Doctor Madison Lewis Lovette
Nicknames/Aliases:
Mad, Maddie, Fruitcake
Gender:
Male
Age:
A little over 300, was bitten at 24
Species:
Vampire
Rank:
Cryptid Behaviourist
Description:
Although Madison is a man, and identifies himself as such, it is difficult to come across a day where he isnât cheerfully donning skirts and blouses- as opposed to the usual jeans and ties. The vampire greatly prefers more feminine attire, and will take his time to apply makeup most days; although even without it, Madison appears more on the fair side than not. He stands at about 5â6, with dark, chin length hair, darker eyes, and the pale skin and fangs that signify him as a vampire.
Personality:
A âglass half fullâ kind of guy, Madison tends to be quite friendly and good humored, open to most conversation and even cracking a few jokes from time to time. He has quite a long fuse when it comes to things, making it rather difficult for him to get riled; however, when he is, he tends to hold grudges against those responsible. He is also fairly empathetic, although he is still willing to pick up a weapon when necessary.
Skills:
Madison possesses a fair deal of knowledge on the workings of cryptid behavior; the differences and similarities of a turned cryptid versus a born one, how age tends to affect a cryptid, the personalities of one in a group as opposed to alone...so on and so forth. Aside from his knowledge, he also has the usual vampiric swiftness and abilities, as well as a penchant for stealth. Combined with his talent with a rifle, Madison makes a fairly skilled sniper.
Weaknesses: Besides the usual weaknesses that comes with vampirism, Madison is quite weak, lacking skills in hand-to-hand combat through his focus on speed and stealth. As such, he does not tend to be durable in the face of a direct fight, and will oftentimes prioritize putting distance between himself and an attacker.
Brief History:
Madisonâs early life was...interesting, to say the least. The son of a less-than-rich-blacksmith, the boy was groomed from a young age to take up his fatherâs job when the time came, set to tinker with scraps of metal and failed works. Madison seemed quite content with his role, although he occasionally slacked off to read one of the few books his family had around the house. He helped around the shop, even attempting to make his own creations from time to time, but, after his sisterâs death things began to change.
Madison developed a fascination with femininity. He began to don his sisterâs old clothing, storing them away when his parents attempted to prevent the habit. He would take rouge and cologne from his motherâs room to try it on, wearing them around his room and attempting to replicate the styles he had seen on the streets. As time went on, Madison developed a reputation as a respectable young man (although his habit still remained)- albeit a bit of a gambler whenever he scrounged up enough coin. He had a sweetheart, and was considering going into politics, much to the approval of his parents.
It was around this time, the state of relative normality, that he was bitten. Almost immediately after learning what had happened, figuring out he was no longer human, Madison vanished. No longer bound by the unspoken law set by his time, he was able to throw himself into his âhobbyâ, perfecting his imitation of the female form with time. He joined a coven sometime during the years, although he eventually left it on amicable terms after a few decades, choosing to roam instead. From time to time, Madison would temporarily shed his guise to participate in a conflict, although such events didnât last long.
One day, during one of Madisonâs âstrollsâ- as he called them- he came across an organization dubbed âSCIONâ. Having amassed a wealth of knowledge regarding cryptids, he set upon joining, and soon found himself putting his knowledge to good use as a Cryptid Behaviourist. He conducted several studies, writing a decent amount on his subject, although Madison faded into the shadows with SCION.
Upon learning of the return of the organization, Madison made a reappearance, acting as if the lapse hadnât existed at all and easily slipping back into his role- albeit with a good amount of confusion on part of the newer members.
Other:
- Very fond of fashion, and will oftentimes make suggestions as to what would look good on his coworkers (although, admittedly, Madison will suggest to other male members that they should try on gowns more often than not).
- Enjoys the more luxurious things in life, meaning that he has a tendency to go a bit overboard in buying new furniture or outfits for himself.
