[SapphireSkylines]

Name: Lyra Plant
Age: 32
Human Occupation: Flower shop owner, gardener.
Vampire Lineage: Sionis
Supernatural Ability: Lyra has the ability to grow plants.
Special skills: Lyra is very much a religious scholar and can read ancient scriptures, but she isn't completely fluent at it. She's very good at picking up languages quickly.
Which Bird of Prey Can Your Character Turn Into: Northern Pygmy Owl
Goals/Motivations: To survive in this new vampire world. To find purpose and meaning in her new life.
Signature Items: A small leather bound journal, a messenger bag.
Personality: Normally Lyra is a very cheerful young woman who loves to help others. She valued her family as a human as well as her friends, she was very social. Lyra is also very wise beyond her years and is very mature. Lyra enjoys being out in nature and loves plants and animals. In her human life she had tabby rescue named Norman who she loved dearly (and might even still have if her new vampire family let her keep him). She is also fairly religious, having grown up with a pastor as a father. Lyra is also a hard working businesswoman. She inherited her mother's flower shop when her mother tragically died of breast cancer and kept the business up until her transformation.
Weakness/Character Flaws: Lyra is easily trusting of other people and doesn't detect the worst in others that easily. She's also a bit naiive, since she had a great life with not many struggles. Because she was ripped away from her human life that was so great, she may be anxious about the future and depressed that she lost everything, or at least most things that she cared about.
Bio: Lyra grew up in a healthy middle class family. Her father was the pastor at their local church and her mother was the owner of a flower shop. Her parents were always very supportive of her, and she was an only child so she was a bit spoiled by them. Lyra had a fairly normal childhood with friends and did very well in school, she was incredibly smart. She was also fairly pretty and casually dated a few guys in high school but never got into a serious relationship. After graduating from high school she learned that her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. Despite this, she continued her life and attended school at a liberal arts college in Massachusetts where she majored in anthropology and eventually minored in modern languages.

In school Lyra had a fairly average life. She didn't party much but she did have friends and when she wasn't studying she liked to garden in the yard of the small house she was renting, just like how her mother showed her when she was a child. Just before graduating and obtaining her bachelor's degree in anthropology, her mother died of cancer. After graduation she inherited her mother's flower shop and instead of pursuing graduate school like she wanted, she decided to take on the business. The building that the flower shop was in was old and in disrepair so she made the business decision to sell the land and move the flower shop to a bigger, more populated city.

One night after getting groceries on the way back home she was suddenly ambushed and robbed. Her attacker knocked her unconscious and put her in the back of his car. He took her out to the middle of the woods just outside of the city and tied her up. After she woke up she attempted to escape, and slowly worked on her tied wrists. Finally she managed to get free and started to run, but as she was running her captor took his gun and shot her in the back of the head. When she woke up next, she felt enraged and hungry and woke up near a mysterious man that she did not know. She immediately tried to attack him, only for him to knock her out again. The next time she woke up, she was sane but confused. The man explained to her that his name was Leone and that he was going to help her adjust to her new life. She had to live by these new rules if she was going to survive. Lyra had mixed feelings of depression, anger and uncertainty. Would she adjust to this new life? Would she find new meaning after she just lost everything she held dear in her human life? It was hard to say. ​

 

[Damafaud]

Name:
Drevis Senade

Age:
32

Human Occupation:
Lawyer

Vampire Lineage:
Dygarian

Supernatural Ability:
Drevis can make magic contract that force the signer to follow the contract for limited time

Special skills:
Drevis is knowledgeable in the current on goings of law

Bird of Prey:
Reunion Harrier

Goals/Motivations:
Kill his murderers and climb the social ladder of vampire world

Signature Items:
A fountain pen

Personality:
Charismatic. Most people would describe him as that. Courteous manner, eternally polite, Drevis completes his appearance with a charming attitude. He dislikes large crowds, preferring a small knit group where only those that matters are around. Despite his friendly mannerism, he is also a bit aloof, putting a distance between those really close to him and those not so close. Of course, this is only around those he cares about. When in a situation where he doesn't to be polite, his sharp tongue can send a nun into rage,despite himself smiling all the time he deliver unpleasant remarks. A tongue of silver has no need for swear words, after all.

What most people don't know of him is his pettiness. He dislikes being ignored and will hold grudges until he can avenge them. He respects law and rules but will try to go around it through existing loophole or paying favour through the right person. Cunning, yet respectable. To those who know him, Drevis is a figure both to love and to be cautious of when they are against him. Few know him closely, but he holds them dearly once he cares about them.

Character Flaws:

• Extremely petty
• Arrogant
• Selfish

Bio:
Growing up, Drevis rarely met his parents. Working overseas didn't let them see him often, so Drevis was more familiar with his sister, Dyne, and the housekeepers. It wasn't too much of a problem for the siblings, however. Inheriting their parents' workaholic blood, the siblings were diligent in their study and life, although their relationship became estranged for that reason as well. His diligence never appeared when it involve exercise, however, which resulted in him being in poor health and suffering from various kind of mild sickness all the time.

A workaholic that would do anything for his goal. As a lawyer, Drevis was unscrupulous. Law, despite what the world thought, was not black and white. Backroom deals. Loophole of law. Grey justice. Drevis was no stranger to the dark side of the courtroom, and he would not hesitate to admit it -- if he knew he is safe, that is. With his hands stained black, he quickly climbed the social ladder. Money? He had enough for two lifetimes. In fact, he was satisfied where he was, and already planned to settle down.

