Most often Kind and gentle when angered he is one of the most dangerous opponents or enemies you could ever fear to have.
Background:
The past of the Ancient one is clouded in mystery and buried in the sands of time but what is known is that he is the oldest and possibly first vampire in existence. He has lived and explored the world all his immortal life though little is known before the mid 1980s.
Having slept for a long period of time the Ancient One awoke to a world quite unfamiliar to him in the mid. No longer were the empires he once knew in existence, No longer was the world ruled by superstition and magic… No it was now a world of science and light…. Or so it seemed.
His race, a race he saw come into existence had grown and multiplied. Hundreds even thousands of night walkers strode the streets of all lands… a thing never dreamed of in his time when so few were made and even fewer survived there first nights.
Towers of Glass and iron had long ago replaced the huts of mud and palaces of marble he once called home. He now found his existence in a world new to his eyes and senses and a world he would have to amerce himself in if he even had a hope of survival. So it was that for 500 years after his awakening The Ancient one did all he could to learn about the world he now lived and the history he had missed in his long sleep. After painstaking research, gathering of wealth, monetary power and the decimation of any remaining enemies from his time, The Ancient One decided to take on the name Lucius Lacroix so as to better fit in to modern day society.
For some time he analyzed the growing decay in both human and vampire society, a few scattered clans here and covens there throughout the world culminating in a loose government or ruling body while the majority of blood drinkers consisted of rogues, vagabonds and all around outlaws. A sorry state indeed for his eyes to behold and none seemingly cared, from what he saw, for the past and continuing history of the world… None cared about the lessons learned, the battles fought and paths being taken at the time.
This situation to him was completely unthinkable, A world of Light and Darkness and both in anarchy. He felt it necessary to change the tide of events to come. So it was with this decision that he began to bring to him many like minded elders and young ones of his kind to form a new order, The Draconis Clan, dedicated to the learning, watching and preservation of history.
He taught his pupils much of what he knew and only kept from them the secrets of his origins and whatever he felt was better left in the sands of time. The Draconis clan flourished through the hundreds of years before the silent wars, Indeed it was one of the first to sign peace treaties with the Werewolf tribes of which there kind had warred against since even he could remember. Wealth, Power, Respect, Fear and above all knowledge was the staples of the family Lacroix had created and it is these things he strived to preserve even when it all fell apart.
The Silent Wars, a war against hunters known as the Inquisition backed by the Vatican, were hard on his clan as it was on all others across the globe. One after another he saw his friends… his family… fall to the hunters until finally in a surprise attack on his catacomb stronghold in France the Draconis clan was wiped from the face of the earth.
His home destroyed, his friend’s dead, his histories burnt… Lucius Lacroix is now alone in the world once more and searches for the remnants of his dieing race in the hopes of once again bringing order to the chaos.
In recent years he has come into contact with Stalina, a young (in comparison to himself) vampire elder he had met before his sleep ages ago in Venice, Italy during the Renaissance. It was here that he had brought the young woman under his wing when she was still overwhelmed with the prospect of leading one of the most influential covens in the world, The White Rose. He spent much time with her and tutored her further in the ways of being an effective leader leading her on the path towards peace, unity and equality among all species. He came to love the girl like a daughter and so adopted her in an ancient vampiric ceremony to make her his daughter and ward. Now in this modern age he has come to her to live and lend assistance in the dark times that are to come. His hope is that his knowledge and understanding of the world and its workings will help guide her and effectively guide there people back into an age of light.
