Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die.

(your details)
so hello there the name's WOLF and i have been rocking it on this earth for TWENTY FOUR .
i have been running with the vampires for SIX YEARS you might also
know me as NONE.
and this is one of my master pieces:
The first thing he noticed is the place was like the other clubs, music that made your whole body vibrate with its beat and the neon lights that hurt the eyes and made anyone standing close to them a different shade of colour.
He moved through the crowd like a snake, his hands touched several girls as he slipped between bodies and yet they hardly noticed him.
“Questo luogo come alcuni sexy femmine, vorrei venire qui più spesso.” [This place as some sexy bitches, I should come here more often. ]He said as he looked one girl over more then the rest, his interest peeked by her slender curves, but he continued to move through the crowds not stopping.
He went straight to the bar and placed his hands flat on the bar surface, waiting for the busy bartender to serve him.
He turned to look around the place, the bodies in here would make finding a meal easy, but the choices would be hard, he didn’t know if he was in the mood for a blond, redhead or raven-haired beauties. He was not one for girls with brown hair, they seemed too plain for his liking, and he had to remind himself that vampires weren’t suppose to be picky about the package the blood came in.
Still they had to be worth his effort, he grinned as he thought of the quote from a TV ad, you are what you eat. Still what ever they looked like, it couldn’t hurt to sample some of the flavours in here since this was his first visit to this bar.
Dominic liked the chase sometimes more then the actual prize, it had been far to long since he hunted a human who realized they were about to die. There was something refreshing about the increased pounding of a human’s heart beat, the way they sucked air into their lungs and blew it out again with a rush of fear, still for this night he would settle on snacking. He would wait for the rain to come to hunt for real, that way people weren’t out on the street to be come a distraction or a savour for his meal.

personality:
Dominic is for the most part a laid back sort of guy, people seem to relax around him and this is a advantage for a vampire like him. Trust is something that humans seem to hand out in spades and once you get past their trust issues, humans tend to just fall into place when he needs one. As nice as he can be he has little patience for those he deems unworthy of his presence, which is just about everyone at times. He favours the ladies, sweet talking them and charming them to let down their normal guards and he enjoys their bodies and at times their mind.
Stupid women should be comforted and used to be discarded at will, while the ones with the brains he is rather fond of keeping around. Education is free and although to look at him one would think he was thick in head as well as body, but this is a deceit, he is a learned man who enjoys reading.
He is in no way introverted, he is outgoing, always has something to say and even he enjoys the moments of peace and quiet, in between the bloodier moments.
English is not his native tongue and the ladies like to hear him speak Italian, which he does when he is charming them or just muttering to himself. He rarely thinks of this city as his home, for Florence and the Apennines are his true home.
He enjoys strolling through the cemeteries of this city; the dead are a peaceful companion and one he seeks out often. What the world cannot hold for him he can usually find in the cemetery where he and the dead are equals. He likes to play the guitar and is a great fan of music, his tastes range from opera to punk music. He spends a great amount of time around music and while he rides his motorcycle around the city, he likes to sing but he likes to keep that part of himself hidden.
He is not afraid of fighting or defending those of his race, he doesn’t look like a street kid for nothing, it’s a look that has been well earned, mainly he would be considered a dirty fighter, there are no rules in his book. Dominic is loyal to the vampires and will stand with his race no matter what is going on. He likes to work on motorbikes and at times he is not above stealing them if they are worth the risk.

[/font][/SIZE](the history)[/center]
mother: Grazia
father: Adalberto
siblings: Agostino,Giovani,Larenz,Roberto,Salvatore
other family: unknown
the history:
If the devil made the world while god was sleeping then Dominic was created in that darkness, he was one of six boys born to his parents, an eternal young couple that lived in the darkness with their boys.
Dominic stepped outside in the sunshine only once as a child, it was enough to imprint such pain that it was never going to happen again as blistered burns on his skin made him want to roll in pain for days.
He never realized him or his brothers were different from the other children in the small country town at the base of the Apennines Mountains where his family owned a small vineyard and grew grapes.
Once when he and his older brother Agostino traveled into the city of Florence did Dominic learn the great difference between his family and seemingly the rest of the world.
Although he was in his early thirties his home life was restricted, coming to this city he tasted for the first time a life of freedom. Freedom beyond his home, his brothers and the animal blood they fed upon, here his brother showed him what human blood tasted like, such a sweetness that Dominic almost panted after he had tasted it.
The world changed for him, even if his brothers chose to remain on the family farm where they were protected from the outside world that would surely hunt them down for what they were. Dominic could not go back to the world so isolated, the city life had imprinted upon his soul and he wanted it all, everything he could get like a caged animal let lose he found freedom.
Perhaps that is a good way to explain the early years for Dominic, a caged animal let loose on the world, or just Florence. He ran wild there, he became the fear in the darkness, where people in that city locked their doors and windows as more and more victims turned up after being ravished by ‘wild animals’. He was to blame for so many canines being killed in that city in the span of five years, he was the fear in the eyes of mothers who let their children out after dark.
Dominic wasn’t a monster although there was times he was worst then one, it took him years to finally gain a hold of his darkness, the anger and blood lust that drove him blindly so long. One day he just changed who he was, began to actually live his life instead of race through the nights feeding on anything alive and moving in the darkness.
He became a grown up if such a thing was possible for a vampire who’s age barely mattered, where time meant so little to his kind.
He settled down and began to work as a mechanic in a small garage, there he focused all his energy on fixing cars and motorcycles, he found he could channel his darker side into working and building machines that gave him a sense of pride his parents had once instilled so deeply into him.
It was only after he had settled into life did he look beyond the borders of Italy to the America’s, he came across the ocean on a ship, perhaps not the wises choices of transpiration for a vampire. Alone on a ship filled with humans for weeks, he could not help falling into his old ways slightly and not all the passengers that boarded the ship made it to shore.
He traveled around the states for several years till he finally heard about Middland a place where vampires were accepted, a place where he could step out of the darkness and into the shadows sort of speaks.
He moved there with the intention of making himself a good life, learning to live again among those of his own race, and apparently other races as well. Having high hopes that Dominic will find a place to fit in and a place to stand out.
