Vanya

Vanya is the first Vampire and a main antagonist in the series.

## History

### Backstory

Vanya was once a beautiful but lowly village woman. One night, while she was out washing clothes, the Demon Lord Purson appeared before her in the guise of a very attractive man. Vanya was *instantly* smitten with him and the two laid down in her bed to make love. Afterwards, Purson drained her of her blood and nearly killed her. But before she died, he took pity on her and made her the first vampire.

### Throughout *Hallows*

Vanya is first seen in an abandoned mill, drinking blood from a woman that she seduced into following her before having sex with her. She then dumps the woman's body into a ditch after draining her dry. She then heads into a nearby tavern and seduces two more women at the same time, who invite Vanya to their house for some "alone time". Vanya accepts the offer, and after being invited, kisses the two and sleeps with them, drinking from their necks as the human women sleep, too exhausted to notice.

Vanya leaves before the sun comes up, coming across Beatrice and Veronica, who are begrudgingly hunting together. Vanya smiles to herself and starts to plan on seducing the two like her numerous other victims/“lovers”.

## Personality

Vanya is very flirtatious and playful, and she often flirts with her preferred prey, which are gay women. After flirting or sleeping with her "lovers", Vanya will drink their blood as they sleep so they don't discover her status as an Arch Vampire.

She also seems to have an obsessive crush on both Veronica Roman and Beatrice Sharpwood, and will go to extreme lengths to seduce them.

## Appearance

   Vanya is described as a “very beautiful and sexy vampire”. She has curly red hair, seductive hazel eyes that change to a bright purple color when she goes into "vampire mode". She also has a curvy, voluptuous body, which gets her a *lot* of attention from women.

## Powers

* **Blood Empowerment**: Like all vampires, Vanya must drink blood in order to access her many abilities.
* **Immortality**: Vanya has lived since the 19th century and shows absolutely no sign of aging.
* **Supernatural Strength:** As she is the first Vampire, Vanya is one of the most powerful supernatural creatures out there. She has been shown capable of ripping humans apart and can drain a human of blood in a few seconds.
* **Supernatural Speed:** Vanya can move at speeds faster than any human or average vampire. When running at full speed, Vanya moves faster than any normal vampire.
* **Supernatural Senses:** Since she's an Arch Vampire, Vanya's senses are greatly enhanced.
* **Seduction**: Vanya is a skilled seductress, as evident by all the women that have slept with her throughout her eternal life.
* **Empathy:** Vanya can sense the emotions of humans.
* **Weather Manipulation (limited):** As the first vampire, Vanya has the ability to manipulate the weather to a limited degree. She often uses this power to intimidate her prey before going in for the kill.
* **Shapeshifting:** Vanya can shape shift into various different types of animals such as crows,meats, or a wolf with orange fur.
* **Mind Control:** One of Vanya's more interesting abilities is her power to hypnotize humans by speaking or looking at them.
* **Regenerative Healing:** Like other vampires, Vanya can regenerate from a variety of injuries within minutes.

## Weaknesses

Despite her status as the first vampire, Vanya is still vulnerable to the standard weaknesses that vampires possess. These include:

* **Wooden stakes**: Vanya can be killed by wooden stakes.
* **Crucifixes**: Like most vampires, crucifixes can injure or kill Vanya.
* **Holy water**: Holy water can also hurt Vanya.
* **Sunlight:** Vanya is vulnerable to sunlight but it doesn't kill her. Like with other vampires, it dampens her powers during the day time.
* **Blessed Bullets:** Bullets soaked in holy water or other mixtures can kill Vanya, just like with other vampires.
* **Werewolves**: Werewolves are one of the few species that can go toe to toe with her physically.
* **Higher Beings**: Higher beings like deities, angels, demons, and the Primordials can easily hurt and/or kill her.
