General
Alias: The Prince(ss) of shadows
Name: Mirian Drakonas, aka Drakonas Mi'ir
Gender: Born Male, now Female
Orientation: Prefers women over men
Physical Age: 21
Real Age: 397
Species: Vampire
Sire: Isabel Tranisis. A circus performer and Mirians first true love
Wealth: Very little personal wealth. He has his house, and whatever few possessions he chooses to have
Job: Mirian is an illusionist with the carnival of Nightmares.
Specialties
Mental:
Mirian has few mental abilities that are notable. He is horrible at reading minds, and even worse at trying to remain focused. He does however have the unique ability to distance himself from anyone or anything that may cause him heartbreak. A prime example would be, if someone he likes were being tortured or killed, he could turn off his emotions and walk away, however just because he can does not mean he always does. Another notable mental strength he does have is the ability to read and influence people. This is something he often does with his shows, making people generally afraid or confused. He achieves this through using the right tones, the right gestures, and a little bit of a vampires pheromone control. In rare instances he has worked small crowds into complete panic and disorder.
Physical:
Mirian has most of the normal vampire abilities. His senses are super honed allowing him to see great distances or in complete blackness. To hear a dying heart beat a block away, to smell blood from great distances, and even to feel the very vibrations that move through the ground. Like most vampires he has also inherited a superhuman speed, No human can out run, and in truth a lot of vampires would have difficulty as well. His level of strength is only slightly superhuman, and is not a focus of his study or training.
Aside from the vampire related strengths Mirian posses a few that he has had to study very hard to gain. One being a weapon proficiency second to none, so he claims. Originally Mirian fought with a black katana, but due to an altercation with another vampire, which prompted the sex change, he has had to learn and adapt to a new fighting style. Now instead of a single smooth and efficient sword, he fights with a large and cumbersome black scythe. This was a weapon he already had some skill in using, but has now refined his techniques so that its awkward shape and size have no meaning. Few could ever wield a weapon like this in the way he does.
Powers:
Mirian posses one unique power that has come with hundreds of years of practice, A mastery of Illusions. What started out as simple card tricks and and feats performed with smoke and mirrors has evolved into an art form that Mirian uses to leave spectators in awe. He has spent a great deal of time and effort in mastering each technique, often training for 20 hours a day until the trick was mastered.
Some of the more prominent tricks used outside of his act, out in the real world are summonings and disappearances. Primarily it seems that He never actually carries a weapon with him, but if crossed he is able to pull a large black scythe from inside his cloack, almost out of thin air. The mechanism behind this trick is simple displacement, or at least thats what he says if someone asks where it came from.
The other and probably most memorable trick is his ability to simply vanish, now unlike others who try to vanish instantly Mirian requires that sight be broken from everyone. Meaning if someone is actually able to see him he cant disappear. Usually when threatened or looking for an edge in a fight Mirian will draw his cloak forward and use it to shroud himself from another, then as if he was never there the cloak would fall to the ground leaving no trace of him. This one is incredibly draining on his mental and physical stamina and is usually only used once or twice a night if at all.
One other act of illusion that Mirian is able to perform is his ability to change his appearance. Not in the extremes of looking like someone else, but to the point of changing his outfit almost instantly. Now similar to other tricks this does require him to break sight with everyone in order to work. This one has found its way into his day to day life, but only in recent years. If he were to commit a crime and the police, or hunters for that matter, were looking for a female suspect wearing a certain outfit, provided no one could see him, he could change his clothes in a snap.
Aside from those major tricks he is often found playing with slightly less impressive tricks. Entertaining passersby with feats such as pulling rabbits from hats, or guessing cards. And when performing Mirian often performances tricks such as levitating objects or people, making things disappear, or change, and even sawing individuals in half. But he has found no use for these other feats in his day to day affairs, so as such they often stay simply for his show.
Hobbies:
The Princess of shadows has few hobbies that bring him as much joy as he gets when he performs. Be it on the street for tourists or passersby, or be it in a giant Colosseum for thousands to watch, performing remains and always will be his one true passion.
