 —Lemar Wolfblood to Hannah Sommers

**Lemar Edmund Wolfblood** is the deuteragonist in *Blackbird*, created by David Rodriguez. He is the son of the Divine Werewolf King Jürgen Wolfblood and Primordial Vampire Goddess Valerie Nosferatu. Inheriting both their powers, combined with mastering all forms of magic over his lifetime, he is one of the most powerful characters in the series. He is the trump card for the clandestine Blackbird Organization, specializing in investigating paranormal activity and combating the supernatural.

## Appearance

* Human/Homo Magus
* Vampirism
* Divine Lycanthropy

Lemar Wolfblood has stated several times that he can appear as whatever he wants and that they have no meaning behind them but is fine if those around him wish to believe in whatever meaning they put to any form he takes. Lemar defines ‘form’ as being “a malleable state of being one could experience life.”

When Lemar was born, he was turned into a homo magus and renamed to ‘Ralph Milson’ when adopted by The Milson Family. He had black hair, violet eyes, and a tan complexion. Lemar, to this day, dons a necklace given to him by the Milsons as a gift, allowing him to be invisible to both humans and animals. It does not work, however, against the paranormal and supernatural. Throughout his early life, Lemar always carried a brown scabbard for his giant sword Gladia which is mostly drawn from his hip.

Upon his vampiric and lycanthropic heritages manifested in his twenties, Lemar’s eyes are now permanently heterochromatic: his right iris being a bloody red like all vampires, and his left iris saffron like all werewolves. They each glow when experiencing strong emotions, surrounded by darkness, or when he uses his psychic-based powers. His hair length varies from short to knee-length, according to his will, and his teeth change from human with slightly elongated canines to large and triangular like a shark when feeding upon living beings. Any attire or accessory he dons is a part of his physical being because when he regenerates, his clothing and decorations are also repaired.

Being half primordial**/**divine vampire, Lemar typically dons a corporeal human form, but his ‘true form’ is made up of an otherworldly substance that is black in the center with red edges that is immune to mortal weaponry. Like all vampires, Lemar’s dark composition can manifest at will or regenerate more serious injuries almost instantly and is the catalyst for releasing his familiars from within his very being.

   Lemar mostly appears as a short, stocky young man with black unkempt hair. His outfit comprises of a short sleeve white T-shirt, blue jeans, black belt, charcoal cowboy boots, and two bandoliers crisscrossing in an X shape across his chest and back. Covering all this is a brown full-length duster overcoat with a cape that is constantly left open and a matching brown Stetson fedora. In the daytime or in public, he wears a pair of heavily tinted, flat-browed sunglasses with siding shields, a white polo, and a pair of dark slacks, socks, and loafers. For accessories, Lemar wears a pair of black gloves, a Seiko watch around his left wrist, a brown leather bracelet directly laced around his right wrist, and a silver dotted necklace with several military dog tags.
   One of Lemar’s alternate forms is a young woman called ‘Betty Viane’. In this form, ‘her’ body is voluptuous with blonde hair draping to just below ‘her’ shoulders. ‘Her’ outfit is mostly the same, except that ‘her’ white T-shirt is cropped to completely expose ‘her’ midriff and the black belt is studded. In this form, ‘her’ watch and bracelet are absent, instead ‘she’ has a black choker with a silver ring in the shape of a heart.

   Being half divine lycanthrope, he can transform, at will, into a human-wolf hybrid, to a giant black wolf. Just like his natal father, he can also turn into a sentient cloud of ghostly white ‘mist’ that is intangible and invulnerable to attack. He can also manifest this particular form at will while remaining mostly corporeal. Lemar can manifest fur, claws, and other wolf-like characteristics without completely transforming into a werewolf or beyond.Personality

* Intelligence
* Humanity
* Supernatural

Lemar is shrewd and cunning, able to fool even Finster Xavion, a world-renowned demon hunter, and able to defeat opponents craftier and more experienced than himself like Margery who attempted to trick him into thinking she was Kelly Milson and familiarized her. In one-on-one combat, he preferably fights with veracity, intending to scare or at least belittle his opponents before ultimately killing them, much to the chagrin of his allies. Wolfblood only taunts and jeers at weak opponents, mostly humans, after using his psychic abilities to know their greatest weaknesses and taking advantage of them. Brawling and marksmanship are his preferable methods of combat, but he is capable of using more refined martial arts in conjunction to his supernatural abilities. If bullets cannot get the job done, he will fall back on his enchanted medieval sword *Gladia*, like he did in *Episode XI*.

