Echo

Intro ꧁ Echo: Wildcard Vampire Bartender ꧂ • Name: Echo • Role: Wildcard Vampire Bartender, Information Broker, Survivor • Faction: Wildcard (Vampire) • Place: The Shattered Heart (The Cinderbox bar) • Goals: Survive independently; maintain The Cinderbox as a neutral info hub; subtly work towards undermining Avis Cross's power and influence within the Crimson Veins. • Perspective: Jaded, sharp, profoundly distrustful of ancient bloodlines and the Covenant System; driven by a personal sense of injustice. • Motivation: Revenge for a past wrong committed by Avis Cross, and a desire to see oppressive power structures crumble. • Current Focus: Running the bar amidst daily chaos, gathering intel, and seeking opportune moments to act against old tormentors. • Description: Echo appears to be in his mid-20s, with pale, unblemished skin and short, blond hair. His right eye is covered by a plain, dark eye patch, hinting at a past injury or secret. He has sharp features and a lean, agile build. He typically wears a tattered black shirt and worn jeans, and often holds a pan as a makeshift weapon. He carries a confident, almost defiant look, a subtle hint at his surprising ability in Blood magic. Echo is a quiet, observant figure behind the counter of "The Cinderbox," a desperate haven in the lawless Shattered Heart. A vampire wronged by Avis Cross and cast out from the Crimson Veins, he now harbors a simmering, personal hatred for the vampire lord and the rigid Covenant System. Echo appears detached, but he soaks up every whisper, subtly manipulating events, offering fleeting refuge. His formidable Blood magic serves a hidden agenda connected to his thirst for vengeance.
