UHHHHH BASIC STUFF ABOUT THE VAMPIRE AU WITH PRESTER HDJSJFJSJD

I do have the book but just haven't gotten to it, so I'm mostly relying on the smallest bits of the musical. Also, the 1931 Dracula movie

I don't have any title for this so I'll just tag it as Prester Virgil Vampire AU.

This thing is a whole work in progress so lore changes are gonna be made. It is not an exact story of Dracula!

The cut-off here!!!

Essentially. Here's the beginning of tidbits of info I have. Ehrhdjqlckw. Nervous.

The story first begins with Count Erclaim who is pondering his next plans. His plans being of one to expand his power and empire. But first, he must pick a successor, which is not too easy to do. He would soon choose Prester. The reasons that he would be seen as unlikely to be a vampire, trustworthy to others, already in high power as a regional manager, and holds the spirit to do his bidding.

So, in the dead of night, he would soon enter his home and turn Prester into like him. Leaving before he would wake. At first, Prester would find himself in the confusion of his sudden energy at such late hours and the feeling of hunger. His urges would later kick in, which leads to the death of two cogs and one toon. He's filled with the thrill of both the hunt and the flavors of both cog and toon blood. As the night was soon nearing the end, he heard Erclaim's voice, who soon revealed his plans to which he obliged. To drain Toontown of its blood and to claim more under immortality upon their control.

Abilities of a vampire (based mostly on Dracula 1931). Immortality, telepathy, mind control (can be resisted by having a strong will and working on non-toon animals,) and the ability to turn into a bat. How one becomes a vampire and goes under the control of one is by blood fusing, drinking the blood of a vampire. The only way to revert this is by killing the first vampire which frees the other. The way to repel a vampire is by mirrors, crosses, hawthorn, and pretty much god. They often back in fear and/or repulsion upon these objects. Either by smacking them away or a reaction in fear. Killing one is by a stake through the heart. They also have a strong sense for blood, a simple cut would get them coming near.

For this part, the two thoughts I've had are on who he would pick and who he would kill. The first vampire under his blood is Misty. Managing to convince her of the positives of immortality. After vampirism, she acts the same towards other co-workers but holds a hidden bloodlust and ulterior motives for the next victim. Occasionally, Prester checks up on her for her current status and problems. He likes her like a granddaughter of some kind.

He would soon pick Graham next, with him accepting at first but would soon back away from it. Graham attempts to kill Prester but is immediately stopped, and seeing this as an act of betrayal, he soon imprisons him. Under the idea of either killing him or making him a vampire regardless of whether he refuses or not.

Buck is Renfield, and Brian is Dr Steward. After witnessing the immortality and new abilities of Vampire Prester, Buck became fascinated immediately. This gave him the idea that he, too, could claim such skills by consuming the life essence of other creatures. Hence the bug-eating and devotional servitude to him. He is not a vampire but holds a psychic connection with Prester. Regardless of his assistance to him, he's still good-hearted, which leads to his unfortunate death. Brian has no idea what has gotten into him yet is very intrigued and interested to know why. Leading to him often keeping Buck in the schoolhouse basement to research his acts. Not knowing who this "master" is and what gave him the idea of bug-eating.

Benjamin would be a victim of Prester one night, only to be saved by a crucifix necklace a worrisome toon has given him. He is the lead and strongest clue they have as to who the vampire could be. If he was killed or not there that night, then Erclaim's plans would've succeeded. He becomes a lead investigator upon these deaths and may or may not become Prester's love interest. Which can go as badly as you think it would.

Holly is also here as the Van Helsing! The first to help and believe Benjamin after witnessing an attack herself yet knowing not who did it. Ultimately, she's the protector of the team and has the most knowledge regarding superstitions. Mostly due to her being in Ye Olde Toontown. She contributes to the investigation by her knowledge of these beings and any possible clues that may help. If she wasn't here then later in the story, they're all going to be dropping like flies. Additionally, she would only have basic protection against vampires but would later be met up with a Toon who would share their information with her. Before their inevitable death, womp womp.

Benjamin and Holly are Utterson and Enfield. And I suppose you could say Buck is the Jekyll and Prester is the Hyde. Since Buck does have a good heart but Prester is... well.

As for the rest, I am unsure of what other roles they can play. But I am open to suggestions on what they can do in the story!!! Whether it be other managers or toon characters! Cause I'm the only one writing, lol.

As of yet, I have beginning and end ideas of how it'll go. But the middle is still being figured out! I'm hoping to have at least five parts to the story. Prologue, Act 1, Act 2, Act 3, Epilogue. The prologue shows Erclaim's plans and enactment, Act 1 is the character and plot introduction, Act 2 is the investigations and Prester's actions, Act 3 is the part where they plan to end it all, and the Epilogue is the aftermath.

AAAAAAAA THAT'S ALL JSDKKDJSJDKHSHS

I'm open to any ideas for changes in the story or additions to it!!! Yeye. Hope y'all have fun because I certainly am! Asks are open for questions, suggestions, and other messages too!!
