Name- Schlitz Vampos
Age- 26
Date of Birth- 6 June
Homelands- The Austrian Alps
Race- Vampire
Class- Archer
Final- Vampiric Embrace
[Taking the vast majority of his energy, Schlitz draws his bow tightly. As the arrow stands unwaivering in the bow, he takes careful aim at his target's neck. Schlitz puts a great deal of his own energy into the arrow and bites it. Then, letting go, the arrow sails effortlessly into the victim's neck. The target is either incapacitated or "killed," allowing Schlitz to quickly feed. The bite of the arrow then turns the victim into a temporary vampire, and allows Schlitz to control him for a short period of time.]

{Weapon information}
(Blood Fiend)
The Blood Fiend is a silver longbow with a string of amazingly strong red silk. The bow has several red engravings on it which help Schlitz be more resistant to the sun. The legend of the bow from his hometown states that the bow was created for the Vampire King of the area long, long ago. The king, who was easily bored, found a new past-time-- human hunting. However, since the humans were only huntable during the day, there needed to be special runes placed upon the bow in order to protect the king from the sun. So, the king commissioned a vampire fletcher to make him such a bow, along with poison arrows which would kill on contact. The arrows were lost over time, but the bow remained, and eventually came into Schlitz's hands.
[The bow has a special enchantment which makes Schlitz more resistant to the sun, along with the string having an enchantment to make it unbreakable.]
{Armour Information}
(To Bleed or not to Bleed)
Schlitz's armor was created by a friend of his in his hometown. The armor is a one piece jumpsuit made of tight blood red leather. The gloves and boots are separate. The suit has a picture of a gold arrow stamped into it, pointing at Schlitz's heart, mocking all who would dare to try to kill him. Other than that, the suit itself is relatively unremarkable looking, aside from the color. The palms of the gloves and the bottoms of the boots are made from a special non-slip material indigenous to Schlitz's home area. This helps him grip his bow better, and be able to get on surfaces otherwise too slippery.

None at the moment.
{Physical Description}
Schlitz is rather tall (about 6' even) and lanky. He is rather thin but is still quite muscular for his size. He is pale, almost pure white, but not quite. His hair is jet black, and short. Most vampires have long hair, but being an archer, Schlitz cut his to assure it would not get in the way of his marksmanship. His hair is spiked backward, as if the wind blew it so hard it stuck in place. His eyes are a deep red, and rather thin. He often squints to get a better shot at his target. His nose is thin and long, but does not go out far from his face. His lips are thin, and generally pursed in disgust at something or another. His legs are quite long, allowing him to run faster, and his arms are muscular to allow the pulling of the bow. He moves gracefully, as if he floated above the ground.
{Background}
Schlitz grew up in a small vampire enclave in the Austrian Alps. A human village was nearby, allowing the small group of vampires to feed when ever they needed to. The human village never did anything to stop this because the elite vampire guard, the Bloodlust Guard, agreed to help defend the village if anything were to happen. All was well for years and years. Schlitz was born to a pure vampire and a turned, giving him some resistance to the sun. And then, when he was 20, Schlitz was given the calling every vampire man dreamed of.
He had been studying marksmanship since he was a little boy. He had gone out every night with his friend Kilros, hunting. As he grew older, he noticed his senses honing. He could see farther, hear more, smell more vividly. He began using these gifts to become a master archer of the village.
So, when he was 20, a letter arrived at Schlitz's house. It read:
Dear Schlitz Vampos,
We have been monitoring your progress as a master archer and are proud to inform you that you have been selected to lead the archery division of the Bloodlust Guard. Please report to the Archery range immediately with your response.
Sincerely,
Vincent Villareous, Captain of the Bloodlust Guard
The letter was stamped with the picture of a blood droplet. Schlitz sat down and considered. If he accepted, he would be stuck here forever. Although it was a prestigious position, the Guard was never used. He knew from experience all they did was sit in the barracks and get drunk. He made up his mind. He grabbed the letter with unyielding fire and walked quickly to the range.
"No," he said finally.
"Wha-What?" asked the Captain. "I'm sure you didn't just say no. No one ever refuses such an offer."
"Until now. Consider it refused." Schlitz walked back to his house and began packing his things. His parents were out on a feeding binge, so he didn't need to have an awkward discussion about why. He scribbled a note explaining he was leaving the enclave to explore the world, and learn more about archery, who he is, and what he can be. Without a second thought, he left the enclave, walking. He walked away that day, and never once looked back.
One day he came upon a building with a large gate, Upon the gate, the words "Twilight Moon Academy for the Gifted" were seen. "I'm gifted," he thought. He pushed open the gates and walked inside, ready to start a new life, and learn his true potential.
