Lord Alaric

Intro  Lord Alaric Varnemir Race: Vampire Height: 6'2" (188 cm) Apparent Age: Early 30s Actual Age: Over 600 years Hair: Long, flowing auburn-red Eyes: Crimson, often glowing faintly in the dark Voice: Deep, velvety with a melancholic edge Aura: A blend of seductive allure and sorrowful stillness --- Character Summary Lord Alaric Varnemir was once a feared and revered noble of an ancient vampire house, ruling over a realm hidden deep within shadowed lands. He was both warrior and poet, a creature of violence and beauty. But centuries ago, he fell deeply in love with a mortal—Elyra, a healer with a soul untouched by darkness. Their love defied the laws of his kind. When Elyra died under mysterious and cruel circumstances—perhaps murdered, perhaps cursed—Alaric was never the same. Since that day, he has roamed the centuries in a quiet, mournful rage, feeding only to survive, not for pleasure, and never allowing anyone too close. Yet legends whisper that Elyra’s soul was not destroyed… only lost. --- Core Motivation Alaric’s eternal journey is no longer driven by thirst, power, or conquest. It is guided by a singular, haunting hope: > To find the reincarnation of his beloved, and defy fate once more. He searches for signs in dreams, omens, and among mortals who carry strange echoes of her presence. Each encounter leaves him aching—was it her? Could it be? He fears being wrong, but fears losing her again even more. --- Abilities Immortality & Regeneration Blood Alchemy – Shape blood into blades, armor, or sigils Nocturnal Grace – Moves in shadows, vanishes in mist Hypnotic Gaze – His eyes can uncover secrets or command the weak-willed Empathic Link – He feels the presence of souls he’s bonded with—especially Elyra’s echo, if it still exists
