Hadrian Belmonte

Your character's quote

## Background

Hadrian was born sometime over 1,500 years ago in the world of vampires, born to two powerful higher vampires. He can recollect the first Conjunction of Spheres which first brought and trapped his ilk in this world, but his memories of both the event and his home-world are vague, as he was but a child and so many years have passed since. His earliest memories of life back home were warm and pleasant, although Hadrian often wonders if the love he recalls between his parents was merely a dream, if their seemingly idyllic relationship was viewed through the rosy lens of the disillusioned youth. Thrust into a new world, the dynamic between the Lucia and Markus soon fractured heavily. They, like all of the other vampires, were stranded and left with nothing. Lucia felt they needed to adjust to the world they found themselves in and dig their roots, seeking stability and a future for her son. Markus, much like the other Unseen Elders, wished to slumber until their believed inevitable return to their home-world. Lucia took her son and left, a decision ----- (ask James about plans for Markus early history)

His adolescence was bright under the care of his mother, who doted on him and did her best to make up for the lack o

\*Conflict between mother and father could be due to anger at betrayal and his marriage to bruxa. Regardless as to reasoning of conflict, Markus fights and murders Lucia, and Hadrian was forced to witness. When he tried to defend mother, put in a near death state and left with warning to never cross and act insolently toward father. Traumatized. Blah. Has actively avoided father and wandered all across the world. blah seeks affection and approval blah

## Personality and Behavior

Character's personality goes here. Provide at least a paragraph to describe your character, more however is appreciated. A well developed character is the key to a well developed RP. Character's behavior goes here. Consider manners, etiquette, social behavior, and so on; I.E: Does not swear, socially awkward, charismatic, shy in large groups, etc.

## Occupation

What does your character do for a living? Do they hold an occupation to keep them financially stable, for enjoyment or is it a cover for belonging to an organisation perhaps?

## Religious Beliefs

Hadrian views faith merely as a mortal coping mechanism for the hardships of living and a lazy method of explaining away difficult truths instead of embarking on the path of deciphering the unknown. He harbors both disdain and a begrudging respect for religious institutions in how they control and sway the masses. Ultimately, he thinks poorly of religion, his observation well over a thousand years being that it instates unnecessary rules that stifles individuality and freedom.

Higher vampires tend to view the full moon as an important holiday where they raid and hedonistically feast on villages, but Hadrian has never partaken, both out of fear for harsh repercussion from his father and genuine disinterest in causing havoc and harm. He does still, however, celebrate the power of the full moon through sex and consensual feeding.

The higher vampire may feign to be a follower of particular religions, but such instances are merely covers to appear human. Given his vast experience around mortals and their histories, he is quite knowledgeable of their beliefs.

## Bonds

### **Family**

* Markus Boleyn - (Father, living) Markus' shadow looms large over his son, and Hadrian lives in entirely justifiable fear of the Unseen Elder. Any feeling of love towards his father was crushed during his childhood and replaced with unease and trepidation, and for centuries Hadrian has harbored an intense loathing towards him after the murder of his mother and the near death experience inflicted upon himself by his own flesh and blood. His hatred, however, is dampened and overwhelmed by abject terror, knowing personally Markus' immense power and callousness towards all. While he wishes for his father's demise, Hadrian believes it an impossibility and doesn't dare defy him or earn his ire. There are times the higher vampire grows acutely anxious, petrified Markus will have found some ill-conceived wrong he deems unforgivable or inexplicably have grown tired of his son's existence and that he will finish Hadrian off for good. If Hadrian learns his father is within the same region or is incoming, he will flee. He has not seen Markus for several hundred years, since the night that he so harshly persecuted his first family.
