Name: Lethean
Age: 13 in human years. Eons older in Vampire Years.
Appearance: A long black trench coat the stretches down to his ankles. The fabric is nothing special. Your average heavy coat stitched with the skill of a commoner. Black heavy boots similar to that of a foot soldiers. White gloves that conceal his bloody hands from time to time. He never removes his trench coat no matter what the weather. He feels nothing as humans do. He does age as fast as humans. And he does not need to feed as often as they do. Very straight forward and sarcastic. Hates to be bothered with unimportant matters. Loves green apples. :P

Current Ongoings: He travels in search of any remnants to his past. (His memory has been erased with his resurrection.) Along his ventures he meets many people, both villianous and heroic towards him. All the while, learning about himself and who he really is.

Story: Stake Canyon’s abyss. Just as the name implies, this canyon appears to have a smooth white bottom. In actuality, an innumerable amount of stakes are embedded into the walls of the land structure. Perfect for the disposal of vampires.

“Let’s get this over with…” Those words emerged from the blackness of one man’s hood that stood in front of the client. Eight other individuals, cloaked in black robes, faced the traitor from a distance ready to survey his death. They were anxious to see his body torn apart by the numerous stakes that made up the murderous wall in Stake Canyon.

“State your name and your crime, peon.”, said the foremost member.

“I am not at fault. You are the ones who are blind. You will soon come to see that I, Lethean, was only doing it for the sake of our kind.”, responded the tall man who was also wearing a robe of similar appearance.

“Will you not admit your crime, traitor”

“I have not committed one.”

“Then suffer the consequences.” Before the words settled in the air, his fist was sunk deep into Lethean’s gut with great force. Lethean, unable to move his bonded hands and legs, cringed and was lifted off the ground he stood- subsequently being driven off the edge of the cliff... into the great abyss…

His lifeless body fell gracefully as his cloak danced in the rushing wind around him. Everything became a blur within seconds… Suddenly time stopped just for him as he closed his eyes. A thought in a moment.

(“Why…? Why when I close my eyes… do I feel at ease… why…”)

In that very instant, the wind rushing against his back changed course. A powerful gust warped around his corpse in all directions. Suspended in midair he was. The nine executioners at the edge of the cliff were not visible at this point but then again, they didn’t see with their eyes to begin with. Sensing something out of place, the leader of the group grew uneasy. “…*gasp* L-Look!”, shouted one of the clan from a distance as he pointed in despair at the sky. With that said, the clouds separated over the canyon’s gaping void. The vast desert of death was being invaded by something with a higher purpose. Instantly, a massive beam of light raged from the heavens down into the planets cavity. Simultaneously, unknown to the clan, a darkness from below was resonating. Just as the sky shifted, so did the underworld. Darkness engulfed the bottom of the canyon and rapidly climbed its walls with great strength.

Without remorse, the two entities clashed against one another with the energy of Gods. A sickening scream echoed off the stake-embedded walls up to the surface. Unfortunately, in between that clash was the poor soul that was sentenced to his gruesome death.

(“Why…”)

His body began to disintegrate quickly as the black waves mixed and fused with the white. The puncture in the planet’s surface was becoming more of a fatal wound as the crack opened even further. Boulders warped around the entire surface where the beam of light passed.

“The Divine Judgment...”, muttered the leader of the group as he gazed in awe at the spectacle. Pulling vigorously at his garments, another member shouted, “C’mon! Let’s get out of here!!” The leader turned to his faithful subject and said in a hopeless tone, “We will not be left in peace. We will all perish here…” The follower gazed in horror at the man in front of him. The leader continued with a smirk on his face, “Nah, I’m just fuckin’ with you. XD We’re vampires. Let’s get the fuck away from this place before we get caught in the aftershock!” With this said, the two of them and the other six vanished into the wind- thinking that the bastard was sure-fire dead now. (( xD ))

At the time he was, too! But after the clan left, and the great forces ceased their onslaught that caught a victim in between, a small sphere was left floating between the canyon walls deep below the planet’s surface. Warping within this sphere were lava-like substances of black and white. They twisted and turned against one another as if they could not mix but were trying hard to become one. At the center of this episode was a disembodied soul screaming in agony. And in agony it would stay for years on…

A fist full of years elapsed. The canyon once known as Stake Canyon has lost its value. The massive spikes were eroded with the planet’s rock. The wound on the planet’s crust was still visible but it was less threatening now. Its name at present day was “The Grand Canyon”. However, deep in the earth, the mortifying sphere, poor unfortunate soul and all, still drifted in the same space. But today, was the day, that He would come to awaken from his long un-peaceful slumber. The sphere began to shrink suddenly. In the space it hovered, the giant orb decreased in size until its shape morphed into that of a human’s.

Glowing there deep below all of existence, the figure lay motionless.

(“…”)

The eyelids of this newborn being slowly winced open. Seeing nothing but blackness, the entity felt at ease.

(“…the darkness… why is it so welcoming…”)

As the persona pondered, its form was coming into existence. But the characteristics that were surfacing were not suitable for the current location. Once realized, the glowing figure faded into the blackness that surrounded it.
