• The Supernatural (very spooky)
  
• Being spooked
• Storms
  
• Bright Lights
• Being teased on his appearance (which he can't see for himself since he has no reflection anymore)
• Brutish behaviour
• Violation of Personal Space (a little friendly contact is... alright... but lets not push it)
  

• Vampire Strength - He's gotten quite a bit stronger than he was as a human, and often forgets his newfound strength. Being a fairy new vampire though, his abilities haven't developed much, so he's still pretty much a weakling compared to any matured vampire.
• Hypnotic Eyes - His swirling red eyes should be able to give him the power of suggestion over others, however, he has a very low success rate. If anything he's more likely to sway someone into an action contrary to his wishes.
• Shifting into a Bat

• Anemic - Gets light-headed and dizzy easily, especially when he's low on blood.
• Nosebleed Prone - Little ones come and go, while others can be triggered by more intense emotional stimulation
• Typical Vampire Weaknesses - Holy Items, Garlic, Silver, Sunlight/Bright Lights. They have various adverse effects on him.
  

• Sheltered/Spoiled - His upbringing has him used to getting what he wants, and sheltered him from many of the realities of this world (and the next). He'll be a little demanding and surprised when things don't go as smoothly without his parents providing for him. It's not that he's trying to be rude, so much as it being a habit. Aside from the incident which turned him into a vampire, most people he's interacted with day to day have been fairly well-mannered. Anything outside this will be a bit of a shock to him!
• Sensitive - He's quick to get defensive, offended, and riled up. He'll try to deny or cover up his fears and feelings if he doesn't want you to know, even if it's obvious. He tries to keep a well-mannered persona, but a little prodding is more than enough to shake him up. Can be kind of a brat, really.
• Cowardly - Within fair reason! Raised most of his life as a human, Crepuscule Estate is Flynn's first exposure to the supernatural first-hand (aside from his turning). Though he liked the supernatural in books, being thrown into the middle of all of this is actually very scary for him! He's jumpy, squeamish, and very insecure with his new environment. He's become much more cautious and mistrusting as well since being attacked. He's had a taste of what supernatural creatures are capable of first-hand, and did not enjoy it!
• Immaculate - He likes to keep himself clean, orderly, and well dressed. Spick and span. Somewhat of a germ-o-phobe and clean-freak from his parents medical profession and his own squeamishness towards blood, he'll try his best to keep sterile, Additionally, especially since he can't see his reflection anymore, he'll try his best to dress to impress! He can't see his features anymore, but at least he can see which clothes he's picking out...
• Well-Mannered? - His proper upbringing and schooling has raised him to stay well behaved for the most part, or at least to try to keep up this appearance in front of others.
• Compassionate - He's a real SUCKER for those who are suffering or in need. He'll be compelled to help them if he can. NOTE: he can still be naive, but he'll be much more cautious when dealing with the supernatural, especially if they've given him specific cause to be wary.
• Keener for Praise - A hard worker when there's prestige or nice words on the line. Flynn likes to impress and is easily swayed by praise.

Flynn was born human, and raised in a fairly cushy lifestyle. His parents were both medical doctors, both leading very busy work-lives but making a very good living. With his parents being doctors, Flynn was raised to keep clean be very compassionate to those in need, though he didn't take after them entirely... From early on he was squeamish, finding the sight of blood to be something gross. He'd like to help people, but let's keep it nice and sterile, right? Growing up with an unfortunate combination of being anemic and prone to nose bleeds (ew), Flynn often felt weak. He was well taken care of, and getting what he wanted wasn't difficult since his family could easily afford it. Flynn's parent had him educated at a private school, giving him a formal education in a strict environment. It might have been a bit of a stressful educational environment, but he enjoyed taking to reading and writing involved and the praise he'd get at the end of the day from his parents and teachers for a job well done. With this being a private institution, the children were kept well in line, so unruly students and bullying wasn't a frequent occurrence.

Spending a lot of time in the library, Flynn took to spending his reading time outside of studying to books on fantasy, adventure, and the supernatural. One day after school Flynn wound up staying late to help out a new librarian who had no idea what they were doing. Honestly he wondered how they'd even landed the job, but he couldn't just leave them floundering there... It was getting dark by the time he was headed home, and that's when he saw it: a strange rickety old building that he could've sworn hadn't been there before. Maybe he'd taken a wrong turn somewhere. Was it a church? Some kind of castle? He was dying to go check it out from the inside, but the way the doors seemed to be opening on their own as he looked at them was unsettling to say the least.

The booming sound of thunder and a sudden downpour was all it took to get the boy running for cover inside. Spooked and soggy, he began exploring the building in search of a light switch or maybe some company to get through the storm. Lady luck would not be with him that night, as he'd find the latter. Wailing from a room down the hall drew his attention, leading him to believe someone in there might be just as scared as he was with the storm. Peering into the room, he'd see the silhouette of a figure weakly calling out in need. What? What was it they needed? Approaching with little hesitation, Flynn froze in his place when a flash of lightning would illuminate a pair of swirling red eyes. Drawn in and unable to move after meeting the figure's hypnotic gaze, it was all too soon before they were upon him, sinking pointed fangs into his neck and draining him. The blood of the innocent did taste sweetest after all...

Much to his surprise, Flynn actually woke up the next day. He could feel the dried blood from his neck wound and on...his face? Whatever happened the night prior was a nightmare, and he was sure he'd have died, but had his nose bled too on top of everything? Why did it feel like it was around his mouth too.. ugh... Unsteadily rising from the floor, he walked over to check his reflection in the vanity only to find that he had none.

As you can imagine, the following weeks were a period of serious unrest and change for Flynn. He was repulsed by his need to feed on blood to survive, unwilling to feed off the living as he fears he must have done when he'd first turned. Flynn was at least lucky enough to have parents in a profession where they could access blood transfusion packs for him to sustain himself on, but that just barely smoothed out one bump in the road. Aside from hating having to take valuable blood meant for their patients, his parents were grief-stricken at what had become of their son. Even fearful of his new form. Flynn's hair had turned white, eyes red, and sharp pointed fangs replaced his canine teeth. He had to be taken out of school to hide his new form, and there was a lot of tension between him and his family. None of them knew how to cope with the situation. Who could they even contact for help?

A mysterious invitation comes in the mail for the recently turned vampire. He read it over, skeptical of being able to attend another school in his state. Before he knew it though, he'd been teleported to a strange world! Just how will he manage in a school filled with other supernatural beings?

_{(TL;DR BACKGROUND: Cushy, sheltered human upbringing. One day he was going home late from school and took cover from a storm in a mysterious building where he was attacked by a vampire. A few weeks have passed of him trying to adjust, when he recieves the invite which whisks him away to CE)}
