n a dreary land, deep inside the woods, one may find themselves at the door of an abandoned manor. Few even make it to this point but those who choose to enter are often found wandering the woods later in a disoriented state. That's because the manor "belongs to" a snarky demon named Callisto who does not take too kindly to strangers invading his abode (but in all actuality, a curse was placed upon him, binding him to the manor). nlynly other resident is Auro, a very timid, young vampire who has taken residency in the castle to hide away from human society. The two live in general harmony with one another, as long as Auro continues to bow down to Callisto's superiority complex and brings him food.

Much to Callisto's dismay, Auro is a huge softie who can barely bring himself to consume blood. He often questions how the vampire even survives with his clumsiness, kindess and reluctance to drink blood. The only visitors they ever have willingly are Auro's older brother, Viktor and self-proclaimed servant of Callisto, Mordrake. Any unwelcome visitors either get lost in the forest or, if they make it to the manor, are usually intercepted by Mordrake and hypnotized to forget its existence.

Auro typically stays in the castle with Callisto while Viktor goes out and lives among the humans to gather information. Since Auro doesn't usually hunt humans, Viktor and Mordrake are often tasked with bringing him blood. Blood packs make him sick if he thinks about the humans they came from too hard and he refuses to drinks animal blood. He's a huge animal lover though so that also makes him sick to think about. Overall kind of a useless vampire and is known as such...