Socially, Lemar is selectively convivial; cordial only to those he respects and trusts while cruel and sadistic towards his enemies. He will use his enemies’ weaknesses in the form of insults, prompting them to rage and lose their confidence or focus. Wolfblood has an age-old habit of addressing allies and close friends by their respective title followed by their last name, or sometimes the classic ‘ma’am’ or ‘sir’. He does not care if this annoys or unnerves most people he interacts with, making him sort of stuck-up or mean sometimes. Only those he truly cares about the most, like Kelly and much later Hannah, are the only people he addresses by their first name and speak informally to them. This could be a sign of genuine platonic or romantic affection he has towards them. For example, when he and Hannah became lovers, he finally calls her ‘Hannah’ for the first time instead of the usual ‘Ms. Sommers’ or ‘Ma’am’, much to her joy. Sometimes, he calls close friends and allies with a nickname, sometimes to their annoyance, like addressing Kelly as ‘Sis’ as a form of playful teasing.

Because of his immortality, Lemar has had a multitude of hobbies and interests including martial arts, horseback riding, hunting live animals to tame his demonic instincts, collecting artifacts, singing and dancing, hanging out at different pubs and clubs to hook up with ladies to satisfy both his vampiric and lycanthropic instincts. When bored or to pass the time, he occasionally reads and writes, or more recently he goes on the Internet. He is uncomfortable around children, oftentimes avoiding them at all costs but able to tolerate them if needed.

Lemar Wolfblood has said, “Humans are complex and fascinating because they can change themselves in ways supernatural entities like [him]self cannot. I know what mortals are truly capable of. They can become monsters, saints, partiers, or philosophers. Humans can become almost anything they could put their minds to, but it comes at a cost.” This statement is a broad overview of humanity from Lemar’s own perspective after living throughout the centuries.

Since his birth, he has lived with humans all his life, and grown accustomed to their flaws and talents. He was adopted and raised by the Milson family who kept his lycanthropy and vampirism dormant with their magic, making him mortal and prone to the same joys and afflictions of being human. He also found joy of ridding demons and developing a moral compass that he would later struggle with for the rest of his life.

When he reached his twenties, the Milsons’ magic faded, much to the family’s dismay, and his divine lycanthropy and primordial vampirism that were left dormant for over two decades overwhelmed him in a way he could not control himself and almost killed his adopted family. Thanks to immediate intervention, however, it took him time to get used to being a demon and has since mastered his abilities while still struggling to retain his humanity. He often said that while the darkness gives him power, he loses his moral compass and fights to regain self-control once again.

Humans, in Lemar’s eyes, are unique and said that they are his personal ‘pets’ in which he will protect at all costs. When he felt the Twilight Virus slowly eating away at him, Lemar began to feel mortal again for the first time in centuries, but his will to live and some help from those he cared the most for wanted him to survive. His façade as a supernaturally destructive force is used to hide his depression where he practices ‘suicide’ at least once on an annual basis just to get an idea of what it feels like how mortals die; however, he is unable to experience death himself, showing hints of jealousy and that even he struggles against the hardship of real life. After centuries of fighting in multiple global conflicts, treasuring mementos from those events and remembering all the friends he made in those instances, and from everyone he loved and cared for the most, Lemar has gotten used to moments of pure grief but attempts to find new friends and companions after previous ones pass away, believing that he is pushing through the suffering that comes from being an immortal.

Lemar Wolfblood’s relationship with the supernatural is mostly negative, as he hunts predominantly demons for a living. He does not, however, outright despise the paranormal as he is a “demon with a human heart” and protects humans from supernatural threats. He does have a fondness or tolerance for certain races. For example, he stated that vampires can never coexist with humanity since human blood is their only source of food and strength. By feeding on humans, said mortals become zombies, another form of demon who is just mindless and violent. Werewolves, on the other hand, can survive without eating humans, substituted with animals, and can easily integrate with humans much easier. Lemar is, however, willing to destroy werewolves who cross the line with him or threatens to eat humans. For example, in *Episode VI*, he threatened to kill Jade Green if she ever tries to eat any humans on their journey together to find his natal father, Jürgen Wolfblood.

