BIOGRAPHY/IN CHARACTER QUESTIONS

Raleigh’s time on Earth was, in his words, unremarkable. Aside from his death, and turning into a vampire, not much unusual happened. He lived with his twin sister, worked at a local library, and volunteered at a cat rescue. He’s a vampire in his mid-twenties, but looks pretty human.  He has wavy brown hair, brown eyes, and two puncture marks on the side of his neck – a result of the incident which turned him into a vampire. His complexion is only a few tones warmer than a fresh corpse. Always cold, Raleigh wears warm clothing no matter the weather, often sporting several layers. He has a particular fondness for turtlenecks.

question #1: “what was the biggest mistake you made while you were still alive?”

After I became a vampire, I drank animals’ blood instead of humans’. It wasn’t healthy, but I thought that it was the right thing to do. I don’t know if it was, in the end. Someone was going to get hurt regardless. But I always made sure it was me. I never prioritized my own needs. Everyone else always came first, even when I was sick from drinking the wrong blood. I don’t know if it qualifies as the biggest mistake I made, but it’s certainly the one I regret the most. 

question #2: “if you were forced to be stuck in one place around town, where would it be and why?”

The bookstore in town, By The Cover. It’s the kind of place I would’ve spent hours in when I was alive, and they serve decent tea. I don’t like being trapped, but if I was stuck there… Well, at least with all the books I’d have something to do.  

question #3: “what is your greatest fear?

You’re really asking me this now that I know for certain there’s a Hell?

question #4: “what type of person do you think you would end up with? why?”

That’s a hard one. My last relationship ended with a stake to the heart, so I’m not really looking to rush into anything. But that doesn’t really answer the question, does it? I imagine theyd be the kind of person that doesn’t back down from a challenge. Someone honest, kind. Long hair has always been a preference of mine, but that’s not exactly a requirement. Regardless, I hope we both deserve each-other.

question #5: “you are given a magic lamp and three wishes that go with it. what would you wish for and why?”

It’s selfish, but I wish my cat was here too. I miss him a lot, and if there was a non-traumatic way to do it… I wouldn’t hesitate. If I couldn’t do that, I’d want to hug him one last time.

question #6: “how did you die?”

Stake to the heart. A bit of a cliche, really.
