NAME!?! - darius valentine
NICK NAMES!?! - none
AGE!?! - twenty-nine
SEXUALITY!?! - bisexual
GENDER!?! - male
SPECIES!?! - vampire
POWER!?! -Darius has transformed himself to be a powerful humanoid so to properly protect and remain dominant among his people. At first, he appears to rely heavily on the natural abilities granted. The basics such as acute scent, hearing and sight are all made useful. He does not need a special ability in order to become powerful. But, someone will be able to take note of his resistance to pain. Both mentally and physically his body is able to create something that helps him endure. Making him seem almost apathetic despite horrid occurrences. Darius's strength is also admirable, as well as speed and the ability to remain flexible despite the bulk he carries. And though this may be deemed as plain and ordinary to most, Darius is able to use it to his advantage and in multiple ways. Why rely on some sort of trick when you can simply subdue an enemy through physical efforts alone? It is much more satisfying, truly. The only problem with this is that once someone goes too far to try to disturb or cause Darius pain, his feral nature as a vampire may become terribly obvious. His intelligence fades and is replaced by primal instincts. This is only temporary, but, the results from this are endless.
JOB!?! - leader of the vampires
CANON/ORIGINAL!?! - canon
PLAY BY!?! - sephiroth from final fantasy
LIKES!?!
- peaceful, beautiful settings - darius enjoys to preserve positivity. he relishes the sights and scents of undisturbed areas. that which is natural and handled with care is beautiful in its own way. everything about such settings must please his senses to truly win his approval.
- silence - a creature who often slinks about, when no sound reaches his ears, it leaves him settled and even drowsy. a layer of calm will come over him once all noise is absent.
- his people - darius, as a leader and someone who represents a large population of vampires, has come to adore those who follow and trust him. but, still, he remains respectable and serious when it interacting with others.
- children - he adores children of any age. admiring their spirit, energy, innocence and youth while it remains intact.
- obedience - as a ruler, he expects this. darius wishes to be granted submissive behavior in response to his rule and position.
- blood - need anyone say more? as a vampire, this is the most delectable substance. and humans who store such food within their bodies make for suitable prey. and like any predator, he will dine at will once they are in his grasp.
DISLIKES!?!
- the rebellious and impatient - he must be patient, of course, with these breed of people. personalities of different kinds are fine, yet, he does not tolerate those who wish to flaunt their individuality and display such outrageous behavior.
- impolite mannerisms - interrupting ones speech should not be done offhandedly. and to speak when your words carry no true meaning or worth is just as time consuming and wasteful. also, the usual manners are expected. a simple show of appreciation or respect brings along an excellent first impression.
- loud, obnoxious noises - anything too high pitched or loud will bother him greatly, preventing him from becoming comfortable.
- sunlight - he is very sensitive to the light. his pale complexion not allowing for such an intense form of energy to shine down upon him without complications. he can survive it, but, it will burn the outer regions of his flesh and reek havoc on his senses. the healing surprisingly slow and rendering him weak. he avoids it like death itself.
- hunters - a loathsome occupation for humans to take up. darius isn't one of the many who dislikes humans as a whole. he usually views them as a food source of sorts. but, he isn't prejudice. building up enough tolerance so to not make poor decisions.
- the heat - he prefers dark and cool areas. his living quarters are always kept at a comfortable temperature. the shades and curtains covering the windows at all times and the warmth that attempts to seep in is kept out.
GOALS!?! -
- restore and preserve peace - darius has agreed with many others that hunters are a danger to their species. but, he still views humans more as a resource and not as equals. meaning, he will move to take action when everything is organized and at ready and when there is enough reason.
- secure the safety of many - he, being someone of his position, is intent on keeping many below him safe. even if they are simple citizens, they are, in the end, his if they willingly regard him as their leader.
FEARS!?! -
- being trapped underneath the sun - it doesn't kill him, that's the problem. but, the pain is horrid. the feeling of his skin burning in response and that heat. in the end after too long of this torture he will curl up in a ball, unable to do more other than crumple and further endure.
- failing his people - the embarrassment, the disappointment, the shame. defeat is able to sting his very heart and cause him to pause entirely. thus, being responsible for the loss of many is one reason why he is so careful with every single life that he can control.
STRENGTHS!?!
- hand-to-hand combat - focusing his abilities on perfecting his physical attributes, he evolved himself when it comes to the art of striking the foe without use of a weapon. his way of fighting is basic yet efficient, and he has no real style.
- swordsman ship - the thought of handling a sword has always appealed to darius. he developed this interest and had a sword crafted to suit his taste. long, yet, deadly and precise all the same.
- endurance - pain both mental and physical can be endured. everything is dulled, including his emotions, this one power assisting him time and time again.
WEAKNESS!?!
- the day - darius, as was mentioned before, is weak against sunlight. but, during the time when the sun has made itself known he grows drowsy and less alert.
- temperament - he has patience, but it only goes so far. being taunted, or being aware that he may be beaten will cause him to shift his focus more often. his movements much more rushed which leaves him unprepared and sloppy.
- stubborn - darius can be single minded at times. very unwilling to alter his way of accomplishing tasks and so on. he will listen, but, he will not completely take note of everything that he does not agree with.
