**Ratmir Nox** is the leader of the Nox bloodline of Venine's vampires and sworn enemy of House Padrana.

## Bio:

Not much is known about Ratimir before he turned, other then he was born in southern Venine, and he was involved with the Council of Magic. What is known he he lusted after power and after encountering his predecessor, Astaroth, he willingly allowed himself to be turned, betraying his fellow Council agents by doing so. Soon after he broke free of Astaroth’s will, he planned to replace him as blood prince.

After a few hundred years of consolidating power, he struck down his former master.

 Upon becoming the master vampire, he began to throw massive parties, filled with vicious feasting  and many blood sacrifices.

This gained the attention of the Aldean household of Padrana who quickly became his chief enemies.

At some point during this time, he found himself in a realm controlled by an ancient Aldean who hosted a competition for the single use of the Sphere of the Ancients, an old wish granting orb. He failed to win the artifact in a fighting tournament against several other champions and soon fled back to Venine.

### Omega Killer:

Less then a century later, he met with the troubled sorceress Margaret Padrana. Though he intended to kill her for being part of his rivals' family, he felt pity for her in her distraught state, pity for the first time in centuries. They bonded over their shared dislike for her family and she told him about her situation, namely that she accidentally killed her best friend Isla Kaur, was encouraged by her mentor and killed her childhood bully.

Seeing something inside this girl, he took her under his wings and together they began to start writing and planning a new form of magic, sorcery that used the negative emotions of others to power their spells. He snuck into the Guild of Sorceries and countinued to meet and plan with Margaret for many months, feeding on the peasantry and servants, draining them of blood and placing their corpses in the hidden chamber in the underway of the school.

The two plotted and schemed, creating their new dark form of magic which Padrana tested on the people of the school and brought them heartache. Eventually Padrana brought chaos, killing many students and unleashed the demon Relini. Ratimir once again escaped in the chaos and returned to Venine.

### Fall of House Padrana:

He continued plotting against the Padrana family. He hired warriors and gathered many undead Despite his great army, he was unable to attack the estate due to it's defenses . Seeking another way in, he made plans to rescue Margeret from the Hatkargate, but would soon learn from a hooded figure that she was being moved by the Order of Kiem to a new location. The hoodes man gave him the transport's coordinates and Ratimir made his move.

He brought his champions and attacked the Kiem Knights, killing Tanner Vanak before rescuing Margaret and fleeing before other Kiem Knights could arrive for a counter-attack. He would help Margaret recover, having two new magic rods carved from the recovered beating rod of Kurban Mutallip.

He recruited her in his scheme against her hated family. Upon her breaking of the defensive seal, he would lead his army into the estate, bringing the deaths of many of the Padrana family in a mere sixteen minutes . He would kill the family patron Toro himself.
