APPEARANCE

Imaris has a distinct hunched-over posture with a lanky physique. His features are soft and almost feminine in many ways, the effects of vampirism have caused his cheeks to fall in and his eyes to be covered in a constant tired look. His albinism meant that once his eyes turned a sharper shade of red, the shift wasn't too noticeable. An average person wouldn't assume Imaris is undead from afar, but rather that he looks sickly or malnourished. 

BACKSTORY

Imaris grew alongside his twin brother, Cinwell, inside a cult that was obsessed with the concept of eternity and eternal life. Imaris was always in Cinwell's shadow, seen as a curse or competition to his elder brother when in reality he wanted nothing more than reassurance and comfort. Eventually, Imaris was sacrificed by the cult at the hands of his older brother, having his heart stripped from his still-warm body in the process. Once the ritual was over, the cultists were going to burn the body until an unexpected rainstorm halted their plans, of which they then left the body outside temporarily until the rain stopped. However, the cultists were unaware of a vampire lord attracted to the scent of terror, finding the limp body of a small child outside their base's courtyard. The vampire lord Lucius Van Lupin took the corpse of the child to his lair, infecting him with vampirism. 

NOTES

• Increased strength, dexterity and constitution from vampirification 
• Blood Drinker. Despite being undead, Imaris must consume a ration worth of blood each week to sustain himself. His vampire blood makes him immune to diseases and doesn't need to eat or breathe to survive, but can ingest food and drink as he pleases, however, they will often have a bland and stale taste. If Imaris isn't able to consume a ration worth of blood, he begins to be overcome by an instinctual hunger, similar to a starving animal, which gets worse the longer it's left. Even when satiated, Imaris may become agitated or twitchy during the heat of battle or if treating a wounded ally, the scent of blood being much stronger than it'd be to a human. One Ration = One pint of blood. Consuming blood is the only way for Imaris to heal himself. 
• As an undead vampire, Imaris cannot use spells that heal others as his life force doesn't allow him to.
• Can't see his reflection in mirrors and doesn't show up in photos

RELATIONSHIPS

Lucius Van Lupis: Imaris is very afraid of Lucius as he's the spawn's lord. Lucius frequently subjects Imaris to self-mutilation, physical assault and more on a daily basis if he doesn't get a task done quickly enough. Lucius will often assign an impossible task such as cleaning the entire manor top to bottom in 15 minutes with nothing but a feather duster. Lucius also frequently starves Imaris so that the vampire spawn's hunger gets worse so that Imaris can really take in what he's become.
