Carlos Ángel Castillejo is a self-learnt man, of course not capable of truly reading until he was about 15 years old but soon after falling in love with reading whenever he could spare the time to do so. It is easily to tell that Carlos is an independent man, choosing to do things on his own rather than reaching for any help unless he needs to. He is not an egocentric man, or at least not is anymore as living such a long life can easily diminish any notions of self-preservation. Like most hardened men, Carlos would rather see a man in his accomplishments than bragging unconsciously about them to a group of people. Though he isn't exactly self-sacrificing either, often being apathetic towards others as well as showing indifference to people he deems as less than him.

In the now larger city of Salamanca, Carlos Ángel Castillejo was born on the early morning of August 5, 1892 to two human parents, both who made their living as restaurant owners. The young Carlos was born to five other children, only three of which would survive into childhood which included his beautiful blonde sister Basilia, Lorenzo, and Eduardo Castillejo - all of which were the perfect bond and the type of family any person could dream of having. Carlos was the youngest and thus he was the considered the baby of the family as he can remember. During his upbringing, he could feel nothing but great times and although most have been forgotten through the sands of his lengthy time, they still were nonetheless fond memories of his former human life. 

Growing up with very little education, Carlos was barely literate, being able to read simple signs but never truly learning to read a whole book until later in his life. Such was the education of a low middle class Spanish boy as many if not most knew how to read. With what little school he possessed, the young man did what he could in order to get by and by the age of 15 had finally taught himself to read and fell in love with books, often burying himself in his self studies. Lorenzo however was the most clever of the family and then later in his life chose to pursue an academic career in Germany were he would later become a professor in Psychology while Eduardo chose to take care of the family business. Basilia who would later marry into another small entrepreneurial family in another city. And as for Carlos himself - He chose another path: The United States, the land of opportunity. 

And so in 1911, the young 19-year-old traveled across the Atlantic ocean in order to pursue a chance of and with his experience later garnered, he would later work in the steel industry, often helping build railroads in New York City. It was in these first four years that his life would turn into his favor, being a man of self-sufficiency and with luck and hard work brought him, a more comfortable life. He became married to a young Basque woman and both had two children twins named Javier and Esteban in 1915. 

At 25 years of age, the young Carlos Castillejo enlisted to join the United States Army to fight during World War 1 and in 1917 for the next year he spent in trenches fighting the enemy. It was possibly a good chance of the young man to prove himself worthy of being in the country he took advantage of when he was younger though things like valor and patriotism are easily thrown out of the window amidst a scene of violence between men of foreign backgrounds and the young Carlos then knew what true conflict was. Shortly after the war, the once amiable and cheerful boy he once was had faded away. He became colder and more distant, the war lingered onto him for perhaps too long and hardened the young man deep into his core. It was in the later events in his life that Carlos would later turn his former blue collar life into an underworld criminal one and with his experience with weaponry as a sniper during the first World War, he would learn to hone his new trade for a more unscrupulous one. 

It was in the 1920's during the era of prohibition that he honed his abilities as a hitman for these immoral men and in his time, he would meet men like Al Capone, Arnold Rothstein, Johnny Torrio, and a plethora or many other famous criminals, many of them who had names that did not make it to popularity. In those years to which only his wife was aware of but did not approve had it not been for the streaming amounts of revenue which came from being a criminal. Life for the most part was economic until one unfortunate day during an illegal alcohol trade from New York to Chicago by truck. Only one shipment was needed to head to Chicago and took only three men to take it there, an easy task but little did he realize that it was going to change his life. Out of all the problems a criminal could run into during this mission - It was a flat tire. 

During the duration of time in which was spent changing the tire, Carlos could remember having the eerie feeling of being watched. It was dreadful and cold, as if someone were preying on them. When one man decided to take a look around, all that was heard were his fatal screams in the dark night in the middle of nowhere. Both men were armed and yet felt to helpless and from the corner of his eye, the other man had also vanished in a fraction of a second. It was perhaps the worst feeling Carlos ever had before being snatched himself and felt an antagonizing sharp pain in his neck but before whatever took him could sink its teeth deeper into his bare neck, Carlos fired his .38 revolver and collapsed for the floor with what he thought some sort of beast in the woods. Taking his flashlight, he realized it was a vampire and to his disbelief knew that he was bound to become one himself. 

During the next hour, he would transition. It was a long, torturous pain but in the end, the Spanish man recovered within only a few minutes after his transition. Immediately, Carlos felt rejuvenated, feeling almost super-human as he developed cat-like reflexes and unimaginable speed in the day which he transitioned. When back on the road to Chicago after ridding of the bodies, Carlos spent his time sleeping during the day time and often found the day to be laborious. The sun which he most enjoyed the most in the world as a child, became nothing more than a burdening blind light. 

Upon returning to New York, Carlos developed a passion for doing his job during the night as the daylight seemed to be rather blinding. Everyone in the criminal underworld called him the "Night Stalker" for his renowned abilities as a successful hitman though no one knew of his vampirism, not even his family. To feed his ever growing hunger for blood, Carlos would often steal the blood of those he'd killed and collected the blood into a canteen by which he would drink only when he needed to. In those later years, the hitman would kill over 100 men during his career but later grew to the attention of the United States Government who would later apprehend him in 1929 and was surprisingly aware of his affliction for blood. 

Carlos Castillejo was spared execution but the Spanish hitman would have to work for the United States government in apprehending his fellow colleagues to which he obliged. In the 1930's Carlos Castillejo worked as an informant for the United States Government, by which he was obligated to do. During one unfortunate event at home, the Castillejo couple went for a relaxing drive though without warning, a truck smashed into the driver's side of the vehicle he was in. Carlos's wife, Ofelia, tragically didn't make it. Given that both his sons had already gone to college and had professions of their own, Carlos used this opportunity to as an alibi to escape from hiding his other life as his youthful appearance had already raised far too many questions and with the help of the United States Government, he made a new life for himself. 

It was something that would haunt him for the rest of his life as he could never see his sons again. However, later in 2002, on his deathbed, Carlos visited his son Javier and confessed his life shortly before his death. During World War II, Carlos would later work with several other vampires of a secret battalion in stopping the Nazis in their tracks from conquering all of Europe which the US Government would later pardon him from his former crimes. Shortly after the war, Carlos later pursued a life in academia as his brother Lorenzo did who had just recently died. In his pursuits, he later accumulated a GED in 1947 and would later receive a masters in mathematics from the Univesity of Princeton in which during the 1960s and 1970s would later work as a community college professor. He spent the majority of the 80's exploring the world, the 90's as a taxi driver, the 2000's as a small business owner of a Taxi cab company in New York and later another in the city of Meridian which he has lived in since 1997. Little would he realize that the war between the rebels and the Darkworld would later also fall into his laps. 

During the years which pursued after 2009, the Spanish Vampire received yet another job offer from the underworld though this time for a political movement rather than the mafia. Since he had a knowledgeable background and given the sum of money that came because of it, Carlos was obliged to take the offer though only as part time. It was the usual business of smuggling weaponry and moving people from point a to point b, all of which he has proven to have done inconspicuously through his Taxi Businesses. Although the man had worked with the United States government to keep the world of beasts apart from the human world, he had always true no intentions on letting the mythical world of the beasts of Meridian go on without publicity. As the war begins to brew between the Darkworld and it's Rebellious zealots, Carlos prepares himself for what is about to come in the ensuing unprecedented events which are bound to unfold.
