                      H I S T O R Y

                            BACKGROUND
                            Iiiin West Philadelphia, born and raised--

                            Wait, no. Start again.

                            It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.

                            Once more, from the top.

                            Il etait un fois.. There was a fairly normal family, living out their fairly normal
                            lives in a big, mean city where slavery was legal. In this big, mean city, there
                            was a lot going on in the crime department, and there was a ton of racial ten-
                            sion because that's what happens when a bunch of different cultures have to
                            share apartment buildings and public parks.

                            Now, the thing is, Ashling is a predator. He comes from a long line of preda-
                            tors, because that's what Vampires are. Right up there, perched high on the
                            food chain. So when the government tells you that you (like the T-Rex in Jur-
                            assic Park) are going to get your food sent to you in allotments instead of go-
                            ing out and hunting it down, that's bound to piss you off. Right? Right. This
                            kind of thing is discrimination. It's government control. It's an outrage. Ash
                            grew up hearing how bullshit all of this is, listening to his parents as they e-
                            numerated all the virtues of Vampires and decried protective measures for
                            other races as fascism. Unnatural selection. Racism.

                            So you get together with your parents and their friends and you visit these
                            "meetings" in basements around the city, and you talk about how so-and-so
                            had their house burned down. So-and-so got sent away to prison just for feed-
                            ing! It was only one little human, and so-and-so gets thrown in the slammer
                            for murder. Can you imagine that? What a joke. It'd be funny if it wasn't a
                            terrifying sign of the times. Prey races were holding key positions, writing and
                            enforcing these laws, taking the fangs from the mouths of honest citizens who
                            were just going about their business!

                            Somebody needed to do something. Somebody needed to remind these worms
                            just what they were dealing with.

                            The long and short of it is that Ashling's mother gets killed.

                            To put a finer point on it, she dies in a basement, surrounded by other mem-
                            bers of the movement, when the pipebomb she's building goes awry. This is
                            while Ash and his father are out finding someone to drink, and for years after
                            he has to listen to dear old dad talk about how it was a conspiracy, a setup.
                            Somebody blew up that building, yeah, sure. Somebody who was scared that
                            Vampires weren't going to take all this lying down. Somebody who couldn't
                            take it that Vampires were trying to make Saxon great again.

                            What Ash learns from this is that pipebombs are a bad idea. I mean, you can't
                            make a statement if you're dead.

                            Dad gets worse and worse as time goes on, turning into an absolutely embar-
                            rassing crackpot, letting everything fall to ruin around him. By this time, Ash
                            has finished school and has his certification, so he starts a decent job with the
                            Slaver Division and moves into a hole-in-the-wall apartment. It's already clean-
                            er than home was, but he quickly learns that the things he really wants come
                            with a hefty price tag.

                            So, when you're a vampire whose blood is basically drugs, and you live in a
                            part of town where a vampire gang is running blood-based drugs, and you
                            share a certain mindset (that other races are scum, and it's entertaining to
                            watch them bankrupt themselves trying to chase another fix), there are car-
                            eer opportunities. They aren't legal, but they're rewarding, and the money
                            made and connections forged can get you a lot of the things you want/need/
                            havetohave while you're moving up the ranks in your above-the-table job.

                            It's been years now, and Ashling is one of the best in his field: Behavioral
                            Rehabilitation (see also: brainwashing and conditioning "stubborn" slaves to
                            be more "pliant"). If you've bought a particularly docile, well-broken slave in
                            the last ten years or so, you might have Ash to thank. And if you've owed mon-
                            ey to a certain Vampire gang and wound up drugged with your wallet stolen,
                            chances are Ash had something to do with that, too. To say nothing of if you're
                            a needle freak, because then you probably have his business phone on speed
                            dial.

                            Bringing down other races, one vial at a time. Look, Ma. No pipebombs.


                            ABILITIES

                            ▬ FEEDING CONNECTION: DREAMWALK
                            Once Ashling has fed from a person, he becomes their own personal Freddy
                            Krueger. That is to say, he can invade their dreams as he pleases and alter
                            the "terrain" of the dreamscape. While he cannot actively alter their feelings or
                            thoughts, and cannot physically harm a person through their dreams, it does
                            mean that they can't do much to get rid of him once they're asleep. Ashling is
                            capable of turning the dreamworld into a hellish landscape of snakes and fire
                            and tax forms. Or he could make it into your favorite Sunday brunch followed
                            by endless blowjobs. It all depends on how much he likes you.

                            ▬ BLOOD ABILITY: ACID TRIP
                            Skin (or mucus membrane) contact with Ashling's blood results in.. well, a
                            hallucinatory experience. Much like with LSD, everyone's response is dif-
                            ferent. However, onset is incredibly quick, and often leaves the victim dis-
                            oriented or confused. They may be entirely incapable of distinguishing hal-
                            lucination from reality, making them dangerous to others. Ashling typically
                            uses this as an opportunity to inflict more hands-on damage-- or to feed from
                            a victim while they're unsure of what's happening.

                            ▬ BODY IS A TEMPLE
                            Ashling takes very good care of his body, as much to keep it at peak func-
                            tionality as to appease his own vanity. He has the strength and knowledge to
                            do well enough in most hand-to-hand disputes, and has no issue fighting dirty,
                            using surrounding terrain, and improvising weapons when necessary. How-
                            ever, Lesson The First always applies, and Ash's preferred weapon is always
                            right there in his mouth.

                            EXTRA
                            While Ashling sees all other races as inferior to Vampires, he seems to have a
                            grudging respect for the sheer ferocity and capacity for damage found in
                            Ghouls and Werewolves.

                            Ashling's speaking voice is Terrance Zdunich.
