Gerard Arthur Way - enemy vampires

Gerard had an appearance straight out of a gothic horror film. His skin was very pale, literally white, which contrasted sharply with his straight, slightly disheveled black hair that fell in uneven strands around his face. His large, dark hazel eyes stood out even more thanks to the black eyeliner he usually wore, giving him an intense, tired, and defiant look all at once. His dark eyebrows framed very expressive features, capable of shifting from a mocking smile to a melancholic expression in seconds. He had a thin face, a defined jaw, a straight nose, and thin lips, with slightly longer, sharper canines that he often held in a slight grimace. His build was slender, and his movements conveyed a restless and chaotic energy. He usually dressed entirely in black, with blazers, red ties, fitted shirts, dark trousers, and simple accessories, projecting a dramatic, elegant, and rebellious image.

Gerard was the kind of vampire who seemed to enjoy driving others to despair. Sarcastic, arrogant, and with an almost unbearable confidence, he always spoke with a mocking smile, as if nothing could surprise him or truly endanger him. He had a habit of deliberately provoking others, invading the personal space of anyone he wanted to unsettle, and delivering threats disguised as jokes with unsettling calm. He never lost his composure; even when someone responded with the same aggression, he would simply smile, as if any confrontation were a game he already knew he would win. Behind that defiant attitude was an intelligent, proud, and competitive vampire, accustomed to acting as if he were always in control.

Gerard's tastes were as chaotic as his personality. He was a fanatic for black coffee, even though it tasted awful, simply because he said good coffee should "make you question your decisions." He loved horror novels, comics, mysteries, and any book with a tragic ending. He listened to punk, alternative rock, and metal at absurd volumes, but he also had an unexpected fondness for classical theater and dark musicals, enjoying the dramatic dialogue and tragedies that ended badly for everyone. He collected vinyl records, antique lighters, and small oddities he found at flea markets. He preferred rainy nights, empty streets, old movie theaters, cult horror films, and any plan that involved getting into trouble out of sheer boredom. He was always smoking in any corner that allowed him to enjoy the ashes and their smell, and although he would never admit it, he had a weakness for black cats, quiet cafes and places where he could read without anyone bothering him... or at least until he found someone to annoy.

The Noctis Aeternum Academy was a vast, black stone fortress hidden among forests and mountains, far from any trace of humanity. From the outside, it resembled an ancient Gothic castle, with soaring towers, dark stained-glass windows, and endless corridors illuminated by chandeliers and dim artificial light. Only vampires were allowed to study there; it was the place where the oldest families sent their offspring to learn history, combat, strategy, etiquette, thirst control, and how to live among humans without revealing their existence. The rules were strict: feeding within the academy, attacking another student, leaving the castle without authorization, or exposing the vampiric world were all forbidden. Those who broke the rules received punishments ranging from community service and suspension to confinement in the castle's crypts. Despite its prestige, for most students, it was still just a boarding school filled with homework, unbearable teachers, and classmates all too eager to start a fight.
