Redwater - Pilot Episode (Fantasy, Horror)
thatnickred for Lockley
A middle-aged Vampire Hunter. Once fueled by revenge, but slowly losing his conviction. Having accepted that he's probably lost them forever. He has a scoundrel's swagger, and dry wit, his coping mechanisms of choice outside of taverns and brothels.
Voice: Gruff and haggard, slight accent. Heroic swagger. Not someone who can easily be mistaken as a royal, or even one of their guards.
"Time laddie. Time is the Vampire's chief weapon, and they spent twenty years on the grindstone, waiting for our order to die out, taking new hosts in parliament. There's two things I hate most in this world lad, Vampires and Royals. Now the lord has cursed me with Royal Vampires and a damned tender-footed boy for aid ... (scoffs)"
"Run boy!" [smashes a bottle against a Vampire] "Holy water burns the wicked!" [draws a stake from his belt] "And a wooden stake through the
heart ends them!" (cries out)
"There's nothing more these creatures can take from me girl. But I might have something to give yet. I promise, if the worst should come ... you'll never become one of them."
