Default Ceasing to beat around the bush.

Here, give this a whirl. I might add some details (like a name for the sword) if this is ok.

Name: Wolfgang von Battenburg
Age: Grandpa's Grandpa maybe
Gender: Man
Race: Vampire
Career: Self-Employeed
Appearance: 5'4", dead complexion, red lips, pointy ears, black hair slicked back on his high forehead into a permanent widow's peak, sports a short beard and a fu manchu mustache. Has a strong chin and prominent nose. Pointy blue nails. Dresses in a nice, poofy white shirt, grey vest, black pants, and pointy, shiny black shoes. Currently, von Battenburg has a black coffin strapped to his back and dirt all over.
Special Abilities: Is a vampire: Lives off blood, is dead, can beat up four guys with kukri knives and pistols, has to rest on native soil, messed up by crosses and stuff, can't go into a private residence without an invite, can't cross running water without help, not as strong in the day (read Dracula).
Turn into stuff: Little black terrier with a mustache or a little pig-nosed bat. At night can turn into a wolf-bat-monster-man, but that's an Oozaru-type of thing.
Undead charisma: Can hypnotize people (like, not Jedi mind-trick, it takes time and isolation) and has a productive working relationship with wolves and rats and such at night.
Swordmanship: The cursed sword he acquired can throw blades of ki and block ki attacks. It's not much use as a sword, though.
Equipment: 1x Coffin fulla dirt. Black with gold trimming, white padding inside.
1x Cursed Katana "Würger." Guard has been removed and hangs from a gold chain on the black scabbard. The blade's chipped and a little bent. Glows with red ki when drawn and won't go back in its sheathe until it has drawn blood. Gets along ok with von Battenburg.
99x Bags of treasure. Gems and coins and stuff. Kept in pockets and coffin, currently.
Biography: Skipping ahead to recent history, von Battenburg was living happily in a drafty keep over a rural peasant village, keeping to himself mostly, just popping out for a drink now and then. He was feared, yes, but not that much. Mostly, he was known for buying whatever curiosities came into town, as he was very bored.

A few weeks ago, some uppity college professor decided to tear all the doors out of his castle, etch crosses into all the stones, then burn the rest. He probably had a few grad students help. Nobody really felt like stopping him, since von Battenburg was a vampire, after all. His home destroyed, von Battenburg packed up his coffin and set out to find a new stalking ground. It wasn't the first time.

He hasn't had any luck so far...

EDIT: Never mind most of what I wrote below. Can't believe I forgot about Fangs

EDIT 2: VAMPIRES

Did somebody say vampire? (I was reading up on Dabura's page (because the vampire thing made me think 'demon' which made me think 'Dabura') before I wrote a post and found that. Never even knew about him before now)

But anyway, it seems like "Vampire" would fall under "Demon with vampiric tendencies (and is essentially a vampire in every way except for name)" in the Dragon Ball universe. Especially considering there's a Demon Realm. That's just my slightly informed via wiki opinion though. (I don't remember much about Dragon Ball even though I watched it a lot when I was really young. DBZ is a different matter though.)


Also, Toasty, I hope you are prepared for this to happen to Guy

Well, looking at all that, it seems vampires have ki. Huh.

Well, I'll leave it up to POS. At least the whole "can go out in the sun" thing has Dragon Ball precedent.

Oh yeah that's another thing I wanted to say (the dragon ball wiki derailed my original post a lot). Everything has Ki, even people who are dead, as shown by all of the dead people in the Other World

You know what? Yeah, I'll get rid of the sword. Simple is best.

Later, though. Drunk now. Typing is hard.


Slept on it. I like the sword; sword's staying. It's a good "Oh shit, he's serious now!" light.

Welp, it seems Toriyama, in his infinite wisdom batshit insanity, made sure to put all sorts of precedent in place for vampires, so Phil is approved like a mofo.

Also, I can dig the Cursed Katana, actually. I mean, just because everything has ki doesn't necessarily mean that everyone is expertly trained with it, so a vampire using an entirely different, more supernaturally-based fighting technique isn't exactly unheard of.

Astral Harmony will become famous soon enough. Eventually. Maybe.

Well, if we're going to be using some jokes from the abridged series, Robyn reserves the right to use the phrase "Goddamn it, Nappa" despite not even knowing what Saiyans are.

It's obviously become a figure of speech on Earth over the past couple centuries.

Obviously.

EDIT: Also totally missed a whole page wherein Toasty posted his profile, and he is accepted.
