head in such a small time.
History of life as Human (Made vampires only)
Unfortunately, this happens to be a life that Basile would not mind forgetting. His zombie-like attitude is thought to have stemmed from his rough past. Essentially born into the slums, Mother and Father weren't the richest; in fact, because of their earnings the four-member family could be described as relatively poor - a notation that never seemed to bother Mother and Father.
"Happiness comes in many forms. Family is what makes up our happiness, Basile."
It's what his mother and father had always replied to whenever their teenage son questioned his parents' enthusiasm even during rough and hard times. It was their motto, dictum.
What hypocrites his mother and father were.
Living in the quiet European town, Basile knew that he had no source happiness. His parents all of their directed their attention to Basile’s older brother, whom was expected to journey to America in the coming years. He was to be the pride of the family, or so his father thought. He was pampered and coddled like a like a pet; it sickened Basile down to his stomach.
Where was Basile's happiness?
In a way, young Basile was jealous of the elder sibling, getting coddled and rewarded like a pampered pooch. He hated his parents, but he both hated and envied his bother.
No, Basile, did not share his parents' views. The family he was born into was most definitely not his source of happiness. His own happiness was something he had yet to discover. And so with a hopeful spirit, he waited....
He was around 18 years of age when he was bitten by what he believed at the time to be a rodent. Yet the following day an unknown pain started to settle inside the male, and along with the pain came new and unfamiliar urges.
He had become unusually aggressive towards anyone, including his own family, lashing out for unknown reasons, and getting angered at even the simplest of things. Once night fell upon his town, his condition became even more erratic. During his mad state he went on a killing spree, assaulting any innocent bystander who happened to be standing within the male's proximity. Bodies of the young and old, sick and healthy littered the blood stained streets of his once calm and peaceful town. The lucky ones who did manage to escape had already fled and were long gone from the town. His parents and brother were not so fortunate.
Was Basile saddened? Not at all.
Did he regret killing the townsfolk? They were by no means his source of his happiness, so why should feel guilty? If needed be, he'd kill again without a second thought.
History of life as a Vampire
Being "young" as a 103 year-old vampire, Basile vividly remembers his life when he was once a human being. Having had the opportunity to once experience emotions such as love, kindness, sincerity, and hate, Basile - unlike most of the sadistic vampires that people frequently come across nowadays - is somewhat reserved about his new lifestyle. He knows that humans are naturally both afraid and curious about the new and unexplained, thus Basil goes beyond measures to make sure that his true nature is not revealed to the humans around him unless needed be. Being feared upon others (namely the innocent) is something that Basile loathes with a passion.
Because of this, he isn't one to boast about his supernatural being, nor is he the type to jump at the chance of participating in any normal vampire rituals. If anything, the vampire is reluctant. Besides a small apartment he owns and calls his home, Basile frequents solitary journeys by himself, wandering aimlessly from place to place. Migrating... and secretly longing for something more in his life. Hyraxe Meyne Character Name: Victor Othello Ascheise
Real Age/ Apparent Age: 115 / 18
Born vampire or Made vampire: Made
 Physical Appearance:
Victor, or Vikki, as he likes others to call him, is exactly identical in appearance with his twin brother, Ville. Standing at about 6'2", due to a distinct European bloodline, his height makes for an intimidating stance, especially when added to his athletic frame. His skin is strangely tan compared to that of other vampires, the result of a distant Spanish ancestor. Born a blonde, but subject to an ever increasing pressure to stand out, Vikki dyed his hair a dark green back in the 60s, and has kept it that colour ever since. His eyes remain their original brown, however, made ever more piercing by the constant outline of kohl he applies daily.
Make-up is something he wears often, more to accentuate his features than to improve upon them. The vampire's style is heavily influenced by his time in the punk rock era, and you will often see him sporting a multitude of outlandish outfits, from grungy, unwashed jeans, to simple bulletproof vests. He even cross dresses on occasion, if anything just to make a fuss. If you take a look at his back and chest, you will notice a multitude of scars from the time before he was turned, some self-inflicted to match those his brother had received. The skin on his left arm, is also inked with a complex tribal design. It is the only tattoo he has, though he plans to get more.