Not that fate was that nice. With the number of dubious case he handled, he was bound to make some enemies. During a trip to a nature sanctuary, a group of people assaulted him, and killed him. It was all made to look as an accident, but the victim himself knew it was nothing of sort. However, outside the expectation of his killers -- and Drevis himself -- he was revived as a vampire. A vampire with a grudge, that is.

Name: Yvette Yew

Age: 21

Human Occupation: Author

Vampire Lineage: Oriasus

Supernatural Ability: Weak Illusory magic

Special skills: Yvette is a really good actor.

Which Bird of Prey Can Your Character Turn Into: black harrier

Goals/Motivations: To just survive being a vampire and try to get as close as she can to 'normal'

Signature Items: A Unlucky necklace- it has 13 beads made with broken mirror glass. Black umbrella.

Personality: Yvette is a generally calm and collected person. There are things that will surprise her, but not many. Yvette is what many would consider odd and a loner and she really doesn't care about other people's opinions. Yvette doesn't really care about anything. One of the few things she does care about are her friends.

Weakness/Character Flaws: Yvette is a very gloomy person who doesn't seem to care about anything including herself and normally she really doesn't care. Yvette is also kind of depressed.

Bio: Yvette was always a loner. She never had many friends and preferred books, animals- anything really to talking to everyone but a select group of friends that slowly diminished over the years. Her parents weren't very supportive always telling her to try to make more friends try to be more normal and all of that. As a small sign of rebellion she began to do unlucky things as good luck charms. A long time researching superstitions lead her to reading a lot of folklore and mythology sparking a love for fantasy.

After high school she moved out of her parent's house into her own apartment and became an author. While she wasn't exactly well known she got on well enough to have a living. Living alone just made Yvette become even more of a social recluse. Especially since she rarely went out at all and even then normally it was at night. The few friends she did have warned her that one day something horrible was going to happen since she only went out at night. She always waved them off and told them not to worry.

Turns out they were right. One night she had gone out and gotten attacked by someone. She doesn't remember who and while trying her very best no to die she never found out why someone was attacking her. From the few words she heard it was someone who hated her for being so weird. After bleeding out in an alley she woke she woke up surprised she was alive and realizing that she was still alive. Then she saw that there was a person there who told you that she was a vampire of the Oriasus bloodline.

(ignore the hand lol)

Name: Hector De la Rosa

Age: 49

Height: 6'3

Weight: 212 lbs

Human Occupation: Former Professional Boxer

Vampire Lineage: Liaran

Supernatural Ability (should be tied to your human occupation, don't go overboard): Superior physicality. Hector doesn't have any gifts that vampirism gave him. That being said, his physical qualities (speed, strength, tenacity) are greater than most members of his species.

Special skills (is your character a fast runner, good at lockpicking, etc etc.):

Hand to hand/ close quarters: Getting in close and dirty has been Hector's bread and butter his whole life.

Street smart: While Hector may not be the sharpest tool in the shed academically speaking, few would call him dull or stupid. What he lacks in education, he makes up for in sharp wit and combat sense.

Highly adaptable: Given the volatile nature of his upbringing, Hector had to learn to adapt quickly to his ever changing surroundings.

Other: Knows 6 languages

Which Bird of Prey Can Your Character Turn Into: Harpy Eagle

Goals/Motivations: Hector was ostracized, shunned, and stripped of everything he ever came to love from the sport. Someone with a lot of power and influence destroyed Hector's life and he is fully determined to find out who and slaughter them

Signature Items (anything your character always carries?): The clothes on his back and his pride.

Personality: Hector has a very straight forward and honest attitude with everything he does (or at least tries to). He always looks people in the eyes when he speaks does his best to convey what's on his mind. This may make him seem stubborn and transparent and describing as such isn't exactly wrong. He has the habit of always saying how feels and what he believes is right and while he welcomes outside opinions, it generally doesn't change his stance on things. He's a loyal companion, albeit rough around the edges. The boxer is stalwart and headstrong, not afraid to fight for his beliefs or stand up to what he perceives as injustice. He also is not afraid to use violence when words fail.

Weakness/Character Flaws: As previously stated, the man is stubborn and quicker to violence than most. As honest as he is, this does not make him kind. He has led a harsh life and its mark is visible in his day-to-day interactions with others. For all intents and purposes, Hector is not a "hero". He is a anti-hero at best and a downright villain at worst.

Bio:
Fighting was basically all that Hector ever knew. From a broken, abusive home to the slums in Venezuela , Hector has always had to fight to get what he wanted. Whether that desire was to put food on the table, protect his broken family, or simply to survive until tomorrow. Even as a child, Hector was quickly recognized as one of the brawlers in the neighborhood you didn't mess with. His straightforward personality caused people to gravitate to him and follow him out of respect for his ideals.


It didn't take long for his talent to be recognized by recruiters and sure enough, Hector soon found himself making his way to the United States, needing to learn English, and learning to do what he has been doing as a professional now.


