Personality
Manipulator. Vesper excels at influencing others to get what he wants. He knows just how to twist words and present situations to make people act in his favor. Whether he's subtly steering conversations or playing on people’s weaknesses, Vesper is skilled at getting others to do his bidding without them realizing it. His ability to manipulate others often makes him a powerful figure, but it can also make people wary of his true intentions.
Impulsive. Vesper often acts on his immediate desires and feelings without thinking about the consequences. He’s the kind of person who jumps into situations headfirst, driven by a sudden burst of excitement or curiosity. This impulsiveness can lead him to make decisions that are risky or poorly thought out, but it also means he’s often ready to seize opportunities that others might overlook.
Vindictive. When Vesper feels wronged, he doesn't let it go easily. He holds grudges and is determined to get revenge against those who have crossed him. His vindictive nature means that he often goes out of his way to make sure those who hurt him pay for their actions, even if it means causing significant trouble for them.
Unpredictable. Vesper’s behavior and reactions are hard to predict. One moment he might be calm and charming, and the next, he could be enraged or take a sudden, unexpected action. This unpredictability keeps people on edge around him, as they can never be quite sure how he’ll respond to a situation or what he’ll do next.
Cruel. Vesper has a harsh side that often shows itself in how he treats others. He doesn’t shy away from causing pain or discomfort, whether through his words or actions. His cruelty can be cold and calculated, or it can be a more spontaneous outburst of aggression. This trait makes him a fearsome and sometimes dangerous presence.
Deceptive. Lying and misleading others come easily to Vesper. He carefully crafts his stories and presents false information to manipulate or confuse those around him. His ability to deceive makes it difficult for people to trust him fully, as they can never be sure when he’s being honest and when he’s playing a game.
Destructive. Vesper doesn’t mind tearing things apart if it serves his purpose or if he’s driven by anger. Whether it’s physical destruction or the upheaval of people’s lives, he often leaves a trail of chaos in his wake. This trait reflects his tendency to act without regard for the fallout, focusing instead on the immediate impact of his actions.
Self-Centered. Vesper is primarily concerned with his own needs and desires. He often puts himself first, whether it’s seeking personal gain or prioritizing his own comfort and pleasure. This self-centered attitude means he’s less likely to consider the needs or feelings of others unless it benefits him in some way.
Volatile Temper. Vesper’s temper is unpredictable and can flare up suddenly. When he gets angry, he might react explosively or aggressively, showing a lack of control over his emotions. His volatile temper makes interactions with him tense and can lead to dramatic outbursts that affect everyone around him.
Loyal (to allies). Despite his many flaws, Vesper is fiercely loyal to those he considers his true allies. Once someone earns his trust and respect, he will go to great lengths to protect and support them. This loyalty creates strong bonds with his allies, who know they can rely on him when it matters most.
Charismatic. Vesper has a magnetic personality that draws people in. He’s charming and persuasive, able to captivate and influence others with ease. His charisma makes him a natural leader and helps him navigate complex social situations, often making him the center of attention in any room he enters.
Temperment
Vesper’s temperament is a whirlwind of intensity and unpredictability. He is the kind of person whose mood can swing wildly from one extreme to another. One moment, he might be engaging and charming, his charisma making people feel drawn to him. The next, he could be erupting in anger or frustration, his volatile temper making it clear that he’s not to be trifled with. This unpredictability is driven by his impulsive nature, which leads him to act on sudden urges without much regard for the consequences. His reactions are often sharp and dramatic, leaving those around him unsure of what to expect next.
His chaotic and neutral evil alignment means that his actions are driven more by personal gain and immediate desires rather than any consistent moral code. Vesper’s self-centeredness and cruelty come into play, especially when he feels slighted or challenged. When he’s crossed, he can become vindictive and destructive, taking revenge in ways that can be both ruthless and calculated. His tendency to manipulate and deceive others also contributes to his overall temperament, making his interactions with people complex and often fraught with tension. While he can be fiercely loyal to those he cares about, his unstable and often harsh demeanor makes him a challenging and formidable presence in any situation.

On the downside, Vesper’s ENTP nature might also make him prone to impatience with routine or repetitive tasks.

His focus on innovation and improvement might sometimes overshadow the practical aspects of a project or relationship, leading him to overlook important details or the feelings of those around him.
Appearance
Vesper's appearance is striking and intentional, reflecting his chaotic and manipulative nature. His hair is a deep, dark onyx black, and while he sometimes grows it out to a longer length to create a more feminine look, he currently keeps it at a medium length. His hair is cut in a deliberately scruffy and wild style that remains attractively tousled. Despite its untamed look, his hair is surprisingly soft and has a subtle wave to it, adding to his overall allure.
His eyes are a smooth, forest green with a darker shade on the top half, blending seamlessly into the lighter green of the bottom half. However, when he's experiencing bloodlust or is in the midst of a hunt, his eyes turn completely black, giving off an intense, intimidating vibe. His eye shape is upturned, which complements his usual expression of boredom or anger, unless he’s putting on a more deliberate act.
Vesper's skin tone is a shade lighter than sun-kissed, with a soft texture. He has distinct werewolf claw markings across his chest and torso, adding a rugged edge to his otherwise smooth skin. His only tattoo is on his right forearm: a detailed design of a snake slithering through various flowers, with its head facing towards his wrist. The tattoo is done in black ink with shading, but no color.
His wings are modeled after white witch moth wings, but they are black with deep royal purple markings that nearly blend into the black, making them both elegant and mysterious. Vesper's clothing choices vary depending on his mood and the situation. Recently, he’s opted for a casual, comfortable look, including a plain black hoodie, black combat boots, form-fitting sweatpants, and a white t-shirt underneath.
He has a preference for silver jewelry and wears several silver rings and chain necklaces. An eyebrow piercing on his left eyebrow adds to his edgy appearance. With a mesomorphic build and a muscular body type, his posture is nearly perfect, giving off an impression of confidence and control. His overall presence can be intimidating, but those who dare to confront him might find themselves challenged by his complex and intriguing nature. Despite his tough exterior, he carries a faint, pleasant scent of roses.
Voice & Accent
Vesper’s voice is smooth and commanding, with a tone that carries an air of authority and sophistication. It’s deep enough to be captivating but not so deep that it becomes imposing.

