Current Information

-------------------

>family background

His father was a scientist specializing in genetics and vampire anatomy. His mother was a violin teacher. Roen currently has a living step-father, whom he's never met, an older step-sister with whom he used to be very close to, and five half-sisters that want nothing to do with him.

>birth place

Underground city, as which has yet to be named. 

>history, background

Roen started life off in what seemed to be a perfect family. He was very loved and very well taken care of. When he was 10, however, his father received a commission from the Counsel, the leaders of the government of the city, to investigate the unique traits that had surfaced for some of the oldest vampires in the city. After a few months of work, Roen's father failed to return from work. He had locked himself in his lab and basically abandoned his family, too wrapped up in his research to even come home.

Two years later, when Roen was 12, his mother suffered a psychotic break due to the separation from the man she loved. She all but destroyed their home, and then attacked Roen, completely out of her mind. Someone outside the home heard the commotion and intervened, and got Roen to a hospital for his injuries. 

Roen stayed in a coma for a few months before finally recovering. Once he was awake, and fit to return home, he did so.... and arrived to a completely empty, decrepit house. His mother had destroyed the house and left, to where he had no idea, but he had nowhere to go and no one to turn to. For another two and a half years, Roen looked out for himself, scavenging the best he could. Due to poor nutrition, his growth was stunted, and he remained quite small.

Just before his fifteenth birthday, an old teacher of his decided to drop by, as she had no idea of the events that had occurred. Seeing Roen as he was, she took him into her home, and cared for him... perhaps a little too much. Desperate for the love and attention that had been taken away from him so harshly, and longing for any kind of contact after being utterly alone for so long, Roen was eager to do anything asked of him. It was then he began seeing sex as a way to get attention, to get love. 

Not long after, he also became involved with his teacher's son, and developed somewhat of a 'relationship' with him. The two sheltered and fed Roen, and took utmost care of him.

A few weeks before Roen's 16th birthday, however, he was approached by his father, though he'd never though he'd see him again. His father explained that he was close to finalizing his research, and just needed a little bit of help. Afterwards, he said, the two of them would seek out his mother, and make their family whole again. Young, naive, and wanting his family back more than anything, Roen agreed, though he had no idea what to.

His father began by taking blood, skin, and marrow samples.... and then drugged his son and threw him into a small cage. Roen was kept there without food and water, until the day came when he became absolutely ravenous... his birthday. That day and every one after, Roen was pulled from the cage, strapped down to a table, and experimented on....extremely painfully. Once all was done for the day, he was drugged again, and pulled back and shoved into his cage. 

Still he was afforded no food, allowed to subsist only on small portions of blood every week or so, granted that his father actually remembered. His cage was small enough that he had to curl up around himself to fit, and he was never allowed out; not that he was alert enough to ask, or to even think about it. He was often soaked down with a high-powered hose to clean up any mess.

What he could only imagine was years passed... every day being tortured, his very DNA being toyed with. One day, however, is his haze, Roen saw his father take on a rare face of happiness. As he was removing the straps from Roen's arms, he had seen that the cuts he had earlier made weren't healing in the typical vampire fashion... His father left abruptly, neglecting to drug Roen, or even tie him back down. After hour upon hour, Roen regained his mind, and realized he had a chance to get away. 

Once free, he fled back to the home of the woman who had sheltered him before, not realizing the amount of time that had passed, and begged for her help. She agreed; unknown to Roen, however, she also had the sense to contact the Counsel and tell them of the work Roen's father was doing.

The labs were raided, and the man Roen once called his father was slaughtered on sight. Before he died, however, he managed to set his lab on fire.... all of his samples were destroyed, and the only salvageable evidence were his notes, all encoded. Most of the notes were quickly deciphered, but, by some stroke of luck, Roen's name was not mentioned in any of them; only the results of the tests, and plans for future tests.

However... Roen's mother WAS named, as was the unborn child she carried, in reference to an experiment the man had not yet carried out. The Council refused to take any chances, and ordered the woman's death. To this day, Roen blames himself unconditionally for her death, as does his remaining family - his mother's second husband and their daughters. 

Completely miserable and hating himself, Roen resorted to doing the one thing he knew would make him forget it all... he started hanging around bars, and on the streets, looking for people to sleep with. He became exceptionally skilled very quickly, and others began to take note of it. Soon, affluent men and women started seeking him out by name, and taking him home. In the very old-fashioned city, where male/male relationships were shunned and the 'female' of said relationships was considered unclean, male bottoms were difficult to find, and Roen quickly became well sought after. He became the 'mistress' of several men. He generally had his pick of partners, and chose the ones who would allow him to stay, sometimes a week or so at a time, over the ones who asked him to leave right after.

Roen, having been brought up in a sheltering family, typical of the city, had no idea what prostitution was... he didn't understand why his partners offered him money for what he himself enjoyed so much, and often turned it down; although, he adored getting gifts from his partners, and would often ask to be taught skills and such when offered whatever he wanted.

A few years later, a recently separated man approached him, and asked for his company for a while. All was well... until the man's wife came back in an attempt to fix things between them, and walked in on the two men. The woman reported him for prostitution and used her wealth and heritage as leverage to make the false accusation stick, and had Roen thrown into jail. 

The jail, more akin to a working camp, was Roen's nightmare... for the first time, his secret was threatened. Thanks to his father's work, he no longer possessed the strength they expected him to have, and couldn't keep up. To avoid being killed for being 'uncooperative', Roen sought out protection from the other prisoners, and, due to his skilled mouth and body, quickly became the favorite of one of the most powerful men there. 

