Opening
his eyes He looks around the dark abandoned house. "Where am I?" he
says. A voice out of the darkness says "You're safe." He sits up and
begins scratching his head. He squints his eyes in order to see the dark figure
sitting before him. It is a frail, old looking vampire. His face is twisted
and distorted. "You..." he
says. "You are the one that attacked me in the woods!" He feels his
face. "I'm hideous! I look like you!!" he exclaims. The old vampire
nods "You saw me feeding... maybe it's my fault for feeding so close to
your village. I couldn't let you bear witness to what I was doing." says
the old vampire. "I am from the
clan known as 'Nosferatu' and I didn't want to hurt you but I couldn't let
you go on to tell anyone what was happening." He shakes his head in
discontent "What am I to do now? I can't just go back home!" he says.
"I wouldn't suggest that you do! But I do suggest that you come with me
and let me teach you in the ways of the Nosferatu
clan. My name is Delios. If you follow me there is a
group of our kin that are in a nearby cave just north of here. I would also
suggest making some friends there, because the ones you once had would never
accept you for what you are now. You have to realize that what you look like
and what you now are, is a bloodline curse." He is overcome by the
thoughts of his family, friends, and the
fact that he will live an eternity never knowing what has become of them.
"I shouldn't have disobeyed my parents by going out exploring in the
woods. I wish I had stayed in my room, mortal, and ignorant of the world around
me" he says. "That is the one gift I have given you, I have taken
away your ignorance, you will gain a wealth of knowledge with time on your
side. Who knows, maybe one day you can really explain to people what happens in
history from now on. That is, if humans ever accept us." He pulls himself
to his feet and follows the old man. They begin to walk north toward his new
destiny and begin a new chapter in his life that will extend until the end of
time.
This
is the way that he entered the world of the cainites.
Stripped of all his family , his friends, and his life. All he has left are
memories.
It
has been 258 years since that night. Since then he has grown strong and knowledgable. He has been raised into the vampire world by Delios and the Nosferatu clan.
They taught him how to conceal his face and identity. They also showed him how
to communicate with animals and take control over his supernatural strength.
He
is over 6 feet tall, he has no hair other than a long beard that extends from
his chin down to the middle of his chest. On his back he has a rather large
tattoo of the Nosferatu clan symbol which depicts a
mask that is crying.
He
is hideously ugly, in fact he is quite repulsive.
