The Vampire Failure | Harley Salvatore

<harley_salvatore> Full Name: Harley Salvatore. Species: Vampire. Age: 2513 (23 in human years).

Appearance: Harley's features are pretty vampirish, despite him trying to look as far from a vampire as possible. His skin is pale, paper-white. His hair is black; the back of his hair is slicked, but his bangs are pretty fluffy and often messy. His eyes are red, they shine in the dark. His pupils are white and slitted. Generally, his eye shape is roundish, which makes him look kinda innocent. His teeth are vampire-like, his canines are sharp. His nails are painted with a black nail polish. Harley is quite tall. He's about 6'7".

Attire: Harley doesn't like the Victorian fashion vampires usually wear. He often likes wearing comfortable clothing. Harley is a huge fan of a popular human artist, Sabrina Carpenter, so he cannot resist buying merch either. He likes lots of colorful bracelets.

Backstory: Growing up, Harley has never been liked by his family. In their eyes, Harley was a total joke of the vampire family. Harley doesn't like the sight of blood at all, and often results to avoiding it and replacing it with fake blood, or trying to eat healthy food, like vegetables or fruits. Harley doesn't like the vampire traditions, and often avoids them. And lastly... He absolutely hates socializing. These things about Harley, including the fact that Harley likes everything human-related despite his father banning him from interacting with that stuff... Made Harley pretty unlikable in his family.

Family Members:

• Vlad Salvatore: Harley's father. They don't have a very good relationship. Vlad cares for both of his children, even in their mother's absence, but Vlad is rather strict to Harley. Vlad thinks Harley is a mistake, and he regrets having him as a son. Harley himself feels quite neutral about it. It's just... Whatever. Not like Harley ever liked Vlad either. Vlad has white hair and black eyes. Harley takes more after his dead mother than his father. Which might be another reason why Vlad doesn't like Harley... He reminds him too much of Emira, Harley's mother.
• Gerald Salvatore: Gerald is Harley's big brother. Harley and Gerald have some sort of rivalry... Gerald isn't aware of it though. Truth be told, Gerald was always the more liked one in their family than Harley. Gerald was the more successful one. And Harley hated him for it. Gerald doesn't know that though. Matter of fact, Gerald adores Harley. Gerald has white hair and black eyes, just like his father.
• Ashley Salvatore: Ashley Salvatore is Gerald's wife. Ashley used to be a human, but got turned into a vampire because of the vampire tradition, and Gerald chose her for his wife. Ashley doesn't really mind Harley, and Harley doesn't mind her. But Ashley does find him kinda annoying.
