Nicodème Chevalier Shirtless

Name: Currently going by Nicodème Chevalier.

In Game Name: Chivalier

House: Chevalier de Venois line patriarch.

Age: 800+ but appears to be around late 20s to late 30s.

Race: Vampire(with wolf like qualities and wolf like predatory drive.)

Spirit guide/Animal guide/guardian spirit: A ghostly griffin was said to have been seen by his Grand father and has been a family legend. The griffins likeness adorns his family crest and coat of arms.

Alignment: Tends to fluctuate due to moral conflict with vampirism.

Build: Average, not muscular, but is pleasing to look at.

Height: Around 5'11''

Weight: Between 170-180Lbs.

Hair: Dark thick blond with slight curl.

Eyes: Blue, but change to yellow when hungry or excited if he is not keeping control on the change. Eyes will also change to a crimson glow when in blood-lust or under extreme emotions such as when enraged. Vision is basically like a normal human when in lighted areas, but he can focus his sight to see distance like a hawk. When in dark or absence of any light he sees in infrared. When eyes change usually fangs also descend.

Clothing: Casual clothing, Silk or cotton shirt, Slack or dress pants sometimes jeans once in awhile. black dress shoes or boots. Clothing tends to be dark shades of colors. Wears turtle necks and heavy trench coat for winter to blend in.

Personality:
Has a moody, broody sometimes arrogant and rarely authoritative temperament, though many times he seems to have a childish friendly nature. His sense of humor can be morbid and finds things to be funny...usually at others expense...Is vain, just not obvious about it, maybe... Also is a bad procrastinator and tends to keep to himself. Overly moralistic.

Like wolves, he can communicate through growls and body language without verbal speech, though he also hisses. When angry or hungry his speech will sometimes become an inhuman deep growl. Growling can have a different meaning to him than it does to wolves, so he tends to ignore a wolfs' growls. He likes the companionship of his own kind and enjoys a hunt with others or alone to reveal in his predatory nature like a wolf does as well, just not to hunt humans.

He likes to help others and will go out of his way to do it, sometimes putting himself in danger. Being very temperamental and aggressive due to his conflicting nature, he often will leave someone alone that's hurt if they push him away and refuse to allow him to help them and finds it is not worth the head ache it causes since he will not force a person to except help against their will.

A violating act toward a child (and sometimes a female if he can tell they are not into that sort of thing) often gets a violent reaction from him as he loathes seeing harm to a child.

History:
Born a noble of a French/Flemish family in Flanders as the only surviving son after his elder brothers became ill and died as children from an unknown sickness, leaving him the heir apparent. He lived with his parents, sisters and a few cousins whom his parents took in after their own had died. At a young age he was taken in under a lord for knight training after his fathers death in battle, which he became devoted to the lord who was training him, looking up to the man as a father and friend not knowing the man was power hungry and had a son who would kill to get what he desired. One day he found out how much a friend the lord was when the lords' son committed murder. The son also had been trained as a knight and had just returned from a battle, blamed him, saying he did the murder. The lord wanting to protect his son as well as his position took the opportunity to ensure the blame was on him. Given a choice death, imprisonment or going off to war; which was a death sentence in itself, but he had a chance of survival in battle than at a trial that would most likely be unfair, he chose to go off to fight.

He was sent to fight in Egypt during the 5th crusade under the French flag as punishment, something he despised. After learning of his fathers death in battle he had come to hate war and resented the fact that he had to fight in one that he did not believe in and because of something he didn't do. His time in battle lasted for a few years until they where force to retreat back and then ambushed, leaving him badly wounded, captured and thrown into prison along with others to die. While imprisoned he had to endure being beaten and fed tainted food while waiting for ransom as he became ill from the wound he received to his left side from a scimitar that managed to get past the chain mail armor he wore. Eventually through negotiations a ransom was met and they where set free to return home. After haven watched the acts of his comrades and then the mistreatment while imprisoned, he became bitter and withdrawn so that when offered immortality and power by a stranger while getting drunk in a tavern and still ill from his wound, he excepted.

After excepting the strangers offer he awakes to the world anew and dependent on his sire to teach him to survive as a fledgling. For a time he stays with his sire, learning to use his new fledgling abilities and enjoyed killing, sometimes hunting with his sire or a mate. As the centuries pass he becomes tired of hunting and killing even old morals resurfacing so decides to go away on his own to leave his sire, whom was like a father to him. Annoyed by his leaving his sire fights with him over it, but both of them are stubborn and bad tempered so they give up on changing each others mind and settle for ignoring one another.

During his many travels he herd tales of other creatures, but only met other types of vampire and a were wolf once. As for the more outlandish tales, he passed them off as just overactive human imagination. Then one night he was walking along a deserted road hoping to find a town before sun rise forced him to bury himself beneath the dirt, something he did not like the thought of. As he walked he noticed the lights of a city and hurried toward it relieved to be able to find a nice bed instead of being stuck under the ground waiting for sun set. Entering the city he noticed that some of the houses seemed out of place for modern times, others just plain out of place at any time. stopping to read a plaque fixed to the gate entry to one large castle like house, he notices movement from the corner of his eye and turns wondering if he is hallucinating, thinking, did that tree just move?! Moments latter the tree uproots and walks a few blocks away to settle in a different spot. Hearing something from above he looks up to see something that looked to be a dragon flying. After finding a tavern, though not surprised there's a tavern after seeing a few strange creatures along the way, some of which he never even heard of before, he takes a room for the day. He no longer believes he can be surprised anymore after meeting so many different...Creatures

He has had mates and married in the past, but his first mate upon coming to the city is the only one he has been very relieved to have gotten rid of. Thankfully they had never bound. Many nights he ponders what he ever saw in her.
