Abilities
+ Retractable fangs: Vampires possess a set of retractable fangs. Their teeth are superhumanly strong and can rip open a human's neck and leave huge bite marks on the corpse of the victim it has fed on.
+ Enhanced hearing: Vampires are capable of hearing even the best of a human's heart. It's estimated this range extends to at least half a mile away from where they are. This also means it is heightened in other applications, but the prime of this ability's strength is geared towards the pumping of blood.
+ Night-vision: Vampires have the ability to see in the dark. For Jeremy this ability is slightly lessened in strength, but that doesn't mean he's incapable of it. It's simply not as strong as a fully fledged vampire's would be.

+ Enhanced strength: A vapire's strength is superior to that of a human. Younger vampires experience and increase in their physical strength, such as being able to lift heavy objects ando overpower grown adult humans, while older vampires can overpower their own makers and other creatures. Jeremy, being both a very young vampire and not quite a fully transitioned one, is nowhere near as strong as elder ones but he is significantly stronger than a human, in tandem with the fact that he was rather strong before turning.
+ Enhanced speed: Vampires can move at a greater speed than humans and can even outpace vehicles. It's possible that their speed, like their physical strength, can increase over time and with age.
+ Enhanced agility and stamina: Vampires possess amazing agility. They can climb up walls and jump off buildings without hurting themselves, and have greater reflexes than humans. They also do not tire easily, and therefore are capable of superhuman feats without difficulty.
+ Enhanced smell: Vampires can track the scent of a human's blood over long distances. This, like much of their other senses, is something that improves with age. Jeremy himself is not exceedingly strong with this ability, but the fact remains that "once a vampire has your scent, it's for life" as John Winchester once put it. So he could probably still track a scent, he just can't really smell you coming necessarily.
+ Invulnerability:
+ Immortality:
+ Stealth: Vampires are often shown sneaking up on their victims- even experienced vampire hunters- without making a sound.
WEAKNESSES:
- Dead Man's Blood: The blood from the recently deceased acts as a sort of poison to vampires, working to incapacitate them briefly.
- Serious injury and decapitation: While not capable of being killed by serious physical injuries, vampires are still susceptible to them. With enough human blood the process of healing can be sped up but it will still take quite a bit of time to do so. Jeremy, since he does not drink human blood, would have to heal the very slow way. That said, however, decapitation is indeed lethal to vampires, as they cannot regrow limbs not heal anything that would require amputation. Headshots are indeed endurable without dying, so long as it doesn't blow their head off, but it does incapacitate them for some time.
- Angel's smiting/Angel blades/Michael's lance: These weapons are capable of killing pretty much any creature and being, with the exception of very few, but vampires are no exception to this and can in fact be killed by either of these angelic methods.
- Other beings that can overpower and/or kill vampires include: Demons, leviathans, primordial entities, and nephilim.
- The Colt: There are only 5 things in existance that this gun cannot kill. That said, it can kill anything else ranging from humans to any monster out there, which includes vampires and their alpha.
- Sunlight: While not lethal, sunlight does cause vampires pain like that of a sunburn and as a result they are nocturnal. Other types of light can also cause discomfort, since they have increased sensitivity to bright light.
- Scent-blocking mixture: Saffron, skunk cabbage, and trillium tossed into a fire/dusting oneself with the ashes of the mixture masks a human's scent from a vampire and can even cover another vampire's scent. Only older vampires with stronger senses may be capable of overcoming this.
- Vamptonite: Named by Dean Winchester, it was discovered that human blood with DNA altered by Leviathan corn syrup is lethal to vampires.
- Anti-vampire device/Vampire irradiation gun: Both of these are weapons developed but the British Men of Letters to irradicate vampires. The former releases a gas, through a combination of technology and magic, that is poisonous to vampires; and the latter is a gun that, through a combination of technology and magic, irradiates vampires and reorders their DNA to make their own blood toxic enough to kill them.
- The Alpha Call: Vampires are unable to resist the call of the Alpha Vampire; this, meaning, the very first vampire that gave 'birth' to he rest.
