Accessories: A simple leather watch, and a simple leather collar bearing a small carving of the Vandros family emblem, which he has worn for many generations.
Powers / Skills: Same as other vampires, heightened senses and strength. The binding process weakens Vampires somewhat. But they are still far more powerful than most humans, just unable (and often unwilling) to harm them. In his spare time, he has also become an excellent musician, having learned the piano and cello.
Personality: Joseph has become a kind of advisor to the men and women who have owned him in the Vandros family. He is kind, distant, respectful, and always follows orders. But, he will speak his mind if he feels his master or mistress is acting unfairly. He helped to raise many of his charges before serving them, and as such has often developed a rapport that extends beyond mere servitude to a distant friendship.
Background: He was only 70, young in Vampire years, when the humans took over. But even at that young age, he had been a typical “violent” vampire. The kind who stalked the night and sucked the blood of virgins and all. When his kind were overrun, he was as furious as anyone else, and his first binding was of the strongest variety to get him to cooperate. But over the first two hundred years or so, he began to see that humans and vampires were at least equal, and that he deserved this life for the trouble he had caused, for the lives he had taken. After the first three bindings, the Vandros family no longer found it necessary to bind him completely to a new master, and only used the milder bonding measures. He stayed with them faithfully, and had learned to play the role of the perfect servant. In his mind, new Vampires who were not around during that time, and other more peaceful species do not deserve slavery. On a whole, he thinks that the idea is deplorable. But on a personal level, in his mind he is still serving a sentence for those he killed in his early life. His life as a slave has been a good one, as all but a few of the Vandros family have been fair masters that allowed him a relatively fair schedule, living quarters, and even the freedom to pursue his own interests during his free time.