Years pass and Hector is now a professional in the boxing world and has already started making a name for himself as, "The man that can't be knocked out." Many fighters put this to the test and many found out the hard way that Hector was a man that could be knocked down but not out. Any fights he lost were never due to a cold knock out but TKOs due to be knocked down multiple times. As his skill rose, so did his fame and knowledge of his field.

This streak continued until a day arrived in which the game was rigged against him. The match was set in Berlin and it was a very small turnout. Unbeknownst to Hector, the guards were giving people a hard time with their tickets and only "certain people" had tickets with no issues. The fight started off normal but it quickly became apparent that Hector's opponent was fighting dirty. Illegal blows, kicking, holding, below the belt hits, and the ref chose to ignore them all. The aging boxer (Hector) saw what was going on and his hot-headed nature decided to play ball. Fighting without restrictions and as dirty as dung was Hector's roots. It was all he knew for a time. The difference as that now he was trained professional.

The boxing match quickly devolved into an all out brawl. Knees, elbows, eye gouging, hair pulling, biting, and joint locks. Hector pulled out all the stops and it wasn't until a vicious elbow from the Hispanic man that damn nearly killed his German opponent was that the cameras that were experiencing "technical difficulties" suddenly came back to life to capture that moment. Along with the string of curses and blows that befell the German's unconscious body.

Any interviews he had where he tried to explain himself was twisted in a way that made him sound malevolent or unapologetic. He was determined to find out who ruined the entire life he had built up for himself

Or at least he was....

Age has started to catch up with the older athlete. He isn't as fast as he used to be and the brutal punishment of his body throughout grand majority of his life had taken its toll on him. His burning rage dulled to mere cinders as time went on and he faded from the memory of the world as quickly as he rose up into it. He wandered aimlessly for several years until someone or something had ambushed him while he was in a drunken stupor. Needless to say, when he awoke he felt a hunger like he had never known and his body felt as if it was unstoppable. It was as if someone had turned back the clock on his body. He felt like he was 20 years old again but.... even better. Impossibly better. Now, with immortality coursing through his veins, Hector was going to find them.

He was going to make them pay.

 

[Vampunk]

Name: Tess Lovrić

Age: 24

Human Occupation: Involvement with Black market dealings and frequent Bouncer/Bartender for Nighclubs

Vampire Lineage: Manchester

Supernatural Ability: Tess is able to temporarily implant false memories into humans, making her able to convince and compel them to do what she wants them to, a trait that would aid her greatly in her line of work

Special skills: Great liar and very charismatic, allowing her to fit into almost any crowd and form a lot of contacts very quickly. She's also quite well versed in the shadier ways of dealing with unsatisfied customers and patrons

Which Bird of Prey Can Your Character Turn Into: Bearded Vulture

Goals/Motivations: To stand on the top of the pile for once and erase her troubled past. A new beginning

Signature Items:
A pack of her favorite brand of cigarettes, a Serbian one
An empty silver liquor flask, engraved with faded names, dented and covered in numerous scratches

Appearance:
Tess is quite tall, being about 5"10, a height that's only amplified by her preferred choice of footwear in form of high combat boots
She's rather lanky and lacks a lot of curves, which is made up by her being quite fit, as one would expect from her line of work.
Tess has several body modifications, such as a rose patterned sleeve covering her right arm and back, as well as a pair of silver rings adorning her left ear.
She keeps her black hair in a messy sidecut that accents her matching dark eyes: One might say she has somewhat of a resting bitchface, as in looking like she's constantly judging everyone, now while that might be true, it's certainly besides the point.
Additionally, her crooked, toothy grin usually causes rather charming dimples to appear on her cheeks.

Personality:
Somewhat brash, rude and having a nasty temper, Tess might not really seem like pleasant company, but those character traits rarely surface when indulging in things unrelated to her profession.
Tess, while still being somewhat awful with social cues and norms, greatly enjoys the company of others and rarely keeps to herself, being somewhat of an extrovert who never passes up on an opportunity to add her own take and particular opinion to a discussion. She's fiercely loyal when it comes to defending her own kin and holds her ground even if it means she'd have to ruffle some feathers in the process.

Whenever she can, she's on the hunt for some fun, be it in form of messing with those she considers friends, indulging in some simpler pleasures or just kicking back and enjoying some peace and quiet.
If there's something she cannot stand, it's people that look down on her, having something of a very prideful vein to her that made her butt heads with her superiors more than once.

Weakness/Character Flaws:
She can be extremely selfish and territorial, defending what she deems to be hers by right
Her rude and very straight forward attitude makes her appear very condescending at times
She lacks a proper moral compass, usually just doing what she deems to be the most beneficial to herself


Bio:
Tess grew up in a very big, albeit very poor Serbian family, always having had to look after her younger siblings as her parents struggled keeping the family afloat. It made her grow up quick, and grow up mean, making her very independent at a young age as she was denied a normal upbringing. In time, her family started to no longer have the means to support so many hungry mouths, and Tess, growing sick of living in a country where she had no future, decided to simply leave.

That opportunity came with a trade company with dealings overseas, and after a long night with a lot of drink, and very little sleep, Tess decided to jump on the first one heading out into the world.
It didn't take her long to fit right in with the other runaways and people of various backgrounds, but a common goal; to finally be in charge of their own fate.
As months turned into years, Tess managed to find her calling in the peddling of things you wouldn't really find at your usual convenience store.
Things that would have her change name, address and identity more than once every few months, working for superiors who didn't really care about their employees plunging themselves into danger as long as they reaped the fruits of their exploits.
Working as an informant for a "respectable" group of smugglers, tending to the bar and their nightclubs while unofficially going about their dealings, Tess found herself in a world where nobody really cared about others, where faces changed every week or so, while others were found somewhere in a ditch.

