    “Yeah, yeah. I’m sure a guy like you knows EVERYTHING, huh?” There was a bitter edge to his tone, though still he remained calm. He may not have enjoyed listening to this guy run his mouth, but to rile him up would be a mistake. Fighting wasn’t an option, not here in the open. Not where others might see his FLAMES.  

    He was sure his flames – the blue flames of his father, unmistakably those of LORD SATAN – would be enough to snuff this guy out should push come to shove, but the aftermath is what worried him. Explaining to the local Blood Lord what a DEMON PRINCE was doing crawling through the underbelly of his territory? Worse than that even, having his FATHER know where to find him. 

    “Let ‘em come, I couldn’t care less. I’m minding my own damn business out here, so whatever happens to them if they start something – well that’d just be SELF DEFENSE on my part.” His tail had slowed, swinging now in wide arcs behind him – giving the boy the appearance of an annoyed house cat; yet the faint blue radiating from his eyes backed up his threat well enough. 

gritting his teeth tight, finding himself having to restrain from just screaming at this boy to go and save his skin, shell measured in a slow, steady breath. no. he would not become a CHILD simply because the other was so unwilling in listening to his warnings.

‘ self defense is a poor excuse when YOU are the invading party. that will be the explanation of the vampires that will come after you for stepping foot within lands that have long since stated that we do not welcome demons here. ‘ his father would be keen on making an example of this one, as he did all the others, cruel and unrelenting as blood lord in ensuring NONE thought for a moment they would ever supply mercy. he was confident in that pain overlord would be embarrassed that his own son had stopped instead to warn off their unwelcome guest, rather than taking action upon himself.

brows furrowing at the imagery of pain’s disappointment, unwillingly did his pheromones temporarily flare, tied so strongly to emotion. quickly were they tamped back down, eyes once fixed upon the paved road snapping back up to the demon boy.

‘ are you passing through, or do you need something here? ‘

                   Arvis was well aware of what it was being asked of him. He just didn’t want to answer it. The sorcerer lifted a brow and gave the blond a second once-over ( his family name was Overlord? Really? ) before flipping Valflame open in his hand and stopping at some nondescript page, gesturing to the holy tome in response to the blond’s apparent disappointment with his previous answer. What was it that he wanted, exactly? Was a title not enough for him? It made things clear — that as duke of a duchy of the kingdom of Grannvale he was inherently of major holy blood, that as the duke of Velthomer in particular his lineage traced back to Fjalar and Salamander, the great fire dragon that had sided with Naga during the Crusaders’ Holy War against Loptyr’s forces.

                   "I am a wizard. A sage, specifically. Does that answer your question??”

                   What sort of Velthomer wouldn’t practice sorcery? It was almost as though he knew nothing of his noble House at all.

                   "I hardly understand what it is you’re trying to get at, sir. I’ve made myself clear enough.”

wizard.

the term was foreign to him, mind reaching deep within the recesses of his vocabulary to churn up anything that may sound similar. demons often boasted sorcery and some magics, but, did wizards do the same? were wizards their own species of demon, branching out from their more animalistic appearing brethren to blend in with the likes of man?

‘ ... i have never heard of a ‘wizard’ before. ‘ but he likewise was primarily ignorant of these lands, so comforted by the safety of his own homeland’s borders that he bothered not to research beyond its walls. perhaps that was the most damning thing at all. his father would have his head if he knew shell was ruining their name with his ignorance.

‘ are you a demon? your scent--it isn’t human. ‘

                  “Duke.”

                  A simple enough answer. Arvis didn’t bother turning to give the stranger any real attention until he’d finished sifting through his tomes and his paperwork, and even then it was only because he realised he wasn’t bothering to go away.

                  "Duke Arvis Fjalar Velthomer of the dukedom of Velthomer, right hand to His Majesty King Azmur, captain of the Weissritter royal guard. Does that suffice?? Who is it asking??”

oh, he was one of those. it had not been the question he had been acting, but the rambling title was enough to provide him time to recover himself. his momentary lapse in wake of that strange scent was quickly brushed aside, reining back in with steeled eyes and straightened spine.

‘ shell overlord, heir to the overlord empire. ‘ his title was by no means as flowery as arvis’, but it saved him his breath. ‘ introductions aside, that was not what i had asked. ‘

should he have left it at mere introductions, rather than pushing on with his original intention? perhaps, but that wouldn’t stop him.

‘ --- what are you? ‘ a scent foreign yet familiar, of something he had never known intermixed with the familiarity of a human’s blood. what was he?

kajikuma:

    His tail lashed behind him irately, displayed openly despite knowing it was a beacon for TROUBLE. He didn’t have the energy to hide it anymore – to blend in with the SHEEP around him. Was it better to be treated like cattle or an enemy? Honestly, he hadn’t figured that out yet. 

