_____Vampires live off others and are therefore are considered symbionts, which are creatures who assimilate other races to spread their own kind. The erroneous and malevolent rumor that vampires create other vampires merely with their bite, is an only a partial truth. The creation of a vampire requires the transfer of vampiric blood to another being.
_____Another wide spread lie is that a vampire requires blood to live. A vampire lives eternally, with or without blood. Records tell about vampires living in exile, far away from all other kinds of life, to forget what they are or reflect about their life, write poems and pursue other arts without requiring the blood feast. Usually these are the more ancient ones of the race, strong enough to survive without fresh blood.
_____Blood is what makes a vampire powerful. A life force is granted to the vampires through the blood of their victims. The blood a vampire takes, influences their strength. A vampire is able to feed without killing its victim, it is usually remembered as a really pleasurable meeting with a stranger at night. Once bitten most mortals never forget this unholy pleasure gained through the vampires bite,
_____It is indeed true that vampires can't have children the usual and common way, but this doesn't mean vampires can't have romantic liaisons or even marry. There are special rituals, which grant vampires the ability to have half-mortal children, but usually these children become vampires in time, since eventually the vampire blood dominates over the mortal.
_____Vampires aren't only granted gifts, but also must endure trials. One of their best-known weaknesses is the susceptibility to sunlight, but there are certain bloodlines that resist this weakness. A powerful vampire, who possesses the ability of walking in the Sun like a mortal, is known as a day walker. Day walkers are renowned hunters and guardians of their own race. Many Vampires are also known for their abundant magical abilities and dark powers contained within their blood.
_____The famous Nosferatue, ugly creatures, more monster like than human or animal in appearance, are known for their absolute brutality. Nosferatue are the classic vampires of horror legends, monstrous and blood thirsty, for this is the nature they are born with. Another kind of monster like vampires are those with wings and tails, thought to be the fanciful creation of the vampiric gods. They are vampires with wings or the look of wolves, fantastic hunters, but few and far between in the vampire world and rarely mentioned in all the vampire chronicles.
_____The most numerous type of vampire is the standard common vampire everyone has met in his or her life or unlife. These vampires look like an ordinary mortal, they didn't change much during their transformation. In fact, no apparent physical changes took place within these beings, but for a tendency toward pallor, they look like any other human. While the other kinds of vampires tend to be few and hard to find, the common vampire dominates the species of vampires.

  Name: Orpheus
Age: Teenager
Birthday: August 17
Race: Vampire
Status: Son of a Lord
Occupation: Monster Hunter Trainee
Body: Build like any general teen, Orpheus has little in terms of muscle but he's far from scrawny. His clothes hide a deceptively toned body though, more like a runner than a football player.
Weight: A little on the lighter side. Could do with putting on some weight but has few means available to him to fix it.
Hair: Similar to Qadir's, silky and wind tossed but not quite as long and with less ruffle. Red stains the area around his bangs.
Eyes: Black pits that hold little emotion. Red rimmed along the bottom as if blood had pooled and dried there.
Skin: Far more pale than Qadir but not so deathly one would worry for his pallor.
Personality: Spoiled, vain, know-it-all syndrome. Orpheus is not someone who makes fast friends and he's not someone who cares. Though he has been known to enjoy the company of others, it's mainly to get an ego boost from time to time. For the small vampire, the end always justifies the means when it comes to what he wants and how he gets it. Especially as a child he had trouble bonding with people who were unable to see past his chilly demeanor. Despite all these traits, the boy really has a heart deep down but a great deal of trouble expressing it. When he is scared or upset he often lashes out in other ways, and his idea of heroism often ruffles feathers more than soothing them. All in all though, one could probably count on Orpheus to help as long as there was something in it for him.
Likes: Orpheus' favorite past-time is thinking about Orpheus. He is, after all, his favorite person. Outside of himself, he enjoys eating spicy foods to remind himself of taste, strolling in the moonlight, spending time with Kaoru, and going on monster hunts with his father. Very rarely do the "little" things interest him and so his list of activities tends to be very narrow. Unlike Qadir he neither likes or dislikes the sun; he greatly prefers the night time to the daylight, but his tolerance is much higher due to not being entirely vampire.
Dislikes: Orpheus dislikes a great deal more than he likes, for he is a petulant boy who rarely finds things to his liking. It is far easier to say that he simply dislikes everything until it proves itself worthy of his attention. He is most passionate against happy-go-luckies, people who mock or belittle him, and most usually: nicknames of any sort.