Weakness
Mental:
Mentaly Mirian has few weaknesses, he considers himself to be rock solid, but despite that there are a few things that can turn his rock hard demeanor into nothing. The single biggest being an ever growing fear of his old mistress Isabel Tranisis. She had recently sent a vampire to kill him, and had nearly succeeded in her attempt at his life. This is another reason why he had a sex change, she was looking for a man, not a woman.
running Water is another big fear of Mirians. Not to the extent that a glass of water give him fits, but to the point where he will not step foot in any form of running water, be it a creek that a child could cross, or a raging river. This is one fear that has him puzzled, he is not afraid of drowning, and can easily swim in a pool or quiete lake. But anything with a noticable current will stop him in his tracks.
Physical:
Like all vampires sunlight will kill him, and like some of his vampire counter parts holy relics and silver will hurt him. But he does have a few other physical weaknesses that could result in his downfall. Primarily his lack of strength, Mirian has a very limited level of strength, but when provoked will act as though he were as strong, if not stronger than his opponent. Another much larger physical fault is his dependance on blood, With Mirian it goes well beyond the normal blood hunger that all vampires have, to the point of being a crippling addiction. He has to feed 4 or 5 times a night just to keep going, and more so if he exerts himself.
Other:
Mirian is incredibly vein, especialy now that he has had his sex change. He sees himself as a perfect image of feminity and beauty, and most individuals around him see it too. But he puts an incredible amount of work into it, should anything in his look not be right he will become incredibly short tempered.
Physical Appearance
Curent appearance
Hair:
Mirian has long black hair that extends about halfway down his back. Though he has been known from time to time to change the color, black is usually his preferred choice. He will usually wear it up in a bun, and only in the most hurried of situations will he not do anything with it..
Eyes:
His eye color is Dependant on one thing, what contact lenses he puts in, though naturally he has white blue eyes.

Weight:
Mirian used to have a weight of 190 but has now lost some of that and only weighs in at 165.
Body Type:
Very few male bodies could compare to Mi'ir's, thin, athletic and curvy build. The build itself is more feminine, drawing attention towards his hip or chest area, giving him an almost hour glass figure.
Clothing:
Mirian prefers tighter form fighting clothing, as he has worked very hard to achieve the body he has, and wants to show it off. Shirts are often strapless, or spaghetti strap, and as a pose to pants he prefers skirts, usually knee length but does have a few that are longer. The color of choice for Mirian's clothing is of course black and red, but he has been known to wear some pinks and purples as well. There are also many accessories to go with his outfits, fishnet stockings are a must, as well as many plastic colored bracelets(sex bracelets) again often red and black, but still having a few pink and purple ones. Still as always a red and black cross hangs around his neck at all times, it was a gift from his first lover and sire. When performing Mirian wears a black strapless corset, with red trim and lace. A short black skirt, and fishnet stockings, accompanied by knee high boots will often accompany this but Black pants have been substituted before.
Other:

Personality
Likes:
Death, Anarchy, Chaos, Destruction, and anything that maims kills or destroys. Mirian is a much darker who revels in destruction, if it where to rain the blood of the innocent he would be in ecstasy. Loud and harsh music such as death or heavy metal excites him. He also enjoys confusing people, Be it either in his performances or just going up to random strangers and talking to them until they dont know which way is up. Mirians only true passion however lies with his illusions, and performing them to the cheers of a crowd.
Dislikes:
Mirian is a specist if such a thing existed, he dislikes humans and hates Lycans. Humans are viewed as cattle, and Lycans are viewed as retard vampire wannabes. He also dislikes anyone who tries to kiss his ass, flattery will get people nowhere, unless of course they are a vampire, in which case it will get them everywhere. Slow quiet nights are aslo disliked, especialy when there can be so much fun achieved just by killing a few innocents. when it comes to people he has a strong dislike for males, though in rare circumstances it he has looked past that.
