Meet my fourth and final character (for now), Julian Hayes!
Quick Facts:
Julian was born into a poor family and always dreamed of more for himself. When he met and fell in love with a woman he believed to be a wealthy noble, he thought he finally had his ticket to bigger and better things. As it turned out, she was a vampire who bit and turned him.
But life as a vampire was actually better for Julian. He traveled with his sire for years before they grew tired of each other. They parted ways less than amicably, and Julian set out to find his own corner of the world to conquer.
He eventually wound up in Roseport, where he joined the local vampire clan and schemed his way into becoming its leader.
After 50 years of leading the clan, Julian is growing restless again. He wants more power and authority, and he isnât afraid to play dirty to get it.
The VIGILANTE threat gave him an excuse to ask that all Roseport Clan members cut ties with the slayers and for him to close ranks. Heâs doing his best to convince his members that the time has come for vampires to throw out the treaty and live the way they want to.
In protest of the slayers treating supernaturals harshly after VIGILANTE revealed itself, Julian opened the nightclub Delirium as a place where his vampires can have snack and let loose as an alternative to the Euphoria Lounge.
Julian doesnât really âloveâ his fellow clan members. He loves the power they give him, and heâll protect and shelter them for that reason alone. He does do a lot for them and is almost always willing to help when they come to him. Itâs important to him that he keeps their respect.
Heâs great at networking, and heâs very charming. In fact, heâs rather charming unless you cross him. Then, all bets are off. He can go from smiling and laughing to ripping out throats in .2 seconds under the wrong circumstances.
He suffers from some jealousy issues. He always wants what others have - whether itâs influence, money, or the attention of other people.
Julian is the type of lover who showers his current woman with gifts and affection. Sometimes his relationships last a few decades, sometimes they last a few days. He has no real preference when it comes to sleeping around or getting serious. It all depends on the woman and what he wants at that moment.
Secretly, he has an addiction to shapeshifter & siren blood.
He lives in the Industrial District at the Roseport Clan headquarters in a spacious suite at the top of the remodeled warehouse.
Connection Ideas:
Click here to see the connections Julian has so far. I have a few starting point ideas below, but these are not by any means the only plots Iâm open to or want. Never be afraid to reach out to me for plots! Even if an idea doesnât work right off the bat, Iâm always happy to brainstorm something that will.
Slayers: Julian is encouraging everyone he knows to turn against those that enforce the treaty. Heâs not above playing dirty to get what he wants, and he sees the slayers as nothing more than an obstacle in his way to more power.
Other Covens/Clans/Packs: Julian puts his own interests (and therefore the interests of his clan) first. Iâd love a few allies and maybe a few enemies from the other groups in the city. Heâs more than willing to team up with other supernaturals to get what he wants.
New Vampires: Iâd love to have Julian mentor someone! He might not be the best moral role-model, but he definitely can show newer vampires how to control their bloodlust and adjust to night living.