And that fate soon found her as she got involved with the wrong kind of nightprowlers, her little venture shattered, and her ruined form left cold and stiff near the docks.
For her own little birds hadn't bothered to warn her not to mess with the Manchesters.

[Sacrosanctus]

Name: Ekaterina "Katya" Dragunova

Age: 21

Human Occupation: Figure skater

Vampire Lineage: Dygarian

Supernatural Ability: Katya can emit a stream of frostbitten mist from her hands that slowly coats anything it touches in layers of ice.

Special skills: Katya has sharp wits and can quickly adapt to different situations. She also has no lack of mental fortitude, and can remain calm when faced with adversity.

Which Bird of Prey Can She Can Turn Into: Whistling kite

Goals/Motivations: Katya loathes humanity for their relative frailty and craves their blood. She also generally disapproves of weakness, and she makes certain that she is strong enough to avoid succumbing to other people's control. She values individual strength and respects people that she views as more powerful than her.

Signature Items: Her sly, condescending smirk.

Personality: Having lived under the strict and watchful eye of her parents for the vast majority of her human lifetime, Katya harbors an undying hatred towards those who seek to control her. She is perpetually condescending, and she goes through great lengths to reassure people that they will forever remain beneath her. This rings especially true for the physically and emotionally frail; she is disgusted by anyone who willingly abides by others' authority or constantly seeks help or protection. However, Katya spares her holier-than-thou attitude mostly for people who are obviously incapable of meeting her standards, and she shows cooperation towards her equals and her betters. Katya also thinks that humans are universally weak, and the tastiness of their blood makes her think of them as little more than snacks that exist at the bottom of the food chain for her pleasure. She often refers to them as meatbags, and thinks they are just barely above glorified meat that can walk and talk.

Weakness/Character Flaws: If Katya sees that someone is weak, she will forego all sympathy for them and refuse to associate herself with them unless it is absolutely necessary. She also tends to isolate herself due to her excessive need for individual power.

Bio: Katya's parents were a couple of hardcore Olympic figure skaters, and they forced her to master the sport against her will. She was put on ice for as long as she's been walking, and the better she got at ice skating the more she hated it. However, her stubborn parents never respected her wishes and forced her to perfectly meet their expectations in not only skating, but all aspects of life. When she was 15, Katya tried to run away from home, but ultimately returned after she realized how difficult it was to survive completely on her own. She continued following her parents' every desire for years, meeting their expectations regardless of the amount of pressure was put onto her. However, upon reaching the age of 21 she suddenly decided to live completely independent of her parents and forge her own path. Her new vision was short-lived, as mere days after she made that fateful decision she was led to an abandoned alley under the influence of a vampire's miasma and sucked dry. However, this particular vampire was sympathetic towards humans, and only selected her as prey because they happened to be starving and required human blood to drive off their bloodlust. As a result, Katya later awakened in a blind rage.

She prefers the name Katya over her full given name, Ekaterina, because she wants to defy her parents' will as much as possible and rewrite her existence separated from their influence. It is ill-advised that anyone calls her Ekaterina regardless of her feelings towards the name.

[Reis]

Name: Lucas Sullivan

Age: 22

Human Occupation: Pest Control

Vampire Lineage: Dygarian

Supernatural Ability: Rodent Manipulation - Lucas is capable of sensing rodents within a few blocks of him and controlling their minds.

Special skills: Computer Savvy - After spending his childhood glued to his computer screen, Lucas picked up many basic functions of a computer.

Bird of Prey: Gray Hawk

Goals/Motivations: Although he would never admit it to others or himself, Lucas absolutely hates the happy and successful people of the world. He is subconsciously motivated to sabotage the lives of anyone living an easy life.

Personality: Lucas's previously selfish personality was suppressed after years of being told what to do with his life. After living with an oppressive and violent uncle, he eventually learned that surrendering to the strong is easier than facing the pain of defiance. The lack of respect given to him made him a rather quiet person, and he carefully analyzes the things he says and does before acting. His "mousy" demeanor is not due to social anxiety, but rather the fact that he is used to being ignored or hurt for sharing his opinions.

Weakness/Character Flaws: Lucas has a deeply rooted hatred for anyone who lived a decent life. If someone rubs their happiness into his face for long enough, he will slowly become annoyed or even outright angry at their presence.

Bio (Minimum 3 paragraphs, keep in mind being turned wasn't your choice, and you didn't know vampire's existed beforehand. Get creative!):
Lucas lived a truly miserable life. His dad was an average middle class salesman, and his mom cooked and cleaned at home. Since he was bullied early in life, he was never really able to make friends at school. Because of his inactive social life, he could only turn to one place for relief: the immersive world of the internet. But Lucas' attempts at enjoying his existence only seemed to worsen his problems. His father started yelling at him for failing to contribute to the family in any meaningful way, and his mother hid self-centered disappointment under a facade of love.