Personality:
Victor has always been the more outgoing of the two brothers - extremely forward, and very physical in his affections. It isn't uncommon for him to settle himself down on the lap of someone he's just met. He views touch as a form of sealing relationships, hence his tendency to get very touchy-feely when amongst people he knows. Confident and proud, Vikki commands a strong presence wherever he goes, acting as the initiator of the pair, quite often speaking on his twin's behalf. Despite carrying a slight air of arrogance, Victor is very much in control of his emotions, mainly because of his sibling. When the two are separated, he can get a little more irritable, but otherwise, he remains fairly calm, his temper only flaring to life when his twin is threatened. Anyone who attempts to even touch his brother without his approval can be sure of severe consequences - Vikki is extremely possessive and over protective. He views revenge as a key moral in his book. When provoked, he will not stop until he feels he's done enough damage; or until Ville makes him end his rampage.
Likes/Dislikes:
likes; Victor has a severe case of sweet tooth. His room is stocked with a multitude of candy, despite not having to eat human food. The vampire also has a taste for good wine, but won't consume any other alcoholic drink. A huge music fanatic, he has a large collection of old punk rock albums, which he constantly plays at full volume. And while he won't ever admit it, the male also has a fondness for instrumental pieces, especially Celtic ones.
dislikes; One of the things that Vikki cannot stand are dogs. He views them as mindless beasts who only do the bidding of others, instead of having a mind of their own. That being said, he doesn't like people who don't have a spine. If they comply too easily, he loses interest, and will proceed to ignore them. Victor fears large bodies of water - his mother drowned when he was five, and he never learned how to swim.
Hobbies/Obsessions:
hobbies; Vikki taught himself to play the guitar quite some time ago. He practices for three hours every day, and has written a few, original pieces. His other hobby is designing body art. He's spent the last three years attempting to flesh out the perfect new addition to his skin, though he has so far been unsuccessful, despite him having several sketchbooks full of designs.
obsessions; Victor is a perfectionist by nature. You will never see him doing a half-assed job. He will not stop drawing until he feels a design is just right, sometimes locking himself up for days till he's finished. He also has an obsession with cult movies, which he collects as avidly as he does music, even holding movie marathons on occasion. The most prominent obsession that Vikki has, however, is that he always wants to look exactly like his brother in physical appearance, hence the occasional self-scarification.
Talents:
Vikki has been playing the guitar for many years now, and he owns several different models, ranging from acoustic to electric. He is a near master when it comes to playing, able to play from tabs, as well as by ear. Unfortunately, the guitar is the only instrument he found worth playing, so he is virtually incompetent when it come to other musical talents. As an artist, Victor has an eye for attractive colours and patterns, as well as a firm grip on the human anatomy. He uses these skills in designing new tattoos. The only other talent worth mentioning is his taste for wine, something he developed from about ten years of experience.
Physical Skills/Weaponry:
Victor is well-versed in the finesse of fencing, preferring the light, tactful style to more crude methods. He also likes to toy with handguns - to him they provide a quick and efficient kill. However, if he is forced into hand-to-hand combat, he will use quick, acrobatic abilities rather than brute strength, disposing of his enemy swiftly and efficiently.
Psychic powers:
Vikki has the ability to distort other's reality, to a certain extent. He basically reaches into their mind and alters their perception of their surroundings. Of course, he cannot create something that conflicts with their personal beliefs. For example, he would not be able to make God appear to an atheist, or a ghost appear to a skeptic. This ability also requires quite a bit of concentration on his part, especially when he uses it on those with strong willed minds. However, once he does break through, he can make a person stare down their worst nightmare.
As a twin, Victor also has the ability to communicate telepathically with his sibling, and glean off his emotions. In this way, they can convey personal thoughts, images, and feelings to one another, even when they are not side-by-side. Their connection extends beyond mental ability though - if Ville is hurt while their minds are attached, Vikki will feel his pain, and vice versa.
