Saulot

Saulot is a fictional character within the Vampire: The Masquerade franchise, the flagship series of White Wolf Studios and their World of Darkness universe. In the series, Cain, son of Adam and Eve, is cursed by God and ends up becoming the first Vampire. He creates more vampires, with each generation removed from him slightly weaker. The third generation of vampires rise up and slay the second, sending Cain into self-imposed exile, and leading to the formation of the Vampire Clans.
One of these clans is the Salubri, founded by Saulot who was famous among the 'Antediluvians' (clan founders, the most powerful vampires aside from Cain and any surviving 2nd generation vampires) for being spiritual and maintaining his faith in a Higher Power. Saulot alone is said to have asked the 'One Above' for forgiveness, and his clan the Salubri are famous for their powers of healing, discernment and exorcism.
Within the Vampire series, Saulot was 'diablerized' (devoured, soul and all, by another vampire) by the upstart founders of Clan Tremere. However, it turns out that Saulot allowed this to come to pass and ended up taking control of Treme's body, effectively conquering his would-be murderer from within.
In the Final Nights edition, which brings the Vampire: The Masquerade to a close, several optional endings are offered by White Wolf. In most of these options, Saulot is either alive and well or is the winner of the 'Jyhad,' the great game played between the Antediluvians for dominance.
In terms of personality, Saulot is often thought of the closest thing the race of Kindred (what the vampires call themselves) have to a bonafide saint. He is kind and wise, but still dark and cunning. He also has a penchant for traveling and lore-gathering, up to and including theft of historical artifacts or knowledge.
Oh, and he might have also created the Baali by accident. Sort of, maybe?....
If you're looking to play as a Theist within a Vampyre setting, Saulot could easily provide plenty of inspiration.
