I'll add one for now
Liberal Recovery Bank Head Office
This is the European head office of Liberal Recovery Bank found along the outside of the city, due to a lack of building space within the city itself. It mirrors in style to the one in down town New York city. The building itself, is about twenty-three stories high, and made of glass. The lobby is large and open with a lot of security guards looming around. There is a check in centre before you would have to pass through security, which acts much like an airport. Once inside there are offices upon offices, each having their own little room rather than the cubical style. Almost all of the building is working towards the company itself, but there are some of the lower floors rented out for the right price. Miss Dune’s personal office is on the top floor and is the size of about four offices put together.

Jig I was thinking that possible Lacey and him know each other, as they are both in business despite their slight difference in views in vampire/human relationships as well as Lailaa working at one of his bars, since I'm guessing he owns most of them?
And sorry Alida I don't think my characters would work for what your looking for. But it's possible the two vampires know each other

Alright, second character. I hope I explained everything in how you wanted me to explained (as we spoke about in the PM) if I missed anything or anything doesn't fit or sit right let me know and I'll change it.
Name: Lacey Rain Dune
Gender: Female
Actual Age: 84
Physical Age: 28
Nationality: Canadian
Occupation: CEO of Liberal Recovery Bank
Appearance:
Personality: Lacey could be labeled as a cold hearted bitch with a god complex. She believes she is better than everyone else and thus almost untouchable. She does not take orders well and believes she should always be the one giving them. Humans in her mind are mere pieces of meat that live only to feed them. However, Lacey does understand that not everything she does is legal and thus has to go around the law to get her way. She is short tempered and very rude. There are very few people she will speak kindly to and even then she usually will have a rude comment thrown in here and there. She tries to show herself as the perfect being, no flaws, but she has many that she hides very well, for one the fact that she does have feelings and a heart. Lacey is young and untrusting, believe she is fighting the whole world by herself and thus cannot trust anyone fully.
Attitude to The Age of the Vampire: Likes the idea of vampires and humans living and knowing about each other but believes that vampires should be standing above the humans.
Reason for being in Amsterdam: Head office of the bank is currently being moved there.
Vampire Traits: Lacey may be stronger and faster than humans, but by vampire standards she really only average and tries rather easily. Lacey struggles greatly with her blood lust and almost always keeps a blood and wine mix with her to keep her from attacking someone in public. Just the smell of it in the air will drive her crazy and side track her. In this way, Lacey has to feed a lot. However, with all the blood she takes in, she has great still with manipulation of humans. She had been rather good at getting people to do what she wanted them too when she was human and she had gotten ten times better now. Lacey’s OCD issues are no different than any other vampire, however, she lacks slightly when it comes to crowded night life, too many people everywhere, making a mess and being overly noisy so she will tend to avoid it as much as she can without crippling her business.

