Heaven Doesn't Want Me...

CHARACTER NAME: Vlad Dracula, AKA "D"
CHARACTER SERIES: Vampire: the Masquerade


[OOC]
Backtagging: Always OK
Threadhopping: Generally OK; ask if not sure
Fourthwalling: Actually he doesn't like this at all. As a player I don't mind, but he really dislikes the Stoker novel and all the kitschy vampire culture that has grown up around it.
Offensive subjects (elaborate): Rape, child molestation. Dracula himself isn't exactly enlightened on a few fronts: men probably shouldn't flirt with him, he's still not entirely comfortable around Muslims and he has no real remorse when it comes to his brutal form of justice.

[IC]
Hugging this character: He's from a pretty demonstrative culture, so he'll generally be OK with it if he knows and likes the character.
Kissing this character: Same as hugging, but he's a strictly woman-only guy. Men trying to push a kiss on him will meet with a rapidly escalating violent reaction. (This is as much from trauma as from upbringing.)
Flirting with this character: He loves female attention and can fairly easily be distracted by it. Anyone else who flirts with him will be coldly dismissed.
Fighting with this character: BRING IT ON. He loves combat as much as Emil Blonsky and will happily throw down against almost any challenger. Maiming and killing are opt-in, of course. If he is impressed enough by a character's combat prowess and the fight ends nonlethally, this is actually a good way to befriend him.
Injuring this character: Sure, whatever. It'll grow back.
Killing this character: This is really difficult to do, but if the scene is headed that way, talk to me OOC and I'll usually be fine with it.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Surface thoughts and emotions are always OK. Please contact me about digging into his memories, revealing his identity, making alterations, or any attempt at influencing his (very strong) will.

Warnings: Dracula is vengeful against those who threaten his protectorate, offend him or repel him with their behavior (generally extreme lawbreakers or the exploitive rich) and will use everything from hypnosis, to torture, to armies of rats, to get his point across. Therefore combat, body horror, mind control, bloody vengeance of various kinds and totalitarian rule are common subjects in RP with him. Needless to say, anything really nasty will be opt-in only, but interactions with him can still get pretty skin-crawly if the wrong topic comes up.



Dracula's a pretty complex character, and though I have played him for several years, I'm not perfect, and like every rper I have my off days. If something I have him do raises questions for you, please feel free to ask them here. Comments, fan links and plot ideas are all welcome as well. Anon is enabled.