  Name: Qadir Xi
Age: Forever 31
Birthday: August 12
Race: Vampire
Status: Lord
Occupation: Monster Hunter
Body: Because of his vampiric background, Qadir excels at anything physical, though he never works out because it's just plain boring. He's muscular, but not overly so and it doesn't show through his clothes at all; he is also fairly lean and flexible.
Height: Whether it's because Qadir enjoys his dairy and veggies or just because his father was tall, his height reaches over 6' tall, close to 6'4" likely.
Weight: Who the hell knows. Qadir has never kept a scale in an home he's ever owned. He's healthy, he's toned, he looks fed but not stuffed basically.
Hair: Qadir's hair is just as dark as kohl and as touchable as black silk. The main reason for his dark hair is because of his middle-eastern decent, though accentuating these locks are bits of what look like golden thread. The style of his hair is something akin to 'disarray'' - full bodied and wavy, it's something any woman would envy endlessly.
Eyes: Like drops of amber drenched in liquid gold, Qadir's eyes are vibrant and watchful, almost hawklike in how observant they are.
Skin: Despite his intolerance for sunlight, Qadir's skin is a dark and hearty copper brown akin to what one might find when traveling in the middle-east.
Biography: It has been many, many years since Qadir has thought about his past, for his past has stretched for more years than any human's could hope to stretch. Qadir never thought that he'd end up like he is now, though he coudln't honestly tell you he's unhappy with his life at the moment. Far back he'd been married and had a child of his own, but then he'd met someone, someone he'd managed to block completely from his mind. He wouldn't even be able to tell you if it was a he or a she, a child or an adult. This person of course is the reason for the sharp white fangs seen when he smiles. Qadir's been known to do just about everything over the years. He's moved around a lot, he's played the bad guy, he's played the good guy, but after the death of the woman he loved as a mortal something was lost with him and he no longer gets attached to people despite how close they may appear.
Personality: Qadir is the friendliest gentleman one might ever hope to meet; at least that's what he's been told. A smile is almost always seen to be brightening up his face and adding a twinkle to his eye. Open and friendly to just about anyone he meets, it's no surprise that the man seems to have quite a way with women. Not that he's intentionally trying to catch any of them of course, but there's little he can do to stop their day dreaming when he himself quite enjoys the attention. When dealing with Orpheus, Qadir isn't too sure how to act. Orpheus mostly takes care of himself to Qadir's relief. A mature boy and almost smarter than Qadir himself, Orpheus is never in need of advice, never needing punishment and never needing affection. Because of Orpheus' ability to act like an adult while a child, Qadir is able to allow the boy to act however he'd like. This isn't to say that if Orpheus does anything wrong he wont hear anything from his guardian, but what could the perfect little boy ever do wrong?
Likes: Qadir enjoys trying on new outfits a lot, though he's been known to get teased over it and when that happens he has a tendency to stop for extended periods of time. As a vampire, Qadir is in love with the moon and the dark of night, as well as the common bat. Unfortunately for Qadir, Orpheus can't stand bats and so Qadir has recently been forced to refuse his beloved pets free flight in his home.
Dislikes: Qadir's distaste for the sun is prominent and the rare times he does venture out into the daytime hours he is usually reserved and quiet, always with his little black umbrella and bundled against the painful rays. Orpheus finds this strange considering Qadir's history, but he's never been willing to ask about it. Red is actually a colour that this vampire cannot stand and the sight of blood makes him feel rather sick. No one ever called him the poster-boy for vampires though.

 The scent of black lily, but why is there blood? Why does a black gel smoke red? Oh my. Someone certainly brings new meaning to calm and collected. Ready to take the world by force if needed.

