Cain

Father of Murder and the first alukah, leech, vampire. Ancient beyond ages, Cain is the most powerful vampire in the world, enough to make Dracula, or Orlok, or Báthory seem like mere gnats in comparison. He is not as involved in human society as his "aunt" Lilith, but his offspring have spread the curse of vampirism to the far corners of the globe. While he can spend decades in slumber of seclusion, when he chooses to act, the ramifications echo through history.
