Name: Atlas (Corporal to his WWI buddies)
Age: Looks 21(148 years, but who's counting?)
Mood Music I Guess
Gender: Male
Species:Vampire
Appearance: About 6'0", with messy blonde hair and muddy red eyes. Pale skin, Caucasian, and longer nails. Average facial features, excluding a small scar below his right eye that causes pain. Doesn't care to hide his fangs, as his hygiene is one of his few redeeming traits. Easily blends into crowds. Wears some tattered Victorian clothes to keep the memory of his past life behind(maroon sports jacket, white shirt, green dress pants, loafers). Whenever he goes out, he wears cracked sunglasses to disguise his red eyes.
Background: Was transformed into a vampire in the year 1889. A college student, working at Oxford University, London, he had a promising life ahead of him. His name at birth was Adam, and he lived a happy life. Coming from a fairly wealthy family at the very end of the Industrial Revolution, Adam imagined his life as going smoothly, figuring he would create a medicine company with his expertise, and grow even more wealthy. He had no idea of the horrors he would witness
One late afternoon, Adam was walking in the 'shady' part of town when he came across a caravan advertising rare ingredients at low prices. Figuring this could help him with studies, he stumbled into the smoky room. An old man sat at the end, looking through some papers. He approached the old man, and inquired about the ingredients. The old man went on and on about his stock, but Adam immediately dismissed almost each and every one as a fraudulent version of some existing chemical. After inquiring about anything worthwhile, the old man pulled out a small wooden chest with a lock on it. After fumbling around to open it, a stench filled the room. 3 hunks of rock sat in the chest, which Adam would later identify as brimstone, meteorite, and solid hellfire. He immediately purchased all 3, and ran back into the lab to begin work on his new pet project.
After a few days of fiddling with the stones, Adam unwittingly created a new gas that not even he knew about: one that attracted paranormal beings. He had been working late, and a small lab fire, mixing with the brimstone, obsidian, and chlorine Adam had been working with, created a smell extremely attractive to beings such as vampires and demons. It was no surprise Adam was cornered by a vampire the very next evening. Working late yet again, Adam had spilled blood while cleaning some equipment. This sealed his fate, and as he stumbled home he was attacked by a member of the undead. Adam was well read, and so knew of these creatures. He ran into the countryside, feeding on the occasional sheep. He lived in fear of society, as the urges to feast on human flesh grew.
33 years after he was turned, World War One started. He had been lurking around a small village when the news hit, and figured he could use it as an opportunity to get some food. He hid under tarps, hiding under cars until he arrived at the training camp, taking the place of a recruit looking quite similar to him: one Atlas Johnson. Somehow hiding his terrible secret, he made it to the trenches. The horrors of the gas warfare, along with the monstrous Panzer units, scared Atlas for life. He fought until the war ended, hiding in rural Siberia until the second World War broke out, taking the distracted U.S.S.R as an opportunity to escape.
The moniker Atlas stuck, and so he jumped from country to country, war to war until eventually settling in Brooklyn. He began researching the occult once again, and ran into the mysterious Seph Kane. Due to Atlas' experience, and knowledge in alchemy, he was recruited. Atlas chose Belfast due to isolation, and the abundance of wild game to feed off of.
Current Life: Due to sunlight aversion, set up in a rickety mine filled with bones and gold, both of which are useful for alchemy. Has a lab set up there for testing. He only goes out at night to drink at whatever local bar is open, usually keeping to himself in a corner. Visits local penitentiary on nights when he needs to feed. Has been in Belfast for two weeks and already loves the weather.
Personality: After all these years has become very apathetic. Due to the horrors witnessed during war has a distaste for blood, which causes some turmoil when it comes time to feed. No longer believes in any higher power, and just wishes for the sweet release of death that will never come naturally. Has become an introvert due to aversion to sunlight. Spiteful of the living, but also just hates people. Raging alcoholic.
Schools of Study: Alchemy, Botany
Specialization: When it comes to alchemy, he is very knowledgeable in poison brewing and the science behind 'holy water', but has failed at that aspect. Wishes to find a cure to vampirism
Spells: Ice Burst: The only spell Atlas bothered to learn, it allows him to freeze objects, create hunks of ice, and lower body temperature, the last of which was never a problem for a vampire. He is very used to it by now, though using it too often will tire him out, leaving him incapacitated. This makes him wish to avoid using said spell, out of paranoia.
Abilities: Carbon Vision -Knows the chemical makeup of most plants and animals.
Shaken, Not Stirred -Can make 'quick fix' potions such as healing and poison.
Undead and Hating It -Superhuman strength,Able to mesmerize people for short periods of time, Can turn into a bat
Been There Done That -Extremely knowledgable when it comes to history
Flower Power -Has some botany skills to help him grow ingredients, and can identify many plants.
Close Minded -Takes pride in his brewing skills, but lacks knowledge in many other subjects.
Been Around the Block -Due to living for 148 years, can fluently speak English, Italian, French, and Soviet-era Russian
Weaknesses: Sunlight, Jesus and Co., Holy things in general, a minor distaste for garlic, has to be invited indoors
Equipment: -Poison Bottle: Filled with a nightshade-venom mix that he has been working towards perfecting for centuries
-Erlenmeyer Flask(4): Used to make potions
-Bag of Ingredients: Small ingredients used in Alchemy
-Raven:Pet
-Gas Mask: A gag item
-Heavy Gloves: Used when handling acidic/destructive materials. Prevents the need for restoration, which takes up energy.
Other: Pretty good at the mandolin and bartending.

I'm going to list all seven knives here. 6 are from W&R, and one is the heirloom
Tubuel: This blade emits a bright light that can be seen by all within a certain radius
Raguel: This blade ignites when the proper incantations are spoken
Simiel: This blade emits a loud noise when the proper incantations are spoken
Inias: This blade attracts insects from within a small area.
Saboac: This blade is constantly covered in poison
Tubuas: This blade acts as an opposite to Uriel, and sucks in light, leaving a void of darkness around it
Uriel: This blade ran in the family, and thus only responds to those of their descent. It is seemingly linked via magic, or Atlas would be unable to use it due to the vampire cells. Operates as a boomerang.
When Used In Unision:
Tubuel+Tubuas: Creates a radar of nearby living things
Raguel+Saboac: Flame grows twice as strong
Inias+Simiel: Attracts insects from a larger area than Tubuel alone
Tubuel: This blade emits a bright light that can be seen by all within a certain radius