OVERAL!?!Darius has molded himself so to fit comfortably into such a position. He is fully aware of the responsibilities that come with such a chore and handles it to the best of his ability. He seems like someone who carefully maneuvers himself. His mannerisms proper and his overall behavior meant to bring along a good first impression. Darius prefers others to be proper in his presence, and treats every important manner seriously. It displeases him if everything does not go as plan when he expects them to be fulfilled if the task at hand is simple. Thankfully, he is not plagued with greed and the wealth brought upon him. He enjoys simple pleasures, yet, if coming upon something he desires, he will work hard to obtain this object. Darius has mastered the art of communication. Often taking in mind his body language and how his appearance should draw ones attention. As a man of his appearance, tall stature and build, he carries himself with the utmost dignity. Pride and confidence displayed once he is in a public setting. Darius, working hard to mold his public image, will not allow his emotions to play a major role in his behavior. They are cast aside so to hide his bemusement, surprise or any sort of vivid negativity. As a male, of course, he is naturally arrogant. His swagger assisting in his dominant role.
Despite all that simple pleasures has to offer Darius has refined taste. Wine, decoration, clothing. He has had years to learn of these objects and fully appreciate them. He does not need them, and he can go without them. But, why should he? A want is a want, after all. Darius has come to appreciate his position as a leader because of what comes with it. Wealth that he had not been granted before is in his reach. But, he spends it sparingly, and does not waste such funds on that alone. Darius is much too intelligent to be wasteful, but, it is a pity to be so conservative in that way. As with relationships, he does not seek out friends or enemies. They have to come to him instead and wish to form such a bond. Being neutral is what he stands for, not wishing to take sides of any kind and instead only follows his own path. Darius has a few things he sees as precious and is determined to keep close to himself. Family, being one of these. Adopted or not, they are his. And such a possessive nature that has been fitted into him causes him to treat any mate he takes like someone as precious as any other.

FINALLY!?! -Darius fate had him start as a mere human. His mother someone who managed a flower shop and his father set a distance away. He never knew the man, only adapting to the life of having a single parent and a sibling. Darius was a bright child, but, was overlooked. Home-schooled, he never developed the interest of being overly friendly with someone of his age. Despite his mother's attempts to make him social and suggesting public education, the boy seemed to be quite content with what he was already offered. Actually he was quite ambitious, but he did not seem to take interest in the many occupations of the human world. Nor did he warm to the idea of advancing his knowledge through education. And his mother grew worried with his lack of interest. Not wishing for her son to not be a productive member of society and eventually an success. Having high hopes, she started to become more firm when expressing her views as Darius soon became an adolescent. But, he was apathetic to her many opinions and attempts to indulge him in these uninteresting ideals. He soon looked past his family, not caring for the bloodline he carried and whatever else stored it in his body. After he became an adult, he did not interact with them often.
He had few friends, but, the ones he did interact with he would often allow around himself. Simple trips to the bar as they became adults were pleasant. Conversations and the basic mingling were just as nice. Life was ordinary, and he was content. But, soon, he became bemused, and soon after, curious about the information of the este. The place where he was settled did not carry much importance and events and happenings were not common. And these rumors that reached them aroused excitement as well as fabrications within society. Darius was curious, but, in the end, concluded these stories as nothing more than mere fiction. And moved about his town without caution. Crime was rare. And there was always a certain layer of peace. This left most unprepared. During a simple walk while the sun was replaced by the moon, Darius became an unfortunate victim. Targeted and used as a meal to a predator of the night. He did not and does not remember this attack in detail. Only that it did happen and he was in pain a few moments after. He was a large male, his body fit and lean. He was able to endure due to this. That, coupled with his stubborn behavior also played a role in his survival. A short way from his home, Darius managed to find his way back to his apartment. His vision blurred and sticky, red liquid staining his shirt and strands of hair.
Weary, he was only able to close to door behind him. Unable to properly communicate, his words indecipherable gibberish, and his body becoming cold, Darius simply lay on the floor and rested. His mind unable to process enough information so to will him to return to his bed. When he awoke, he felt much better. Improved, actually. The ache from before gone, and himself invigorated and eager to become mobile. It was a pleasant surprise at first. But shock came afterward as he looked at his own image in the mirror. His skin horribly pale. His canines sharpened and curved. Cringing at his own image, Darius could only stand there stunned. Fate had truly averted itself, his path as uncertain as before. He would need to seek help, but who would willingly assist a creature such as himself? Darius did not know at first, until he thought of his many relationships. Perhaps his mother or brother would help him in his time of need? True, he had neglected them. But, he would have to risk it. He contacted his brother, making sure to remain vague while not revealing his current position. An este would communicate with other este. An obvious answer? But, was it so simple? It took him days to adapt. And, there was a hunger that gnawed at him steadily. Pain within his stomach that alerted him to his need. Normal food would not suffice. It was like a meal without salt or the proper seasons. The taste much more bland than it had been.
Not the one whose moral was exactly high, he was willing to do anything to stop the pain that caused him to suffer. He searched for an answer through the literature he stored within his home and found it with ease. Despite it being common knowledge by now, Darius wanted to confirm what was spoken. Finding no other remedy to the hunger he simply left his home during the night, discovered a meal and dined as he wished. It was his first kill, and not his last. Afterward, Darius discovered the populace of vampires. Welcomed like any other. It surprised him that their society was similar to humans, only different in a way. His mind started to wrap around the world of the este and he learned. But still, he was not sated. He formed bonds and was enabled to become known among others. His lifestyle had changed drastically, and excitement that bubbled within left him desperate to have more. These este were not horrible creatures that should be hunted and used. No, they were more evolved. He was more evolved. No longer enable to age and the weak immune system that barely protected him from sickness now gone... he had transformed. Found his place- where he belonged, actually. And he took his time as the years passed. Plenty of events came and went. Relationships were formed. And he, himself, became the lord of all vampire.
