LIKES He enjoys bloodshed, sex with both men and women, the taste of faery blood and young men and women who taste good. He also likes rainy days and cats (yes, he likes cats, get over it)
DISLIKES He hates fang bangers, he finds them mindless horrid sub humans that are not worth his time. He hates those who are against the vampire league, and he dislikes those who go up against the Tribunal. He dislikes stupidity, and weak people as well as those who are narrow minded.
STRENGTHS Basic vampire powers, plus flight. He’s a soldier by nature and career, and so is very efficient with weapons and strategy.
WEAKNESSES His biggest weakness, though he’ll never tell anyone, is Jesse. The half Faery has worked his way into Nikki’s heart and he would kill anyone who gets in his way, even the Magister. Sunlight will kill him, and silver will incapacitate him. He is also bound to the ‘cannot enter a mortal’s home without permission’ edict.
OVERALL PERSONALITY Due to almost 3500 years of mindless slaughter and violence, Nikolai is a very troubled sort of vampire. Deep down he is tormented by the voices and faces of the innocents he had slaughtered during his time as a soldier in various armies, and he hides it with a brutal calmness. On the surface he is rather human like, playful and enchanting, but anyone who gets close enough can see this is just a ruse.
When tempted, he is very quick to drain a human, especially if they piss him off and he will not hesitate to kill any of his own guards. He despises many other vampires, and prefers to keep his home vampire free save for his own guards. He is very subtle when he’s mad, but if you push him too far he goes into a rage that is very hard to break out of. It’s all of the anger he bottled up during his fighting years that gets released, and he usually rips people apart when he gets like this. Afterwards, most of the time he can’t remember doing as such, and is very... innocent in terms, for a short while after these phases. Overall, he is a proud vampire, with a horrid past who wishes to keep it bottled up. The only problem is, when it concerns Jesse, his emotions go haywire and he has to struggle to keep himself in check for worry of killing the half Fae.

FAMILY Halima Tariq - Maker
Gabriel Argyros - brother of sorts / also progeny to Halima, making Nikolai Gabe's 'older' brother, in vampire terms.
HOME Town He was born in ancient Greece, to a somewhat unknown Mycenaean tribe.
OVERALL HISTORYBorn sometime during 1217BC, Nikolai – then known as Nikias, meaning Victory – was raised amongst fierce Mycenaean soldiers, and at the age of 16, was forced to fight in a battle against the Sea Peoples that then destroyed the Mycenaean civilization. He was found some time after this battle, dying, by a soldier from the Sea Peoples. The man had witnessed the boy’s fighting prowess and knew he’d be a brilliant companion and soldier in the future, and so gave the 17 year old a choice: die like his kinsmen, or live to serve and fight alongside Adonis, to which Nikias gladly accepted. For although he’d been raised as a proud soldier, he was afraid of death. Adonis turned him, and took to teaching him about being a vampire.
The next battle that Nikias would face was the Trojan War, some 25 years after his turning. He fought with Troy, and before the battle ended he left, finding no joy in watching people slaughter each other for the sake of a woman – a woman he believed to be not as beautiful as she was portrayed. Adonis was killed during this battle, and so Nikias had to go on alone, without a Maker, learning how to do everything for himself. He travelled through Greece, before making his way to Sparta, and proving his worth to the King, becoming a Spartan soon after. He found new joy in life, for the Spartans were very close to the Mycenaeans he’d been raised among, and he felt almost at home. No one seemed to care that he couldn’t come out during the day – he simply explained he had a sickness that made him allergic to the sunlight, but he still fought by night. He was among those who conquered Messenia. Shortly after this he left Sparta, faking his own death so no one would suspect that he wasn’t aging. He returned after spending time in America during the reign of King Leonidas some 300 years later, and was among the 300 Spartans who travelled with him to fight against Xerxes and the Persians. He slipped away shortly before Leonidas was overrun, and continued on through Greece, making hi way to Athens.
By this time, he was growing tired with human life, and longed for the fierceness and violence of battle and so made his way to Persia and joined with Xerxes, a man he’d previously been trying to kill. He rose to command the Persian army under Xerxes’ rule, and commanded the destruction of Athens. As this went on, he had to fake his death once comments of his constant youth began to circulate.