History of life as Human:
Victor and his brother grew up in Norway, born to a Norwegian mother and a father who was half Spanish and half Finn. His mother drowned three days after his fifth birthday, leaving his family a poor one, living in one of the more rundown districts of the country. He spend his childhood learning to fend for himself, and his brother, getting into numerous scraps on the streets over territory and material goods. It was a rough life, but it was enough for them to survive. When the economic downturn hit however, things took a turn for the worse. He ended up running away from home, with his twin, looking for a better life, somewhere less dangerous.
By the time he turned eighteen, he'd gone through all sorts of odd jobs trying to earn money for himself and his sibling. At one point, he worked as a waiter in a French restaurant, where a regular patron took a particular interest in him. Eventually, he asked to meet Victor outside his work. When the stranger met Ville, his intrigue near doubled, and he began paying the two regular visits in the rundown shack they called home. Within a few weeks, he offered them shelter, as well as free food. They jumped at the chance, not thinking about the possible consequences. Of course, as one might have guessed, the stranger turned out to be a vampire, and turned Victor the third night they spent at his home. Ville followed soon after.
History of life as a Vampire:
He continued to stay with Demeter for several years, until he decided he'd had enough of Europe, and left the continent with his sibling in tow. With their double act, he managed to secure a position as a bartender, which earned him quite a bit as he clawed his way up the ladder. Of course, mixing drinks wasn't the only thing that paid. Twins were an appealing package, and it didn't take a lot to get past the front door. Vikki did most of the dirty work, and by that, I mean the killing. He had his brother pick up the valuables. They pawned the stuff they stole outside of the city to avoid detection. Eventually Victor quit his job, investing in several companies, that quickly took off. When word of the Midnight Reverie reached his ears, he simply had to get in on it.________________________________________________________ Character Name: Ville Othello Ascheise
Real Age/ Apparent Age: 115 / 18
Born vampire or Made vampire: Made
Physical Appearance:
As a the younger of the twins by fifteen minutes, Ville is slightly more slender than Victor, his build less muscular and more lean. While exactly the same in height, he does not have the strong build that his brother does, instead possessing a more feminine look about him. His skin, like Vikki's, is also a light shade of mocca. He dyed his hair at exactly the same time as his sibling, the same shade of dark green. While he doesn't wear as much make-up as Victor, the vampire does make it a point to look good, either matching what his sibling is wearing, or putting on something that complements the older male's style.
The scars on his torso are precisely like those on the upper body of his brother, many of them either created by himself, or his brother in a bid to keep them looking exactly alike. He even had the same tattoo inked into his arm, and fully intends to match anything else his twin chooses to get done.
Personality:
Ville is a lot more quiet than his other half, preferring to observe rather than to get involved. He lets his brother speak for him most of the time, completely trusting his judgement. While Victor is very forward in his behaviour, Ville is more the type to hold back, and wait for someone to approach him. Even then, he might end up seeking a way out if he starts to feel uncomfortable. Unlike his sibling, he isn't very confident with himself, laden with a bundle of insecurities. However, when he's with his brother, these insecurities aren't as prominent, and he can relax, and feel a little more sure about himself. Like his twin, Ville usually maintains a cool head, though he's more likely to panic than stand up for himself if confronted. Without his sibling, he becomes nervous, jittery, and extremely skittish. The first sign of a conflict will have him running.
Likes/Dislikes:
likes; Ville has a taste for fine dining - while he is no longer human, he enjoys the rich flavor of human foods, and often pesters his brother to eat out, just to experience something new. He shares his twin's love of good wine, but unlike the other, also partakes in the occasional glass of whiskey. The vampire also has an appreciation for the fine arts, and will often attend ballets and operas, dragging his reluctant brother along for the ride.
dislikes; Messes are a very big issue to Ville. He can't stand seeing things out of place. A cluttered room irks him. He cannot take smokers either. The scent of cigarette smoke bothers him quite a bit, and if he is in the same room as someone who is smoking, he will leave immediately, no matter the situation. One thing that truly terrifies him is reptiles. Even the smallest of lizards will have him scurrying behind a piece of furniture squealing. [Most unvampire-like.]