- Bloodlust: As a vampire, the hunger for blood is something that is primally strong and difficult to ignore, if not impossible. And it's something that is especially strong and difficult to ignore for Jeremy, as he has never fed on human blood. However, he does feed on animals to satiate the cravings and such.

History: Remy was born in the fall of 1982, to a single mother in Frankfort, Kentucky. Susan's husband at the time, Jeremy's father, wasn't keen on the idea of starting a family but he'd stuck around in the early years at least nonetheless. However those first 5 or 6 years of Remy's life became filled with yelling that his mother tried her best to limit and keep him out of. There were many times when she'd had to delay going to get her son up after he'd woken up from a nap crying or go in to comfort him back to sleep in the middle of the night just because she had to clean herself up and sometimes the mess that was left by her arguments with her husband. It wasn't long after that however that, after he'd been arrested for driving under influence, she got help and filed a restraining order against him. Within a couple years Susan divorced Patrick, and moved to Louisville, Kentucky, to start a better life for her son and herself.
By the time Jeremy reached middle school, his mother worked 3 part-time jobs to keep money coming in for them to pay the bills and send him to school. Remy would sometimes have to go to work with her after being picked up from school, or even walk to the diner she worked at depending on the day. It wasn't always the most fun, and some days–when the bullying got bad–he hated the way things were. But those were the days that Susan put her annoyances and irritations away as well as she could and did her best to cheer him up or teach him a new way to look at things. 'Never hurt somebody if they ain't hurting you. Use your words as much as you can, Remy, not many boys know how to compete with that'.
Many of the lessons his mother taught him, Remy has never forgotten and it pushed him to ace his classes as best he could, studying hard whether that be academically or about self-defense, so that when he did need to actually fight physically? It was enough to keep kids off him for a while.
Soon his mother's reminders became second nature, even when she kept reminding him nonetheless. Growing into highschool Remy was a great student, and didn't mind the days that he had to walk home from school so his mama could keep working. He had his own job to go to most of the time anyway; Taco Bell employee by day, arena fighting my night, it was a good way to make money and managed to help him vent any frustrations he had and it made a good outlet that way. But his bond with her was no less close, if not closer, and he'd even started to branch out a little more and explore some of the highschool things like parties, hanging with friends at the malls, and even dating. He couldn't always pay for much but he was more than happy to be the designated responsible friend or designated driver if need be. That though, was when he started discovering maybe he didn't just like girls; afterall highschool is a learning, growing, changing time. In fact his first time with a guy was possibly the one of the biggest big discoveries he had so far in his life but while his mother had been supportive him just as much as she had ever been, students he went to school with weren't necessarily as kind about it. He tried not to let the jerk classmates get to him, but once again he had an obstacle to overcome and that's exactly what he did just like before….even if he wound up in detention afterwards for it.
But nevertheless Jeremy's schooling ended successfully upon graduation and while he never went to college, he was lucky enough for his boyfriend–soon to be fiance–Adam to go to college only a few hours drive in the next state over. However this new chapter in Remy's life came to such an abrupt fork in the road when he was attacked by his mother, who turned out to be a ghoul.
What was meant to simply be a late night surprise of driving her home for a family movie night since he'd gotten the night off, was turned into a night filled with sheer fear as he found himself dragged off to become the ghouls snack. Remy hadn't been, or at least hadn't felt like, a bad fighter for some years now but when the ghoul knocked him out to get him pulled elsewhere, that was a first for him.
But that didn't stop him from finding a way to get free and try to escape and that…unfortunately was how he stumbled across his actual mother's actual dead body. He may have been caught by the ghoul but this time? Remy was ready. Being an experience fighter these days, the man fought for…well, his life and wound up bashing the monster's head in enough to kill her. It wasn't easy on some level internally but he was pissed, hurting, and sure as hell wasn't dying then and there.