When Lucas thought things couldn't get any worst, he was proven wrong far too quickly. One fateful evening, his dad lost his focus during a drive to a family vacation. Before he was finished shouting, he drove headfirst into an incoming truck. The accident killed both of Lucas' parents, along with any small hope of him living a normal life.

After the death of his parents, Lucas was forced to move in with his uncle. The man worked himself to the bone, removing bug infestations from the filthiest of neighborhoods. On the outside he was a kind and friendly person, his passion for entomology only surpassed by his love of helping others. In his small and grimy apartment, however, Lucas's uncle was anything but nice. A cold, stern old man, Lucas's uncle hated his life almost as much as he hated his nephew. After being forced into a job that he hates, the man worked hard for little money and large sums of suffering, and he took his anger out on Lucas.

At first, Lucas met his uncle with defiance. Severe capital punishment was enough to snuff out that resistance. Not only was Lucas physically abused, he was also forced to do all the chores that a small, disgusting apartment had to offer. By the time his uncle was teaching Lucas how to rid a building of pests, he was going through life without resistance.

Lucas spent years following his uncle's footsteps, simply because going along with his rules was easier than disobedience. There was no lack of work where they lived, and every encounter with disgusting lurkers made him more and more desensitized to bugs and rodents. However, the lack of care shown by the people around him left a gaping hole in his chest, a void that he tried to fill via cutting. After even the cuts on his skin felt empty, Lucas slowly worked up the courage to mark an end date on his calender.

Lucas had taken a long walk that day, contemplating his harsh, joyless life. He never got a chance to live free of burdens, but he realized he had the option to permanently abandon the struggles that plagued him. As he moved slowly forward on that cold, cloudy day, he walked across the street...only to get smooshed flat by a speeding car.

Later on, Lucas woke up in a strange alley in front of a stranger. They confessed that they were a vampire, and they were distractedly driving along a certain trade route before hitting Lucas. Feeling slightly bad for the mistake, the vampire decided that immortality was a fair way to apologize...only to learn that it was not at all what Lucas was looking for.

 

[Jean Otus]

This character has left the game. - Venus


Name: Matthias Erzabet Simon

Age: 23

Human Occupation: Graduate Student, Archival Clerk

Vampire Lineage: Liaran

Supernatural Ability: Able to view the most recent and powerful memories of a feeding victim if feeding on the neck.

Special skills:
> Encyclopediac knowledge of human history and culture
> A well-established fencer in the University's club league
> An eccentric costumer and former high school actor

Bird of Prey: Hooded Crow

Goals/Motivations: Matthias was subtly excited by the concept of living forever. Being an aspiring historian, it was the ideal position for him to be in. Primarily, he just wants to live out an introverted existence amongst his books. He is most easily lured out of his archives with the promise that he'll get to see something worth writing about.

Signature Items: Horn-rimmed glasses

Personality: To say that Matthias is full of himself is a fantastical understatement. He views himself as nothing short of one of the greatest minds in a slew of subjects from history to English to philosophy. His sole desire seems to be the creation of a truly definitive word on anything he deigns to devote thought to. This, combined with a fanatical dedication to his work has left him with only a small group of friends who keep up with him. Despite his thorny personality, he occasionally attracts admirers who think of him as a Byronic Hero of sorts, where in fact he just proves himself to be a garden variety jerk who takes Neitzche too seriously. In spite of this, he strictly observes tradition, status, and protocol in more formal settings, a lingering effect of an upbringing he has long since divorced himself from. When confronted with someone of suitably impressive qualities, he transforms into a more vacillating character, one who wants to leech power and success off of those above him.

Weakness/Character Flaws:
> Thorny and aloof with most, save for those he acknowledges as his betters
> Often married to his work, to the point of personal exhaustion and starvation
> Obsession with class leads him to discount even his own peers
> Ambitious to a fault

Bio:
Raised in a home of relative luxury, Matthias wanted for very little growing up. He by no means had every desire and whim answered, but he was nonetheless brought up in comfort thanks to the industrious nature and inherent intelligence of his parents. They were strangers in this class of society, his mother and father coming from humble rural backgrounds. It was therefore decided that young Matthias would be a proper member of this petit bourgeoisie world, a proper young gentleman who prized intelligence over other traits. Through many rigorous years of homeschooling, he was taught proper etiquette in addition to his usual studies. He proved a quick learner in both of these fields. It was this very upbringing which would stunt his worldview though; this left him with the fallacious impression that he was better than his peers, one he would carry for the rest of his mortal days. He excelled in the humanities, and in university decided to pursue the path of an academic, putting his talent to use in what he believed to be a duty to leave his mark on intellectual history.

Finally mixing with his peers in university led to more than a few people despising him, though he always seemed to have a professor on his side whenever a dispute came up. Indeed, his etiquette wooed most professors and led them to believe he was a polite young academic if only a little harsh towards his fellow students. The faculty and the students knew two different students, it seemed. He produced excellent work in all his classes, regularly submitting papers to contests and minor publications, making sure the whole world knew about his thoughts on everything from politics to theology. In the world of relationships, though, Matthias was outright destructive. In his undergraduate years, it is said that he spurned every eligible young lady on campus at least once, and had a tendency to sew discord between couples as well. No one was good enough, no relationship poetic enough in his eyes. It should, therefore, be of no surprise that someone, or perhaps many someones, plotted to murder the young scholar.