Hobbies/Obsessions:
hobbies; Ville likes to attend theater performances on a regular basis, and also indulges in the vast world of literature. When he's not out of the home, he spends his time painting, usually portraits of his brother, most of his works hanging from the walls of their house. When he really has nothing much else to do, Ville sometimes goes for a jog at night, more of a habit than a real hobby to tell the truth.
obsessions; He doesn't like it when things are not in their right place. One might call it a mild case of OCD, but he gets aggravated if the room isn't in order. Another obsession he has is one he shares with his twin. Like Victor, Ville feels a compulsion to look exactly the same as his brother on the outside.
Talents:
Ville is an expert chef by human standards, due to his constant immersion in the world of fine cuisine. His specialty, however, is working with pastries. It was something he picked up to help his brother indulge his sweet tooth. Back at home, Ville cooks for the two of them nearly every night, never once repeating a dish. As a painter, he is quite accomplished, having sold a few of his works to private collectors. While he has experimented with more abstract styles, his main skill lies in realism.
Physical Skills/Weaponry:
Unlike his brother, Ville is trained more in the art of hand to hand combat, having taken up Taekwondo, up till the third level black belt. The only reason why he does not like using weapons, is because he'd rather stay away from conflict altogether. If faced with a challenge, he'd more likely flee than fight. Still, due to Victor's insistence, Ville keeps a dagger hidden on his person at all times just in case he ends up having need for one.
Psychic Powers:
Ville has the handy ability to block out memories. While it might not be overly impressive, it comes in handy, especially when they need to get rid of witnesses without arousing any more suspicion. The catch is that he can only use this ability when in physical contact with the target, which is difficult if they happen to be running in the opposite direction.
As a twin, Ville also has the ability to communicate telepathically with his sibling, and glean off his emotions. In this way, they can convey personal thoughts, images, and feelings to one another, even when they are not side-by-side. Their connection extends beyond mental ability though - if Vikki is hurt while their minds are attached, Ville will feel his pain, and vice versa.
History of life as a Human:
Ville and his twin grew up in Norway, born to a Norwegian mother and a father who was half Spanish and half Finn. Their mother drowned three days after their fifth birthday, leaving his family a poor one, living in one of the more rundown districts of the country. He spent his childhood depending heavily on his brother for food and safety on the streets. It was a rough life, but it was enough for them to survive. When the economic downturn hit however, things took a turn for the worse. When Victor decided to take off, Ville went right after him, still completely dependent on his brother.
By the time they turned eighteen, Vikki had managed to scrape together enough money to get them a tiny shack home on the outskirts of town. Ville spent most of his time locked up there, afraid to go out on his own while his sibling worked. He tagged along when he could, but there were times when he wasn't allowed in. When a regular customer at Victor's workplace came over to meet him, he was anxious, not fully trusting the stranger. His fears proved true when the stranger sank his fangs into his brother's neck. Initially, he'd been hysterical, thinking that his twin was dead. But as soon as he figured out what was going on, he was adamant that he be tied to his sibling's fate.
History as a Vampire:
Ville never enjoyed his time in Europe. Victor was always either at work, or busy entertaining their sire. It was a dull life, and without his brother around him, he was constantly in a state of near-panic. Finally, Vikki decided that it was enough for him - for both of them, and they left the continent to seek out a better fortune. Initially, they continued their routine, with Victor working while Ville stayed home playing housewife. But then Vikki decided to step things up a notch, and the two began to team up to get money an easier way. He was never allowed to watch the killing, instead concentrating his efforts on picking up whatever valuables he could. Eventually, their wealth accumulated, and Victor quit his job, letting his money work for him by investing in several companies. Initially, when Vikki had mentioned the Midnight Reverie, Ville had been hesitant to participate. But it was clear that his twin wanted to be a part of it all, and he finally gave in.
