Brief History A mix of luck and the blood of the parents determines the grade of a Vampire. The closest their genes are to the original, to the first King's, the more potent their abilities are and the less human they can pretend to be. As a freakish anomaly born out of wedlock between the Warlock house and the Thornweave house, it is assumed that Dekard's blood is so pure that it could just as easily have run from the first King's veins. Although initially unaware of this bastard son's theoretical perfection, the Thornweave house quickly learned of it and reclaimed Dekard as undeniably Lissandra Thornweave's son. From here, cult religions and even movements to elect this glory boy as the future King of Vampires had sprung up among the fanged community. Personality Being so prestigious, even among elites, Dekard's attention is often saught after by any vampire. To the point of ridiculously childish bickering even between nobles. Dekard, himself, can be incredibly boisterous and charismatic. Like a darker version of a fairy tale Prince, only as though his tale were crafted for the modern young adult women instead of children. He is dominant in everything he does. Taking action, taking charge, making the first move, directing others. While hot headed types often won't get along with this trait, Dekard is quick to cast aside dead weight. He is confident in his own ability to the point that he isn't afraid to cut down powerful allies who get in his way. He isn't a moral figure. This is the epitome of the royal blood manifest. His goal is to further his kind and enslave the incompetent and weak humans. This is a polarizing figure. Even other monsters won't enjoy his flashy captain-esq role or his complete disregard for those that don't immediately benefit him. Loyalty can be earned with him by those who are competent like him. Dekard can be mean when he needs to be. He can often find himself playing the lighthearted bully among friends and even lovers. To him, politeness and respect for all is woefully boring. The word 'elite' applies all to well. PowersAbilitys Despite his comparable youth, Dekard spares no one the chance to witness the cruel abilities wielded by the first King that clawed a name for his kind among all monsters and secured a stable throne among the damned. Dekard's primary ability is one only shared by himself and this legendary figure The unchallenged domain over human and vampire blood. In essence, he can effortlessly turn untrained humans and lesser vampires into puppets and even make them and himself levitate by making this blood move like a Pyromancer controls fire. He can force his own blood to solidify quickly into metal-like sharp projectiles and weapons or slowly into incredibly dense shields and walls. His body can momentarily dissipate into a red fog to minimize the effectiveness of physical attacks or attempts to bind him. On top of that, Dekard can even dominate the minds of and escape into the bodies of particularly weak willed individuals. While his perception greatly outpaces his literal speed, he most certainly isn't slow by monster standards and his physical strength grows immensely after feeding. Since he can become fog and rematerialize, destroying his body would have to be the slowest and most tedious means of killing Dekard. Stakes to the heart, sunlight, traditional holy water, garlic and crosses have very little effect on Dekard and his black soul's great divide from humanity prevents psychic domination of any kind. However, he has a very reliable weakness in fire attacks and fire magic. Unlike most attacks, this chemically alters his fog and the blood it makes contact with, effectively destroying large swathes of his body with very little effort. Weapons Black Diamond Engagement Ring - Dekard posses a portion of his blackened evil soul in the shape of a big black diamond on an almost clear metal alloy ring that is enchanted to adjust snugly to its wearer. This rightfully stays far away from his own fingers. After picking a particular vampire to be his mate, this ring would serve as a means for him to return within their body should he be defeated. Somewhat like possession until an incubation period is complete and he can reform his own body. This process isn't a guarantee. Said partner could be unpredictable or his primary body's demise could be such that his entire being is erased. I like Shana. She seems like a brave direction for a monster character visually speaking.