It is still unknown who orchestrated Matthias's death. Rumor has it that he somehow organized it himself, and claim his death was an almost painstaking recreation of the stabbing of Julius Caesar. Most sensible people write off this idea as a jab at the young scholar's theatrical character and self-centered nature. Regardless of who planned it all out, Matthias was well and truly dead, stabbed fifty-six times in the torso. It would seem, however, that this Icarus had not yet reached his zenith and the bite of a Liaran vampire brought him into a grand new world of undeath. Now a self-important immortal, he will no doubt continue to get on the nerves of anyone and everyone who isn't capable of putting him in his place.

 

[mothspit]

Name: Gwenhwyfar LaVey

Age: 437 (22 in human years)

Occupation: Construction worker for her fathers company, later became Priestess of the valley for many years.

Vampire Lineage: LaVey (was once Sionis)

Supernatural Ability: Can sprout several tendrils of pure fire from different points of the body, using them as weapons or as ropes.

Special skills:
- Extensive knowledge of religious history.
- Has limited knowledge of stone masonry and carpentry.

Bird of Prey: Barn Owl

Goals/Motivations:
- Exact revenge on Adrian for not only stealing her humanity in more ways than one, but also for allowing her to be killed a second time.
- Kill Ajax for being the one who killed her that second time.
For some reason, all the men that have ever loved me have this strange urge to murder me.

Signature Items:
Nothing but the clothes on her back.

Personality:
Growing up without a biological father and under the wing of Archdeacon Adrian Sionis, Gwen has grown to be incredibly pious, believing to be apart of something bigger than herself. Though, Adrian's rampant possessiveness also left her sheltered, depriving her of certain social cues. He deprived me of much more than subtlety, I assure you. Gwen tends to be aloof and coy when speaking as a result. Despite this, she is well aware that her biggest power is her appearance; She has no problem using her looks to get what she wants, though at the cost of her dignity.
Over time, she has learned that, in this life, one has to make difficult choices in order to become stronger. She abandoned the wide-eyed, scared girl batting her eyelashes, playing 'damsel in distress' to survive. That version of herself died many years ago, opting for a more 'femme fatale' persona.
Her new life as an undead has hardened her resolve, and because of this she is no longer afraid of the unknown; She welcomes it. Some would argue she even craves it.
Gwen forms meaningful relationships easily, and in turn shows she can be trusted, but it is her intentions and her morals that usually drive others away. The ones that decide to stick around are the ones she cares for the most, perhaps even to a fault.

Weakness/Character Flaws:
- Refuses to lose sight of something that is important to her, even if it might be objectively wrong or obscene.
- Holds grudges. Can you really blame me?
- Despite being betrayed several times by those she cared about, Gwen is quick to put her faith in those who show even the slightest of interest in her.
- Has no problem flinging herself into harms way if it means obtaining her goal.

• Gwen's resolve
• Ajax's secret
• Florence's Betrayal

• 
  
  Adrian Sionis, under instruction from The Church of The Hierophant, commissions the valley's one and only Cathedral, with an accompanying Abbey. Hundreds of workers roamed the construction site, endlessly and arduously working themselves to death in the sun. Among them, a young human Gwenhwyfar works under the command of her father, who just so happens to be the foreman of the project. Over the course of many years, the Archdeacon himself visits frequently in the night to check the progress. One of these nights, he spots Gwen in her youth, receiving the brunt of her fathers newly received construction orders, barking at her as though she were his dog. Upon seeing this, Adrian's initial reaction was to run over and whisk the poor child away from poverty-- But he withheld himself, realizing that taking a man's only child away would go against his beliefs. Spare the rod, spoil the child.
  
  The next years flew by, and as the construction neared it's conclusion, so did Gwen's young adulthood. Now she was beginning to blossom into a woman, and of all those to catch his eye, none so intrigued Adrian as much as she. Albeit from the shadows, he had witnessed the pain she endured for the better part of her entire life. He had watched her grow from this scruff, crude child, to a beautiful young woman. Weigh, measured, and found wanting, Adrian formed a strange unrequited attachment. Though he knew in his heart it was wrong, he had to have her. But the timing had to be right; With his window closing as the deadline drew ever nearer, he couldn't simply take her away. He needed the perfect opportunity-- And finally, he received precisely what he was praying for. One of the nights of construction, during an intense period of restless work, Gwenhwyfar fell unconscious from dehydration. Ever eager to become her savior, Adrian swooped in immediately, demanding she come live with him at the Abbey until construction was complete, thereby becoming her adoptive father. Though Gwen's father objected to the proposal, by invoking his status as Archdeacon, he was able to receive permission from the Church to bypass the law of the land for a reason he convinced them to be Just.
  
  And so Gwenhwyfar stayed with Adrian for the next several years. By the time the construction of the Cathedral was complete, she was not only the perfect stepdaughter-- Well-versed in many religious scriptures, complimentary to a delightful and pleasant temperament-- but she was also the perfect wife. However the older she grew, so did her silent resentment for the man she now called a father. Once she fully blossomed into her true womanhood, catching the eyes of many within the Valley, that beauty was locked away, meant only for Adrian's eyes within the Abbey walls. She had anything and everything handed to her with no questions asked; Whether it be clothes, jewels, or literature, but such was never enough to fill a void torn open from loneliness. She needed to get out-- To experience this world not just as an adult, but as a woman. Adrian had powerful connections across the globe, and it wasn't long before Gwen overheard news of a certain young, wealthy oil entrepreneur by the name of Ajaxius Dygarian. He was new in town, but had set up his primary business at the North side of the valley, and he was hosting a party for other like-minded, powerful individuals. After several days of intense begging, she managed to convince Adrian to take her along.
  
