Question: do Snatchers exist in this AU?

Finite Incantatem [AU Harry Potter RP]

Writing up my character, will probably be done tonight or tomorrow-ish. :D

Supernatural - The Dark

Ha, that sounds just about right to me. Looking forward to it. :D

Also, I was thinking that maybe one of the ingredients needed for the spell would be vampire blood? Then y'all would actually have a reason to get Billy involved.

@FuriePhoenix Totally. But that's only if they don't murder each other first. :P

Supernatural - The Dark

It had been a quarter to midnight when he snuck into the back of the ER. No one paid any attention to him; they were too busy trying to help the people who actually needed it. Billy could smell it in the air, the sick and the dying, those who'll live and those who won't. But what got him the most was the blood, the hot, sweet smell of the blood. It's everywhere, permeating the air like an expensive perfume. His fangs extend a little, pushing down on his bottom lip, almost puncturing skin. It's uncomfortable, but it helped him focus. The sweet smell of the blood rushing underneath skin was almost too much to bear, just begging to be -

Why do you do this to yourself? It's not worth it, he can hear his own voice in his head, chastising him again for even daring to step inside this place. While Billy might not’ve been the most cautious of vampires, even he should’ve known the risks of putting himself right into the middle of a group of humans. It was horribly masochistic, sure, but the payoff was worth it. He could survive walking through a buffet when it meant he could get the particular kind of nutrition he needed without killing anyone.

Granted, he’d drained at least a dozen people in his first few months of vampirism, but that was besides the point. He was trying his best to go off the live stuff, and thus, that was all that mattered.

Inching closer to a 'Staff Only' door, Billy checked to see if the coast was clear. People still didn't look his way. If anything, they avoided catching his eye. He was the last thing from intimidating, but as a vampire, there was something about him that made people instinctively shy away, even if they didn't know why.

Slipping inside the room, the door clicked shut behind him, and he quickly set to work. The sooner he got out of here, the better, but he wasn’t about to pass up the chance to try out some of the more… exotic fare. Who knows when he’d be able to pull something like this again, right?

Slurp.

Sluuurp.

A long, heaving sigh of satisfaction escaped from Billy as he sucked up the last of the blood through a neon green silly straw. O negative - his favourite. Of course, it wasn’t quite as good as it would’ve been straight out of a jugular, but hey, beggars couldn’t be choosers. Microwaving the blood bags for just a few seconds to get them to just the right temperature was a neat little trick he’d picked up a couple months back. Not like he could do much else with them, anyway. The amenities of a motel were sparse at best, and that was putting it gently.

Just as he was about to retrieve the fifth serving from his messenger bag, the overwhelming stench of rotten eggs filled his nostrils. Uh-oh, that wasn’t good. The last time few times he smelt sulfur, things didn’t turn out too great for him. What was behind these strange occurrences? He didn’t know, but one thing was for sure - they fucked him up big-time. Whether it was bad luck or something else altogether, the trail of carnage left behind put the law enforcement on high alert, making it near impossible for Billy to even keep himself fed. People got antsy, and just the thought of having to leave town yet again pissed him off.

Just as he was having an internal debate with himself on the merits of leaving versus those of staying, the scent of sulfur was gone, almost as quickly as it’d surfaced. For a moment or two, Billy simply sat there, waiting for the stench to return, but it never did. Well, that was weird. What was he supposed to make of that? The whole blink-and-you’ll-miss-it thing unnerved him, but he wasn’t about to hit the road just because he smelt some rotten eggs. He had a good thing here, and it was honestly shocking how the hospital he kept stealing from hadn’t caught on after this long. Billy wasn’t complaining, though. The subpar customer service made his job a whole lot easier.

Sweet, I'll start working on my post then.

History

Childhood wasn’t quite as picturesque for Billy as most others’, with a drunkard for a father and a mother who struggled to make ends meet, he didn’t exactly grow up surrounded by sunshine and rainbows. But still, that was something he wanted. A loving, close-knit family, just like the ones in the paintings of Norman Rockwell. His father’s idea of a bond with his son, however, was keeping women his father brought home at night a secret from his mother. While Mrs. Murdoch thought quality time with Billy was handing him a list of household chores to do as she spent her days waiting tables at the local diner. Other than that, Billy, for the most part, was left to his own devices.

