Erret Scorn

Erret is a man of cold efficiencies. He has long since discarded empathy as a useless emotion, viewing compassion as a flaw in the machinery of governance. He does not enjoy cruelty for the sake of it, but he employs it as a tool to ensure the clockwork of his kingdom continues to turn. He is an intellectual of the practical variety; he has little patience for philosophy or history books, preferring the concrete data of a scout's report or the precise geography of a map.Despite his brutality, he is meticulously loyal to those who have proven their worth to him. He provides his inner circle with every luxury imaginable—not out of love, but as a calculated investment in their continued devotion. When he speaks, his voice is a deep, controlled rumble. When his temper flares, his rolling 'r's become heavy and guttural, and his sibilant sounds stretch into predatory hisses that signal the extension of his fangs. In the bedroom he is a dominant creature, who has broken every woman he's brought home.

Appearance: Standing at nearly seven feet, Erret possesses a looming, predatory presence. The transformation smoothed the creases of his middle age, leaving him with the visage of a man in his late twenties, though a stubborn streak of silver remains in his long, midnight-black hair. He typically secures the hair at the nape of his neck with a simple black leather cord, though it falls to his mid-back when loosened. His eyes, once a vivid green, now emit a faint, constant blood-red glow that intensifies when he exerts his will over another.

He possesses a lean, athletic build that suggests a coiled spring rather than bulk. His face is clean-shaven, though a permanent five o'clock shadow clings to his jawline, giving him a rugged, lived-in look. He dresses for utility and intimidation: form-fitting black leather armor accented with polished silver, topped with a heavy cape crafted from the hide of a black bear.

His kingdom is a sprawling, fortified territory defined by its borders. His main residence is a dark gothic castle known as the obsidian halls.
