Powers/abilities -

Supernatural Speed: European vampires are incredibly fast and move in a blur.

Supernatural Strength: European Vampires are stronger than most species of vampires but it also depends on their age, as they get stronger as they grow older.

Supernatural Agility: European Vampires possess super-human agility. They have shown that they can move quickly, jump very high, climb, and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion. Vampires can jump with their super speed too.

Supernatural Senses: European Vampires have extremely keen senses of hearing, sight, smell, and taste that far exceed those of humans. They can hear whispered conversations, even ones in far of buildings and on phones, though most vampires typically learn how to tune out most ambient noises when it's not necessary to hear them. European Vampires can also smell blood from several meters away, and see in total darkness. These senses improve and grow stronger with age and experience as well. Their senses of taste are also enhanced, allowing them to detect the presence of drugs, alcohol, or even what the person ate in someone's blood.

Regeneration: European Vampires recover tissue from any form of physical damage to their bodies within seconds, though they still feel the pain of a wound before it heals. They can snap their bones back into place after they have been broken and have been seen to fully recover from gunshots, stab wounds, and torso impalement very quickly, so long as they had consumed a regular diet of human blood prior to the injury.

Healing Blood: European Vampires are able to heal humans by feeding them their blood, it will not turn them. The only way for them to turn is if they die while having the vampire blood in their system. If a drinks fresh blood from a vampire, a psychic and emotional bond is created. The vampire will be able to sense the location and emotions of the human.

Progeny Link: The one who made a vampire has a special link to those they create and can sense any pain or duress the progeny undergoes, and know when a progeny has died. The maker can "call" their progeny by saying their name out loud, causing the progeny to become aware their maker is calling out for them. The progeny experiences a shiver, and may be able to tell where their maker is. Lastly a maker can force their progeny to do anything they want, as long as they make what they say a direct order.

Immortality: They have the potential to live forever without aging.

Enhanced Emotions: European Vampires experience emotions more powerfully than humans. Emotions like love, joy, and happiness are magnified for vampires, allowing them to live life more intensely. This ability allows vampires to feel emotions at their peak regardless of their age.

Emotional Control: European Vampires have the supernatural ability to remove or dull their emotions by "turning off" or "switching off" their humanity, which is directly connected to their emotions. Doing so allows them to block out their more negative emotions, such as fear and guilt, allowing them to feed and kill without remorse, go against any opponent without fear, and relieve themselves of painful feelings such as grief, loss, depression, and shame. A vampire without their emotions is far more calculating and direct than one who keeps them on. However, the vampire can become a remorseless killer, and are almost unrecognizable from the person they truly are, as blocking out negative emotions also causes their positive emotions to become dulled or nonexistent as well. Vampires are capable of turning their humanity back on and bringing back their emotions, but it is difficult as a result of the fact that they will be bombarded with all of their repressed emotions in addition to the guilt of anything they did without their humanity (such as killing or torturing innocent people or loved ones) with enhanced intensity.

Mind Compulsion: European Vampires have the ability to influence and control thoughts, emotions, and behavior and can alter or erase memories by eye contact. They are not able to compel other vampires or any other kind of creature.

Vulnerabilities -

Animal Blood: Animal blood, while somewhat satisfying a European Vampire's hunger and sustaining their undead life, will make the vampire considerably weaker than they would be if they had drank human blood, causing their physical abilities to be inferior to a human-blood-consuming vampire, making them heal much more slowly, and making their compulsion less effective.

Excess Blood: If a European Vampire drinks too much blood, they will display alcohol intoxication-like qualities (such as euphoria, confusion, stupor, etc). However the amount of blood needed for this to happen becomes larger the older the vampire is.

Hunger: A European Vampire has a strong blood lust that they have to fight to control; most cannot.

Broken Neck: Breaking a vampire's neck will not kill them, but it will render them in a death like state for varying amounts of time, depending on the diet and age of the person in question.

Decapitation: Dismembering or manually removing the head of a European Vampire will result in instant and permanent death.

Desiccation: European Vampires who abstain from blood for extended amounts of time will eventually desiccate and mummify.

Heart Extraction: Removing the heart of a vampire will result in permanent death. Vampires have the strength to plunge their hands right through the flesh of humans, allowing them to punch their hand through the thorax of a person and pull out their heart. If it is a vampire who has been subjected to this, then they will desiccate upon their death, causing their bodies to become a grey, dry husk with their vampiric veins exposed all over their body.

