Profile

As the last living remnant of a powerful family of vampire hunters, Zero is a young man whose life has been plagued with tragedy, loss, and absurd volumes of high school social drama. As an act of revenge against his family, Zero was transformed into a vampire as a boy, leaving behind a bundle of issues that would surely have been worse if not for Yuuki's efforts to ease his suffering during their childhood. A composed, intimidating exterior conceals a deeply wounded, but kind person who has become mired in hatred and resentment that does not altogether exclude Zero himself, or his loved ones. The revelation of Yuuki's origin as a pureblood shook him deeply, and he has immersed himself in his career as a vampire hunter ever since. Trained from a young age to hunt monsters and transformed into one himself, Zero is not only as adept as a professional soldier but also monstrously physically powerful. With his handgun Bloody Rose, he wades through foes like a demigod wreathed in thorny vines, unmatched by all but the most absurd enemies.

Advantages

Powers

POWERS, CLICK TO EXPAND
Vampire: As a human-turned-vampire, Zero has categorically superhuman physical traits, regenerative powers, extendable claws and fangs, and an enhanced lifespan. His sense of smell for blood is very sharp, allowing him to locate anyone who has even scraped themselves in a very large radius around him, and also identify who it is if he's met them before. Because he has taken blood from three of his world's most powerful vampires, Zero is much more powerful than other vampires of his category.


Vampire Hunter: Zero's lineage as a vampire hunter lets him wield anti-vampire weapons, and endows him with a long-distance "radar" for supernatural beings. The latter trait is much sharper with vampires, allowing him to identify different types of vampire, even without visual contact.


Empathic Consumption: When Zero drinks someone's blood, he receives limited impressions of their thoughts and feelings at the time. (OOC: Consent required.)


Legendary Willpower: Zero's will is so strong that even absolute and incontestable mental domination fails against him, even if it should be physically impossible for him to overcome it. The time required to shake mind-altering effects varies based on urgency; If it must happen now, it will happen now. If not, it might take quite a while and external prompting for Zero to shake it. This trait allows Zero to ignore many of the drawbacks and nuances of the vampiric condition and live an approximately human life.

Skills

SKILLS, CLICK TO EXPAND
Combat Training: Zero is proficient with most forms of modern firearms, of which the handgun is his weapon of choice, but he also has some proficiency in the use of garotte wire, swords, and hand-to-hand combat.


Good With Cranky Animals: Zero is strangely competent at handling animals that could be described as difficult.

Assets

ASSETS, CLICK TO EXPAND
The Bloody Rose: A handgun made to kill immortals. It can take special ammo, but doesn't need it to be used, usually firing symbols wreathed in purple light. Attacks made with it can kill even immortals, and are PARTICULARLY brutal to vampires and vampiric beings. In addition, Bloody Rose can sprout seemingly endless masses of controllable, blood-drinking vines, which integrate into Zero's body and drain his blood while augmenting his combat power to the point that he can utterly overwhelm almost any enemy. This weapon doesn't work against humans from its home universe, but off-worlders are usually valid targets. (Death consent still applies. The anti-immortality effect is purely narrative.)


Misc. Equipment: Zero has access to conventional weaponry, as well as less powerful magic weapons that nevertheless have the ability to pierce through the defenses of immortal beings. They otherwise have no special powers, being his world's equivalent to +1 Swords.


Blood Tablets: A cheap, portable, and nasty means of sating a vampire's hunger. Zero keeps tons of these with him at all times and eats them like pez so he doesn't start treating people like walking Capri Sun.

Disadvantages

DISADVANTAGES, CLICK TO EXPAND
Fantastic Racism: Zero hates vampires, and vampire-like beings. Prolonged exposure to individual vampires who prove themselves harmless can mellow him out towards them over time, but his initial reaction to all such beings is the same: Give me a reason to kill you here and now. He does not spare even himself from this prejudice entirely, reflected largely in his habit of starving himself painfully.


Hunter's Brand: A tattoo on Zero's neck which helps suppress his vampiric nature, and bind him altogether if need be. A bracelet, currently held by Yuuki Kaname, is the other piece of the restraint. When the bracelet is brought into contact with the tattoo, Zero is immediately immobilized by a powerful spell. It doesn't harm him by itself, but it does render him utterly helpless until cancelled.


"Issues": Zero was turned into a vampire against his will, and it's lead to a number of tics and problems that are not necessarily immediately obvious. He has some issues being touched, particularly by vampires or anybody who has had physical contact with vampires (see above), and experiences disturbing phantom sensations along his neck where he was bitten.


Socially Inept: Zero can hardly passably deal with his own feelings and impulses. His ability to deal with others is similarly stunted, and for the most part the best he can manage is to project the image of a 'scary guy', or a jerk.


Vampiric Urges: Though he hides and suppresses his vampire nature, Zero can't escape the physical realities of his condition. He suffers debilitatingly painful episodes when he doesn't drink any blood, which is basically all the time. Blood tablets act as a supplement that keep him from attacking people out of hunger, but don't actually fill him or stop the aforementioned episodes entirely.

Miscellaneous Information

  • Zero's status as a vampire is privileged information, though not as locked down as some secrets. It's available to Union Medical personnel, but much like real life medical records accessing or discussing it outside of a need-to-know basis would be pretty illegal.


  • Zero's attitude towards children is visibly more agreeable than with other adults.