  The party was the most extravagant thing the sheltered girl had ever witnessed. Though the Abbey was grand, it dulled in comparison to Ajax's collection of art and other valuable trinkets. Adrian, reluctant already, had to keep her on his arm lest she wander into a crowd of hungry men, in more ways than one. It was here where Gwen had her first encounter with Ajax; A simple exchange of pleasantries, and the slightest hint of flirtatious glares. It was easy for her to become charmed with his wealth and his charismatic personality. Adrian caught onto these cues almost immediately, but suppressed the urge to take her home at their very mention.
  
  At some point in the party, as the night wore on, Gwen had managed to tear her arm away from Adrian's side. Ajax was quick to find her, offering his for a quick stroll through the mansions garden. Once the two were alone, Gwen began consciously flirting with Ajaxius, suggesting that, if he were willing, the two could elope in order for her to escape the clutches of her possessive, controlling stepfather. Ajax happily agreed, for there were very little in the valley with a beauty such as hers. Another trophy to add to his collection. Though, both were unaware of the white, snowy owl watching from a distance. Suddenly, Adrian burst from the shadows in a blind rage, demanding that Gwen return him with him to the Abbey that very instant. She refused, and in the same moment, it was as if someone had lifted the the veil of naivete from her eyes. Adrian's intentions for adopting her all those years ago suddenly became clear, and with that revelation, she vowed she would rather die than return with him.
  
  As a swirling concoction of anger and betrayal burned within him, Adrian was more than happy to oblige such a request. With a quickness not even Ajax could stop, the Archdeacon buried his fangs into the woman's throat, tearing it out with a violent, suppressed rage. It's as painful as it sounds. Once the blood had been spilled, and the life faded from Gwen's eyes, only then did reality set in for Adrian. What he had done.. The overwhelming feeling of guilt and regret overtook him with a quickness. He cradled his dead daughter in his arms, and made a last minute decision to turn her; His last shot at spending eternity with the woman he claimed to love.
  
  When the fire returned to her, Gwen wasn't as quick to forgive. To this day, despite a negative hand never being raised against her in her youth, she carries a deep resentment for the man she could now truly call her father.
  
• 
  After she was revived by Adrian, Ajax was the only one who was able to calm her down and help explain what had happened here. Much to her dismay, she was forced to share with him the same living space in order to learn the secrets of her newly found existence; But that didn't stop her from frequenting the Dygarian Mansion in secret, now residing in the arms of Ajax for comfort. His affection was but a crude bandaid, but it was a role he was all to accustomed with-- Soon, he had the desperate, weak fledgling wrapped around his pale finger. Their affair lasted practically a lifetime, and with her under his wing, Gwen learned how to survive; Not with patience, but with blood and tears.
  
  With a prospering relationship under her belt, coupled with the newfound strength to continue living this difficult life, Gwen used her extensive religious knowledge to infiltrate the Church of The Hierophant, becoming it's first and only Priestess. After being raised in the spotlight of charity as the Archdeacons daughter -- Rescued from the clutches of an abusive father -- The community welcomed her with open arms, and it wasn't long before she herself climbed the social ladder of the vampire world.
  
  During this time she still lived with Adrian, and as far as the public was concerned, they were the definition of piety. But behind closed doors, the righteous duo would fight constantly; Though not in blows, but in words, much more painful wounds could be opened. Only driving her further into the arms of the one man that would eventually be her downfall.
• 
  On the night of a particularly awful argument with Adrian, Gwen fled her home at the Abbey to collapse into the arms of the man she loved. Creeping silently into the mansion in an effort to surprise her beau, Gwen discovered Ajax in his office, hungrily feasting on the heart of none other than a fellow vampire. She watched him consume it with ease, as if it was something he had done before. Gwen would come to realize the shocking horror that not only was Ajax turning random humans at will, but the reason for doing so was so that he could become stronger as a result of devouring their hearts-- Allowing him to absorb their memories, as well as their power.
  
  This information shattered her; Though she had no proof, she had the sickening feeling Ajax was planning to devour her heart, too. Unbeknownst to the Forebear, she made the decision to separate herself from him in that moment. It pained her to do so, but the risk of death was too much for her to bear. She spiraled into a deep, dark depression; Without the one person she loved to help her hold herself up, Gwen was now truly alone in the most isolating way possible. Not just in company, but in existence-- The humans of this era, where religion was worth more than gold, would never accept someone like her to live if they were to ever find out.
  
  Dark times breed dark decisions. It didn't take long before she had discovered solace in the arms of another; One of Ramona's kin, a woman by the name of Florence. The two became inseparable over the course of several years, but Florence had her own questionable set of morals. In a drunken stupor, Gwen revealed Ajax's dark secret-- His taste for vampire flesh-- and, to her surprise, Florence suggested she start doing the same. In hindsight, this should have been a red flag for me. During her lowest point, Florence had offered Gwen a way to evolve a second time; To become stronger and surpass those who had this emotional hold on her.
  
