Special Skill: Because he is half vampire, he can attain powers all vampires can from drinking certain types of blood. However, while vampires have all vampire powers all the time and infusing human blood makes some of those powers exponentially stronger, Aidan, a dhampir, must infuse human blood to get those powers at all. Without blood, he is at peak physical condition (he is no match for supernaturals, but regular humans are much less strong than he is) and with blood he obtains all vampire powers at their regular level and more power in the areas pertaining to his specialized list of vampire infusions:
Type O: Able to hypnotize people to a very small degree. The hypnosis doesn’t last very long.
Type A: Senses are even more acute and have a broader range
Type B: Damage resistance is enhanced to a higher degree
Type AB: Small layer of fire can be added to hands for brief moments of time
Personality: Aidan, as a hunter, is passionate about what he does. He strives to rid the world of the threat, whatever it may be, and doesn’t stray from his path. He hunts with a fire in his eyes ignited by the hatred he has for his vampire father. He is hot-headed, stubborn, and very impulsive. However, though he doesn’t always do the “right” thing, whatever he does he does full-heartedly and tries his best to make good choices.
History
Early Life: When Aidan’s mother, Iona, became an adult, she met a vampire who seduced her and impregnated her. The vampire father stayed with Iona only to make sure the baby came out functioning and strong. Though the father’s motives are unclear, Iona would tell her son that he was made because his father wanted someone to carry on his bloodline and spread it into the human race. And because the father wanted to make sure he left a good heir, he stayed with the boy until the boy came of age. During that time, he rarely was at home, beat Iona and Aidan when he was at home, and continued seeing other women in order to create or dhampirs that would, as well as Aidan, help further his bloodline into our population. However, when Aidan turned 13, his mother decided to run away with him and leave the vampire hunter behind.
For a while (approximately two years), Iona and Aidan moved traveled through Europe trying to find a safe place to settle down. An Australian vampire hunter, who was also a long-time friend of Iona, lived in Australia and offered to house the mother and her son and keep them under his protection. However, when Iona and Aidan arrived at the hunter’s house, they found him dead and the vampire father standing over his body. The beast killed Aidan’s mother in front of Aidan’s own eyes and only spared the boy because he didn’t want to weaken his own bloodline. He took Aidan hostage for the next 7 years of his life and trained him in Australia to be a cold-blooded fighter.
Modern Day: At the age of 22, Aidan fled from his father’s estate and traveled to New Zealand on a storage ferry heading to the island. He’s been there for two years, hiding with the help of a witch’s spell, and in that time that has passed had dramatically modified his fighting style, his demeanor, and his way of thinking. In the solitude of the secluded island, he’s made an effort to forget the traumatizing events that happened in his past and counteract the cold, stern personality his father impressed on him and adopt a more passionate and feelings-oriented way of life. But with the technique 7 years of training has helped him develop and a burning desire to kill the species associated to the monster his father was, Aidan has been able make a decent living taking care of the vampire infestation that has plagued more isolated parts of the island.