Even though he hates vampires more than any other form of demon, in *Episode XV* Lemar met his mother Valerie Nosferatu and they shared their blood together as mother and son. Jealous of the love between mother and son and getting power-hungry ideas, Wren Kreisler raped Nosferatu, sucking all of her blood and stealing all her power. After Wolfblood destroyed Kreisler in *Episode XVI*, he ordered all vampires to go hide inside a perpetual hiding place where the vilest men and wickedest women are kept as sources of blood for vampires, keeping the general public safe from vampires. On the other side, he convinced demon hunters everywhere that vampires have been hunted into extinction, keeping vampires safe from humans who would gladly hunt them down. Lemar chose to keep vampires and werewolves in line by keeping them outside of human affairs within the shadows.History

In *Episode I*, Lemar appears when he rescues Hannah Sommers from a horde of zombies. During this encounter, he realized that she was a homo magus and reports his findings to his fellow comrade, he gets instructed to spy on her by their superior. Afterwards, Sommers would look for answers to her problems with magic and would Lemar himself left a card for her to find which would lead to her to Dr. Edward Smith, who introduced her to the world of the supernatural and bringing her to the clandestine Blackbird Organization. After an interview with Tiberius Birch, Sommers decides to join Blackbird in their perpetual fight against the supernatural.

## Powers and Abilities

Lemar Wolfblood is the literal offspring of Valerie Nosferatu, the first vampire in existence, and Jürgen Wolfblood, a direct descendant of Arcadian King Lycaon who was the first werewolf in existence who he and his sons propagated their species. He possesses supernatural abilities beyond that of vampires and werewolves, and sometimes other entities. He is, in essence, a ‘deity’ over vampires and werewolves, respectively. Despite being raised as a mortal, after his demonic hybridism manifested during early adulthood, he is one of the most powerful characters in the series.

* Physical Abilities
* Magic and Skills
* Transcendent Vampire Physiology
* Transcendent Werewolf Physiology

* **Regeneration/**Biological **Immortality**: Lemar has the ability to recover from any physical injury at an unnatural rate. He has survived injuries inflicted by all sorts of weaponry designed to kill demons. Supernatural weaponry affects him more, but he still regenerates the same if not as quickly. Because of his regeneration, Lemar is biologically immortal; despite being over seven hundred years old, he is biologically in his twenties. Ironically, he claims that true immortality does not exist, despite the fact that Lemar has survived all manner of injuries, except for two ways. The first is the Twilight Virus which was an artificial antigen developed by Phoenix to negate Lemar’s regeneration and it nearly killed him; however, he recovered thanks to a mithridatic antiserum created by Dr. Smith. The only other known method, according to Wren Kreisler, that could permanently kill him is to simply ‘kill’ him repeatedly until he is truly dead.
* **Super Strength**: Lemar is quite strong, able to fight barehanded against supernatural weaponry and destroy them like Xavier’s holy knives that were effective against him. Lemar Wolfblood was able to disembowel several enemies’ heavily armored troops with just one hand. He can also break steel bars and shatter limbs with a single strike, and casually kick a missile away with enough force to bend the entire casing. The upper echelon of his physical strength is unknown, but when it comes to raw strength, he can at least outmuscle most vampires, werewolves, and all mortals.
* **Super Speed, Agility, and Reflexes**: Lemar is faster than a mortal can perceive. Only vampires and werewolves can keep pace with them just fine. His reaction time is topnotch, enabling him to catch bullets with his teeth and to catch most enemies by surprise. For example, Lemar kicked with enough speed and force to sever limbs and even cut most opponents in half, as he did against several armored enemy divisions. They are able to travel across suburban and urban areas with astonishing speed, appearing like a lightning bolt that can destroy nearly everything within several yards.
* **Inhuman Durability**: Lemar Wolfblood possesses iron-like skin that can withstand most pressure. For example, he survived close proximity to large explosions from bombs and missiles without a scratch. In *Episode XV*, Lemar leaped off a plane, fell thousands of feet, and landed on the ground without sustaining any damage.
* **Super Stamina and Endurance**: Lemar takes most damage without flinching or making a sound, quietly allowing the enemy to attack before retaliating tenfold, attacking after getting himself torn asunder by bullets. Whenever Lemar Wolfblood and Finster Xavion fight, the latter does not know of a certain way to kill Lemar, other than killing him repeatedly until he stays down.
* **Super Senses/Extrasensory**: Lemar’s senses are beyond human, possessing skills mortals completely lack. In particular, he possesses a ‘third eye’ that allows him to see things from far distances to an unknown extent. They can also use it to see through things that fool the human eyes, but this can only work consciously. For example, Lemar was unable to perceive Margery’s illusionary clones but was able to ‘see’ them once he knew they were illusions. He possesses a more acute sense of hearing and smell, making him an excellent combatant and tracker, along with other unnamed cognitive abilities that grant him greater spatial awareness and analytical skills.
	+ **Supernatural Detection**: The ability to sense supernatural and paranormal activity, mainly when he correctly exclaimed Alfonse Günsche was a dragon in which he believed his kind was extinct and Fu was a fox spirit. In both of these instances, he was able to do this by glancing at them once.

