Name: Sherli or "Sheril" Benson
Alias: Li or Ril
Sex: "Male", but is a Hermaphrodite
Sexuality: Bisexual at best
Race: Traditional Vampire (But is a Day Walker)
Powers/Abilities: Duplication- He can make a second self, completely physical and of its own consciousness. It is still a part of him, however.
Duplication Projection- he can make a second self, projecting it any place he has been before.
Restrictions and Details- His other self and his original self can be no more than five feet closer to each other, if they move closer, they automatically fuse back together. The other self and true self have separate memories when parted, they do not know what the other is thinking or what the other knows during their separation. When fused back together, as a whole, Sherli has both memories as one. When one of them is killed, the memories the other had while separated will never be returned, but the one Sherli left over will then become the "original" and still be able to duplicate another self. Only if both Sherlis are found and killed, will Sherli die completely. If one is injured, while the other is not, once fused, the complete Sherli will still have the injuries, same goes if both get injured and fuse.
(*)Now since been granted the ring, the five inch rule is of no effect, so long as they both keep "their" rings on
Sunlight/Moonlight- due to the vampire witch that turned him, odd effects happened to him while he transformed. One, he could stand the sun; but only for a certain amount of time. This also came into effect with moonlight. Being in both "elements" for too long makes him extremely weak and easy to defeat. Most of the time when in the sun, he will stay in shaded areas. During the night, he will most likely just stay in a house with lights on at best if things get too bad.
Age: 700, appears early 20s
Height: Six feet
Weight: 135 lbs
Occupation: Slaves
Weapon(s): He does not resort to weapons, as he tends to flee from a fight. Could use any weapon available if he has to.
Accessories: A golden, antique crafted ring with an emerald in the middle - is enchanted. He also has an odd assortments of different colored sunglasses and hats. He and Ril now both have slave collars.
Appearance: Li has nearly platinum blonde hair, rather long, and "flowy". His eyes are an unusual mix of brown and red, as his fight between animal and human blood give him the unusual eye color. He as seen as ethereally pretty, as most vampires are, but he seems even more unusually attractive than most. He is usually seen in very dressy, fancy clothes: polos, vests, blouses, etc. And can be seen wearing an assortment of colored sunglasses. He either uses them to keep his sensitive vampiric eyes from the sun, or wears them to hide his unusual eye color. He can also be seen wearing a strange straw sun-hat. Seeing him that, allows people to believe he's very...eccentric. Perhaps metro sexual would make it more understandable.
He is also extremely skinny and tall, possibly reaching a bit past six feet. Li is also rather long limbed, mostly legs, as it makes it easier for him to run away from danger. Despite that, he still looks small; mainly because he looks so fragile. In other words, although he is rather tall, his personality and gentle appearance can make him appear small to people, whether they really notice it.
When his other self is duplicated from him, Sheril looks practically just the same as Li, with only even more feminine qualities. Ril's skin is still a soft pale, same eye colors-only his tastes in clothing and the way he holds himself are different. Where Li is somewhat comfortable with himself, Ril is not and can seem even more helpless and delicate than he wants to be.
Personality: In truth, Sherli is a light-hearted person, with a habit of causing trouble. It wasn't that he didn't have respect for women, he just wasn't happy with just one. He can be rather blunt when he speaks, but can also be extremely manipulative and seducing when planning to feed. He has yet to remind himself that he can't drink like he used to.
Being not your average vampire, he enjoys eating human food; mainly sweets. He can also get drunk rather fast. When drunk, you could probably get him to do anything, but he probably wouldn't do much of a good job, being drunk and all.
When using duplication, the two of him are pretty much the same, but the duplicate seems to be more sentimental, a voice of reason, and overly dramatic at times. Also the kindest of the two and emotional. However, the "true" Sherli is seen to be rather dark, sarcastic, and down right agitated with people and his other self- though he is secretly searching for a way to keep them both from no longer fusing into each other so he doesn't have to put up with the other Sherli's thoughts and memories when back together.
Appealing Characteristics: Li is a quick thinker, allows himself to think about the situation, but he sometimes doesn't have time for that. He has his moments of kindness and helpfulness, although he tries to deny it. and it rarely ever happens; unless this is Ril, of course.
Appalling Characteristics: Li can get easily angered, can be often sarcastic, and tends to not take in consideration, other people's feelings. In other words, he's a real jerk and completely inconsiderate. Manipulative at best, and down right cruel when he wants to be. This can't truly be said for Ril, as he would start crying if someone treated him like that, let alone treat someone like that
Likes: Being with someone, having a peace of mind, affection, being able to control himself, and not having to share Ril's memories and emotions all of the time anymore.
Dislikes: Being in pain, feeling pain, witches, werewolves/Lycans (he's allergic), most other vampires usually(personal grudge), and being left alone.
Fears: Being absolutely and undeniably alone; although since he has gotten the ring he doesn't fear it as much now. However, he still fears he may lose the ring and lose any chance of happiness.
Strengths: His quick wit, "charm", and possibly any vampiric ability than can possibly help him on the way.
Weaknesses: Anything to have to do with his curse(s). he still suffers from the ability not to touch or be touched by anyone if he does not have the ring on him. Sometimes he has to take it off, because it drains energy from him.
History: Sherli was born during the Italian Renaissance in London, England, growing up in its beauty and romantic era. As he grew up, he became a lady's man, so to speak. He would play a gentlemen and win the finest girl's heart, and then break it the moment he found an even finer woman. It wasn't until he was bitten, did he realize the last woman he wood was a vampiress. She was going to drain him of his life completely, but she began to think that forcing him to live as a monster would be more befitting of his already unbeating heart.
She left him there during his transformation and forced him to live out his new "life" alone. however, after several years in hiding, feeding off cattle and unlucky villages, he became strong enough to begin his journeys as most vampires do. Pretend to fit in with human society and trick them one by one to feed. However, since the transformation did nothing to change him, or bring him remorse for what he had done, the vampiress soon found him again.
She was not an average vampiress, either. She was also a witch. His little "adventures" were not going to go unpunished. She wanted him to suffer, not enjoy it. She knew about his strange vampiric gift he had been granted during his transformation, and felt that she could make it worse with add on features, so to speak.
First, she made it so his beauty was a curse, as she made it so that any physical contact with another being was more than painful to him. A single touch could bring undeniable suffering.
Second, was to make him freak among freaks. She made it so he was forced to live a life stuck in-between society. Neither male nor female.
After the curse was placed on him, Sherli found it harder and harder to feed, which in turn made him extremely weak. He had to resort from stealing blood supplies from hospitals until he realized he could drink from nearly-dead people or animals. So long as they weren't touching him, he would be fine.
He is now searching for a way to lift the curse, or find and kill the vampiress who placed it on him. He has yet to have any luck finding either.
Meeting another witch, despite how he loathes them, Li made a deal with her that could allow him to lift one of his curses and an added bonus. In exchange, he gave up part of his soul. This left him shaken for quite some time, but he has recovered. The witch granted him a special enchanted ring. When wearing it, his curse of feeling unbearable pain when touched is lifted...so long as he is wearing it. It also subdues his power of duplication, allowing him to not have to deal with Ril in his mind all the time - as they can still be together, but separate without fearing fusion.
Recently, due to his appearance, along with Ril's, they both fear that soon they may be picked off for slavery.
Their fears came true as Li and Ril were captured by Hiro and sent to the slave auction, where they were then sold off to an ancient vampire by the name of Merrick. To what will happen to them now is unknown.
