  Vampire information. Antoin has been a vampire for more than a few years, but is nowhere near ancient in any sense of the word. However, he's not exactly a fledgeling either. He was turned while in hospice with stage IV cancer, by his oldest living and most distant relative. Thankfully he was given a full tutelage when it comes to vampirism and had an early understanding of his abilities, restrictions, and weaknesses. There are a few ways in which he varies from a garden variety vampire, but there are quite a few aversions to counterbalance any advantages this might offer to him.

  
  
  

  Sunlight Antoin is severely weakened by, but can overall withstand the rays of the sun for atleast an hour. Unfortunately, it takes a heavy toll on his body, his abilities are near nonexistent and it pains him to endure the light without any kind of cloud cover, umbrella, sunblock, et cetera. Prolonged exposure will cause his skin to begin burning and consequentially turning into ash. Charmspeak It is told that in certain instances and in certain circles, Vampires are able to "hypnotize" humans. Intention or charmspeak is a form of hypnosis, which requires vampires to make eye contact and use their voices to make humans do their bidding. It involves truly feeling his own dead state, hearing nothing and complete focus enough to pull a human's attentions. Also works on demons, and a few other supernaturals. Not on weres. Excessive use can have a negative effect on the mental stability of a victim. charmspeak is not an innate ability, as it needs to be taught and practiced (often by makers). Vampires can use this on at least two humans at the same time. Antoin's sire has an accelerated mastery of the skill, and may have passed some of it's strength down to him in a dampened capacity. Blood If Antoin's Blood is consumed by a Human (or any other creature) in a small dose (one or two drops), it will heighten the senses, increase strength, make an intense sexual experience, cause hallucinations. It's like a trip, drinkers may feel more connected with the world around them. Euphoria, sensuality, life and death, the world is limitless.. The effects are different with each person; however, if the blood is taken in a large dose directly from the vein, it causes several different effects, such as healing someone who has injuries, even if they are dangerously close to death. If taken in a large dose when there is no injury on the consumer, they will have an extremely increased libido. Men will experience an enhanced erection for a long period of time, heightened strength for several days after consumption and feel terribly unwell. Consumers who drink from Vampires will begin to have strange dreams (mostly sexual) about the Vampire from whom they drank. Vampire blood ONLY temporarily grants Consumers very fast and radical rates of healing powers. However, this is something the Vampire world does not want to become well known. If someone drinks for an extended period from a Vampire directly, not only do they heal, but their souls are now permanently one with that of the Vampire who's blood they have drank and their bond will grow ever stronger with time and consumption. Two sips won't cause this, but prolonged drinking only strengthens the bond.. The Vampire can sense when the person who has fed directly from them is in any trouble or is in need of aide and, can feel their emotions. Because of the enhancements and euphoria it grants, addiction is highly common.. It is not however palatable to other vampires as it is from a dead person. Healing Accelerated healing is possessed by vampires within reason. Able to withstand inhuman amounts of pain or damage. All types of wounds such as cuts, burns and other forms of tissue damage are healed ultimately by feeding on a human, though smaller injuries will heal themselves although at great risk because this weakens him.

  Enhanced Senses Antoin has better eyesight, hearing, taste, touch and smell than humans and some other creatures. Not up to par with the senses of elders, however. He can see at night with a little more ease, hear and smell nearly as well as dogs, has better taste than a sommelier & can hear thoughts in the weak of will. Fangs Two inch fangs located at the lateral incisors are often glamoured away with a strange magic. The fangs become known by will or involuntarily when A) Hungry B ) Aroused C) Enraged. Flight Antoin isn't quite able to fly, but can levitate a few feet off the ground when necessary. Though it is mostly a draining activity and is only reserved for situations where it might be necessary. Which it never really is. Mindwalking Poorly harnessed, overwhelming, passed down, ability. While Antoin doesn't possess this in the full capacity, he can use it in smaller amounts. Mind walking is dangerous, a rare gift bestowed by the king Asmodeus to an early line of vampires in order to to help with the hunt. Mindwalking can be used in a manner of ways. To communicate telepathically (Does not work with mundane) To share vivid images of thoughts, or memories. Antoin cannot delve into the memories of others unless they purposely open their mind to him. Entry can be obained via charmspeak which can eventually be used to remove or manipulate existing and create false memories. He's not totally proficient at this, in fact he won't be ever great at it.

  Food and Drink Luckily, Antoin is able to imbibe human foodstuffs. Unfortunately, he cannot draw sustenance or nutrition from them in any capacity. Alcohol will affect him, but food does nothing to curb his hunger or slake his thirst. Shifting Eh, he's not able to turn into a bat. More like a really slow fog, and he's so bad at this in fact he never even tries it anymore. Immortality Well, you see it. He'll be thirty two, handsome and healthy for the rest of his days unless one of his weaknesses creeps up onto him. Antoin will never die of natural causes, or age. Blur Able to run or move so fast when running and concentrating, that the most it can be detected is by sighting a blur of motion and color or the feeling of fast, cold wind whipping by.

  
  
  Weaknesses

  Silver. Causes extreme pain on skin contact, skin will melt and blister under the pure, precious metal. It can be used to ground or incapacitate a vampire. If ingested internally, Silver will burn it's way out. Everywhere that is except for the heart, or the lungs. Yikes. Fire Fire bad. The Bleeds When hungry for too long or unable to rest for an extended period of time, the eyes, nose mouth and ears will bleed. Also, pretty gross. Remedied by food or rest. Holy water Holy water just plain hurts. It can't kill him, or burn him badly, it's just annoying like a sunburn or a bee sting over the expanse of where it settles.

  Stakes and Beheading Well that's a no brainer. Undying Thirst Antoin will need to feed upon the blood of living humanoids for the rest of his life. Bees This has nothing to do with vampirism, he's just allergic. Human Hearted Antoin has a great deal to learn about emotion and everlasting life..