Sire Name: Victor Ellsworth
Sire Details: Victor and Lacey’s relationship was always very strained, even when she had months of total submission to him. Victor tried to make Lacey love him and want him as much as he wanted her for the company. Lacey would come out of her ‘hazed’ state of submission to remember her real goals and would try and keep focused on getting through the fledging without him realizing what she really had planned for him.
Progeny: None
Progeny Details: None
History: Lacey was born in 1930 in the country side of Nova Scotia, Canadian. Her mother was a stay at home mom who raised Lacey. Her father was estranged to her, always keeping his distant and hardly ever home. Many would believe this was usual for the growing business man despite the depression of the 1930’s. That didn’t mean they didn’t struggle and almost lose the company at some points during the depression. For her father had started his own bank along with his father which had covered all of Nova Scotia and was starting to move into the rest of Canada before the depression hit.
The true reason for her father’s estrangement was not because of his job or the struggles that came with the times but shortly after Lacey’s mother became pregnant with the Lacey, he was turned. The man who changed him was a mystery to Lacey, but had a big hand in helping her father keep their business going well in the fledging period. He worked alongside her grandfather in her father’s place.
However, at the age of seven her mother became very ill and soon passed away leaving the young Lacey to be cared for by her vampire father, whom did not have full control of himself. This left Lacey seeing her father as a nightmare, a monster as he was. By the age of ten they had to start to travel all over Canada for business and thus she started home schooling, where this teacher became her Nanny as the same time. Two years later, her father finally sat down his daughter and explained himself to her. What he was and why he had been so distance all this time. He told her not to fear him, that with time he would be a better father but Lacey already hated her father and what he was and brushed him off.
In her teenage years she was rather rebellious since they had money to burn and she was homeschooled. She’d find ways to get in trouble but at the same time was very isolated from people almost losing all ability to interact with them. However, that didn’t stop her from going into business for university. She was sent to the best schools in both the USA and Europe and excelled in both. By the time she was finished her schooling, her father’s company was starting to try and get some locations in America.
Lacey was the early age of twenty-six when she finished school and started to work hand in hand with her father. Despite how the two did not get along, the two worked very well together and easily started to gain a market in the USA. Although it was not large they both knew with time it would grow. Her grandfather then passed away when she was twenty-seven leaving her father and her as Co-CEO’s in his will. Her father did not like this at all believe he was going to live forever, why should he share his hard work with anyone else? So he hired a Russian assassin to kill Lacey. Luckily for her, someone had set eyes on her. A man named Victor Ellsworth. He pulled her out of a death blow at the last second, letting her get hit and sent to the hospital. Well at the hospital he told her what he was and how her father had hired the assassin. He told her that he would change her so they could take over the business and become the richest of humans and vampires and change how things work. She was high off of pain killers and pissed at her father and agreed.
Shortly after she left the hospital she went with the man to a remote part of Europe to deal with her change. This happened in the year 1958, shortly before the world learned of the vampires. Lacey had believe this would be a good place to hide well she changed and worked out the details of her father’s removal. However, the real reason she was taken so far out into the middle of nowhere was because, Victor Ellsworth was also her father’s sire. He explained this to her after the change was already in effect and he had all control. He never had to lock her away because he used his mind control on her to keep her in submission. Victor had learned of her father’s plan to kill Lacey, giving Victor the idea of gaining full control of the company without hiding behind the scenes anymore. His idea was to create Lacey into a vampire and marry her before taking out her father. Lacey had no intentions on marrying Victor. She spend the twenty years by his side at all times because he didn’t trust Lacey as far as he could throw her, despite the control he had over her. Lacey over the time had worked up her own mental powers and started to gain back some of her dominant personality against him. He should have removed that trait from her personality all together, but it was what he liked about her most. She was strong without being some crazed feminist.
Due to the time of her change, Lacey missed most of the transition from vampires being unknown to being known and came out being accepted for the most apart by society.
It was around 35 years after her change (1993) that he finally gave her more space and the two killed her father. He simply disappeared. Victor had used his control over her father to get him to leave the country and killed him somewhere in South Asia well Lacey was left in New York where the head office had been place. By this time their company had spread through Canada and the USA and parts of Britain and Germany.
After about a month Lacey finally reported him. She was questioned but never really thought to be behind the disappearance of her father and in the end deemed it a death by conversantly between humans and vampires. It was now 1994 and Victor was ready to move onto the next part of his plan and marry Lacey. However, during their time apart Lacey had grown stronger and was able to come up with a plan to kill her sire. She refused to be controlled and was to prideful to be anyone’s ‘bitch’ as she called it. Sadly, this murder didn’t go over as well as her father’s.
She just barely got away with it and by 1998 she was finally deemed innocent. It was then that she left a man in charge of the head office so she could work on taking over the rest of Europe with her company.
Today, her company has locations in most European and a new head office in Amsterdam, and a second still in New York. She spends most of her time in Amsterdam because of the high population of vampires and other wealthy people doing business there.

Haha agreed. But I thought it'd be a nice touch to have someone who works in that area who is human.