Which may be the reason why he was so intent on getting attention outside of his home. The neglect he felt from his parents translated into rowdy, rambunctious behaviour as a kid, which then evolved into sarcastic remarks to his teachers in high school. From setting off the sprinklers, to surreptitiously peppering the history teacher’s chair with thumbtacks, he was notorious for the pranks he pulled. You had to be living under a rock to not know his name, in fact, and Billy loved every second of it, no matter how many times he got sent to the principal’s office. It was a good thing the principal claimed he had so much potential, if only he “channelled his energy appropriately” - whatever that meant.

On a rainy afternoon, at the local diner, the then seventeen year-old Billy struck up a conversation with a young man from New York in town for a funeral. One thing led to another, and after a several day affair, he told Billy to leave with him, back to the Empire State. Not seeing how anything bad could happen, Billy bought himself a one-way ticket to New York and left for the train station, leaving behind his parents’ nothing for a note explaining everything. Little did he know that things would never be the same again. He never saw it coming, he never anticipated the moment when razor sharp fangs sank into his neck, draining the very life out of him. The last thing he remembered before falling unconscious was the taste of metal slipping past his lips

And then, a gasp of air filled his lungs, eyes shooting open. An iron hunger burnt deep within the pits of his stomach, he came across an unsuspecting morning jogger. He felt no remorse as he leapt upon the woman, sinking his teeth into her limbs much like his maker had done to him the night before. Soon enough, every last drop of blood had been drained from her, and Billy was finally satiated. Blood dripped down his chin, as widening, blue eyes roamed the destruction before him. He was no longer human, but a vampire. With nothing more he could do other than to run, he decided to follow through with his original plan, fleeing to New York to find some answers.

Unfortunately, even after months of searching, Billy never uncovered any trace of the vampire who turned him. Plus, the curious pattern of missing blood bags and the occasional, dried-up corpse were beginning to garner him unwanted attention. It wasn’t long before he had to leave the city, travelling across America with whatever money he could scrape up from his various victims.

Personality

The first thing most people see when meeting Billy is his spirit. He’s always been an energetic one, full of life and personality, almost to a fault. The guy is, by nature, extremely impulsive, both in the things he does and the things he says. As far as he was concerned, at least as a human, life was too short to sit around and let shit happen. It’s all about the now, and how you handle the people and things that surround you. If he likes something chances are he’ll let you know it, and if he doesn’t, well, he’s never been shy about voicing his opinion in that matter, too. Try as he might, he’s never really had the best poker face in the world, and it tends to give him away more often than not.

On a regular basis, despite his predicament, Billy is of the happy-go-lucky mindset. He often finds himself stating that no one should take life too seriously, because in the end, everyone ends up in the same place - even if he doesn’t truly believe what he’s preaching. More often than not, he can be seen with a smile on his face, and he’s always quick to crack a joke or make a teasing remark. He’s never uncomfortable; in fact, his boldness often borders on brash and crosses into downright crude, thanks to his lack of a filter. If it’s on his mind, it’s out of his mouth. He’s completely indifferent to major events unless they directly impact him. When Billy gets serious and loses the grin, you know shit’s gotten pretty fucking heavy. Still, the vampire has never met a boundary he wouldn’t cross. He’ll go to bat for you if you make him laugh, if he likes your style, or if you have an offering that tickles his fancy (he’s really quite fond of stuffed animals, cigarettes, and puppies, just as an FYI).

Powers

- Extremely enhanced senses that include being able to smell humans and vampires over long distances, and the ability to see in pitch darkness.
- Sharp, pointed, retractable teeth that emerge from his gums and extend beyond his human teeth.
- Indefinite lifespan, seemingly immortal unless killed.
- If he has enough human blood at his disposal, he can heal quickly from any wound besides amputation.

For your review. Might be a little wonky in some places because my brain isn't working too good right now, but yeah. :P

Supernatural - The Dark

Actually, I was thinking he'd be a little something like Benny, who got roped into the whole leviathan business only after he met Dean. But if I have to make a demon, angel, or human instead, I'm okay with it, because I don't think I'll have the time to play two characters. :P

Anyway, whatever I end up doing, it's gonna have to wait till tomorrow because I'm about this close to passing out. x.x

Supernatural - The Dark

Still accepting? I was thinking of making a sorta kinda newly-turned vampire or something along those lines.
