Character Name:
Sherli Benson "Li"
Character Age:
700 (born during the Italian Renaissance) appears in 20s
Anime:
Hellsing/Tsubasa
Race:
Day Walker (Vampire that can survive in the sun)
Gender:
"Male" although the gender is more of an "it"
Physical Appearance:
Li has nearly platinum blonde hair, rather long, and "flowy". His eyes are an unusual mix of brown and red, as his fight between animal and human blood give him the unusual eye color. He as seen as ethereally pretty, as most vampires are, but he seems even more unusually attractive than most. He is usually seen in very dressy, fancy clothes: polos, vests, blouses, ect. And can be seen wearing an assortment of colored sunglasses. He either uses them to keep his sensitive vampiric eyes from the sun, or wears them to hide his unusual eye color. He can also be seen wearing a strange straw sun-hat. Seeing him that, allows people to believe he's very...eccentric. Perhaps metro sexual would make it more understandable.
Personality:
In truth, Sherli is a light-hearted person, with a habit of causing trouble. It wasn't that he didn't have respect for women, he just wasn't happy with just one. He can be rather blunt when he speaks, but can also be extremely manipulative and seducing when planning to feed. He has yet to remind himself that he can't drink like he used to.
Being not your average vampire, he enjoys eating human food; mainly sweets. He can also get drunk rather fast. When drunk, you could probably get him to do anything, but he probably wouldn't do much of a good job, being drunk and all.
When using duplication, the two of him are pretty much the same, but the duplicate seems to be more sentimental, a voice of reason, and overly dramatic at times. Also the kindest of the two and emotional. However, the "true" Sherli is seen to be rather dark, sarcastic, and down right agitated with people and his other self- though he is secretly searching for a way to keep them both from no longer fusing into each other so he doesn't have to put up with the other Sherli's thoughts and memories when back together.
Weapons:
He usually does not resort to violence, despite the trouble he gets himself in; but he has his fangs as weapons, and can wield a sword when need be.
Personal Items:
N/A
Special Abilities:
Duplication- He can make a second self, completely physical and of its own consciousness. It is still a part of him, however.
Duplication Projection- he can make a second self, projecting it any place he has been before.
Restrictions and Details- His other self and his original self can be no more than five feet closer to each other, if they move closer, they automatically fuse back together. The other self and true self have separate memories when parted, they do not know what the other is thinking or what the other knows during their separation. When fused back together, as a whole, Sherli has both memories as one. When one of them is killed, the memories the other had while separated will never be returned, but the one Sherli left over will then become the "original" and still be able to duplicate another self. Only if both Sherlis are found and killed, will Sherli die completely. If one is injured, while the other is not, once fused, the complete Sherli will still have the injuries, same goes if both get injured and fuse.
Regeneration- extremely limited, as his vampire form is rather unstable. Severe lacerations can be healed slowly, and can take up to two to three hours to heal.
Flitting- the vampiric ability to run extremely fast, almost looks as if he was flying
Inhuman Strength-Vampire's strength is five-times stronger than a human's.
Attacks:
Basically listed in special abilities.
History:
Sherli was born during the Italian Renaissance in London, England, growing up in its beauty and romantic era. As he grew up, he became a lady's man, so to speak. He would play a gentlemen and win the finest girl's heart, and then break it the moment he found an even finer woman. It wasn't until he was bitten, did he realize the last woman he wood was a vampiress. She was going to drain him of his life completely, but she began to think that forcing him to live as a monster would be more befitting of his already unbeating heart.
She left him there during his transformation and forced him to live out his new "life" alone. however, after several years in hiding, feeding off cattle and unlucky villages, he became strong enough to begin his journeys as most vampires do. Pretend to fit in with human society and trick them one by one to feed. However, since the transformation did nothing to change him, or bring him remorse for what he had done, the vampiress soon found him again.
She was not an average vampiress, either. She was also a witch. His little "adventures" were not going to go unpunished. She wanted him to suffer, not enjoy it. She knew about his strange vampiric gift he had been granted during his transformation, and felt that she could make it worse with add on features, so to speak.
First, she made it so his beauty was a curse, as she made it so that any physical contact with another being was more than painful to him. A single touch could bring undeniable suffering.
Second, was to make him freak among freaks. She made it so he was forced to live a life stuck in-between society. Neither male nor female.
After the curse was placed on him, Sherli found it harder and harder to feed, which in turn made him extremely weak. He had to resort from stealing blood supplies from hospitals until he realized he could drink from nearly-dead people or animals. So long as they weren't touching him, he would be fine.
He is now searching for a way to lift the curse, or find and kill the vampiress who placed it on him. He has yet to have any luck finding either.
Weakness:
His curse of being unable to be touched or touch another person without suffering pain.
