Personality:
Gwendel’s a proud man and he’s also highly social. He walks around the whole Academy campus as if he owns it and speaks his mind to whoever he wants. He seems to have nothing to fear at all and so he might seem too straight-forward at times. He’s also a leader; there aren’t many that can withstand his charisma and leadership skills.

However, when alone, he is slightly different. He sheds his proud side and just sits there contemplating calmly about life or reading. He rarely gets alone time so he savors it very much. And most of the time when alone, he is usually locked in his own room and when he is in his own room, he tends to shed a lot of unneeded clothing as well.

Gwendel likes females more than males and he likes flirting. Once he finds out that a certain person likes him, he will start flirting openly with them and then in his cruel way, tell them he was just playing with them when they leave the school. He loves to break other people’s hearts because it’s just so much fun to watch people in emotional trauma. However, besides being a flirt, he is highly romantic if he really likes a person and bedding with them is one of his favorite things to do. In other words, Gwendel is an open player and everyone knows it. And yet, females and some males can’t stop falling in love with him.

However, his bad side really shines from his cunning and sarcastic behavior before people he dislikes. Like most of the staff, he has a temper, too. And when that temper comes out, it is best to duck for cover. This five thousand year old vampire is not afraid to show his wrath. He loves poking fun of people and being an elegant respected male all the same. Gwendel is a dramatic vampire as well and when he is shocked, he exaggerates it immensely.


Appearance:
Gwendel doesn’t have a specific school wear. If it is a formal school thing that isn’t a ball, he wears a long loose black robe with silver buckles to show modesty. And his boots are often black with silver buckles as well.

In a very formal occasion (like a party or ball) he wears a jet black outfit with a cape connected with chains with the collar up turned. He looks like a dignified duke in it and the designs upon his clothing (outside the cape) are silver and as well as gold and white. His boots are sleek with tiny heels.

However, the common casual wear of his is a sleeveless robe that often hangs unbuttoned, showing his firm upper body. He wears loose black slacks and a long black belt goes around his robe and buckles on his waist. On his left upper arm is a ring that is neither too tight nor too loose for him. The ring is made of onyx and it contrasts nicely with his pale skin.

Gwendel’s hair is dark brown and wavy, falling past his shoulders a couple of inches. It shines with life to it and is silky to the touch. His long bangs are parted in the middle to show his face. When he feels like it, he ties it up, leaving the bangs for style.

The vampire’s eyes are cold and full of life at times. They may be dark violet, but his eyes also show a red tint in the light. His ears are sharp and elfin and his left ear is pierced. A tiny silver earring is always seen on that ear. Gwendel is a gorgeous looking vampire and all his features are young and taut. This makes him look like a man in his late twenties, but his lips are colorless for being undead and his skin is deathly pale.

His build is a wiry one and he has no problem showing his cold hard stomach or firm muscled chest. His skin is smooth and hairless even. He stands 6ft 4in tall and never slouches if he can. His poise and movements make him not only look graceful, but sometimes haughty as well.

History:
Gwendel was born in a city named Vlad and he was born into a highly noble family as well. He was born a wizard and his family was the highest authority. He lived his first twenty years in leisure, but then a vampire decided to show up. The vampire threatened Gwendel’s family that he will destroy the city of Vlad, but perhaps he wouldn’t if they gave him Gwendel. The young wizard didn’t fear the vampire and his family had faith in their son. And so, he left with the vampire and somehow ended up in a cave with him. It was there that he was turned into the immortal vampire. But once he was turned. He not only tasted his master’s blood, but he drained the other vampire to the bone. Because of this, Gwendel went insane, unable to control his mind anymore.

For a decade he spent his days wandering blankly as the vampire he had eaten took control of his body. It was not until he had reached Vlad once more that he was able to fight the vampire down. However, the city of Vlad didn’t deal kindly with vampires and so he was exiled.

When he was exiled, he wandered from his neutral ground to the forbidden grounds of Nightmare. There he found that vampires and monsters were accepted and he stayed there. Now Gwendel was a pretty piece of male flesh there and so he found that he could easily satisfy himself with women quite easily. It was because of this that he met with Seriah Slimythings. At that time, he didn’t realize who she was and flirted with her. And then one night, when Gwendel got bored with her, he tried to leave but before he could, the woman put a ring on his upper arm. Alarmed, Gwendel found himself unable to leave her side until she said so. After much pleading with her, Seriah agreed to stop controlling him, but he will have to work in Nightmare Academy as long as there was still a Slimythings descendant alive. Readily agreeing, Gwendel found himself committed to be an instructor in the Academy.

At first he found it tedious, but after finding out how easily he could manipulate the girls there, he had some fun with toying with their minds while teaching them the art of poison making. And ever since then he has been working in Nightmare Academy, but he did often take temporarily leave to defend the evil grounds from penetration and to just go around looking for some eager young woman to satisfy his needs. Life had been great until Seria Majika decided to come back and teach. For over a century Gwendel was irritated by the woman as she soon got promoted to be the Headmistress of the Academy and now the Poisons Master has a new task as well as his other plans: to somehow get Seria Majika to give up on trying to date him.

Pet: Gwendel has one pet a mummified kitty named Namir. It is almost wrapped entirely in white bandages, but little tufts of fur can be seen here and there. It is a swift creature that the Poisons Master often sends out on errands.
