Name: Jeremiah (Jerry) Viper
Age: 127 (looks about 25)
Picture:
Artist on dA: tarnishedhalo
Height: 5'8"
Appearance: He has piercing ice blue eyes that are characteristic of Viper Vampires, and they get darker the more he bloodlusts. Along with his pale, and ice cold skin, he has dark black hair that's cut shorter at the bottom, and left a little longer on top of his head to give him a sort of messy look when he's not wearing his black fedora. Jerry likes to change his facial hair style every few years, and currently has a line of facial hair around his jaw with a little soul-patch under his bottom lip that barely touches with the solid line of black facial hair. He likes wearing black clothing, and sometimes the occasional blue top. He loves leather jackets and leather boots with many buckles and straps, but he doesn't like heels or anything too feminine. When he feeds, his fangs elongate and curve down his chin much like snake fangs, hence the family name for vampires like him.
Personality: He's a bit headstrong and has a tough exterior. He acts like he's big news, even if by all standards he is a 'young' vampire. Jerry likes to joke around and doesn't like to take things too seriously unless the subject matter is close to his heart. He can be sweet and charming when he wants to be, though he doesn't like people treating him as if he were born yesterday, and has a tendancy to be violent towards those people. He has no hesitance when taking a life, though he does make sure that he isn't likely to be seen when he does so. He doesn't like to cause unecessary suffering though, and will try to kill quickly.
Family: All long dead, save for his sire; Natalia Viper who lives with her family in Russia.
Race: Turned "Viper" Vampire
Motives: To find some meaning to his seemingly eternal existance.
History: At the age of twenty-five, Jeremiah was talking a walk along the beach a couple miles from his family's plantation, and he saw a beautiful woman in a fur coat walking towards him in the moonlight. Her eyes were the most enchanting thing he had ever seen in his life, and as she neared him, she grinned, revealing two fangs that elongated down her jaw and looked like that of a snake's, but by then it was too late to run or call for help.
Natalia Viper grabbed him and drank his blood before she started to turn him into a vampire with her venom. It felt like a cooling soothing sensation and he passed out as the pain of turning ripped him away from the world for a few minutes that seemed like an eternity. He could feel a tie forming between them, but when he awoke, the beautiful girl was looking down at him with a frown. She told him that she had searched his mind, and he would serve her no good as a mate. The first blood he tasted was hers, and the bloodtie between them faded to only a fraction of what it had been.
Still serving as his mentor, Natalia showed him the ropes of being a vampire, and didn't want to be one of those sires who just lets their fledgelings run rampant without knowing the rules or how not to get killed in your first few years of this life by hunters and werewolves. Once she felt Jerry was ready, she cut him loose and they have hardly spoken since then.
In his second year of vampire life, he had made his first --and only-- fledgeling. He acted cold and indifferent to this new vampire he'd created, and though he did use his fledgeling for his own 'needs,' he was also as considerate as Natalia had been with his training, and guided the new vampire in much the same way. Before he had completed the training, though, the other vampire left him after drinking Jerry's blood when he slept so that the bloodtie would lessen. Jerry had wanted much what Natalia had wanted; a partner for all eternity, and suddenly he was gone.
Instead of chasing his fledgeling down, he moved up North by the Great Lakes where the land was cheap and fairly large. He started his work on what was to be a grand estate and has played his game of staying in one place very well. He's become quite accustomed to his lifestyle so far and often invites fellow vampires in the area over for parties or night games.
Powers: When he bites his victims, he literally startes to freeze his victim and by the time he drains someone completely of their blood, they are badly frost burnt and look a bit like a human popcicle. However, his bite is not felt by other Vipers, and usually even Viper hybrids are immune to the effects of the Viper bite. This is mostly true because the Vipers themselves are at a freezing temperature. He can cool the air around him slowly until it reaches thirty degrees below freezing. He's not old enough to make it colder than that, and he cannot do this in a short amount of time either, it takes him a while. He is stronger than any human, and faster as well, but he cannot just simply vanish out of sight to another location, nor can he use the power of shadows like a Ravi vampire to do so.
Other: He's very gay, but he does appreciate a woman's beauty.