  With Florence's help, Gwen began turning kidnapped humans (particularly men that shared a strong resemblance to Ajax and Adrian) to devour their hearts, just like her estranged lover.
  
• 
  Though intense emotions ran high throughout the entire course of Gwen and Florence's relationship, the two had passed the point of no return. With Gwen growing ever stronger in her quest for the hearts, Florence became more and more afraid. Florence didn't realize it, but Gwen had become the one thing she was trying to forget-- A simple reflection into the mind of Ajaxius. They had the same intentions of killing, but for vastly different reasons.
  
  But now Florence realized she was in too deep, and the same fears that plagued Gwen now swirled through her mind as well. How long before Gwen decided to turn on her, too? The choice was clear. Despite having what she considered deep romantic feelings, Florence revealed to Ajax the secret he had thought was so well hidden; Not only did Gwenhwyfar know, but she had been practicing the taboo art as well. Stricken with a series of conflicting emotions, together the Forebear and his new accomplice hatched a plan to take down what they considered to be a rival threat..
  
  ..And overnight, a vicious rumor about the valley's most valued member spread like wildfire. The Archdeacons daughter; The valley Priestess; One of God's anointed was.. a homosexual. If I'm quite honest, I consider myself to be more pansexual than anything. The town's people rallied in the night, storming into the Abbey while she was sleeping and ripping her from her bedsheets. She was brought to the town square, where bundles of sticks and a wooden stake sealed her doom; The last thing she ever saw before being engulfed in flames being Ajaxius, as he knelt by the kindling to light it.
  
  Though Adrian had the power to stop them, he merely sat in his Cathedral, watching the smoke rise from afar..
  
  

It has been well over a hundred years since Gwenhwyfar's second untimely death. With the arrival of the newest batch of newbloods, her soul has been awakened from it's hundred-year sleep as a naturally born vampire. This time, things were going to be different; She would make sure of it.

Signature Items: Pocket watch, pocket notebook, glasses, a revolver (the one he used to kill himself.)

Appearance: (See picture)

Personality: Nolan is a very gentle person, enjoying the very simple things in life, mostly his books, and being the source of comfort for those around him.. This was influenced by his life as an orphan going from house to house and being left with nothing but scraps or barely legible books and broken toys. He has a very open mind to both everyday happenings, principles and sense of humor. He has a bit of a "silver tongue," able to reassure or comfort others with just his words.

Weakness/Character Flaws:
-Not the strongest individual.
-Has a tendency to get lost in thought or go into a state of deep contemplation, cutting off everyone and everything around him.
-His charisma often makes him look like a villain, having the opposite of his word's desired effect.
-Very depressed and will occasionally have depressive episodes where he'll feel unmotivated to do regular activities.

Bio:

Nolan's story could be described simply as "being dealt a bad hand." He never knew his parents, having been left at an orphanage in Ireland as an infant and living the majority of his youth in orphanages. At the age of six, Nolan was taken into his first foster home. His story would play out like many unfortunate stories for foster children: abusive parents, older siblings, left days in inadequate clothing and food. He learned quickly to hide his tears and emotions, lest to make his foster families angry and being called selfish. Over time, he found his only comforts were the discarded or worn books found in the different rooms and closets he was made to live in. Ten years of abuse and living from home to home would ultimately pay off as Nolan was adopted in a well off family. While not abused like in many of the other homes, Nolan's foster father was strict. One day, while skipping his chores, Nolan was found by his father in his study. But unlike the other times he missed his duties and receiving a palm to the face, he found praise and interest as he was reading through books on classical philosophy and mythology. Nolan was enrolled in a private academy and rose through the ranks of his peers, earning awards and accolades in debate and becoming a skilled researcher. But even then, the judgement of his classmates overshadowed his achievements. His upbringing and childhood would often be used against him, being a commoner among pure bloods. The words cut deeper than the actual blows from the bullies.

Nolan would go onto study classical history at university, specializing in ancient and east Asian history and culture. He would become fluent in Chinese and graduate in the top five of his class. Things were looking up for once in his life, until he got out on his own. Shortly after graduation, Nolan's adoptive father would pass away, and thus his estate would be split among his children. While he was given a place among the family's will, the greed and desires of his adoptive siblings and relatives found him being illegally written out or any claim. When he protested, he was set upon by thugs under the employ of the other relatives and tossed out in the street. With barely a penny to his name, Nolan set out to make something of himself. However, poor economic happenings and politic events made finding a job a near impossibility, even more so with a skill set so specific as his. Over time, not even his books could bring him comfort. He attempted to mingle among the community, trying to find possibly a lover or a wife. But at every attempt to start a relationship, he was pushed away for someone wealthy or stronger. This was it, he was a broken man. With what little money he could scrounge over the years, he purchased a pistol and a box of bullets from a local gang. He went out into the hills of his hometown and shot himself.

It was then that a vampire from the Dygarian bloodline discovered his lifeless body and turned him into a newblood. Upon waking up Nolan felt a strong hunger and rage that he could not control. His new blood parent knocked him out and when he awoke again, he was in an unfamiliar bedroom being fed a strange red substance that was delicious to him, like a sweet chocolate dessert. He stayed in this room for five days, only with his thoughts to comfort him until he was released and taken to an unknown location. Nolan's new life, for the better or for worse, has just begun.
