  What advice would they give to their younger self?: Never let your guard down.

  Father: Abraham Senera

  Relationship with your character: Abraham was a good if uninspired King, but one enlightened thing he did was criminalize the murder of humans. One drank for life, but did not abuse or harm them.

He was never cruel, but they were never close.

  Mother: Maliana

  Name: Rune

  Age: 39

  Place of birth: Celestine City

  Current location: Mobile, but his home is in Comity

  Nationality: Ellowyn

  Education: Private tutors

  Occupation: Prince

  Income: He is living as he can right now, but he was a cartographer by trade and entitled to tithes from the other vampires in his district

  Eye color: Brown

  Hair style: Long, often worn in braids or
a bun

  Build: Muscular but not overly so. Graceful and slow moving like a cat. He gives off the impression of power being held back

  Any distinguishing features: Yes. He has the Letters of the Revelatory tattooed on his back.

  Preferred outfit: Jeans and T-shirt. Or leather and a loose shirt for special occasions. Barefoot, but he often wears boots for his job

  Level of grooming: It depends. On official occasions, he’s very put together, but otherwise he’s more comfortable in jeans, no shoes, no shirt if it’s warm, and his hair loose. He might look a little disheveled, but he’s clean. In certain environments when he’s working, he’ll be dusty and sweaty and wear his hair in a single braid down his back.

  Any distinguishing “tics” and mannerisms: He often wears a very small smile, kind of ironic and amused, and often rubs the corner of his mouth with a fingertip.

  Handwriting: Loose and elegant with flourishes but always legible.

  Walk: Slow, measured, as though he’s conscious of every step, but easy and graceful at the same time.

  Talk: Quietly with amusement in his tone usually, but capable of a low menacing tone and sometimes a loud terrifying yell.

  Preferred curse word: Doesn’t often curse, but probably fuck.

  Catchphrase: Things that happen simultaneously are not coincidences.

  Laugh: Low, husky, sometimes deep, genuine. What do they tend to find funny? People. Human nature. Vampire nature. Rune likes people but doesn’t particularly trust them and finds they’re most often the cause of their own problems.

  Smile: Small, amused.

  How emotive are they?: Tends to show only amusement, interest, or anger, but he’s slow to anger and will hide it for as long as he can.

  How easily can others to read them?: As easily as he wants them to.

  They have a resting neutral face.

  Hometown: Celestine City

  Childhood: Demanding. He is a prince who was destined to take over the throne. He had private tutors and was taught how to fight, but it was also a restrictive childhood because his options were limited to what was appropriate for his station. Also he lived with constant intrigue and never knew where danger would come from next, so he grew up very alert and slow to trust.