>> Unlit Scent
The first and second stages are the shortest. This is the unlit burner, where the incense stands alone, unlit and basically just smelling good. >> Lit Scent
At this stage the candle is introduced, which evaporates the oil and lets it dispurse through wherever you put the burner in the first place. >> Child Scent
The most impressionable stage. The child will already have a few character traits to it from it's original scent, but this is where you are able to mold them into what you want them to be. The clothes will be very simple, nothing too complex, and the child will always be in some sort of sitting stance. And anyone around them will smell their faint scent. >> Adolescent Scent
The stage we all hate. They're teenagers, they're rambunctious, they want to drive you absolutely nuts. Teen Scents have the strongest scent in the stages, they're at the peek of their youth and they like to express it. Their clothes are more outrageous and complex during this stage. >> Adult Scent
Finally, maturity. During this stage the Scent's scent dies down a little, not being as strong as it once was. Their clothes are more sophisticated or elegant and express what we may consider maturity to be. At this stage they are also able to reproduce, having one or two children in their lifetime. Twins are very rare, but not impossible. >> Elder Scent
Their scent is almost faded, but their beauty is still there. Elder scents are the last stage of a Scents life, the beauty of maturity, they give off that 'all knowing' look that all the younger Scents can't stand. Their clothes will indicate their wisdom and the beauty that follows it. >> Scent Maker

Regardless of his precautions however, Qadir found that he'd left his home still too early and the heat of the sun was beginning to wear him out. Taking a quick survey about the area he'd wandered into, the man finally decided to take a sharp right into a scent shop, not bothering to read any of the signs or take any other notes of what was around him. With a smile he folded up his umbrella and clipped his sunglasses to the front of his dark shirt. At the greeting from the woman behind the counter he returned the pleasantries and offered her a friendly wave.
Qadir took a survey around the shop quickly and wrinkled his nose at the lack of, well, anything besides scents. It smelled so wonderful in the shop he truly wished he could rent out a chair and a book to read off in one of the corners and enjoy himself. Alas, this didn't seem to be the case, so he assumed it was a 'get in, get out' type of shop and he went to work on the 'get out' part. Following his nose, Qadir made his way through the fruity scents with a funny look upon his face that ended up remaining when he made his way into the section that gave off the scent of a million kitchens.
Since neither of those sections really fit Qadir's taste, he made his way to the flower selection, his smile returning to normal and those pearly fangs of his reflecting in the glass of the cups. Much better. One could never go wrong with the scent of a rose, or the scent of baby's breath, but none of them really hit it off with the man. Finally he passed by a pitcher of dark black gel that smelled faintly, not overpowering like many of the scents were. In fact, if he hadn't stuck his nose right up next to it he might not have even noticed it was a scent. The smell was pleasant though, and the colour acceptable.
With that, Qadir picked up the cup and carried it to the counter to pay, thanking the woman several times before leaving the store with his purchase and accessories. Thankfully, by the time he left the store the sun had set enough to not bother his skin or amber eyes and so he let the umbrella dangle from his arm and the glasses upon his shirt. Now that he had something new to play with, Qadir didn't think there was much point to staying out. Clubbing while holding a bag full of 'Black Lily' gel wasn't exactly a pleasant prospect.
Once he returned home, Qadir set up the little cup and burner in the middle of his dinner table; perhaps it would bring him just a bit of comfort in the large, lonely house. With a lopsided grin, Qadir reached out a finger and poked at the gel in the cup, only to recieve quite a shock when he pulled his finger back out. With a wide-eyed, shocked expression, Qadir looked at the blood red gel that dripped from his finger, falling onto the side of the cup and dripping down the holder from the movement of Qadir's finger.
The man quickly moved to the sink and washed his hands of, scrubbing them twice to make sure the sight of blood upon his hands would disappear. Good gods did Qadir dislike blood, and the sight of such a bloody colour coming from the pitch black was quite a shock. None the less, Qadir decided to leave the cup alone for the night and retired to his study to read for a while. He'd light the bloody (pun intended ;D) thing later.