He did not resurface for another 150 years, when he fought for Alexander the Great. IT was around this time that he chose to take a progeny, and while he had some personal encounters with Alexander himself, he eventually fell for a young woman from Egypt during 332BC. They were together for the next 500 years, when their true selves were discovered and she was burnt at the stake in 232AD. This time, Nikias – now known as Nikolai – spent his time fighting anonymously. Finally he left Greece, and headed to Rome, becoming a soldier in the Roman army before he left for the Americas. Once there, he travelled across the country, coming across different commanders and armies. He didn’t fight in any – in truth, he was haunted by the numerous innocents he slaughtered.
It was during early 900AD that the Magister – Magnus – approached him and offered him a place in the Tribunal. He accepted, even though he despised the idea of Authority if it wasn’t his own, and eventually rose in ranks until he became a Tribunal enforcer, given enough authority to handle cases on his own.
For the next 1100 years, until the present day, this has been his occupation. Currently he lives in Shreveport, Louisiana, in an Authority granted home that is light tight, with a substantial pay for his services.

ROLEPLAY SAMPLE
It was still dark when Viviana woke the next morning, but she was sure that had something to do with the shutters across the windows keeping the sun from seeping in and searing her lover to a crisp. Speaking of, she felt warm arms tighten around her body as she shifted, and she let her dark eyes lower to the sleeping man beside her. Royce’s hair was tousled and fell into his face at odd angles, his otherwise handsome features seeming somewhat innocent and gentle. His hold tightened even more, and she squeaked before snuggling back down. Her lips touched his arm, and rose to his, capturing his mouth in a soft kiss before she pulled back and wriggled out of his grip.
His bed was warm, and she almost didn’t want to climb out from under the sheets. But, and her eyes flicked to the clock to confirm it, it was almost 10am, and while he didn’t have to be up, she had a job to get to. Her new friend Madison had offered her a job at her family’s store, Beltane. She didn’t really want to wake up Royce, especially when she knew vampires often got the bleeds during the day when they didn’t sleep. Glancing back at her sleeping lover, she flushed before pulling her panties and bra on, then tugged her dress back on, knowing she’d get a lot less questions from Thierry if she came home in her own clothes. After she was dressed, she found her attention once more shifting back to the sleeping vampire, before she moved back onto the bed, leaning over him to kiss him again.
“Sleep well, my love,” she whispered, before she scribbled down a quick note for him explaining that she was going to work and she had her phone on her if he wanted to call her. The note was placed beside his bed, and after searching for her shoes, she tiptoed out of the room, attempting to flatten down her hair as she made her way downstairs.
Luckily, she didn’t run into the housekeeper, and slipped out of Royce’s manor unnoticed. The morning sun greeted her, and she let out a very pleased smile before running across to the gate, smiling briefly at the human guard who appraised her before letting her past. “Thanks,” she smiled again, and then disappeared into the forest. She knew where the river was, and she knew it ran straight past her backyard, and after dipping her foot into the water felt that familiar pull as she became one with the element.
Who needed a taxi when you could ride a water’s current? Certainly not Viviana. A few moments later and she was stepping up to her backdoor, sopping wet hair trailing down her back. Thierry met her, and grinned at her appearance, and the small love bites that covered her neck.
“What? You have them too,” she muttered, glancing at the hickeys he possessed, before she caught sight of a blonde man sitting at the breakfast table. “Oh, hi...you must be Daniel. I’m Viviana; it’s nice to meet you. Now, if you’ll both excuse me, I’m late for work...”
She barely had enough time to get upstairs and change before she was out the door again, crossing the street into town. Beltane, thankfully, wasn’t too far from where she lived, and as her car was still in Shreveport, it was a handy thing. Madison was waiting for her when she arrived, and she gave the girl a breathy apology before moving to start restocking the shelves, her mobile phone tucked into her bra so she’d feel it.
It was strange, she was barely gone an hour, and already missing the sleeping monarch, the feel of his arms around hers, of his lips against hers...the warmth that had enveloped them. It had been perfect. Letting out a soft sigh, Viviana began sweeping, humming softly to herself. She was still sweeping a few hours later when her phone began vibrating, jingling a happy tune that broke her from her reverie. She scrabbled for the humming item, pulling it from her bra before bringing it to her ear.
"Hello?" she asked softly, hoping it was Royce.
