Summary
Respecful, Formal, Enthusiastic, Distant, Passive, Humble, Eccentric.
Formal English vampire is actually a giant dork in disguise.
Christian's first impressions are always formal, having been born into an English aristocratic family in the late 1600's. He had formal burnt into his brain and was always told/expected to leave a good impression. In present day he has loosened up a fair bit, but he still retains his formalities. He also has the old "once you've gotten to know him he loosens up a bit more".
Will rarely talk about personal things, tends to keep things about himself to..himself. However he will talk your ear off about his interests if you let him.
Loves literature and music and does both in his spare time. Can and will make violin/cello versions of classic rock songs.
He's a kind and welcoming being, and doesn't like driving others away unless he's super uncomfortable. Unfortunately it also means he can be too polite for his own good, even if it means sacrificing his own comfort on occasion.
Was previously used to leading a solitary life due to what he is, though it drastically changed in the past (literal) decade after gaining a handful of close friends and lovers. Can't fathom being alone again.
While coming across as passive and nonconfrontational, he's perfectly capable of holding his own and harbours a cold, calm, intimidating presence when something crosses the line. Deceptively not a pushover.
Vampirism
Spilled blood won't trigger a raging vampiric beast mode, nor will open wounds.
Has a double set of fangs akin to the ones seen in the Vampire Chronicles films.
Is able to fly and teleport around with ease; is incredibly agile.
Heightened physical strength despite his misleading appearance. Could pick up and toss your fridge if he wanted to. Amusingly is not a fighter and cannot physically fight to save his life. Is more of an ambush hunter.
Rapid regeneration, physical injuries are basically nothing to him providing it isn't holy damage. Does have a limit and the ability can be worn down eventually.
Telepathic, though the ability was dormant for centuries and he isn't as proficient in it. Wouldn't use it without the consent of others though. Currently discovering he also has telekinesis alongside said telepathy.
Uniquely does not have a weakness to sunlight due to his sire being of vampiric royalty. Said "royal" blood also turns all his powers up to 11.
Weak to garlic and holy things (holy water, cruxifixes, holy magic etc). Being around garlic gives him a hayfever/allergic type reaction. Holy magic/objects will burn him upon physical contact and he cannot use his regeneration to heal it. Instead said wounds heal slowly like a human. If thrown into a church he experiences an increasing sense of dread and anxiety.
He will not speak of his transformation nor does he like stating he has "royal" vampire blood/powers. He's quietly incredibly self conscious about the fact that he's able to go in the sun, however he also utilises it to help him appear "human".
Won't openly talk about his vampirism to mortals unless he highly trusts them. This is mostly due to him being worried about either scaring the other or just knowing what humans can be like when it comes to vampires. (He'll talk about vampires, but he won't talk about himself being one.) If someone suspects him of being one, he'll attempt to brush it off. He'll openly talk about it with other vampires though. Not sure about other supernatural beings.
Is not afraid to kill, but tends to avoid innocents.
A majority of himself has accepted the fact that he's a monster; making peace with the idea long ago. However as a consequence of meeting other vampires in the present day it's partially given him an existential crisis after having tried to live as humanly as possible for centuries (not asking or wanting to be turned will do that to you).
He still enjoys vampiric life unless he thinks about it too hard and wonders if he should even be enjoying certain things.
Survives solely off blood and hunts around once a month in order to sustain himself. Human food is not good for him, and while he can still taste and ingest it, not long afterwards he will throw it up again because he can't digest it. Has completely lost the appeal of, and desire to eat human food and would only do so in an effort to try and blend in with any human company that's not in the know.
