GENDER:Male.

APPEARANCE:Enzo is a bulky man and a tall one to boot. He has the muscles to defend himself in a fight and the vampiric speed to help him flee (if that ever happens). In summary, Enzo doesn’t look like one to be messed with and win. Hazel-green eyes are his natural hue, though when he’s hungry they can turn into more of a ‘yellow’ hue. His skin is more of a pale tone due to the lack of sunlight but he isn’t too pale or albino; just below average for skin color one might say. His hair is brown with some highlights of a lighter and darker brown; much like the bark of a tree. The clothes the man wears is usually casual; jeans, t-shirt, the works, unless he is on the job then they vary.
CELEB CLAIM:Channing Tatum.

PERSONALITY:In the past, Enzo here or “Grimm” as he likes to be called sometimes, was what one would say: Evil. He wouldn’t hesitate to hurt you in any way possible, even for the smallest of offenses. Nonetheless, that was the past. Even though the past may often repeat itself and things may not have died out so much, Enzo is more or less a changed man. He is still a jerk, an arsehole, but not as bad as he was in the past. Now, he shows some mercy and sometimes gives second chances, nonetheless, he is still a cold and crude man.
Though these days, Enzo shows more mercy than most but that’s on a rare basis. The man has a “no tolerance” rule that tends to take effect more than usual. Old habits die hard. Things must be organized and precise. He isn’t one to take second best. Even to his children and fledglings – they mustn’t disappoint him. Enzo is a stubborn man that usually doesn’t take no for an answer, though sometimes, depending on the situation, he’d take the no. Usually he has “alternative motives” to his actions. Overall, Enzo is an ill-tempered man. He can be labeled as a jerk but also a very “harsh” teacher – showing his ‘love’ (which he does have and can express, it’s just rare) in a rash way.
LIKES:Women, when his children do good (make him proud, not necessarily do a good deed like helping the homeless), blood, feeding on people, ancient history, cliché horror films, working out, exploring caves, going on adventures out of the city, state, and country, having silent reading time, candles, clocks that ‘tick and tock’.
DISLIKES:Fast food, animals, small children, when his “children” disappoint him, homeless people and beggars, anarchy, stupid commercials, chick flicks and love movies, holidays, black people (not full-on racist, just dislikes them), losing the remote control, the winter time.
SECRETS:He turned his family, except the ones that ran away.
FEARS:Of being discovered.
Dying by someone in his family or “fledglings”.
The hunters…
DREAMS:Of having a big family that will pass down the vampire genes and keep his family line.
STRENGTHS:Sixth sense, heightened speed, hearing, strength, and smell, stubborn, disciplinary, intellectual, rich and powerful.
WEAKNESSES:His children, rice (by myth), the sunlight (by myth), cliché horror movies, his ocd-like scheduling, dark humor.
`your last breath, your last stance
the last of all in your command*
the last of all in your command*
HISTORY:On one dark night in the late 1700’s, Enzo and his twin sister Khloe were born. Unlike his sister that was quiet, Enzo cried and cried; demanding and begging for warmth and attention. As a newborn, he was a noisy little guy unlike his sister but soon enough he started to calm down. His childhood was pretty average. As a child, Khloe and himself were spoiled a bit – given gifts and treated like the little prince and princess of the family… That is until little Naomi was born. Now him and Khloe weren’t the babies of the family anymore. When they were about five or six was when Naomi was brought back home. Enzo was jealous of her being ‘praised’ more than him – which began the start of his crude behavior, while Khloe accepted her. The other, older siblings, Aaliyah and Ezra absolutely loved her and were happy for her mother. As days progressed, the children were home-schooled and learned etiquette as well as academics.
As Sophia, the mother, paid more attention to her little girls, it was when Dominick started to take the boys in for more manly activities. He taught them hunting and debates, while the mother taught the girls sewing and being beautiful. Enzo’s attitude was getting worse and worse as he felt more powerful than other people thanks to being raised in a richer family. Enzo, however, was smart and all that but was a rebellious teenager and soon started to walk away from his father. Hunting seemed to be the only thing that brought Enzo on his good side. When he was sixteen, him and his sister were “handed off” to people that they didn’t even know of due to a pre-planned marriage. He was soon engaged to a beautiful woman named Vivian. At first he hated her guts but soon like any other man, grew to accept her and eventually… Love her.
After being married first, his sister soon followed close behind. First being married of the twins (the other siblings were already handed off), he was also the first to have children. Nocolai and Sophia were soon born months later. He almost lost them but they managed to cling onto life… Unlike the mother. Vivian soon died due to birth complications and left Enzo with two children. The man was… Somewhat abusive; blaming the children for his wife’s death. After a few months and seeing them cry thanks to his abuse, the man started to slowly calm down and slowly started to treat them like children; his children that he cared for, but didn’t fully love. Some years later when he was about eighteen and worked two jobs, he started to fall for someone… It was odd because he showed signs of an almost asexual nature, but the man was falling… And hard. For a firecracker woman much like himself named Juliet. Enzo soon met his match with Juliet. Both had the same crude, rude, and temperamental personality. The two clunked heads quite often but both doubtfully loved each other.
