PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS Height: 6'7" Weight: 201 lbs Physical Build: lean, lanky, lithe, toned Hair Color: Blonde Eye Color: Yellow [red when thirsty] Description: If we're sarcastically speaking here, then Vladimir (Vlad for short) is the perfect example for a Naktan citizen. He sticks out like a sore thumb in the dark continent, which might be the reason he doesn't stick around there for all too long. He has blonde, slightly golden, hair whereas most people who live in Naktis have a darker hair color. His hair is a bit on the short side with some wave to it. His eyes are usually a bright, perky yellow unless he hasn't had blood in quite a while. When he's thirsty, then his eyes shift to crimson.
The vampire stands at the height of 6'7", which can either be taken as impressive or awkward. He's lean and incredibly lanky, seeming as if he couldn't do much damage. But, you must remember he is a vampire. And, he is actually has some muscle and is finely toned, built more like a runner than anything. His skin is, of course, pale due to his vampirism. Ironically, he does spend alot of time in the sun, just under the shade of some sort. One thing you can always expect from Vladimir is a cheerful smile.
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS Alignment: Neutral Religious Affiliation: Holy Likes: joking, laughing, doing nothing, freaking out Nuala, making friends Dislikes: sun, light, hot weather, bringing out his darker side, making people mad, confrontation Description: Not only does his appearance contrast Naktis, but his personality does too. On the normal occassion, he is, probably, the most carefree and happy vampire and Naktan around. He is always a happy-go-lucky idiot, pushing people to do their best and encouraging people to go for their dreams. He's honest, which might come across as cold with some people, but when Vlad puts it in such a comforting tone, you can't help but smile too.
He is also geniunely a laid-back soul. If something doesn't go according to plan, he doesn't freak out. He is able to keep his calm about quite a lot of things. He, too, is a joker, picking on his only employee, Nuala, frequently. He claims that he likes the reaction he gets out of her.
Unfortunately, everyone has a dark side. A true Naktan does lie in his heart. A cunning, sarcastic being might slip out every once in while, which isn't frowned upon for the most part. He is always known as a very mysterious person, no matter where he is. What is truly a negative about the vampire is that he really has a temper. He won't let most things get to him, but say one thing that really hits home and he go off like a bomb. And once something sets him off, it's hard to calm him back down, so it's best not to do so.
HISTORY AND BACKGROUND Vladimir's life really took off when he came across a young girl in the forest with auburn hair and odd, changing eyes. She was a faerie, only about the age of 5 and her name was Nuala. When he found her, she claimed to be abandonned by her mother and was crying desperately. She also kept sputtering something about a Nar-something. The word was jumbled up very well due to the sobbing.
He really didn't know what to do until he noticed something very off about the girl. Her eyes would change and, with that, her personality would change too. This faerie wasn't sane at all. Hearing rumors about if you get changed then any problems are cured, he decided to try it out just for her sake. Though, she didn't comply at first. She screamed and tried to fly away. For some reason, Vlad's anger peaked at this and he lashed out, grabbing her wings and pulling her back. In a rush, he ripped her wings and bit her neck, infecting her.
Afterwards, he felt so bad. Guilt ate at him and he wished to apologize to the girl. He did, but only when he was hiding under the safety of a cloak and not able to be seen. Coward, he called himself, but he didn't change. He looked after the girl, thinking that might make up for him ripping her wings. He thought the infection might heal them and her insanity, but it didn't.
One morning, Vladimir was just coming back from an early hunt. Nuala was still asleep in her usual hollowed-out tree. He was about to wake her up when something jumped on his back. Hands wrapped around his throat, as if that should effect him, he didn't need to breathe. He ripped the person off and threw them across the clearing.
The girl who had attacked her was a vampire slayer and she was furious. She quickly attacked again, this time using a sword and the element of fire.
"No!" Nuala had woken up and scampered out into the clearing too. Vladimir yelled at her to run away, afraid she would get hurt. Distracted with Nuala, the slayer stabbed him in the stomach, pulled back, and sliced his throat as well. Blood went everywhere. And, as he fell over, he finally saw Nuala escape.
He would have died. In fact, he was so out that the vampire slayer thought he was dead and left. He would have died had it not been for a very curious deer to walk by. As a pureblood vampire, he never would have thought about drinking the blood of an animal. But, seeing as he was dying, he couldn't help thinking that that one deer could save his life. He caught the deer easily, drank it's blood, and was relieved to find hs wounds had all healed up.
He decided to keep away from Naktis for a while, traveling to a few other continents for some years. Though, he couldn't stay away from Naktis. He loved it. So, he moved back and started up a few shops. Only one of them stayed in business, though. A little place called "Hot Cake Bakery". He was surprised to find his first and only employee was a hard-headed vampire named Nuala. Of course, she didn't recognize him because he had always worn a cloak around her. He didn't even tell her his name back then. He suddenly became a new person to her. Vladimir, the annoying, mysterious, and idiotic boss to the Hot Cake Bakery. Sometimes he wonders if it's step down from what he was originally.
