send me an au and i’ll give you hcs | accepting !!

so ruby’s of course that character from your favorite vampire series  --  her mother was a vampire,  her father’s from a long line of vampire hunters.  yay love story!  boo that summer still died under mysterious circumstances when she was young. 

being half and half means that she’s got a tiny bit of the best of both worlds going on.  any traditional vampiric weaknesses like sunlight are just mildly annoying,  which is why she’ll be perfectly fine with just her cloak.  however,  she’s not as stupidly OP as they are.  while she does have heightened senses,  durability,  and speed/strength,  she’s just a few levels about your regular human.  if you punch her,  she’ll still be pretty upset. 

EXCEPT. ruby has the potential to be stupidly OP.  but since she’s perfectly content not eating people under any circumstances,  she does not get to enjoy the benefits of immortality or invincibility or shapeshifting or whatever the hell vampires can do this in this au.  i don’t even know!!  y’all just be lucky i’m not basing this off twilight.  

if she did start drinking blood in,  say,  a dramatic anime ‘ turning the tides of this fight ’ moment,  she'd probably have to load up on that spf 100000 though.  changelog:  nerfed for balance.  added back in garlic allergy.

ruby’s status is generally an open secret w/ other vampire hunters who Frown Upon Her,  but thankfully the xiao long name has enough sway to keep it at just some grumbles and some distrust here and there.  

she does not help her case though by being pretty sympathetic to other vamps who got dealt shitty circumstances or don’t want to harm anyone,  because ruby in every universe is a bleeding heart.  whenever she starts on a contract,  there is a 50/50 chance she obliterates whatever vampire/other creature is causing havoc in this village and a 50/50 chance she just adds them to her merry band of misfits like a good ensemble protagonist.
