Severian's Biography |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
*I'm open to RP'ing whenever you want to start a mail exchange, so please, feel free. Basic courtesy: please don't attack me while I'm online, and I'll return the favor.* Name: Severian (Nickname: Sev) Birthdate: March 14, 1973 Turned: September 4, 1998, at age 25 Place of birth: Los Angeles, CA Height: 6'4" Weight and build: A lean and muscular 165. Eyes: When well-fed: a brilliant blue which slowly fades to a light gray as his thirst grows. Appearance: Favors black denim jeans, t-shirts, black boots and a black leather jacket. Hair - sandy/dirty/ash blond which falls several inches past his shoulders, usually worn loose, but worn pulled back in a tie when hunting. Skin complexion - still appears relatively tan from his time spent in the California sun. “Forget what you think you know, most of it is wrong anyway.” That's one of the best pieces of advice I've heard or been given. Like most people, I believed that vampires were a figment of imagination, and existed only in the mind of authors, TV scriptwriters, and movie makers. I know differently now, and my eyes have been opened to a world the “normals” don't know about. The obvious question is: How did I become a vampire? That story begins on September 4, 1998, when my view of reality changed forever. I was a graduate student at UCLA, and I had ridden my motorcycle (a Harley) down to Hollywood Boulevard that Friday night just to take in the sights and sounds of the famous street. I passed by the mouth of an alley, and a pair of strong hands pulled me into the darker shadows between two buildings. I fought and did everything I could to escape, but it was futile. My attackers were vastly stronger, and I soon felt two sharp jolts of pain as a pair of fangs entered my neck. My consciousness faded with every passing moment. The fangs were eventually withdrawn, and a bloody wrist was pressed to my mouth. As I hovered somewhere between life and death, someone whispered in my ear the following: "Drink my young one. I have been watching you, and I have chosen you." As I was in a weakened state both physically and mentally from the blood-loss, I followed that command without any resistance. Most of what happened immediately after that is one big blur, and I still don't remember much from that night. What I will say is that it's been an interesting ride. Part of the reason is my sire, whoever they were, decided to turn me and then left me. Maybe they wanted to see how I'd do on my own. All things considered, I think I've done well. I've never been angst-ridden about being turned. I simply didn't have time for that nonsense back then, and I still don't. I had to adapt, and I did – no choice. If you're wondering, I prefer fresh human blood straight from the source, and I did go through a phase where I killed people indiscriminately. Now? I don't always kill, but I'm not above it either. Of course, I've seen plenty of vampire movies, and I thought that a fiery end thanks to the sun was a given, - that or a stake. Then again, it was the movies, particularly 1922's release of Nosferatu, which introduced the idea that sunlight = death, and authors and movie makers ran with the idea. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a complete day-walker with full immunity. While I won't go up like a Roman candle on the 4th of July with my ashes scattering on the slightest breeze (which is just the magic of a special effects team), I usually try to avoid sunlight. With that said, it did take a few days for me to figure out that prolonged exposure to the direct rays of the sun will slowly sap my strength and energy and leave me lethargic. As a result, I'll become hungrier a lot faster in order to compensate. In addition, my eyes are much more photosensitive now, and I prefer to sleep during the day if I can, unless something requires me to be up during those hours. The whole coffin thing? That's just a stereotype. Being a native Californian, there are times when you might catch me out on a night where the light of the moon is reflected on the ocean's waves. Becoming a vampire may have changed a lot of things, but I still love to surf. Contrary to some popular portrayals, vampires don't always hang out in tapestry-lined castles, a glass of blood in hand, dressed in the most expensive tailored suits or something out of some prior century. That scene was never mine, and I prefer jeans and a t-shirt along with my leather jacket |
