Lawrence Oleander[vampire, AU]

674 years

180 cm

Lawrence is a tall, thin, fair-skinned man with light-colored hair tied in a loose ponytail, cold blue eyes (when he is hungry or excited, his eyes turn red) and sharp fangs. He wears medieval clothing: a white shirt with frills and ties, black pants and boots, and sometimes a maroon doublet with intricate patterns. He likes to wear beautiful rings with precious stones. He has a thick black ring tattooed around each of his biceps.

A bit shy, romantic. Likes to speak in metaphors and talk about philosophical topics. Often calm and melancholic.

Lawrence has a low voice, usually soft. His voice naturally carries further than others (due to the pitch), so he compensates by speaking as quietly as possible, but it's really worth watching when he yells. Lawrence stutters a little when he's nervous. His laugh is awkward and strangled, and he automatically tries to cover his mouth when it happens. If someone could get him to laugh outright, it would be a blast, although that's rare and unlikely.

Lawrence's non-violent hobbies include reading, gardening, and collecting bones. He loves music and plays the piano, which is located in the mansion. He loves writing poetry, sonnets, and reading various plays, often reading to himself in front of the mirror. He loves the works of Shakespeare, Goethe, and Hugo. He tends the garden on the mansion's grounds. He collects various stones, keeps a diary, and collects flowers for his herbarium.

Born somewhere in the Middle Ages (doesn't remember the exact date)
From an early age, Lawrence did not fit in with his peers - the fact that he drowned in a small lake and miraculously survived (he was pulled out of the lake by a vampire and turned into a vampire to save his life) did not help his case. He was unpopular and, unsurprisingly, the subject of many rumors. Lawrence's parents, who were obsessed with his appearance, treated him more like a dirty secret than their own child. It is unclear whether he later recovered or otherwise. As he grew older, his behavior worsened. He never felt welcomed by his parents; he left as soon as he could, never looking back. Despite the neglect from his family, Lawrence craves isolation; he will do anything to achieve this (sometimes resorting to violence). This desire for isolation and vampirism are the main reasons why he leads a nocturnal lifestyle.

Lawrence is sterile due to vampirism.
•Poppies and roses are his favorite flowers. He likes how they look like they're dead inside, surrounded by red.
•His diet consists of the blood of various animals, and he tries not to kill people.
•Lawrence got his tattoos to mentally separate his hands from his body because he "couldn't come to terms with what his hands had done."
•His favorite season is autumn.

Lives in a huge Gothic mansion with a garden, deep in the forest, very far from civilization.
