Alben

Edo the vampire: "Come, join the vampires, it is more fun than you will ever believe! you can kill people as much as you want, you can drink to your delight! You can become a master of the dead!"
Alben: "I used to be a master vampire, been there, done that, let me tell you, this is much more fun."

~Edo's last conversation~

Summary: Alben; former master vampire, he found a way out, if that's what you call it. He is now a professional vampire hunter. Semi-mortal, he trudges along the world carrying his belongings and with an utter hatred for the undead. Anything that isn't alive usually doesn't stand long when faced by Alben. Necromancers get past, but their creations are rarely seen again.
Description: Alben, a thin figure with pale skin, has hair down the half of his back. One quarter of it streaks gray. His eyes are a bright, icy blue, they almost glow in the dark. He wears a suit made of black, his feet sport army boots that remarkably fit with the suit. He carries a sword, and it looks lethal if used in the right way. [Used the wrong way, swords are lethal to whoever is swinging them, too :P - Alcar]
Something Shady About Past: Former master vampire, now a vampire hunter... think about it.
Personality: Alben has a distant personality, typically cold to most who don't know him, but for those who do, they just view him as humorless.. But Alben has a sense of humor, he gets it elsewhere, usually when cutting undead up, he views it as one would view a roller coaster ride.
Obsession: Killing undead, nothing is better, typically with a sword, perhaps a gun, maybe even just kicking the shit out of them.
Wound Points: 85 ( +20 vampiric death )

Fear: God
Rage: Undead/Unliving
Noble: His weapons are his only true allies. He does sometimes befriend other vampire hunters.

Alben's Story

Alben sat on his throne and looked around at his kingdom. Austin, Texas, nothing special, a big city for a big vampire. Some Hispanics had been entering his city lately, Alben was against illegal aliens, and most of the newcomers were just that. But what he hated more, was his job, master vampire overseeing a big city. He liked the fact that he could control other vampires with his words alone, but being a vampire was the greatest bore.
Alben sipped his drink and thought back to the days he was alive. He was a court jester, he loved his job, he would come out, dressed in white makeup, and make people laugh... But that wasn't the fun part... He would himself laugh at his own jokes and tricks, they always got him, even though they were his own, and he did them day after day, they were fun. But then the taker came... He snuck into Alben's tent and took him, that was 500 years ago, time sure does fly.
Alben had been one of the few vampires to make it past the time of immigrations, many died then, and after that, the witch trials, many vampires had been mistaken for witches and warlocks... Alben was a cautious person, he valued life, or at least, what he had left of a life, if you would call it that... boring, not even real, he didn't breath, he didn't bleed, he couldn't cry... couldn't even laugh..

"Your highness! We have a visitor, he says his name is Zorro, he says he's here to take back the Mexico land, shall we dispose of him?"
"No, let him through, I would like to see this man." Alben would chuckle to himself, had he found this funny, Zorro... but it wasn't, not to a vampire, to a vampire, it was boring.

A man with a quiet step walked into the room. He had a gun in his hand, and a man stood behind him, he reminded Alben vaguely of the stories of king author, this man was very old fashioned, more so than himself.
"Alben, Master Vampire of Austin, I have come to take back the land of the Mexicans, the independents of Spain!!"
"Hmm... yes yes... Shall we talk about this over some tea?" Alben sounded boring even to himself, he didn't even sound scared or humored. This was the last time he thought so.

Alben stared at the cloudy sky, the rain was coming down toward him, it looked vaguely like stars with the streetlights reflections. Zorro was more than a match for all of them... who was he? and furthermore... What was Alben now? He had been struck down from his city, he had somehow sacrificed his power, lost his thirst for blood, and lost his boring mind, he now found many things amusing, such as the destruction of undead, he hated them so, they made him boring, they made him disgusting, repulsive... They made him dead!