Soon she was pregnant, but when she found out, Juliet freaked out and the two broke up. Enzo had a fit and of course took it out on his children, whom were around two years of age now. Nine months or so later, Juliet gave birth to a little boy, which she named Cooper. Enzo wanted to visit her, but when he found out her ‘betrothed’ was with her, he didn’t. Once again jealousy befell upon him and once again, his children faced his wrath. She claimed that the baby was her boyfriends and not Enzo’s, but the man knew better… Those eyes, that baby face… He saw the child once and just knew it was his. Plus… She told him she was pregnant when they broke up. Her current boyfriend was oblivious and assumed the child was his own.
Unbeknownst to them, Enzo kept an eye on the child as he took care of his own with the help of his older siblings and his parents that had some extra money and time. When Enzo was about twenty-two, and his children were around six, was when the worst night of his life happened. Or well… Maybe best day. Depending on how one looked at it. During the time, he was having a stable income and it was around the time of winter when it happened. His eldest sister picked up his children and took them to his parents’ house – whereas the whole family was having a little ‘get together’ for the upcoming holiday. That day… Enzo didn’t show up until late at night. That day when the sun was setting and Enzo was coming home from work, was when it happened. A woman followed him as he walked down the streets. At first Enzo ignored it and thought she was a cold, homeless woman so paid no mind to her, but when she started touching him and grabbing onto his clothes and hands, was when he had enough.
Enzo reacted in an abusive way; slapping the woman across the face and yelling at her. That was when she struck. With no one around or paying attention, the woman pulled out a knife and stabbed Enzo in the side. As the man yelped in pain was when she struck again, biting him on the neck. Enzo tried to push her away, but the woman drunk rapidly and quickly. As the seconds flew by, Enzo became weaker and weaker. Releasing him in both ways, the woman held him up, acting much like a worried wife and soon took her into her home – dragging him some blocks away. From the wound on his side leaking blood and from all the blood that she had drained from him, Enzo soon fell unconscious.
When he awoke, Grace grabbed his neck and bit her wrist; forcing Enzo to drink. At first the man protested but soon as those vampire genes locked with his own, he soon accepted it and drunk from her. She soon released his neck and soon ran her fingers through his hair. A good boy he was, according to her. When he finished drinking, the genetics were fully consuming him and now, he was turned into a vampire, much like his sire, Grace. She informed him what he was now and at first he didn’t believe him, but when that hunger rose, Enzo took control. She tried to teach him but the man almost caused a scene outside by attacking a woman in the snow outside. Dragging Enzo back inside, she explained once again that he needed to be careful. She taught him the basics in short and sweet words. That was when Enzo remembered about the get together his family had. Growling at Grace, the man ignored her words and went to his parents’ home.
He was late, but it wasn’t his fault. His excuse to them? He found a new him. They didn’t get it and he wasn’t going to tell them at this point in time. As dinner was served, Enzo tried to eat but it just didn’t taste right. Being new, the hunger rose and the control lacked. After some hours after his first kill, Enzo as hungry again and this time turned to his family. Without much thought, he pushed out from the chair and attacked his little sister, Naomi; biting her in the neck and draining as much as he could before his father intervened. That was when Enzo attacked him as well, biting him. His two eldest siblings Aaliyah and Ezra grabbed each other’s hands and soon fled from the horrific scene.
His mother, his children, and his sister ran away and hid somewhere inside the house, while Naomi and Dominick remained almost lifeless on the floor. He was a newly turned vampire but those urges came natural to him and soon… He turned his father and his little sister; letting them drink his blood and soon they became one like he. With heightened senses taking control, Enzo left his father and sister and went to find the rest of his family. The man was still hungry and felt the need to turn his family. “Don’t you want the power!?” he called out, following his family’s scent through the house. Finding them in a room, Enzo was attacked by his mother; beating him with a fireplace poker. Enzo took this as a threat and attacked her, biting her neck and dropping her weak body to the floor. As Enzo approached his sister, his children screamed, scared. But Enzo didn’t attack them. Instead he grabbed Khloe’s hair and dragged her to the corner, biting her. That was when his father came in.
He was a new vampire that finally came to and the first thing on his mind was to feed… He attacked his wife, feeding her. Knowing this and feeling her life slip away, Enzo stopped biting Khloe and attacked his father. It was a dominance battle between the two before Dominick backed off and Enzo finished the turning cycle – turning his mother before she died, before going to Khloe, turning her. At first he didn’t know why, but then he realized… He didn’t want to see his family die as he never aged… They will be like him. They will be powerful than any human, like Grace said! They will be superior like him and live forever. Enzo wasn’t thinking… When he did this. Wasn’t thinking very rationally or well.
