Character Factoids

• He is a pyrokinetic. He can start fires with his mind. Yvette wanted him to start fires across America.
• His reasoning skills are not especially strong.
• He was a knight of the First Crusade before being turned, so he lived as a human in the late 1000's.
• His powers were suppressed by his Master, Morte d'Amour, but the longer he was away from the Council member, the more his abilities surfaced, until he realized he was a master.
• He discovered that he could call butterflies while in St.Louis. He considered it a wondrous thing.
• He could walk in daylight while cloaked, and also withstand weak sunlight. He wished to walk fully in the light but feared being burnt. In his mind, this was connected with God's grace. He was pleased that Anita's cross did not glow at him: this was his sign that God had not rejected him.
• Warrick was a sufficiently good swordsman to defeat Damian. Warrick grieved causing the death of such a warrior, and was relieved that Anita was able to save him.
• Yvette would rot him for punishment and her own entertainment. He started to rot spontaneously as he walked in the daylight.
• He came to warn Anita that the Vampire Council planned to destroy Jean-Claude, and how the voting would go.
• He was a religious man, but suppressed it for lust for Yvette. He finally rebelled against her, and ended by burning the both of them to death as penance.
