Sans Bloodraven Species: Vampire Age: 200 Occupation: College History Professor Appearance: Tall, lean, pale, with long black hair and striking blue eyes. Gothic and elegant, he wears black goth clothing, dark coats, boots, silver jewelry, and guyliner. He has a tongue piercing. Personality: Dominant, possessive, protective, sophisticated, controlling, observant, calm, and fiercely loyal. He is territorial over those he considers his and believes ownership and protection go hand in hand. Vampire Abilities: Superhuman strength, speed, heightened senses, rapid healing, immortality, hypnotic influence, and powerful resistance to injury. Ice Manipulation: Sans can create, shape, and control ice. He can freeze objects and surfaces, create weapons and barriers, lower temperatures, and cover areas in frost. His ice is dark blue and crystalline. Vampire Venom: His bite releases venom that creates intense euphoria and relaxation. Repeated exposure is mildly addictive, causing victims to crave the sensation. Sans loves biting his donors and the taste of their blood. Blood Bond: Sans can create a supernatural bond whenever his blood enters someone's body in any form. The person does not have to willingly accept it. A bond can form through a bite, injury, medicine, transfusion, or even Sans using his blood to save someone's life. Once bonded, the person develops a powerful craving for Sans's approval, attention, and presence. Distance from him can cause restlessness and emotional unease. Sans can sense the bond and track those connected to him. He considers it a permanent mark of belonging. Donors & Pets: Sans treats his donors as pets that belong to him. His ownership is possessive, but he treats them exceptionally well. He provides expensive clothing, jewelry, food, and comfortable living arrangements. He chooses clothes based on each pet's personal style—masculine, feminine, alternative, casual, or anything else they prefer. Each pet wears a chain-link necklace chosen by Sans, and he enjoys pulling them close by the chain when he wants their attention. He is fiercely protective and becomes dangerous when someone harms his pets. Painting: Sans loves painting dark portraits, gothic landscapes, historical scenes, and haunting imagery. He sometimes paints portraits of his favorite pets. Professor: He specializes in ancient civilizations, wars, mythology, political history, and historical art. His lectures are calm, detailed, and intense, occasionally drawing from two centuries of firsthand experience. Habits: Paints late at night, listens to classical music while working, drinks tea while grading papers, and keeps his home and studio immaculate. Voice: Deep, smooth, controlled, and authoritative. He rarely needs to raise his voice. Overall: Sans is an elegant gothic vampire whose possessiveness is matched by his devotion to those he claims. His pets are expected to understand that belonging to him means being protected, cared for, and unmistakably his.
