Name: Edward Locarno
Race: Vampire
Age: Looks 21
Height: 6’
Weight: 180lbs
Hair Color: Black Wavy
Eyes: Normally Blue, Black When Thirsty
Personality: Being brought up surrounded by his own kind, Edward was once a cold blooded killer. Having separated himself from his brethren he began to create a personality which has not been seen in many vampires. He values the lives of those around him as more then cattle, however is not willing to risk his own life for them. Enjoying blending in, he would much rather live a secluded life then that in the spotlight being a savior or a villain. When thirsty, Edward begins to battle with his inner instincts, and as the thirst grows he may become uncontrollable and may even kill his best friend due to the thirst.
Physical Description: Any normal person would not be able to see any difference between Edward and any other human. Those who hunt his kind would notice the slightly oversized canines which can become even larger when feeding. Also, when he becomes thirsty, Edward’s eyes turn black as coal. When looking at his human features, his hair is black, short, and wavy. His eyes when not hungry are an attractive bright blue. His body is muscular to a point but is not intimidating to look at which often gives him an advantage to those normal humans who go looking for a fight against someone smaller then them.
Weapons:
Fangs: When presented with danger, Edwards Canine teeth extend slightly and present a formidable weapon if he is able to latch on. These are equivalent to slightly stronger then average bone in what they are capable of piecing and can be stopped through the use of minor armor or enhanced skins. However they are also his way of feeding so if they break the skin blood can then be drained from the body of his victim.
Daggers: He also owns two twin daggers. One encrusted with an emblem of the sun, which for many is thought to be the enemy of the vampire when in fact he is unaffected by the natural rays of the sun. The other has drops etched in the blade and hilt which could be mistaken as rain drops but are actually drops of blood, a vampires lifeline. He calls these twin daggers Essence. They are both around eight inches and have a slight curve to them. The hilt is made of leather as is the holders attached to his waist. The blades themselves are made of steel.
Armor: None at the moment.
Skills:
Enhanced Speed: Being a vampire has its bonuses. As long as he is not weak with blood lust, Edward has increased speed over that of a normal human. He can run slightly faster, react slightly quicker, and in general out maneuver a human being. His actual speed increase is roughly 1.5 times that of a normal human giving him a slight edge but nothing that can be countered.
Enhanced Strength: Vampiric blood also gives Edward an advantage when it comes to strength. Although he may not look overly muscular his body is able to perform at a heightened state compared to many humans around him. The actual effect is roughly 1.5 times that of a normal human much like that of his enhanced speed. However if he hasn’t fed recently he may in fact be weaker then a normal human.
The Thirst: This may not be seen as a skill but must be mentioned. As he continues to go without feeding on blood whether it be human or animal, Edward gets weaker. On top of getting weaker her also starts to lose control over himself and may result in feeding on humans close to him or even his best friend. He tries to avoid this side of him as much as he can.
History: Born as a human, Edward remembers flashes of his past. A cabin in the Corone forest which he has yet to find again, fearing it has long since been destroyed. He remembers the face of his parents but their names elude him after the years that have past since his transformation. The only large detail of his human life that remains in tact is the night of the attack. The horrifying screams of his mother as his father was butchered in front of them attempting to save his family. Then came the death of his mother as they fed on her, draining her with savagery. Finally their attention came to him and slowly they crowded around the 5 year old kid clutching the hem of his mothers bloodied dress.
The next 16 year passed with days on end of training and living amongst the vampires. The leader, whose name was Stephan Volcom took a shining to Edward and made sure he was trained to the best of his human ability and kept healthy until the day he would join them at his peak of physical health. Watching the vampires feeding on humans always sent chills down Edward’s spine and made him resent that fact that one day soon he would be joining the likes of them in their cult.
While sleeping one night, he was awoken by the cold hands he knew were a vampires. Being dragged and pushed forward he was soon in the alter room he has seen the elders use to feed on the humans. Eyes wide he glanced at the fanged faces that passed him, wondering if they were about to feed on him deciding he wasn’t worth it. Being thrown to his knees in front of Stephan he looked up into the cold calculating eyes of the alpha vampire of sorts. Smiling, he lift Edward to his feet and before Edward could even blink the fangs were sinking into his neck. The thought of death passed through his mind but soon the fangs were gone and the intense pain of the venom coursing through his veins was all that mattered to Edward. It made every inch of his body burn as he crumpled to the flood and screamed in pain as it continued to work its way to his heart.
The next weeks were torture on mind and body for Edward. The pain from the transformation was gone but the burning in his throat began as soon as the venom stopped. He longed for blood, blood from a human to be exact. Flashes of watching countless humans being drained flashed before his mind as he remained locked in a room with a woman chained to the wall on the other side. She wept almost constantly as he fought to contain the hunger which was threatening to overflow. Finally what seemed like years but was merely a week Edward caved and drained the young female of every drop of blood in her body. He felt his strength and speed as soon as the blood entered his body. Memories of her lifeless body continue to haunt him as he remembers being the one to take her life.
After feeding the elders released him figuring he was ready to join their society. Edward, however had other plans. Sneaking into the elders alter, Edward took the two symbolic daggers which were named Essence from the display case to the right of the sacrificial altar. However before he could get out of the sacred castle like building which was hidden deep in the Corone woods he ran into Stephan. “I’m leaving, please do not try to stop me.” As he spoke, Edward could hear his own voice tremble as he looked into the cold eyes of the vampire which had control over his life for the last 16 years and killed his parents.
“I cannot let you leave.” Stephan’s voice was as cold as it always was. His eyes flitted to the daggers clutched in Edward’s hands and reached out to take the twin daggers from his newest vampire. Hissing, Edward lunged forward, striking with the daggers, leaving a blazing cut across Stephan’s cheek. Before his elder could recover, Edward vanished out the door of the Altar room and quickly escaped from the castle before anyone knew what had happened.
Escaping the castle was only part of the difficulties which lay ahead of Edward. Refusing to kill another human for his own feeding purposes, Edward now must hunt animals which leave him less filled then those who feed on humans. He remains an enemy of his former ‘family’ and they hunt his every movement in hopes to one kill their insubordinate as well as to reclaim the twin daggers Essence. Keeping to the shadows, Edward longs to find a reason to exist other then a bringer of death, and also prays to whatever gods may exist in this world that he may one day be given his chance to get revenge for his mother and father which are fading faces in his past.