Attitude:
Mirian has an immortality complex, live fast and hard or dont bother at all. His actions are often rash with no planning or thought at all, and his mannerisms are always an instant responce to a situation. This has gotten him into alot of problems, as peoplel are often easily offended by him. He also has a superiority complex, in his opinion vampires are the top of the food chain no exceptions, nothing else comes close, and humans are mere cattle for his own amusement.
In Tight Situations:
Part Of Mirians mental strength is his ability to disassociate from anything, even himself. In tight situations if his own life is threatened he is able to forget about himself and act as if he were an impartial observer. He can see the fight as if from someone else's eyes and act accordingly. This ofteb gives him a bigger picture kind of attitude, allowing for one sacrifice if it will achieve the over all goals.
Schedule:
Mirian has no schedule at all, in fact every night that he iswakes up is a night to do something different, nothing is ever the same or repetitive for him.
History
Birth:
Mirian remembers nothing before his life as a vampire, except for the fact that he was born in aristocracy. So now he sees the day he was turned as the day of his birth, the day he began to exist. The day was April 13th, in 1610, and the place was London, it was a fresh era many new inventions and ideas where springing forward to make life easy, and all was good in the land. On this night he had gone to see the love of his life, who happened to be a vampiress, and he took his first step into existence with her.
Childhood:
His childhood, the early years of his immortal life, where easy enough, he traveled with Pirellie's Circus, and started to make a name for himself. He was a stage illusionist and would draw huge crowds with his feats of impossible deeds. At the time he used nothing more than smoke and mirrors, to make people believe they were seeing things that could never be. For the longest time he was happy, he had everything anyone could ever want, the love of a captivating woman, the ability to travel abroad and see the world, and also the ability to watch history be made, and see the world evolve.
And everything was perfect till his love became bored and took on a new lover. At this point Mirian changed his life, He left Pirellie,s and started training himself in the art of true illusion. He spent nearly 200 years perfecting his craft, and mastering his own abilities.
Transformation:
He was turned on april 13, 1610 when he went to visit a traveling circus. He had fallen in love with one of the acrobat, a mysterious young woman who was as fast and agile as she was seductive. In fact Mi'ir had gone to every show that they did in his town. On the last night of they're show he snuck into her tent and waited for her. after a few hours she came into the tent. She said she knew he was there and told him she had a surprise for him...that night she made him immortal.
Since that night he has gone through many different attitude changes in regards to being a vampire. For the longest time he hated Isabel for cursing him with eternal life, to walk endlessly through time time without being able to die, but in recent years he has come accept that humans are nothing more than wisps of smoke in the wind, and instead of having to die like the rest he shall remain untouched by time and death.
Prey:
Man, woman and child, Lycan and human alike, no one is safe from his hunger. He sees everything except for vampires to be lesser creatures here to entertain and feed him.
Relationships:
Mirian has not had any important relationships, spare one, his first love Isabel Tranisis. She was an acrobat with a traveling circus, she was also a vampire and his sire. For nearly a century they were lovers, but that changed when Isabel became bored and took on another lover. Since then he has found no partner in life or death, but still he holds out hope for the chance to one day find a lover.
Other:
Mirian has gone through two major transformations in this life. One being turned from a human into a vampire, and the other, being turned from a man into a woman. For nearly 400 years Mirian lived his life happily as a man, but recently he became unhappy with his existence, he had begun to feel awkward and unsure about who he was. His actions and mannerisms became incredibly feminine, but despite that he retained an attraction to women. This was more than a little confusing as in his time and era no one had even considered anything so drastic as changing ones sex. In fact this was not even his first choice of options, originaly he tried to put on a macho male persona, but that failed him horribly. It was when he was planning an attempt on his life that it occured to him he had one more choice. It was only in this day and age that something like this was possible and it was worth a try, if it dident work he could always have taken a walk in the early morning sunlight, but thankfully for him he has never been happier than he is now.
Family: Mirians family, his true living family, died many years ago. For what reasons he is not sure, as he never went back to see them after he became a vampire. His sire, who he considers to be his only true family, is alive and well somewhere, but he does not know where.
