Anthony Vargas

Personality

• Collected • Flirtatious • Charming • Responsible • Fashionable • Independent • Patient

Anthony is a fairly new turned vampire. And would be described best as a 'new-age vampire' as opposed to traditional. More like a watered down type. He can eat meat though it’ll have to be rare or raw but he still needs blood. The sun blinds him and hurts him as makes him violently ill but doesn't kill him.

Anthony’s charm and looks tend to get him out of a lot of trouble. He knows how to talk his way through things as well as keep the peace. Along with some supernatural influence, he makes the perfect sentinel for The Den and willing to work extra hours. He doesn’t sleep anyways. It takes a toll on him but it can’t be helped and he’s good at hiding how it wears on him. He doesn’t think much of himself but he’s very considerate of others and has been known to talk to those that need it for as long as needed as he is incredibly patient.
Osmin Morley is his roommate ever since they met and they’re an incredibley close duo and a mutually beneficial relationship. It almost seems like Anthony can read Osmin’s mind sometimes.

BIO

Anthony originated from the east coast of the U.S. with a pretty cushiony life as a manager of a sports store until one fateful day he took the wrong girl home. The vampiress kept him hostage as a living food source and fed off him as she squatted in his apartment with him for awhile until he was near death.
For whatever reason she decided to turn him. She fed herself back to him at his brink. After waiting to see if he made it through, she took his money and any other valuables she can stuff into her pockets and left.

After a week of experiencing death, he managed to pull himself together. Anthony found he had a new sensitivity to the sun but managed to get to the police station to report the incident but nothing could be done. He ended up losing his job and eventually his place and moved in with his aunt. He tried to find someone to help him but gave up, not knowing how or who to go to.
Anthony found himself at a bar where a suspicious drunkard told him if he didn't drink blood soon he'd die. After a lot of attempts at clear communication, the drunkard gave in and Anthony would need to go to a certain blood drive. The drunkard drew a palm symbol onto Anthony's wrist and told him the people there would recognize it. Anthony followed his instructions the next day, and the staff waved him over to another room. They revealed the only way he’d known about this place is if he was a monster. He told them what had happened and they gave him some blood and said the first one is free, if he wanted more he would have to go to their boss in the midwest. A long trip later he found himself in Mikail's presence. Mikail set him up with the Bouncer job and he’s been working there ever since. While he is a vampire himself he’s not fond of them. Still quite bitter over the incident that led him to be what he is now.


MEETING OSMIN

Anthony isn’t fond of being a vampire and tries to kid himself over how long he can go without straight blood. On one particular hard night he picked up a peculiar scent. It smelled like how he remembered honey and cream tasted and just as thick and rich.
He followed it hungrily as he grew closer the desire became animalistic. He closed in fast to find what looked like a fight in a parking lot. A man was thrown into a parked car, another swore and ran off, the third who tried to run off as well but was grabbed by an enormous man. The large man held his captive up by his shirt collar and roared angrily into his face. The man that was thrown into the car had something in his hand that he threw into the large man’s head, splitting the skin there. This only angered him more. He threw his captive at one of the fallen men. In that moment the soft evening breeze swept past the large man and to Anthony senses. That intoxicating smell came from the large man, his blood was the source.

Anthony dove in, jumping on the large man. They snarled and fought, the two injured men wasted no time taking the opportunity to escape. Anthony found an opening and sunk his teeth into the side of the giant man’s throat. The man grabbed at Anthony’s head to try and pull him off but to no avail. The man slowly ceased fighting, grew calm, and then went lax. Sighing contently. Anthony had his fill and stood up to step away and found that everything was swaying and he stumbled and tried to focus. He felt intoxicated, something he never experienced to this degree. He looked back around down at the giant man who had fallen to the ground unmoving, Anthony asked what he was then collapsed next to the giant man. Before Anthony passed out he heard the man reply weakly, ‘A monster.’ and everything went black.


Anthony woke up in a messy home. There was an unpleasant smell underneath the delicious one from before. The giant man was still covering up windows with blankets, it was daytime now. Anthony asked what happened cautiously as he observed the man. He must have been at least 7 ft tall, his arms were massive and his hands impossibly large. He had a slight hunch to his posture and his head seemed smaller in proportion to the rest of him as well as his face seemed oddly out of off proportion as well but he couldn’t place how. And he wasn’t raging anymore. He introduced himself as Osmin. He apologized for what had happened. He explained he couldn’t help it. Anthony asked what he was-- his scent told Anthony he was not fully human. Osmin said again, a monster-- and then clarified that his grandmother told him his father was an angel. But when an angel and a human conceive, the offspring is inhuman, a monstrosity. Osmin’s body fights itself because it isn’t human and it isn’t angel. He has 'flare ups' of terrible pain and it triggers episodes of incredible rage. He was having a particular hard day, after trying to work through the pain at the warehouse where he worked, he assaulted his supervisor after getting chewed out, he left knowing he wouldn’t have the job anymore and when he discovered the cat he fed nightly dead on the curb near his house, he attacked the nearest men assuming it was them. He knew now it wasn’t the case and that he screwed up royally. But when Anthony bit him, it subdued him, the pain left and he was stable again. He carried the passed out Anthony into his house.

Osmin lives alone in the house his grandmother left to him amongst the plants he grew. But it was small and cramped, especially for Osmin. He was worried now how he was going to afford to live anywhere. His grandmother set him up with that last job through a friend of hers. No one would hire him after they saw him. Anthony said he might know someone who’d hire him. And Mikail did with strong interest in what Osmin was. Later, Osmin and Anthony became roommates so that they’d be closer to work and Osmin would have a place he could stand up straight in.
One night, after a particular painful day for Osmin, he had another angry episode. Broke some things and ended up cutting himself accidentally. Living with someone who smelled like he did was hard. Anthony made sure to drink more supplied blood and eat more raw meats to curb his craving for Osmin’s blood but it didn’t stop him from reacting to Osmin’s spilled blood at this time. He pounced on Osmin and bit him. Just like before, he was subdued, his rage subsided and he relaxed and sunk into the couch as Anthony drank from him. When he had his fill Anthony flopped down next to him. An unspoken agreement passed through them there. When Osmin was hurting, Anthony would take the pain away and feed. The deluded demonic creature of blood and the imperfect being of heaven and earth became completely reliant on each other.

About The Den

As well as being the title to the headworld Mikail and other characters are in, The Den is also the name of Mikail's nightclub, as well as his base of operations. It's really popular, a mixture of supernatural creatures living incognito and (mostly) unsuspecting humans. A lot of dealings and a good hold on the monster/supernatural community takes place here and it spreads even out of state. So The Den is a hub of sorts. Any business is carried out in the back in Mikail's study/office. The Den is complete with bouncers, “colleagues”, agents, staff, etc. Supernatural folk and human folk alike. Some of the employed humans more aware than others. Mikail directly owns a lot of property and businesses in the area. His people go into city officials and government jobs in the area too. It's pretty deep. Everyone he's associated with within his group he considers family, a strange quirk of his. Ranging from normal humans, gifted humans, and a variety of beings.
