Claim to Fame

If you are in the right circles, Darcy is known as someone who can acquire certain items: hard to obtain, for the discerning collector. Discretion is the word. He appears to be incredibly wealthy, but has also been rumoured to supply anything (even V) for the right price. Needless to say, he is not too concerned about following laws setup by humans or vampires. People might also know about his love of fine artworks and artists, and his enthusiasm for high cultural pursuits.


Biography

Note
Not much is known about Darcy. Unless someone has shared some experience with him from his past, it is doubtful anyone really knows the full extent of his life's history. The vampire is purposefully secretive; he prefers to hide behind evasion. To those humans and vampires who have business contacts with him, the name "Darcy" is enough to associate with this man. For those vampires with deeper resources and political connections, the name William Pemberly is available. If you would like your character to have background knowledge about Darcy, please page or @mail me and we can figure out how to connect the dots. I'm very open to expanding his past relationships, and to playing with the concept of prior associations.

Character Details

Darcy is best described as an "aloof Romantic," a representative of the Regency era in the Britain of his youth. He has the ability to be charming, polite, dapper, cultivated, and dignified; but also willing to do what it takes to survive. A spendthrift, he lives well beyond his means and is hopelessly mired in debts, overdue bills, and promisory notes. He adores beauty and finery, and will spare no expense to surround himself with elegant items or baubles. This is why he can often be found wearing fine clothes and baubles without a penny in his pocket. While politic and gracious, Darcy can also appear arrogant and proud; even haughty and cold. Aristocratic sentiments run deep within him, and his politics lean toward favouring the conservative and the privileged. No matter what his present material circumstances, Darcy considers himself a member of the upper-echelon. A creature that enjoys amusement, his temperament can occassionally lead him to explore sadistic and ruthless desires.