For months, he tolerated being traded out by his 'protector' as currency, in exchange for alcohol, cigarettes, favors... all while planning his escape. Finally, he managed to seduce one of the guards, and make him fall in love, while pleading for help to get away from being used so much. When his pleading didn't quite work, he had to think of something more extreme. 

One night, he asked the guard to meet him at a specific time for sex; just minutes beforehand, though, he brought two other inmates to the same location, and gave them his permission to beat the shit out of him... just so long as they were long gone before the time the guard was supposed to arrive. To Roen's dismay, the men got carried away, and ended up not only beating him much more severely than intended, but they decided to use him while they were at it, while he was nearly unconscious. The guard arrived to a horrid scene... and proceeded in bludgeoning the two others nearly to death. (Roen still feels bad about that, but, hey, he warned them to leave before then)

The guard, head over heals in love with Roen, began to panic when he noticed Roen wasn't healing, and he knew he had to do something drastic, had to get him to a proper hospital. He picked Roen up, and merely walked out with him.

In the hospital, Roen played weak, but took off the instant he had a chance. Naturally, once he was out, he was free. The prison would never admit that they had allowed a prisoner to escape, especially not one so small and helpless, for fear of a larger revolt; so, all documentation of Roen's sentence was destroyed to save face. (It might have helped that the woman whose false claim had put him in jail was now divorced, and therefore shamed and humiliated and no longer of any credence.)

In the many, many years that followed, Roen never stopped doing what he did best. In his mind, his lovers cared for him, even if just in the little while they were together, and he felt as if it was the only way anyone would 'love' him. Any skills that would aid in seduction, he happily learned. Pole dancing, contortion, massage... he was more than eager. In his spare time, he earned money to support himself by bar-tending and stripping; he was careful never to take money for sex, although he still accepted gifts, as long as they weren't presented as payments. 

Roen never bothered to try and figure out how old he was, as it only brought back memories of the time he spend with his father; so he just estimated. That being said, his promiscuous lifestyle was brought to a sudden halt around his century mark. The last of his father's notes were finally cracked, and, sure enough, they singled Roen out as the one he'd been experimenting on.

He heard through one of his partners of the discovery; and he knew there was no point in running. Even if he wasn't a freak, there was no way he could outrun what he knew was coming for him.

So... he just waited. Silently. Accepting his death. 

When the man who was hired to kill him showed up in his house... it was to his utmost surprise that the man refused to kill him. Instead, the man, who went only by 'Alucard', took him in and protected him to the best of his abilities. Naturally, Roen tried to show his gratefulness the one way he knew how... and was immediately rejected. Again. And again. No matter how hard he tried, Ali wouldn't take his body. It infuriated Roen, but he eventually came to realize that, despite not wanting that part of him, Ali still cared about him. It was the first time since his family had been shattered than anyone had cared about Roen for something other than sex, and the two quickly became best friends, hardly separable.

They moved to the surface together, constantly changing locations to avoid pursuit, and, after about ten or so years, moved to where Ali could be closer to the woman he loved. Accidentally, Roen also found someone... a sweet, kind-hearted girl by the name of Sia, whom he absolutely fell in love with. For the first time, he didn't feel the need to have sex with someone just to earn their affection... Sia gave it willingly. Not long after, the two became engaged, and, eventually, ended up intimate, even though Roen was determined to wait. Sia became pregnant, and Roen, finally, felt complete happiness. He had a woman who loved him for who he was, instead of for what he could do... even though she didn't know of his past. And, above all, he couldn't wait to be a father. 

However... two days before their wedding, Sia left to do some last minute shopping, and never returned home. Roen panicked, and looked everywhere for her, to no avail. He was left imagining the worst... It was at this point in his life that he began to have problems with anxiety, began to have panic attacks and freak out over the smallest things.

About one year later, Sia returned, reluctantly confronting him but determined to let him know why she left. According to her story, the men that were after Roen knew where he was... but didn't dare approach as long as Alucard was by his side. Sia, however... had been caught out on her own, and it was known that she was carrying an abomination's child. Several of the men had attacked her, had nearly killed her, and would have succeeded had it not been for the intervention of a passerby. Sia managed to survive... but their child, she said, had not. Unable to face Roen, who had longed so much to be a father, she had run away. She apologized, but she no longer felt safe being with Roen. At that, she left again, and he hasn't heard from her since.

Needless to say, Roen went into a deep depression, became a recluse and refused to leave his self-induced isolation, despite Ali's gentle prodding. 

After another decade, Ali could no longer bare watching his friend's misery, and shipped the man off elsewhere, thinking that a complete change of scenery might help somewhat. 

Roen just did as he was told, and moved, but still kept to himself, unable to pull out of his depression... until a certain day when he randomly felt a little like his old self, and sought companionship. Having someone to match wits (and bodies) with again, he started to come back to life... and promptly fell head over heals in love once more. 

His relationship advanced quickly, growing to marriage within a few months. He greatly loved his husband, husband's twin brother, and that twin's boyfriend, and thought he had found his place in the world. His husband's sister volunteered to be a surrogate to have children for them, so that they could have a family together; before their twins could be born, though, Roen's husband found someone else that he apparently loved more. Roen was left on the streets with nothing to his name.

The depression hit heavily again, and Roen resorted once more to alcoholism, as well as to drowning his sorrows in sex with whomever he could, and occasionally drugs. 

As the depression became too much, and he was bordering on taking his own life, someone came into his life that managed to keep him from drowning. Roen refuses to say he's in love with his partner; what he feels for him was an instant addiction, and need that surpassed all else he felt. Even death could not compare to the peace he feels with Kizuato.
