Archibald Browning

**Archibald Browning** is a powerful supernatural being who was a former associate of the Grand Coven training to be a student witch before "pissing off" Olivia - the high priestress. He was subsequently cursed to roam the earth as a vampire with no access to magic.

## Physical Appearance

He is a very handsome and wickedly charming man with dark brown hair and hazel eyes. He is slim, but muscular. He keeps his hair groomed to a neat length and typically wears fine clothing. He wears dark clothes, usually blacks and grays, and he also wears a leather jacket from time to time. Archibald also occasionally wears t-shirts, although he usually wears those under a nice coat. He is often seen wearing dress boots, typically a brown color.

As a Vampire created through witch magic, his true form bears resemblance to normal vampires with his irises turning blood-red as dark veins appear under his eyes as blood is pumped forcefully through them; in addition, the red veins under his eyes go down further compared to normal vamps.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Superhuman Strength:** Archibald has vastly superior levels of physical strength in comparison to humans, most monsters, and younger vampires.
* **Superhuman Speed:** He possesses such a significantly increased degree of speed that while running he leaves trace images of his movement that are hard to read with the human eye. This speed is so high that it is nearly indistinguishable from teleportation.
* **Super Agility:** He has far more superhuman agility, flexibility and dexterity than other beings. Archibald can move quickly, jump very high, climb and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion.
* **Super Senses:** Archibald has extremely keen senses of hearing, sight and smell that far exceed that of humans. When he was first cursed, he experienced sensory overload that was near debiliatating.
* **Immortality:** He possesses an eternal life being unnaging and cannot die from mortal means.
	+ **Regeneration:** If he is physically damaged, the wounds and/or injuries begin to rapidly heal at such a pace that he will be restored to optimal health in mere moments.
* **Siring:** Like all Vampires, he is capable of converting a human and a few other species into a vampire. Archibald does this by draining a victims body of blood and feeding the person some of his own blood. The chosen then slumbers with no heart rate for any time between a few hours or a few days where upon awakening need to drink human blood.
* **Advanced Werewolf Venom:** As the ritual that converted him into a vampire made use of werewolf venom from numerous packs, he possesses a tremendous bite that is deadly enough to kill normal vampires and several other species. The venom works in a matter of minutes.

## Weaknesses

1. **Inability to use Magic:** The vampiric curse imposed onto him prevents Archibald from utilising mystical spells or performing rituals
2. **Broken Neck:** Breaking Archibald's neck will not kill him, but it will render him unconscious for a few hours or so.
3. **Lack of Blood:** Being completely drained of blood or his heart stopping will cause Archibald to desiccate like any other vampire, losing most of his strength and any ability to move. He will appear as a corpse and can only start functioning again once he feeds on blood.
4. **Property owned by the living:** In order to enter any house owned by humans, Archibald has to be invited in by a resident. Once invited he cannot be uninvited, only if ownership of the house is changed.
5. **Magic:** Archibald is susceptible to the powers of witchcraft with a witch possessing enough magical power having the ability to harm and even kill him. Magic can also be used to trap him in a certain space and it can be presumed like with all curses the curse that makes him a vampire can be broken through spells or rituals.
6. **Sunlight:** He cannot walk in broad daylight without magical protection or being mutated by special blood as the UV rays will burn his skin.
7. **Wood:** A wooden stake through the heart will temporarily kill Archibald but he will be revived in a few hours.
8. **Higher Beings:** *TBA*
9. **Heart Removal:** If his heart is extracted from his body, Archibald will instantly die.
10. **Decapitation:** If his head is removed from his body, he will die.
