Age: He appears to be about his early 20s but he's 1,046 years old
Gender: Male

Species: Vampire

Appearance: Below

Personality: Being so old, Dane has lost most of what makes people human. He feels like normal people, but he has gained the ability to ignore emotions if he doesn't need them. It's not that he doesn't have a heart. It's just that his compassion and ability to feel are so buried that it's been centuries since he's used them. This results in him being pretty moody. If he isn't calm and collected, he's one of two things: furious and looking for blood or seeking pleasure.

Biography: Born in 971, Dane is the bastard son of Erik the Red, a Norwegian explorer who ended up founding a settlement in Greenland...not that Dane cares. His most notable sibling is Leif Erikson, not that Dane cares about that either. Technically, none of his family (besides his mother) was aware of his existence until late in life, but Dane still resents them. So yeah, Dane is extremely old. He's seen a few things in his day. In fact, as far as he is currently aware, he is one of the oldest remaining vampires on the planet, but he doesn't really like to talk about it. In fact, most people in the vampire community believe him to be a myth.

Other: Despite the stigma around modern vampires, Dane does not sparkle or burn to death in the sun. It's more an annoyance that drains him of energy and leaves him weak. He is not allergic to garlic, but silver will burn him (somehow that became a werewolf myth, so few know of it). He does drink blood via retractable fangs. He's faster and stronger than any human (his strength and speed have improved with age). He's cool to the touch though not completely lifeless. Plus a few other things that he keeps to himself.
