The Creation
Name: Rorikk Ivan Vaustlav
Nickname: that one tall, bald...scary guy...
Species: Wizard/Slayer/Seer
Gender: 100% Ma-Male.
Age & Birthday: 39 years, February 14th
Appearance:
Rorikk is built like a great, hulking boulder with broad shoulders and a toned, corded musculature. His face, always arrested in an expression of cool nonchalance, seems to be carved from the same unmoving smooth stone as his super buff bod. Rorikk is obviously bald, and has silver eyes with no pupils because he is blind. His impressive stature only adds to his intimidating (and rather squarish) silhouette.
Grim and grey could be terms used to describe his outer appearance, and Rorikk has that cold, square, austere look bequeathed him by his Russian ancestry and years of exposure to the elements. He’s got a continual thoughtful wrinkle that’s perched between his flat brows, giving him the appearance constant contemplation. He is also fair of face and skin because of his mother’s heritage as a Veela.
Attire: Rorikk’s eyes are silver with no pupils because he is blind. He usually wears ragged clothing he makes himself, and always has a pair of glasses and/or goggles to wear to conceal his strange eyes. Rorikk’s clothes are made and worn on the premise of practicality and functionality, as he is always ready for action and for combat. As a pragmatist he is also always in possession of some sort weapon, namely large impressive guns and knives, but also weapons he invented himself, crossbow like things, etc. He also has boots...big, spiky boots.
House (If applicable): nuh uh.
Wand: stocky 14 in ash wood with Dragon heartstring and Veela hair core
Patronus: grizzly bear
Boggart: please, don't insult scary Russian man. He fears nothing.
The Potential
Alignment/Occupation: Interfectum
Personality: Rorikk is, for lack of a better word, aloof. The suffering of other wizards and muggles alike doesn't phase him. THe only reason he joins a side at all is if he's got a personal grudge against someone on the opposing side, which in this case would be the vampires. Rorikk is gruff, tough, and basically a survivor. He can survive in almost any situation...which is why he's still around of course. He is very wise, and has more street smarts than the most savvy streetmonger.
Rorikk uses words sparingly, and only says things that are worthwhile or important to the situation. He’s not one to talk about himself openly, and he doesn’t tolerate anyone who is slovenly, whiny, or a general malcontent. He has a strong sense of personal justice, but otherwise he couldn’t really give a rat’s patoot.
He is also not one to back down from a threat or challenge...and you really don't want to mess with him...he's had many years to perfect his fighting form. Not to mention, he's adept at nearly every fighting style known to man, and he’s cold and calculating. He would not have any qualms over turning you inside out and dipping you in burning oil. He’d rather kill you than look at you, basically. He's also a master of disguise, and an excellent hunter/stalker. In his morality, Rorikk is noble, but only to the point that it suits him.

The Story
History: Rorikk was originally from a rural part of Russia, born to two wizards of the purest magical blood, who remain unnamed in record as well as in his memory. The only thing he can clearly remember is that his mother was a Veela. Despite their prestigious pedigree, Rorikk’s parents were, for unknown reasons, exiled from the wizarding world and sent to live in the deepest, most isolated regions of rural Russia…amongst the Muggles. There they sired and raised six children, Rorikk among the youngest of them.
Though they were banished forever from the world of magic, they still set about them teaching magic to their horde of children. However, when it was discovered that they were actively practicing witchcraft, Rorikk’s parents were stoned as heretics and all of his brothers and sisters were killed. Rorikk managed to escape the dark fate of his family, but he was not altogether unscathed. Rorikk was left blinded by the villagers and had no way to defend himself.
Alone and without a place to go, Rorikk began wandering about as a beggar and eventually ended up in the slums where he became an urchin and a pauper. During this time he began to develop visions, and was able to train himself to use successive visions as a sort of surrogate ‘sight.’ He has trained himself to be able to see brief glimpses into the future so as to see where he is walking, etc, and he can also see further into the future as well as the past.
Despite his infirmity, or perhaps because of it, Rorikk became a rather skilled pickpocket and wandered the world as a rogue for many years. During his many years on the streets he made many friends…and enemies. He’s had affiliations with all manner of life, from Muggles, to Death Eaters, trolls, giants, etc etc. At one point, Rorikk was arrested for robbing an important member of the pre-Voldemort Ministry of Magic and sent to Azkaban. During his stint at the infamous wizarding prison, Rorikk met and fell in love with a woman named Odette Belau, who was a Veela just like his mother had been and was imprisoned for killing Muggles in a scuffle over some stolen jewlery. Rorikk, ever resilient and a trickster, devised a way to bust the two of them out of Azkaban, just as the tides were turning in the favor of the Dark Lord. Rorikk, unaware of this shift to darkness, took Odette and spent several years ‘on the run’ and the two were unofficially wed and Odette became pregnant with his child. But destiny had another plan in mind than the happy future the two wizards had envisioned together.
One night, while traveling in Italy, Rorikk and Odette came across a roving band of newly born vampires, commissioned by Voldemort, who attacked them. Odette was captured and to the best of Rorikk’s knowledge killed by the vampires, for he never saw her again. Ever since then, Rorikk has had an enduring grudge against vampires and though he doesn’t care about the wizarding world and it’s wars, he decided to join the Interfectum…if it meant getting him closer to his vengeance on the blood-suckers.