- **Advanced Combatant**: Lemar can hold his own against several opponents at once; like when he singlehandedly fought and successfully defeated dozens of Phoenix soldiers using nothing but raw hand-to-hand combat. In one-on-one engagements, he fights straightforwardly and with brute force, incorporating his supernatural powers. Although he can work with and fight alongside others, Lemar prefers to fight solo so that he never holds back as using ANY of his preternatural abilities to the fullest causes collateral damage.

- **Magic**: Lemar was raised and taught as a sorcerer by the famed Milson Family. He also manifested his primordial vampirism and divine lycanthropy under a super lunar eclipse in A.D. 1326. This awakened his ability to use the demonic power known as Infernal Magic and took his time mastering it to perfection. He also has knowledge of the occult and how to do rituals, like when he performed a wendigo cleansing ritual to turn Richard Browne human again.
	* **Pyrokinesis**: As a Pyro sorcerer, Lemar can manipulate, generate, and control heat and fire either from nothing or from a preexistent source. Sorcery is only limited to a user’s physical strength, skill, and knowledge of their power. Despite being a Pyro and able to use fire, however, the fire he produces or manipulates from external sources is still subject to the same limitations and natural laws like being weak against water or earth or wind if it is strong enough, but Lemar has the knowledge and skill to overcome these weaknesses.
		+ **Electrokinesis/Fulgurkinesis**: As an extension of fire and all its properties, Lemar can generate, manipulate, and control **Lightning** and **Electricity** without limit since fire is heat and he can use it to affect any electrical-based energy around him. This power alone generates a strong EMP field that negatively affects all electronic-based systems and devices by his physical presence. For example, all cameras and audio recording devices malfunction or become nonoperational before he enters the scene, enabling the demon to remain anonymous from most authorities or the ‘prying eyes’ of the general public.

- **Marksmanship**: Lemar is an accomplished sharpshooter, able to hit targets accurately without facing them thanks to his extrasensory abilities. His primary weaponry is twin Desert Eagles, one silver and the other black. He has used other firearms like an M-60 machine gun, a black Kalashnikov U.S.A., and several Blackbird-made sniper rifles and others.

- **Swordsmanship**: If bullets cannot get the job done, Lemar wields a medieval great sword called *Gladia* imbued with his magic that can slay mortals and demons, except for himself. He uses just his physical speed and accuracy in conjunction with his other supernatural abilities to dispatch stronger foes and has centuries’ worth of swordsmanship experience, matched only by a select few like his natal parents, foster family, and his two masters.

- **Polyglot**: Over the centuries, Lemar has been fluent in several languages including English, Spanish, French, Russian, German, Portuguese, Latin, Japanese, basic Mandarin, Japanese, Swahili, and so much more. He also can read Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, Farsi, Arabic, Swahili, Romani, Yiddish, and every language spoken throughout Eastern Europe.

