Despite his calm demeanor, he possesses an overwhelming strength in battle. His code of 'dandyism" is key to taking anything in stride. A descendent of vampiric lineage, he finds human society trivial at times. However, he admires humans' tumultuous emotions, finding them both coveting and charming. He created the Assassin's Guild but has since retired, indulging in instead with genuine combat and haikus. After meeting his immortal wife, Sharon, who is immune to aging and bloodsucking, he enjoys an untroubled life in retirement, occasionally venturing out for some people-watching.
