Tristan de Valois (TRIS-tan de VAL-wah)

Enforcer and Disciplinarian

Sir Tristan Yann de Valois (a.k.a. Tris)

Tristan de Valois
Tristan, is a formidable Templar Knight who, through a twist of fate, became a vampire. This unique combination of a disciplined warrior and a creature of the night presents a complex character straddling two very different worlds.
Born in the time of the Crusades, Tristan was a dedicated Templar Knight, sworn to protect the innocent and uphold justice. His life took an unexpected turn during a battle in the Holy Land when he was turned into a vampire. This transformation was both a curse and a revelation, endowing him with immense strength and eternal life but at the cost of his humanity. Struggling with his new existence, Tristan sought to reconcile his knightly vows with his vampiric nature. He roamed the world, using his powers to fight injustices in the darkness, while constantly battling his own thirst for blood. Over the centuries, Tristan became a guardian of the night, protecting those who fall prey to supernatural threats. His existence is a perpetual conflict between his Templar ideals and his vampiric instincts, making him a solitary figure, feared by many but respected by those who understand the depth of his torment and the nobility of his quest.