Sunlight: Sunlight and UV rays burn vampires on contact, and prolonged exposure will cause them to burst into flames and die. However, this weakness can be mitigated by the use of a piece of jewelry enchanted with a specific protection spell by a witch for a particular vampire, though it requires the vampire to wear the jewelry at all times.

Vampire Bloodline: If the alpha or one of the vampires the alpha himself turned dies, then any vampire they turned and the generations after will die as well.

Wood: Wounding a European Vampire with a wooden weapon such as wooden bullets will incapacitate them, and it will take longer for them to heal their injuries than if the wounds were caused by any other substance. Stabbing a vampire through the heart with a wooden stake will result in instantaneous and permanent death. It's possible for a vampire to build up a resistance to the effects of wood, but it's not possible for them to be fully immune.

Silver: Any contact with silver will burn the skin of the European Vampire it touches.

Personality: Before being turned into a vampire, Rafael was a smart man who was hungry for knowledge. It's what led him to his maker, who ultimately would turn him. The transition heightened everything about Rafael, not just his senses but even bits of his personality. He became even more flirtatious and loved to allure both men and women alike. But with that came the bad as well, his commitment issues were also magnified and he could never stay in a relationship long. Settling down for actual "ever" was a scary thought, and it was something that would send him packing more often than not.

Already being an incredibly intellectual person, this was also enhanced. Rafael was able to think even more clearly and precisely. He always preferred using his wits and knowledge in a fight than his physical prowess; even though he can do both. Rafael's guilty conscience over the things he has done has ended with him turning his emotions off. No humanity meant no pain. Now just mostly a monster, he does what he wants to and he doesn't care who gets hurt.

Positives (At Least 3):
✧ Flirty
✧ Resourceful
✧ Smart

Negatives (At Least 3):
✦ Manipulative
✦ Commitment Issues
✦ Guilty Conscience

History:

Rafael was born to a very important family within Brazil. His father was one of the leaders within the Men of Letters stationed within the country. At a very early age he was taught all kinds of things about the supernatural world. He was trained in aspects of both knowledge and fighting but Rafael was never much for the physical training. He'd complain to his father, who would tell him to suck it up and do as he was told. He told his son that one day he'd be taking his spot, and he had to be ready. His little sister was taught things as well, but because she was neither the oldest or a male she was not expected to take over her father's position. This hurt the girl and Rafael understood, as he didn't even want to take over. At least, not as bad as his little sis did.

As Rafael continued to grow older, he hungered for knowledge. He would read everything he could in the Men of Letter's bunker and went on expeditions to find more knowledge. He would go on digs and dives to find things lost in time; he loved it. When his father became ill, it was time for him to take over. This also meant that he would have to run things within the branch of his organization and stop going on his little adventures. Of course, that didn't mean he would listen.

At the age of 30 he tracked down a vampire named Malloy. He was old, and claimed to know a lot of things about his species. Rafael met with him, interviewed him, and thought that it was all going well until the monster forced his blood into the man's mouth. He told him that he loved the "pretty ones" and couldn't let Rafael go. He snapped the Brazilian's neck and when he came to he was laying on the cold wood floor. A fire was going in a nearby fireplace and he heard crying. Rafael looked over to see his sister tied and gagged. He sat up quickly, only for Malloy to hit him back to the ground. There was a struggle, as the vampire got on top of him and forced him blood from a cup. Rafael tried to spit it out, not drink it but it was no use, some of it went down and because of that- his transition was complete.

Malloy laughed and stood and Rafael looked at his sister, eyes tearful as he saw the disappointed look in her eyes. "Kill her." Was all he heard and Rafael shook his head. "No.. No, you're the one I'm going to---" But before the newly turned vampire could finish, Malloy snapped. "KILL HER, THAT'S A DIRECT ORDER!" And Rafael shut up, he shook his head. He knew of how this type of vampire worked and he raised to feet as his sister began to scream into her gag. Rafael slowly walked over to her, tears freely falling. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry." And just like that, the vampire lunged forward, onto the floor and drank his sister dry.

This would all be the start to Rafael's life as a vampire. He would follow Malloy around, doing whatever he wanted because he had to. Malloy would eventually begin to kidnap females that he thought was beautiful, or rather he would make Rafael do it for him. His maker would use these girls for whatever he saw fit.. Maids, chefs, or just for sex. Then when he got bored he would turn them lose or kill them, and the latter was the usual. Unable to handle all of this, at some point Rafael turned his humanity off. One of the last girls Rafael was ordered to take was a girl by the name of Charlie Harrington. He watched as his master turned her, but without his emotions he didn't care.

Now he has woken up within Zeppelin City... Alone. Wait, that's right.. Alone. Was he finally free of Malloy?