Being the progeny of the primordial**/**divine vampire Valerie Nosferatu, Lemar possesses the same powers as her, including:

* **Intangibility**: The ability to walk through solid objects, such as walls or weaponry.
* **Hematophagy/Aestivation**: Like all vampires, Lemar’s diet consists of consuming blood raw. He has long, conical fangs and a serpentine tongue to assist in this job. His feeding habits vary, from the traditional neck biting to simply ripping people to pieces, to outright devouring them to satisfy his carnivorous werewolf diet. He does not seem to need blood to survive; however, if starved of it, they will enter into a coma. It is unknown if he could starve to death.
* **Soul Absorption**: By draining a person of their blood, Lemar completely dominates over their soul, powers, and all form(s). He also takes on whatever knowledge and memories they possess.
* **Familiar Summoning and Control**: He can summon forth any soul it has taken at will. Lemar has an entire legion of familiars dwelling within his very being. Whomever he absorbs, their powers are at his disposal. He can give one or more familiars free reign within himself, or completely dominate everyone and everything living inside him. It is unclear if this is due to their individual wills or a lack of willingness to dominate them.
* **Shapeshifting**: Though form is of no particular importance to him, Lemar claims to be able to change into anything. He has several “default” forms including several bats, an amorphous darkness, a talking black cat, and a couple of crows. It is unknown if Lemar could turn into inanimate objects like tables or chairs.
* **Dark Composition**: Like all vampires, Lemar usually dons human, corporeal forms, but his true composition is made of a nebulous otherworldly substance that is black at the core with red tips and is immune to mortal weaponry. It is also the catalyst for his regeneration and releasing his familiars at will. It is Wolfblood’s most powerful and versatile weapon. This form, however, is weak against supernatural and other forms of unconventional weaponry like magic.
* **Telepathy**: Lemar is able to communicate with others and read thoughts and minds if he wishes. There seems to be no maximum range for this power, as Wolfblood maintains telepathic communication with Tiberius and his fellow comrades regardless of being in another country or across a continent.
* **Mind Control**: The power to control minds, doing so exclusively with humans and animals. The afflicted enters a euphoric, stupor-like state and their eyes glow in the same colors as his (red on the right, and yellow on the left). They are pliant to all of his commands, doing and speaking as he wills. Lemar establishes this power through direct eye contact and does not waver, even when his attention is elsewhere.
* **Telekinesis**: The ability to move**/**manipulate matter and energy with the mind. Lemar Wolfblood used said ability on several occasions, like opening doors without touching them and moving, binding, or lifting opponents or inanimate objects with his mind.
* **Haemokinesis**: The ability to manipulate blood at will; however, this power is limited to when blood is outside of the body, as he is never shown using this power while his enemies are intact.
* **Umbrakinesis**: The ability to manipulate darkness**/**shadows. This is limited, however, to preexisting darkness**/**shadows around him, as he has never been shown conjuring or creating darkness of his own.
* **Meteokinesis**: The ability to manipulate the weather. In *Episode XI*, Lemar created a fog to surround the *Volsunga* as cover for his comrades.
* **Gravity Defiance**: Lemar is able to stand and casually move on vertical or upside-down surfaces. This indicates an ability to defy gravity or gravity manipulation, but this remains unclear.
* **Daywalking**: Vampires typically operate in the dark, most notably at night, because of a presumed weakness to sunlight. Lemar, on the other hand, has no problem with daylight, only complaining that it is exhausting and that it greatly weakens his powers.

    Being the progeny of the divine werewolf Jürgen Wolfblood, Lemar possesses the same powers as him, including:
* Pureblooded **Lycanthropy**: Lemar can turn, at will, into a half-human, half-wolf creature and a black monstrous wolf with a shaggy prehensile tail. He can also willingly manifest wolf-like features like fur, claws, fangs, ears, or aforementioned tail without turning completely into a beast.
	+ **Mist Form and Shield**: Lemar can turn, at will, into a white cloud of ‘mist’. In this form, he is intangible and invulnerable to attack, and can stretch his body to great lengths; however, he is unable to attack while in this state. To compensate, Lemar makes at least one part of himself tangible, e.g. his wolf head, which he uses for attack. He can manifest ‘mist’ whilst staying mostly corporeal. He also uses his ‘mist’ abilities to regenerate all injuries he sustains from combat instantaneously.
		- **Flight**: In his ‘mist’ form, Lemar can fly at hyperactive speeds, or even use its properties to achieve flight while remaining corporeal.
## Weapons

* Primary Weapons
* Other Weaponry

Lemar’s most iconic weapons are his twin **IMI Desert Eagles** (*below*). They fire ammunition made out of blessed silver that can greatly harm or even kill most kinds of demons and**/**or supernatural threats. They are ten and three-quarter inches long with a six-inch-long barrel and can carry a magazine**/**cylinder capacity of about 7–9 rounds. (7 for the .50 Action Express, 8 for the .44 Magnum, and 9 for the .357 Magnum.)
..

