Pyre was born to a vampire noblewoman and a human merchant. After birth he was separated from his father and raised by his aunt in the Arterbury family house. Being the first Human/Vampire hybrid, his aunt didn't know how to exactly raise him, and so there were a few accidents. She was relieved when they found out he also could and had to drink blood to survive, as that was what she was used to doing. Pyre was a pretty outgoing child, but his aunt did her best to make him stay at the family house and not get them discovered.

Afer growing up and achieving adulthood, Pyre went on to search for his father, to get some answers about his birth and ask about his mother. Unfortunately, he was too late, when he managed to find his father, it was in the form of his tombstone. This was the first big realization for Pyre, showing how different his life is from human beings, even if their beginnings were the same.

Soon after that, Pyre decided to explore the world. Starting fresh was exciting for him, far from the family house and the rest of his family and so he moved to France in 1845. He didn't stay there long however, the second french revolution in 1848 made him travel further, this time to the US, where he stayed until now.

Pyre wears formal clothing almost exclusively, especially if in public. Suits, vests, fancy jackets, he likes nice and custom made clothes, sometimes with jewels or golden ornaments. He likes to put a red gem somewhere onto his clothing, a symbol of the vampire species in general. He always wears a special rose in his hair. It's a light pink color with dark red outlines and whitish pink spots. This flower doesn't seem to wilt or rot at all, even after centuries. He only takes it off to shower or change clothes.
