appearance ;
being a businessman and a connoisseur of the finer things in life, lucien can almost always be found a nice ensemble. his wardrobe consists mostly of blazers, plain gray t-shirts and a nice pair of dress pants. of course, for the more important occasions, he dons a very striking suit that has been custom tailored to his liking. on the rare occasion he decides to dress down, a simple v-neck, clean pair of jeans, and good old sneakers will do just fine. as far as he's concerned, its considered poor taste to be seen in anything less than perfect. his look is always as crisp as his mind. he's seen countless decades and trends and always managed to fit into the 'well dressed' category.
lucien is about as proportionally handsome as any human, monster, or creature could ever be. he's got the looks to kill, or at least lure in his next kill, but is far from cocky about it. much of the way he appears, nearly five hundred years later, is how he looked back in his own time. there's something about his gaze that is bold tempting and frightening at the same time. his eyes are a deep blue - flecked with both pain and passion. to each person, they mean something different. with those he wishes to entice, they are the line that reels them in and the net that traps them within a love-drunk state. and as for those who wish to do him harm, those same eyes are a piercing ice storm, meant to damage the soul. for the most part, lucien does his best to advert his gaze from others, keeping his distant to avoid the questioning behind his mysterious oculars.
simply put, everything about lucien is clean-cut. though he keeps his hair a bit longer than most, its always combed through properly and kept in check with dab of gel. no matter the amount of trouble he endures, he always seemed and clean and pressed as he did when the day started. facial hair is an option that switches every few years or so, along with the location and details of his life - so as to avoid suspicion by mortals.
by no means is mister colevra considered meek. just as his father, he's breached the six foot mark and towers over most of his daily acquaintances. though he was royalty during his mortal life, he often competed in jousting competitions. he trailed heavily, as any knight would have, and his body improved with his training. even before becoming immortal and gaining the set of perks with it, he was very much in control of his physical strength.
personality ;
for a vampire, especially one involved with so many of his kind, lucien is actually quite endearing. overall, he is liked far and wide with few hating him. he has refused to choose an allegiance and caters to all who wish to use his services. he is an extremely generous man and will help another, even if it does not benefit him in any way.
lucien lead his mortal life as a member of a royal family. he was taught how to behave properly, be polite, and was provided with teachers for literature, art, and mathematics. he did not become a pompous jerk like many wealthy patrons of his time, but instead embraced the idea of learning and taking on new ideas. it is because of his upbringing that lucien is a well-rounded man, loving both art and literature. he's quick on his feet and easily provides solutions to situations others may be puzzled with. the entire basis of his operations have been designed by his own thinking and with the help of no others.
despite his typical good intentions, lucien knows just how to play a deviant. he has arrangements with both beings of good and evil which tends to get him into a bit of trouble. small white lies easily fly off the tip of his tongue in order to keep his orders safe and sound, not to mention avoid his own painful death.
without trying too hard, he comes off quite witty and charming. lucien loves to pick up cheesy jokes that he ends up telling over and over again, eventually annoying his patrons. he's rarely every sarcastic, leaving all his humor to be considered genuine. its with this playful charm that he attempts to win over the ladies. chivalry was always something that was apart of his teachings as a young boy and it has something he has carried with him for his entire life. in his four hundred something years of life, lucien has easily charmed, persuaded, and seduced thousands of women. however, he's only fallen in love once. the pain of losing that love has never left him though he still searches and continues being the sweetheart he is. he sees a woman, even a mortal woman, as something that should be cradled and cared for - not brutally maimed. he'll take only what they offer from their body, never forcing or bribing.
lucien is as careful as he can be with those two weapons he's got in his mouth. he has to be. after all, when he's in a bloodlust frenzy, there's no stopping him. he's learned to control such urges over his years, feeding and taking only enough to keep him comfortable. however, when angered to his boiling point, it sets him into an uncontrollable rage - one in which he'll feed, and feed to kill.
bravery goes hand in hand with everything else in lucien colevra's life. he isn't afraid to speak his mind or put his foot down, no matter what kind of deadly creature stands in his way. he's seen many wars over his centuries of life and has long since lost any fear for them.thus far, he remains impartial to the waging war but if the time comes for him to fight or flee, you can be sure he'll be firmly planted in the ground.