    “Yeah – I don’t know the last time you left your cushy little castle or whatever, but it’s not exactly a WONDERLAND out there.” His tone wasn’t malicious ( as it may have been had the steely blonde stumbled upon any of his kith or kin ), but wary. 

    “We’re not really big on FAMILY; and I’m not big on confrontation.” The less he had to make a show of himself, the better. To see a demon wandering the streets was one thing, but should Rin need to draw his flames and make his lineage known, there would be more problems than he cared to explain.

‘ i have seen plenty enough to know what it is like outside our boundaries. ‘

or, at least, had heard and read. the prized heir of pain overlord, while near as powerful as his own father, was not permitted to wander terribly far from the safety of home. to be killed on any unnecessary excursions would deal a great blow to the overlord empire, and as much as curiosity may beg him to look beyond their walls, to see how the outside world may function, he bowed down before his duties first as heir.

such duties likely entailed killing this trespasser. he should not have presented him opportunity to speak, let alone breathe within these territory lines, yet he found himself... hesitating.

‘ you’ll be killed if you stay here, ‘ he warned, trying his best not to allow his true feelings to bleed out, to let the genuine concern he felt for the other’s safety show. shell kept his head tall and gaze steady, forcing out his words as a threat rather than the plea to run that he wished them to be.

‘ you’re outnumbered here. once any other vampire picks up your scent, they will come for you. ‘

kajikuma:

    Oh joy. Lips pulled downward, face contorted into a dull grimace before his eyes even found the source of the voice. He should have been paying closer attention, should have taken better care to avoid the ICE-VEINED creature now staring him down in – what was it, DISGUST maybe? Unfortunately, the FLOWERY scent that radiated from his flesh had permeated the area so entirely that Rin’s sensitive nose had failed to warn him before they crossed paths. 

     “You say that like there’s somewhere I am welcome.”

‘ outside of the territory of vampires, probably. ‘

there was a pang of pity that echoed within his heart, strings easily pulled for those shunned by all. within them did he see a part of himself, smothered and hidden beneath layers upon layers of careful manufacturing and emulation. it was not his own eyes that gazed upon the demon before him, but his FATHER’S, cold and unwavering.

an apex predator, untouched by the world around. yet, his heart sung a different song than what his mind begged to hear.

‘ don’t you have your own kind to go to? ‘ did he not have the comfort of family?

i covered it some on his about page, but i wanted to give a quick run-down of both canon things regarding shell’s vampirism, and then my own headcanons!

he can be killed by any normal means. no stake in the heart necessary. but he can endure considerably worse injuries than any human and survive, however...

shell heals as slowly as a regular human. his body scars, its leaves imperfections from injuries, and he needs medical attention like any other person.

he is capable of reproducing/general human functions. unlike vampires of traditional lore, he did not have to be bitten to be turned into a vampire. rather, vampires in this world are born, and their bodily functions are rather similar to their human counterparts. vampires in this world, in turn, cannot bite any human and turn them into a vampire.

vampires in this world evolved from humans. they changed in order to adapt to the limited resources available, and that meant to feed upon their fellow man. their bodies can no longer handle regular food, and they are primarily carnivorous. 

shell is capable of living off of animal meat/blood, but it is a hard transition. adapted to feeding off of humans, animal meat/blood does not provide the same nutrients to his body, and is a difficult diet to switch to. however, it can be done, and will not slowly starve/hurt him, only being difficult during the initial phase.

he is adverse to sunlight, but can survive when exposed to it. delicate to heat/sunlight due to his species’ adaptation to the great cold of their world, he is more likely to suffer heat stroke and burns in climates warmer than he is used to. subsequently, vampires became primarily nocturnal, and sleep in the day.

he rarely partakes in the act of biting someone for his meals. being of the civilized sort, his blood is farmed, and he would drink it like one would have a glass of wine alongside dinner. only in true desperation or when having no other choice would he feed upon a person.

casaunova:

and if you look to your left you’ll see the very definition of a power bottomed twink

and no it isn’t a mirror; those don’t work on vampires

and you will be pleasantly surprised that most mirrors are now made with aluminum, whereas it was the SILVER used in mirrors that caused those born of the devil’s work to not be able to see themselves! so, go ahead! take a long look into the mirror and have some self-reflection.

well if you ever needed someone who looked the very DEFINITION of a vampire, there he was---

[overlrd-blog]

‘ you are not welcome in these lands. ‘ the scent of demon rolled off of the other, flesh that would never know the meaning of cold still managing to prickle with goosebumps in reaction. in defiance of the warning bells that clattered loud at the back of his head, his chin tilted upward, eyes as frigid as the snow that blanketed the midlands.

‘ but you should know this better than myself. ‘
