Vlad Plasmius

**Vlad Masters**, also known as **Vlad Plasmius** is a character in the fanon universe of Once Upon a Time. It is the name of a mysterious figure and the former arch-enemy of Team Phantom, as well as the creator of the ghost girl, Danielle.

## History

### Background

Vlad Masters attended the Wisconsin and was best friends with both Jack and Maddie Fenton in their college years; however, he had a crush on Maddie, despite her being in love with Jack at the time. Even then, Vlad was jealous of their relationship. The trio made a prototype portal machine to an alternate dimension known as the Ghost Zone but Vlad doesn't think that it will work. During one of their testing, Vlad stands in front of the portal when Jack activates it, the blast from the small explosion causes Vlad's face to grow Ecto-Acne. He was hospitalized for months but the accident also destroyed his social life and, in his eyes, his chance at entering in a relationship with Maddie. However, the blast also rewrote Vlad's DNA, making him the world's first human/ghost hybrid. Throughout the past twenty years, he grew embittered at Jack, especially when he and Maddie married and started their own family. Still, Vlad rose with money and power, while holding a deep resentment for his former best friend. He takes advantage of his powers by committing many invisible burglaries to acquire his wealth he has now, eventually taking the identity of Vlad Plasmius.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Human-Ghost hybrid Physiology:** After the accident in college, Vlad became a ghost/human hybrid just like Danny. While Vlad has all the same powers that Danny has, Vlad is slightly more powerful than his archenemy because of the twenty years of experience he had that Danny does not have yet. H His experience with his powers allows him to perform many techniques that Danny has yet to learn, such as Duplication (which Danny did not master until "Torrent of Terror."), and for all the feats that Danny can perform, Vlad can perform them better, possibly due to the 20-year experience in which he has had more time to develop new abilities, improve his existing ones, and patch up any weaknesses he might have, but Danny is slowly catching up to him. At the same time, however, Vlad seems to lack several powers; like Danny's Ghostly Wail and doesn't have Ghost Sense or by extension, hasn't developed Cyrokinesis as Danny later gain, possibly as a result of being less exposed to the energies that gave the two their powers than Danny was.
	+ **Transformation/Going Ghost:** Being a half ghost, Vlad can turn into a ghost and human at will.
	+ **Duplicates:** In his debut appearance, Plasmius could duplicate himself four times when he was trying to overwhelm Danny. He can also duplicate himself in his human form or make duplicates while being invisible. This is his most often-used and most advantageous technique.
	+ **Overshadowing:** Plasmius took possession of Jack Fenton during "Bitter Reunions."
	+ **Intangibility/Invisibility:** While going invisible, he is able to pass through walls, activating his intangibility
	+ **Fight/levitation:'** He can fly, float and hover, in both his ghost and human form.
	+ **Spectral Body Manipulation:'** Shape-shift his body into any position.
	+ **Super Durability:'** Vlad is far more durable than a human.
	+ **Superhuman Agility and Reflexes:** The ability to supernaturally be more agile than a human, including his balance and reflexes.
	+ **Ghost Tornado/Ecto-Twister**: By waving his cape around and spinning at high speeds, Vlad can create his own ectoplasmic energy tornado that is similar to a real one. It is capable of cause mass destruction, deflecting any incoming ectoplasmic energy attacks, and causing huge wind gusts that can suck his enemies in and throw them to other places. This is arguably Vlad's most powerful technique and he only used it once in Eye for an Eye. This is also they only Ghost Power Vlad has and Danny curranty hasn't developed.