After that, Jeremy had a hard time forgetting what he'd seen, and soon enough he'd started looking into the world of the supernatural, seeking out people who could help him learn. He got lucky when he met a man in a bar that knew the reigns of the hunting world, and sought out some advice from him after watching the guy take out a vampire that had started up commotion. It was a secret life that Jeremy led, and it was really a good thing that he had the coverup of his arena fighting so that whenever his fiance was around, it would be slightly easier to answer questions. He and his new hunter friend, of sorts, became good acquaintances at least though, enough that Jeremy introduced him to Adam, after the two had recently been engaged. They became good friends and Remy liked the life he had going, truth be told. Up until the night his fiance was killed by one of three vampires, walking out of a bar altogether. Adam had been the first to be killed, with Jeremy coming close but he got lucky when his friend saved his ass by decapitating the thing. Jeremy took a big hit, having not been very prepared once he saw his fiance being attacked. His focus had been to save and protect Adam, but in the process of killing the culprit, Jeremy was then attacked by one of the remaining two and he took quite a bit of damage in the scuffle.
Soon after he passed out from the bloodless, waking up to find out he had been turned, but accidentally swallowing some of the vampires blood. And that, alone, was what drove a wedge between Jeremy and his hunting buddy. Remy was given the choice of taking care of the job himself, or his friend would do it for him. Saying that he would handle it himself–granted after a brief argument in the hospital that had nurses and security having to be called to break it up–Jeremy disappeared not long after and the two haven't seen each other since.
Even now, he's been diving further into hunting, looking for the runaway vampire and possibly the rest of it's nest to exact his revenge for Adam, and searching for a way to reverse his vampiric curse.

RP Sample:
There may be a certain irony that came with the song playing through the speakers, turned up enough to be heard over the wind coming through the open windows but Sarah was oblivious to it. The blonde sang each word right along with the music as KISS's 1984 hit Heaven's on Fire played from the cassette she'd picked for this particular drive. She wasn't in the mood for relying on her music app, nor did she want to station surf, and this? This was hitting the spot. It was definitely a pick-me-up that she could never say no to, and with the job she was going into? She was probably going to need whatever lucky feeling that tape deck could offer her. Not to say that she wasn't a good hunter, because she was, but the headline she'd followed was of victims being drained of all the blood on their body. Now, at first glance yes that sounded like an average job.
But she was in for it, she simply had yet to discover that fact. Regardless, Sarah parked her car outside the home of the first witness she'd tracked down, to get a firsthand story from them. Taking one last glance over the newspaper clipping she'd printed out and the address she'd written down, one glance up towards the house number was all that stood between her getting out of the car and nudging it's door closed after a moment.
"If I had half the money these fuckers must be rolling in..." She muttered to herself, snorting lightly as she shook her head before heading up the path to the front door. It was certainly a very nice house, at least nicer than she could ever afford, hell they even had a sprinkler system in the front yard. The epitomy of suburbia in her minds eye. But with her knuckles connecting with the door in a short knock that was just gentle enough to be distinguished from a cop knock, considering she was going with the journalist cover, the spunky blonde pushed down her judgement for the moment in favor of a friendly smile when the home owner opened the door. "Can I help you?" Came the man's response and Sarah, recognizing the slight tiredness of loss in his voice, let her gaze soften a bit.
"Apologies sir, I don't mean to trouble ya. I uh..I heard what happened, and I'm very sorry for your loss. My boss at the Daily is pushing for this story, though...of you wouldn't mind answering a question or two?" Play the sympathy card. Displace the image of being the asshole. It tended to work, not that she didn't care, because deep down she did; it was the reason she'd showed up to look into the case in the first place. But the strategy was there nonetheless, subtle as it was, and much to her favor, it was successful.
A few minutes later the woman was leaving again, a small wave and polite smile in place as she took her leave with a sympathetic goodbye before she was sliding back into her car letting the smile turn onto a slow exhale as she shut the car door. "Well then. Time to hit the books or peek at the morgue." Talking to herself as a way of thinking aloud, her key found the ignition bringing the engine to life and she leaned back in her seat with the decision made up in her mind. "Books it is, Google the shit out of this before somebody calls me an occultist....even if they technically wouldn't be wrong." Snorting at the thought, she shook her head with a smirk and put the 1970 Duster into gear, pulling onto the road more with her motel room as her destination this time, humming along with her mixtapes yet again. And well….maybe a stop at the nearest burger joint wouldn’t hurt either, because who says coffee and something greasy isn’t the best brain food?
