OVERALL PERSONALITY:
NEGATIVE TRAITS
Vengeful – Demon doesn’t get mad. He simply gets even, and it’s never pretty.
Hateful – Betrayed and furious, Demon takes it out on the world. At least he’s fair. He despises everyone equally.
Ruthless – He doesn’t care about consequences or right or wrong. If something needs to be done or a point needs to be made, he will do whatever it takes to do it.
Violent – With his temper quick to light and slow to burn out, he doesn’t just lash out verbally. That being said, he’s also quite sadistic.
Temperamental – Demon gets mad very easily and there is usually no appeasing him when he does.
Unforgiving – Yeah if you piss him off in any way, you’re basically screwed. He does take apologies. He won’t say them so why should he accept them?
Arrogant – He thinks very highly of himself and doesn’t really think much of others around him – particularly humans, weres, magi, and most vampires.
POSITIVE TRAITS
Creative – He has quite an imagination and uses it in all sorts of ways. (Keep your distance when he’s bored.)
Loyal – This is a rare thing but has happened. He doesn’t exactly have friends, but he does have allies. Predominantly a selfish creature, his loyalty isn’t without its limits.
Intelligent – Pretty self-explanatory. Idiots don’t live to be 800 right? He's fluent in several different languages including but not limited to Latin, Spanish, Italian, Russian, French, English, and Greek. He can also read a few ancient languages as well.
Strategical – He is a planner through and through. Brought up and disciplined as a soldier, he’s extremely calculating in everything he sets out to do.
Organized – Again, self-explanatory. He likes neat and tidy. Things need to be easy to find and quick to reach.
Outspoken – He speaks his mind and has very strong opinions of certain things.
Serious – He has no real sense of humor and looks at things in very realistic and logical ways. No jokes and smiles come from him.

HISTORY :Demon was born the eldest son of Ioanna and Cyrus. His family was very rich, his father was a soldier in the Macedonian army and made sure his son would follow, which Demon wanted to. When Demon was five his younger brother, Alexios, was born. Unlike Demon, Alexios wasn't as keen on following their father's footsteps, but wasn't really given the choice in the matter. Both boys agreed on one thing though when Ioanna had Katerina five years later.
Katerina meant everything to Demon. He positively loved his sister and was very protective of her. She was devastated the first time he left for battle, terrified he wouldn't come back. From the very beginning he worked under one of the best generals of Byzantine Empire . He idolized the older man, looked up to him and respected him. This and his fierceness in battle sent him flying up the ranks until he found himself as a general ranked so high as to be right under his mentor.
Demon worked with the man and his untimely death hit him hard. He was even more keen on fighting off his enemies by then. He led his army with an honor and courage that few possessed. He met a woman by the name of Artemisia during one of his conquests and fell in love with her. She was a whimsical woman and at first didn’t reciprocate his feelings. He never gave up until he was captured by his enemies in
He was captured by his enemies during the early summer of 1243. There he was tortured for weeks before he was finally left for dead. Artemisia found him that fall, however, and turned him to save his life. That was when he learned she was a vampire. They married shortly after and life was good for Demon. The two travelled throughout Macedonia and Thrace for decades. During that time, Artemisia stumbled upon a child no older than sixteen. The girl's entire family had been slaughtered and she had been beaten. The girl was crying as the soldier carried her off.
Taking pity on the girl, Artemisia rescued her and brought her to Demon who needed little to convince him to help the girl. They learned her name was Korina and that the soldier had killed her family in front of her and then thought he could take her away and do what he wished to her. This angered Demon as he saw no honor in terrorizing a girl and then using her for their own sadistic purposes. They turned her and adopted her as their daughter.
Demon’s happiness was very short lived, though. As the years passed, he began to notice Artemisia’s nastier quirks. It was only after Korina joined them that he began to truly see his mate for what she was. A cold-calculating bitch to say the least, it became clear that she was only interested in Demon for his ruthlessness and ability to strangle a person with just a thought. He adored Korina and Korina adored Artie so Demon tried to sweep it under the rug.
By the nineteenth century, he had enough. After seeing no sign of Korina for weeks, Demon confronted Artemisia. The more she played dumb, the angrier he got before she finally slipped and said she killed the girl. Demon reacted in the only way he knew how and killed her. As Artemisia dropped at his and her head rolled across the floor, Korina came in. She began screaming at him that it was a silly joke and threatening him, but Demon used his power of strangulation to silence her and left.
That century changed him and by 1888, his rage had hit a murderous high. Having been in London for quite a few years, he had gotten a good lay of the city and began a bit of killing spree which earned him the title of Jack the Ripper. During that time it greatly amused him, especially since he ended up turning the whole thing into a game of Cat and Mouse. Eventually he stopped the destruction and moved to the States, where he mellowed out in a small sense. He stopped making it a game and covered his tracks better but he wasn’t even mildly the way he was when he had been human. In the 1900’s he joined Nicolai Vinci’s coven and hasn’t left it.