history ;
living in the world of today, many have only the tales from history books to speculate what the ancient world was like. however, once such man can attest to many of the events that occurred nearly five hundred years ago. how? well, he was once a citizen of medieval england.
lucien alexander colevra was born to a wealthy family, along with his twin brother, on a disgustingly hot august eve. neither lucien, nor his younger brother would ever know the love of a motherly figure. it was clear shortly after their birth that adrianne was in poor health and would not live to see the outcome of her sons' lives. by the time the duke, sir william, had time to send for help, she was slipping away.
it was clear that william had no intentions of raising his children on his own. soon after his wife's death, he remarried and charles and lucien were given a sister. despite a rocky beginning, all three lived a comfortable life. the boys were taught about history, literature, art, and mathematics for hours a day before finishing off with their squire lessons. even at an early age, lucien showed much promise for jousting competition. though life as a knight was reserved for higher class citizens, william forbid either of his sons from competing in silly games nor engaging in battle. his kingdom was far too precious and his name too delicate to throw away if one of them were to be killed.
despite his father's wishes, lucien took to the jousting grounds in disguise. he soon became a favorite of the crowd, and even his father - unbeknownst to him. he worked hard during the day to convince his father he was pursuing his studies and trained for his physical activities late into the night. he would often wander into town, quite fully of laughter, and collect the bets that others had waged on him. from there, he'd take his earnings and thrown them to the poor. he had no worries, not responsibilities, and no qualms about any aspects of his life. he was a favorite on and off the playing field and absorbed every minute of it.he had a great steed and steady tactics. within a few months, he was at his peak and enjoying life. what could go wrong?
shortly after his twenty-eighth birthday and just before his appointment to the throne, lucien and charles returned home after a leisurely hunt to the maimed bodies of their father, step mother, and young sister. the response was obvious : war. his training as a knight had long since prepared him for this day, if only it hadn't come upon such morbid terms. and so it was, the bloodbath began.
after the fifth day, lucien had lost much sense of what had happened around him. he knew his dear brother had been killed hours before he himself lying in a field of rotting corpses. the stench was unbearable, like death was encasing him. he could taste the metallic crimson blood in his mouth, swallowing over and over to make it go away. it just wouldn't subside. this was it. this was going to be his death.
and then, he woke. hungry. famished. and something smelled so good, tasted so wonderful. nearly two weeks after learning of his entire family's horrific deaths, lucien awoke. but this time, something felt different. there was no warmth in his skin, no beat in his chest. he felt as though he was indestructible, perhaps not even alive. and then he saw her for the first time - arianna.
it took weeks, even months, for lucien to wrap his head around what she was, and what she had made him. he hated her for it, wanted to kill her, kill him. there were pure hearted people out there who sought to kill them - kill him for something he didn't even want to be! he had no choice but to work with her. lucien learned to trust her, work with her, even love her. they held their own special ceremony and deemed themselves husband and wife, to live forever and deal with what they were. for a moment, things were grossly idyllic.
but of course, not all good things last. much of what happened to his beloved arianna was blocked out by his subconscious mind. they were both stalked, hunted down, and tortured by a group of hunters. arianna was killed in order to get to lucien, all for information he did not have in the first place. they wished to know where the rest of his kind were hiding. hell, he didn't even know their were others.
alone, forever. lucien forced himself to seek refuge in an underground coven in the heart of england. he spent decades in deep seated depression before his lively old self returned. he returned to his home, collecting what treasures and fortunes were left in the rubble of his once lavish life. during the late 1800's he transferred his life to the united states, building up his fortune and adding to his fame.
today, lucien has made a very successful, yet lonely, life for himself. he owns a dimly lit night club that caters to supernatural and mortals alike. its a popular hangout spot for many mortals and a dangerously good time for the vampires who stop in. deep below the depths of the dance floor lies a blood bank of women for service. carefully choosing mortal women who wish to be 'bleeders' for vampires offers an alternative to killing for a feeding. though you have to really pry it out of him, he is running a supernatural based black market as well. he's managed to remain ally to many who normally would have wished him dead due to the fact he is able to get his hands on many deadly or rare artifacts, tools, or supplies. need something? he's the guy to find.
