Name: Henry Sturges
Canon: Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter / The Last American Vampire
Age: 460 (appears 26)
Appearance:
Canon Point: 2015 Alexi Romanov leaving his house, going back out into the world.
Background:
Henry was born on March 2, 1563, in England to a Ferrymen; he grew up in poverty; his father wanted Henry to follow in his footsteps and become a ferryman. However, Henry had other ideas and found himself an apprenticeship with the blacksmith, which would slightly raise his class, but not by much. Around the age of 24, he fell deeply in Love with Edvia, a much higher class girl than he was, and she loved him deeply in return. Her parents deeply disapproved of the match. They married anyway and left on the ship bound for the Roanoke Colony
On the voyage to the colony, Henry notices the ship is oddly devoid of rats; then, people start to die of a mysterious illness. This raises a minor curiosity in Henry, as the ship's doctor couldn't identify the condition.
See link for Roanoke Colony; as they wait for the return of the supply ship, months turn into years; there are rough patches, but after a horrid year, things seem to start to settle. Things begin to sour when it appears a native kills one of the settlers; this is, however, later found out by Henry not to be the case. The sickness starts to take people again; this causes great concern for Henry as Edeva is now eight months pregnant with what would be their first child.
As the sickness gets worse, one night, Henry hears a commotion in the village. He opens the door and see's Crowly in his true vampiric form, killing the whole colony, soaked in the blood of Henry's and Edeva's friends. Henry grabs a small number of supplies and runs with Edeva into the woods, thinking if they could make it to the water, they could make it to safety; this was not the case. Crowly catches them quickly, slamming Edeva into a tree and attacking Henry, deciding to turn him so he won't be the only Englishmen in the new world. The first sounds Henry hears as he is turning are the sound of Crowly killing Edeva and the heartbeats of her and their unborn child stopping. He holds her hand as she dies, and he slips into the darkness of his new life. Henry had attempted to carve Crowly's name into a tree before passing out; Crowly was able to stop him and change it to Croatoan, forever wrapping the event in mystery.
To keep Henry with him, he tells Henry he has much to learn from him, but the true factor in keeping Henry around is Crowly having kept the baby Virginia Dare alive.
However, it's not long before Henry escapes with Virginia and takes shelter with one of the tribes, fighting for them, protecting and caring for Virginia he has taken in as his adopted daughter. As the years move on and Virginia comes of age, the relationship changes and shifts into something inappropriate a few years after her first period. He ends up losing control and turning her; the change in the relationship and turning her become Henry's greatest shame and guilt. She doesn't handle the change and sinks into the madness that can befall young vampires in the first year or two of their new life.
This even changes Henry, putting him on a path to use his curse to help humans, to help the world for the better. He leaves the tribes and starts to travel, looking for new settlements learning self-control, and looking for others like him, both in vampirism and mindset.
Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter
Last American Vampire
CRAU: n/a
Personality: An easy-going, adventurous, romantic, the kind of man who would rip the spine out of someone while they were still alive if they hurt someone they love or an innocent. Also, the kind of person who would let Nikola Tesla test x-rays on him. He loves and cares deeply and can at times fall into 'what could have been' thinking. He can also be a sarcastic wise-ass sometimes. He is also a great lover of books and education.
Weaknesses/Temptations: Sex and lust, people needing help/saving, seeking vengeance for those innocents who have been wronged and can't seek or are too weak to get it for themselves.
Sins: Give us a list of sins your character will be entering the game with. There is a minimum of three. Sleeping with Virginia when she was 17, losing control and turning Virginia, Not saving Edeva and his unborn child, not stopping John Wilks Booth before he shot Abe. Not being able to stop Crowly from blaming the Croatoan.
Powers/Abilities: Henry is a vampire, speed, strength, agility, proficient with firearms and bladed weapons. Henry has some precog abilities, but the precognition doesn't show a clear picture of what will happen, just vague clues and feelings about people. Like how he knew Abe had a great purpose but couldn't clearly see what that purpose was. He can also read people really well, but that's nothing spooky. Vampires from his book series are day walkers; their eyes never adjust to sunlight, so they must wear sunglasses; without some sunscreen, they can get ill in the sunlight, or it will slowly weaken them if they aren't well fed. During the night, however, due to his age, Henry would be reasonably powerful. The ways to kill a vampire are beheading or burning alive; depending on the age, it could take both.
Items: Sunglasses, journal w/ pen, book of Shakespear sonnets, sunscreen, a flask of blood, small silver cross around his neck.
