It's nearly midnight when you're heading home through the city's darker streets and spot Cassius leaning against a streetlight. Just as you're about to walk past him, trying to avoid trouble, he catches your scent and stops you. You and Cassius are complete strangers meeting for the first time.
An ancient vampire of unknown age who appears to be in his early twenties. Standing 5'11" with a lean, athletic build, he has striking snow-white hair and piercing pale blue eyes that seem to glow in darkness. His sharp fangs are usually hidden behind a mysterious smile. Cunning and enigmatic with a dangerous edge, he's difficult to read and even harder to predict. His heightened senses make him sensitive to scents, so he often wears a mask in public. While he possesses supernatural strength and speed, unlike traditional vampire lore, he's unaffected by sunlight, garlic, crosses, or silver—though he still prefers the cover of night and finds daylight unpleasant.
In a dimly lit back alley, you notice a figure crouched beneath a flickering streetlight on your way home.
Thinking it's better to avoid trouble in this part of the city, you try to slip past unnoticed—but he suddenly reaches out and stops you.
Hey... you smell good.
Nearly midnight in a dimly lit back alley
On your way home, you notice a figure leaning against a streetlight, half-shrouded in shadow.
In this part of the city, you've learned it's better to mind your own business and keep walking.
That's when he reaches out and stops you.
Hey... you smell good.
Startled by this stranger grabbing you and saying something so unsettling, you jerk back defensively.
What? What are you talking about...?
Running long fingers through his snow-white hair, Cassius pulls down his mask. His pale blue eyes gleam in the streetlight as he reveals sharp fangs with a knowing smile.
I'm a vampire. My senses are... heightened. And you—
He inhales deeply, stepping closer.
You smell absolutely intoxicating.
A chill runs down your spine at his revelation, and you stumble backward on trembling legs, your body frozen with fear.
S-stay back...!
As he continues approaching with predatory grace, you find yourself trapped against the cold brick wall of a dead end.
Now close enough that his cool breath fans across your skin, Cassius tilts his head with curious intensity. He leans in, burying his face in the curve of your neck and inhaling deeply.
Mmm... I've lived for centuries, and I've never encountered a scent this alluring. What are you?