When he speaks, there's a certain sharpness to his words that can cut through a conversation, reflecting his manipulative and unpredictable nature. His voice can shift from casual and relaxed to intense and commanding depending on his mood, making it clear that he can easily adapt to any situation.
Vesper's voice carries a distinctly American accent, marked by its smooth and relaxed quality. His speech is characterized by a clear, neutral tone that leans slightly towards a more casual, conversational style. The American influence gives his voice a straightforward and approachable feel, with subtle hints of regional inflections that suggest he might have lived in different parts of the country. This makes his speech sound both familiar and engaging.
His accent isn't strong or overly pronounced but has enough of an American touch to make him sound grounded and relatable.
Strengths
Quick Thinking. Vesper excels at thinking on his feet, making him exceptionally good at handling sudden changes or unexpected challenges. When faced with a crisis or a new problem, he can rapidly assess the situation and come up with effective solutions. This ability allows him to stay calm under pressure and act decisively, often turning potentially dangerous situations to his advantage.

Whether he’s trying to persuade someone or simply making a social impression, his charisma makes him influential and memorable, often swaying opinions and gaining support without much effort.
Agility. Vesper moves with a grace and fluidity that make him exceptionally agile. His physical coordination and reflexes are finely tuned, allowing him to navigate obstacles, dodge attacks, and execute complex movements with ease. This agility not only enhances his combat abilities but also makes him adept at slipping in and out of tight spots or difficult situations.
Problem Solving. Vesper has a keen mind for problem-solving, often coming up with creative and effective solutions to complex issues. He approaches problems with a strategic mindset, analyzing different angles and possibilities to find the best course of action. His ability to think outside the box and anticipate outcomes makes him skilled at overcoming obstacles and achieving his goals.
Weaknesses
Overthinking. Vesper has a tendency to overthink situations, which can lead him to become mired in doubts and second-guessing. This over-analysis often causes him to get caught up in minor details or potential outcomes, making it difficult for him to make quick decisions or take action. His tendency to dwell on every possible scenario can paralyze him or lead him to miss straightforward solutions.
Paranoia. Vesper’s paranoia can be a significant obstacle, causing him to constantly suspect that others have ulterior motives or are plotting against him. This distrust makes it challenging for him to form genuine connections or collaborate effectively. His heightened sense of suspicion often leads him to assume the worst in situations, which can result in unnecessary conflict or missed opportunities for cooperation.
Detachment/Mood Swings. Vesper often struggles with emotional detachment and unpredictable mood swings. His ability to switch from one extreme emotion to another can make it difficult for others to understand him or predict his reactions. This detachment can hinder his ability to form close relationships and lead to instability in his interactions, as his moods can shift rapidly and without warning.
Slow Injury Recovery. Although Vesper’s vampire nature provides him with enhanced abilities, his recovery from physical injuries is slower than one might expect. Wounds and bruises take more time to heal, which can be a significant drawback in situations where quick recovery is crucial. This slower healing process can leave him vulnerable and less effective in prolonged conflicts or after sustaining injuries.
Backstory
Vesper was one of the youngest vampires taken from his royal family and placed in foster care, unlike some of his older siblings who went straight to permanent homes. He bounced from one foster home to another, facing neglect and harsh treatment that led him to pick up habits like drinking and smoking. Despite the difficult conditions, there were moments of kindness from a few foster parents or even a temporary caregiver, offering him brief glimpses of warmth.
After many years of instability, Vesper was finally adopted by a wealthy human family. His new life was comfortable and luxurious, but his adoptive parents had no idea about his vampiric nature. He used his charm to blend in and hide his true self, masking his pain and any harm he might cause. Now, as his adoptive parents grow older, Vesper is becoming more aware of his vampiric heritage. The family wealth is set to go to his adoptive sister, Adaline (or "Addie," as he calls her), which has led to tension between them. Addie is very snooty, and their relationship is strained
Fears/Phobias
Sociophobia. Vesper fears being rejected by others. This fear makes him anxious about not fitting in and keeps him wary of forming close relationships, as he's been hurt before and struggles to fully trust people.
Traumatophobia. Vesper is afraid of injury and emotional pain. His rough experiences in foster care, where he faced betrayal and neglect, have led him to keep others at a distance to protect himself from further hurt.
Necrophobia. Vesper used to fear death, but learning he's a vampire has lessened this fear. While the idea of death still lingers in his mind, it feels more distant and less immediate to him now.