No worries and great! I may no get my other character up till tomorrow since I work at six am.
Alright, here goes nothing, first character
Name: Lailaa Mary Visser
Gender: Female
Age: 26
Nationality: Dutch
Occupation: Club Dancer/Stripper/ Blood Donator
Appearance:
Personality: Lailaa is very fake when it comes to interacting with people at work. She puts on a flirty and happy personality for the people to see as a way of making more money. However, due to her history she is very depressed and hates life. She is currently working on turning her life around but still struggles daily trying to make herself really happy. She is very submissive when being told to do things and doesn’t really know how to say ‘no’. She tries to project herself in a way people want her to be and therefore, can slightly change how she acts with the people she’s with. Over all though, she tends to keep to herself and doesn’t voice her own opinions. She never acts shy at work, because that’s not the real her in her mind, but if you try and get closer she is very closed off and shy. If you try and get close she tends to close off even more and push the other person away.
Attitude to The Age of the Vampire: Lailaa is all for the vampire age and is very apart of the culture of it all. As much as she’d like to leave the night life and start to become ‘normal’ as her parents had been, part of her craves to always be a part of it without her realizing it.
Reason for being in Amsterdam: Born and raised there, stayed for work.
History: Lailaa was born and raised in Amsterdam. She had been lucky and her family didn’t have to become donators. Her mother was a teacher and her father a cop. However, she is not fully Dutch. Both her parents were born and raised in area, her mother’s father was a businessman from the USA. He came over for business trying to make some deals with the vampires of the area when he met her grandmother and never went back. It explains her more Americanized first and middle name well her last name remains Dutch.
In Lailaa’s childhood her mother tried to keep her as far away from the vampires as possible, creating a slight fear for the mystery creatures known as vampires, or ‘them’ as her family called them. It did not help her impression of them as her father spoke of them from his job when she would lay in bed trying to fall sleep. As she got older and they started to learn more about the vampires and their way of life connected with theirs, they still scared her but where so alien as they used to be. At one point they even brought a few in to talk to the class to help them understand that they were not to be feared and that they were meant to be viewed as everyone else.
It was shortly after that visit from the vampires into the school classrooms that she would really start to notice how many of the people in Amsterdam were vampires and as she got to her first year in high school she no longer noted the difference between the two races and accepted them as the same despite how her mother’s views were.
High school was when Lailaa started to real change into who she is now. She had the same views of one boy, Carlo, whom was in many of her classes in her first year. The two started to date within the first few months of their school year. However, as time went on and they started to change as all teenagers do, her Carlo started to become abusive. It started off by isolating her from her friends, and keeping in contact at all times. If she didn’t reply within five minutes of a text, he would send another, by the fifteenth message if she still hadn’t answered he’d call until she picked up. By their second year of high school he was mentally abusive to her. Telling her that she wasn’t good enough and that the was ugly if she did things he didn’t like. As a girl whom had loved for the first time she was too blind to see that he was abusive to her.
As the end of their second year, her parents finally started to step in and try and get her to break up and no longer see the Carlo. He did not like that at all and convinced her to drop out of high school and run away into the worst part of town with him. Neither of them realized how hard it’d be to live on their own, and soon enough he had her donating her blood for housing, food and more. It was only when she asked why she was the only one who had to donate that things started to get abusive. She had to be totally submissive to him and listen to everything he told her or else he’d hurt her. She started to turn to drugs and alcohol as a way to numb herself. When she turned eighteen, Carlo had become a local dealer and she was forced into the vampire night scene. She started off as a dancer, then started to strip. The deeper Carlo got into crime the lower she had to go. When she was twenty-one she started to go into the private room with clients, where she’d let them do things for the right price, the one being drinking right from her neck.
With her life hitting such a low point, where she no longer loved herself, and at twenty-two tried to kill herself and failed which only made matters worse at home. The beatings happened almost every three days, and the screaming at her every day. She didn’t know how to get out of the relationship now, but she knew now that she wanted to leave him and no longer loved him. So at the age of twenty-three she checked herself into rehab to get cleaned up. It was a long year there but it was good getting the space from him. He was pissed and came to visits her everyday and almost got kicked out every day when he started to mentally abuse her. They all tried to get her to leave him, and the city, but she couldn’t. She was too scared to and something about this city just kept pulling her in.
So when she finally left rehab clean, she moved back in with Carlo and nothing had changed. At times she thought about going back to drugs and a few times she almost did if it wasn’t for one of her vampire clients, Anthony Caito helping her stay clean. She did start to pick up drinking again and would get wasted a lot, but in her mind that was better than going back to cocaine.

I have one of my characters done. Would you like me to post it now or wait until my second sheet is done as well?
That leaves me with a good question, how does the feeding effect the human (when taken directly fangs to skin)
Hey Jig, I sent you a PM with some questions about my character (just some things I want to make sure are okay before I go and write it all)
Great! :)
Oh that's good to hear. I was going to ask that later on since I thought it'd be fun to play both a vampire and a human. I'm currently trying to get another girl to join as well since she has been craving vampires :)
On a side note, I am going camping from the 23-1 (ten days) so I will not have internet at that time, but I'd still really like to join if that's okay? If need be I could always hold off on my character's joining till after I get back if things don't start before then.