His father stood by his wife and his daughter Naomi, staring at Enzo’s children. Khloe was coming to when she saw Naomi attack Enzo – wanting the blood of a human on her tongue. Enzo defended them to the best of his ability – ending up killing his sister. It was then that the hierarchy of his new family soon came to be. He was the alpha male here and everyone else was second. His children were not to be touched…
Sophia, his mother, couldn’t take the death of her little girl Naomi, nor the fact that everyone was a monster… And later that night, the woman hung herself outside right before the sun started to rise. She died and turned to ash, floating in the wind. That was what Grace told him too – that sunlight was evil, though when he was turned, he didn’t know why, but he hated it before she told him. Guess it was the vampire genetics of survival that informed him and gave him ‘clues’.
About fifteen years passed was when Grace and himself became closer. She had other fledglings, but Enzo was her favorite and strongest – with fledglings of his own that were doing quite well. Enzo and her had a little relationship, nothing love, just lust to release tension that built up. But when she threatened to turn his children was when Enzo snapped. In the night, Grace and him got into a fight – one that left the other dead. Enzo barley survived the fight and went home bloody and wounded. When he returned home to his children (whom were living with him for protection and the fact that he didn’t want them to live elsewhere and away form him yet), he then realized that… Maybe Grace was right…
He needed to turn them. Else… They’d grow old, too. Then eveantually die. As the two children slept, Enzo turned them in the middle of the night. It took them a few days to accept it, and soon Enzo trained them much like Grace did with him, but Enzo took his time; teaching him things again and again, making sure they got it through their heads. They weren’t allowed fledglings… It was official. Only he was. They weren’t allowed to talk to anyone else about what they were. They were supposed to stay nighty creatures. No exceptions. One day though, Nicolai told his ‘girlfriend’ what he was and soon turned her – saying she was part of the family now. This, Enzo did not accept.
His son soon died by his hands right in front of his little girl, Sophia. It was a warning to never betray him or disobey – which Sophia soon got into her head one-hundred percent. The girlfriend was left tied to a tree to die when the sun rose that following morning.
Feeling absent of a child, of a man, Enzo went searching for Cooper. He knew Juliet’s family still but couldn’t quite find her. After some months, he soon made contact with her son and turned him. This child was a handful, but after some beatings, Cooper got everything. Being a vampire, he was gained new senses and soon learned that Enzo was indeed his father. He smelt like him and Juliet, not this other man she was sleeping with. Taking Cooper under his wing, he now had two children.
Though as years upon years passed, now entering the 1900’s, it was then that Enzo felt the need to have more children. Unable to reproduce thanks to his genes, Enzo turned a woman named Aria he worked with into a vampire, taking her under his wing as one of his own. She was taught the basics and was told the same rules as his other children did. After about fifty years, she did good until one day she disappointed him. She stole from Enzo. That in return led to her death. The same way that his own blood, Nicolai, died.
Not too long later, now that his children left the nest but stayed very close (they finally had permission, just took forever), and that his sister and father did their own thing but like his children – stayed close and in contact, was when Enzo got introduced into spelunking in the 1960’s. That was when he turned his second victim that wasn’t his own blood – a man named Cole. His reign didn’t last too well. Just a few years Cole was under his wing before he disobeyed him and tried to overrule him. Enzo ended up killing him with a stake. It was then that he realized he’ll never turn another person again – just feed. It was… Useless to turn again. He had two beautiful children as well as a sister and a father, he didn’t need any more people to look after. Or well, for now.
In the 1980’s, Enzo got caught by a man, a hunter, that knew about the vampires. Enzo managed to get on the man’s good side and given a test, Enzo passed. Enzo, to this man, wasn’t an all about bad guy, just rough around the edges. Sure he turned his family, but he did it to have them live with him forever. Enzo lied about the fledglings. The man started to trust Enzo and the two became friends. This man, Richard, was the one to get Enzo into the CIA business. It took him six years, but Enzo was soon a field agent for the CIA as well as a language translator (for German and Italian > English). Richard, who was also CIA, made sure that Enzo’s records were clean and precise – so he wasn’t suspected once more.
In the 2000’s when CGI was becoming more popular, Enzo went into that. Using the money that was passed down back in the day to attend school once more, after four years Enzo managed to become a video programmer. Much like his spelunking job that he does whenever called, his video programmer job was only active whenever an agency or company needed another man. In present day, Enzo lives in Essex, New Jersey; retaining the occupation of a CIA agent and a programmer – trying to adjust himself to this new decade.
