New Character~

[flammenschwert.livejournal.com]

Herit here again, this time introducing Radu from Trinity Blood. For starters, I'm not going with the "Barvon" translation of his last name, because 1) makes no sense with the katakana, 2) is not a real word/name, while "Barufon" (the more direct translation) is and makes sense for his ethnicity. ... that probably interested nobody, but thought I'd say it. XD

I guess Trinity Blood is not that well-known or popular, so a little intro: The boy (18 - seriously) is a Methuselah, or, to most "humans" in Trinity Blood, a "vampire". He, in return, like all of his people, calls humans "Terran". Trinity Blood has no magic or supernatural things like that, other than technology - hence, the vampirism stems from alien nanomachines in a person's bloodstream. Infection is unlikely (and mostly results in non-lethal or lethal brain-damage), unless you are born that way. As for stats, those vampires tend to naturally be at least ten times as strong and agile as a human, with regeneration and a "Haste" mode, in which by straining their nerves, they can literally move faster than the human eye perceives for a while. But, of course, that's quite exhausting. Most vampires also can transform their hands to claws, and some have added special abilities. Radu? Is considered physically strong (despite being a thin teenager) and in physical combat quite powerful, because he belongs to a subrace called Ifrit - as the name suggests, with the ability to create fire in their palms. The palm itself is fire-resistant, the fire 80 times as strong as napalm, blue, spreading fast, and a bitch to extinguish. There are several ways to seriously wound or kill a Methuselah: 1) silver (both deactivates the Bacillus temporarily and is poisonous enough to kill in more than small doses), 2) sunlight (takes less than three minutes to kill one, at direct exposure, sends the nanomachines in hyper-mode so that they start to eat the body from the inside, while the vapour created in the process looks like smoke, so that it appears the vampire is burning), 3) untreated "Thirst". Thirst means, of course, thirst for blood. TB-vampires have that craving rarely, only every few days, but if they don't act on it (mostly with haemoglobin pills dissolved in water, since direct blood-sucking is considered barbarous), it grows worse, and at last, they lose control, or, if even then they can't get to blood, the nanomachines inside them, which are really the ones that live on blood, start eating them from the inside.

Sorry for TL;DR, that was probably all. D: Right, for what he lost? His memory of Dietrich, while he does remember everything he did. Hence, he'll believe it was all by his own free will. ♥

I am so amused now. Only Caterina remembers Dietrich. XD

AND OMG YAY!

[flammenschwert.livejournal.com]

Oh my... Who says he ever existed, if nobody but her remembers him? MIGHT be her going crazy. :O

ALSO, ESTHER. <333 LOVE!

[fondest.livejournal.com]

It probably is~

X3

[nexexmachina.livejournal.com]

HAHA. Poor Caterina. TB cast is against her and whoever apps Dietrich is going to have a FIELD DAY.

[flammenschwert.livejournal.com]

Seriously, Dietrich coming here will be... awkward. XD

[clemently.livejournal.com]

Dunno, he'll probably TAKE ADVANTAGE NOBODY KNOWS HIM.

Except Caterina who is Orden and "ally" anyway.

[exanimatus.livejournal.com]

Zelman says that his fire powers are cooler.

BUT I THINK RADU SOUNDS AWESOME. Clearly, they should have an epic vampire battle sometime. |D

[flammenschwert.livejournal.com]

ZELMAN. <3333

THEY SHOULD. >D And - does Zelman drink? For the emo/victory drinking afterwards.

[exanimatus.livejournal.com]

♥!

IT WOULD BE AWESOME. And alcohol doesn't really work on him, but he thinks it's hilarious to pretend while he watches his buddy get completely smashed. XDb So I say emo/victory drinking would be fantastic~

[flammenschwert.livejournal.com]

*dies* XD Okay, takes a LONG time and LOTS of it to work on Methuselah, too, but it definitely does. DEAL IS DEAL? >D

ALU, RADU.

[sword-of-life.livejournal.com]

Radu~ ♥

MUST. FINISH. OWN. MITSUNARI. APP. *trying to figure out a loss*

[herit.livejournal.com]

We need to bond with the fandoms the other doesn't know yet, some day. >D JUST THINKING OF HOW. Lu Xun and him could get along?

... if you make him lose his pretty, his smart, his gay, or his hair, I'm going to die. D:

[sword-of-life.livejournal.com]

LAWL. XXD YOU NEEDS AN EVIL PLOT YES? Hell yes. Bond other setting things on fire?

What do you take me for? LIKE I'D STRIP HIM OF ANY OF THAT! He wouldn't be Nari without those things. D:

[alwaysmoony.livejournal.com]

...He wouldn't happen to be Vlad Tepes' brother, would he? > > /geek

He and Remus can bond over silver hate. *nodnod*

[herit.livejournal.com]

... ASDFGH ♥ A fellow geek, marry me! And - yes, and no. Named after and inspired by him a LOT, being... a Romanian-born, Turkish-raised (at least the Empire in TB has both Turkish and Romanian terms, probably both as official languages, and the capital is Byzantium/Istanbul) "traitor" who tries to kill his (older) blood-brother? Although, frankly, IMO the historical one deserves less hate than he gets, while the TB one deserves less love than he gets, but fangirls are fangirls. Funnily, the boss of the whole rebellion, is called Süleyman - like Mehmed el-Fatih's great-grandson. I made an icon for that pun. ._. Have it.

And good point. >D Does Remus drink? Alcohol and opium always help things.

[broken-clock.livejournal.com]

♥! XD Well now. That certainly is just a bit similar. I agree, so very much. I was rooting for Radu. ...XD ILU, TB. *gets to reading, because yay* Pun icons FTW. ...The Doctor could bond with him too. While being confused. He actually met Radu. (Who was, incidentally, portrayed in a good light.)

Oh, hell yes. He can introduce Radu to Firewhiskey.

[clemently.livejournal.com]

My uncle's pyro bitch friend has arrived. :/

[swallow-cut.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't disenchant him, he only knows the NICE novel-version. DDD: If he met the manga-version... that'd be confusing. And probably unhealthy. >>

[clemently.livejournal.com]

I'm MOSTLY going with the novel version myself. ;) But manga icons are prettier? (Not to mention, there's like 4 Novel!Shahr images. Woe).

You know what's funny? How Shahr remembers the NICE NOVEL version Süley in Act. 39 which makes NO SENSE. Like somebody replace Süley. He maybe ALIVE somewhere. ;;

[so-many-needs.livejournal.com]

HALO THAR, PRETTY-PRETTY.

[flammenschwert.livejournal.com]

STFU GREED

GOD I HATE YOU Not really! <3

LET'S GET DRUNK

[so-many-needs.livejournal.com]

YOU GIVE ME THE ODDEST SENSE OF DEJA VU.
