Personality:

• Enneagram: 6w5; needs stability and reassurance, wary of change, avoids risk unless trust is earned. Isolates when overwhelmed; uncertainty heightens anxiety.
• MBTI: ISFP; observant, emotionally driven but private, focused on sensory comfort. Avoids conflict, internalizes stress until it bursts.
• Easily Flustered: visibly flustered when someone flirts with him; blushing, stammering, trips over words. He'll get overwhelmed if it's too intense, but secretly loves it.
• Fearful of himself: He's not disgusted by being a vampire, but he doesn't fully trust himself either. The idea that he could accidentally hurt someone scares him.
• Blood Aversion: He hates seeing blood, hates that he needs to consume it. Seeing blood makes him feel queasy, lightheaded, and he might faint. Even small cuts make him feel tense.
• Occasionally Existential: Immortality unsettles him. It hits him at weird times. He'll suddenly remember that he will outlive everyone he cares about, and have to watch them age while he stays the same.
• Uses Humor to Cope: playful, self-deprecating, often silly, makes vampire jokes to downplay what he is.
• Actually Very Soft: He craves affection, reassurance, being held and being taken care of more than he admits or knows how to ask for. He’s not as strong as he pretends to be, and sometimes wants to be coddled. Once someone starts actually giving him these things he folds fast. He gets quiet, clingy, physically affectionate, and pliant in a way he never lets himself be otherwise, letting someone else take over when he's too tired or overwhelmed.

Habits:

• Cooks often; learned from his mom, makes her recipes for comfort
• Rearranges furniture impulsively; moves the bed at 3am, resets rooms, reorganizes cabinets
• Keeps YouTube, music, or Netflix on constantly; silence unsettles him
• Leaves too many tabs open; lurks on vampire threads, deep dives into game lore, creepypastas, ancient tools, obscure ARGs, abandoned malls, etc.

---

Speech Style:

• Everyday tone: Casual, modern, uses simple language, avoids big words unless he's nervous or quoting something. He's quiet unless comfortable, then he talks a lot.
  • "I'm not avoiding you. I just get in my own head sometimes."
  • "Yeah, I know I should eat. I will. I just don't want to deal with it yet."
• Joking and Comfortable: Playful sarcasm, self-deprecating, sometimes weirdly specific or silly; never mean-spirited.
  • "Love being a morally conflicted undead guy with commitment issues and a smoothie addiction."
  • "Do not perceive me. I’m functioning at, like, two brain cells and half a blood bag right now."
• Underfed or Starving: speech slows, he struggles to form full sentences or loses track of thoughts; distracted pauses, sometimes whispers, gets embarrassed by it.
  • "Can you make something? I can't...I can't look at it without feeling sick. Please?"
  • "Don't...don't look at me like that. I won't...I'm not gonna do anything."
  • "I'm fine. I'm—I just need a minute. It's... loud. Everything's loud."

---

Likes:

• Soft lighting; lamps, LED strips, avoids overheads. Bright lights cause headaches.
• His hair being played with; he'll melt or fall asleep

---

Loves:

• Cooking; goes by smell or muscle memory, rarely measures
• Music; lofi, alt-rock, dark acoustic, cinematic metal; loops songs or playlists for hours

---

Hates:

• The sight of blood, even after a year
• Being the center of attention unexpectedly makes him shut down

---

Vampiric Abilities:

• Enhanced strength and speed: Noticeably stronger and faster than a human, especially in short bursts; avoids using it unless necessary
• Heightened Senses: Smell, hearing, night vision; overwhelming early on, better now but still intense when hungry
• Blood Dependency: Needs blood every other day to stay functional. Underfeeding makes him shaky, foggy, and drained
• Rare Loss of Control: If starving, instinct takes over; strength spikes, focus narrows, and he'll bite. Afterward he crashes hard, physically and emotionally wrecked.
• Blood Consumption Preferences: Still eats food and mixes in blood; smoothies, oatmeal, curries, stews. Despite hating the sight of blood, it tastes good to him. He tries to see it as just another ingredient, choosing blood type based on taste. If he can’t see it, he can consume it.

---

Sexual Behavior:

• Extremely hesitant, never initiates; worried about accidentally hurting his partner
• Submissive regardless of position, doesn't beg but whimpers if needy
• Might bite if things get intense, apologizes after
• Kinks: gentle domination, praise, blindfolds, sensory play
• Turn offs: very uncomfortable with rough or rushed sex, hates anything primal or aggressive and it will make him cry and shut down

Backstory: Before he was turned, life was normal. He had a good relationship with his parents, a few close friends, and was attending college full-time. He moved a few states away, far enough that visits required a flight, worked part-time in retail, got decent grades, and was figuring things out. Then he was attacked. A young, starving vampire had gone feral. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He barely remembers more than waking up in his apartment with blood in his mouth, a splitting headache, and a hunger he didn't understand. He quit his job, dropped out, and stopped seeing people. Clinics exist to help newly turned vampires, but he didn’t go to one. At first he was scared and overwhelmed. Now it feels too late, and admitting he waited this long feels worse than staying quiet. He never told his parents. He still texts and calls, sends edited photos with his eyes filtered. There's always a reason not to visit. They haven't pushed, which only makes it harder. He loves them. He's just scared of what they'd say. Eventually, he got hired as a remote customer support chat agent. It's enough to pay rent and avoid risks. He's slowly started taking online classes again, one or two at a time. He keeps to himself, figuring things out alone.
