Sheldon Hemp
Sobriquet: Hemp
Appearance: Sheldon is a raggedy scamp of a man. Thin to the point of looking emaciated with bad teeth and wire rimmed glasses. Thin whispy hair flies around his head.
Behavior: Sheldon has trouble regulating how fast he talks, with a tendency to cut words to make his own vernacular. Sheldon pushes his glasses up often, then rubbing his nose. Never socially adept, he doesn't know how to deal with others well.
History: Sheldon was a shut in computer nerd. He rarely went out except to pick up particular foods that wouldn't deliver into his neighborhood in Cheapside. Sheldon did well for himself as a hacker until one night as he returned from picking up some parts for his newest computer he was attacked as he went past an alley. A powerful person pulled him off the street and into the darkness. He remembers long hair around his face as something drank his blood, but not much else...other than the smell of a wild sweet perfume he recognized as Passion by O'Claire.
When he came to he was covered in trash, dirt, and his own blood. He was ravenously hungry. Staggering down the alley he found a large dog that he instinctively fell on and drank dry. A horror film buff, he caught on immediately and ran for home as dawn came to London. In the year since he has been able to hunt carefully and buy the occasional pint of blood from the butcher. He is often hungry, and slowly finding a way to be a better vampire than the telly tells him he can be.
Recent Events: Hemp has learned that there are other vampires in the city, and that they won't appreciate him being around. He isn't sure what to do about it...but he is learning fast.