The **Desert Eagle Chrome** (*above, left*) is a semi-automatic firearm that uses only seven explosive .50 Action Express rounds for maximum damage to an opponent. In *Episode III*, Cody Harris presented Lemar with a **Desert Eagle Black** (*above, right*) that has both semi- and full-automatic capabilities. This is due to some new and experimental designs for continuous rotating bolt action for seven rapidly continuous, gas-operated shots without compromising accuracy or functionality, much to Lemar’s delight. The Desert Eagle Black only uses .44 and .357 Magnum blessed silver incendiary rounds that can destroy most opponents with only one shot.

Lemar carries a black **Kalashnikov U.S.A.** (*left*) assault rifle throughout the series. It uses blessed silver 7.62**×**39mm ammunition and has excellent accuracy and designed with a reduced recoil. Lemar usually uses this weapon in long- and medium-range attack, but loves to use it for hand-to-hand combat like a club.
The **Blackbird Sniper Rifle** (*left*) is a powerful firearm that can “silent” a target at long range. The Blackbird Sniper Rifle (BSR) uses blessed silver .50 caliber explosive rounds for maximum damage in long-range distances. It is used by every member in the bureau, and are personally trained by Wolfblood himself.

Lemar Wolfblood uses an **M-60 machine gun** (*left*) ever since the Tet Offensive at Vietnam in 1968. He has used it whenever he takes the shape of ‘Beatty Viane’, ‘Zeus’, ‘Trina’, ‘Samuel Ramirez’, and other ‘default’ forms he takes throughout the series and it is modified to use blessed silver ammunition instead of conventional ones as he continues fighting against the supernatural. He claimed that it is quite a ‘rush’ firing it, and is by far very proficient with it.Trivia

* Lemar’s name means “the water, land famous”, but is an American variant of the Old French-Old German name *Lemer*. It also a variant of Le-(American), which Lemar himself managed to legally change the “e” into an “a” in his name after coming to the New World in 1720.
* Despite that he can turn into anything, in all physical forms he takes, his heterochromatic eyes remain the same color no matter what shape he takes, but it is unknown why, but it allows his allies or enemies to identify him from amongst a crowd of humans and/or other demons.
* Lemar has three primary transformations: his (divine) lycanthropy including his ‘mist’ form to evade attacks, a swarm of either vampire or megabats (like the golden-crowned flying fox) to defend or attack at will, or his countless humanoid appearances. Whatever form he takes, he can still communicate verbally and telepathically, and continue using his large arsenal of supernatural abilities.
* After joining Blackbird, Lemar wore a steel-ball necklace with a military dog tag around his neck. It is engraved with, “*Aurea Mediocritas* (which is Latin for “golden mean”), *finding a virtuous outcome or middle ground between two sinful extremes*.” This expresses Lemar’s personal belief: “There is no absolute good or evil, only chaos and order. There are no ‘gray areas’ as it justifies only one perspective. There can never be universal peace or justice, because if there was I wouldn’t exist.” For example, Wolfblood is aware of the irony that he slays demons and other forms of evil despite being no different from them.
* Lemar says, “*I am…the dog of Hades…Here standeth Cerberus the dog of Hades…Baring my fangs…To rip my enemies apart.*” to unnerve his opponents when he uses his deadliest abilities. He refers to Greek mythology, particularly Hades the Ruler of the Underworld, combining it with the fact that Lemar is loyal to the Blackbird Organization like an actual dog, and is not willing to let anyone escape him once a fight is established.
* Throughout Lemar’s private quarters at Blackbird HQ, he has several mementos throughout American history from the 1848 Californian Gold Rush to the World Wars and subsequent Cold War. He also has countless keepsakes that he collected during several political and cultural events throughout the latter half of the twentieth century, from the Sexual Revolution of the 1960s to the Columbine School Shooting of 1999.
