Weska
The Fiercely Loyal Vampire Boy
Overview
Weska is a 7-year-old Human Vampire living under the protection of Lord Orlon Carvin. Unlike his siblings, Weska has embraced his vampiric nature in a feral and instinctual way, acting as the mansion’s fierce guardian. His aggressive and animalistic demeanor often puts him at odds with others, but his unwavering loyalty to Carvin and his "family" is undeniable. Weska is particularly close to Sonia Nevesso, whom he sees as a mentor and leader, and he is fiercely protective of her.
Early Life
Weska’s early life was one of fear and isolation. Born to a poor family in a remote village, his parents tried to shield him from the horrors of the world, but sickness and famine left him vulnerable. When Weska was only five, a dark force swept through his village, killing his family and leaving him orphaned. Lord Carvin found him years later wandering the wilderness, feral and starving, and took him into his home.
The transformation into a Vampire amplified Weska’s animalistic instincts, making him more aggressive and territorial. Though initially wary of Carvin and the other children, Weska quickly bonded with Sonia, who helped him channel his wild nature into a fierce sense of loyalty and purpose.
Life in Carvin’s Mansion
Weska has become the self-appointed protector of the mansion. He patrols its halls and grounds with an almost predatory vigilance, always on the lookout for intruders or threats. While his behavior can be erratic, his dedication to Carvin and his siblings is unshakable.

- Dodd: Weska has a distant relationship with Dodd, finding his calm demeanor baffling and his culinary pursuits pointless. However, he begrudgingly respects Dodd’s role as a peacekeeper.
- Laern: Weska sees Laern as weak and often intimidates him, though he occasionally shows a protective side when Laern is threatened by outsiders.
- Elys Wisna: Weska and Elys have a complicated dynamic; while he respects her quiet strength, her sadness frustrates him.
- Semil: Weska barely interacts with Semil, dismissing him as too passive to be of any use.
Relationship with Lord Carvin
Weska views Carvin as a father figure and protector. While his aggressive nature sometimes causes tension, Weska’s loyalty to Carvin is absolute. He would do anything to defend him and the family, even if it means putting himself in danger.

"Weska’s got the bite of a wolf and the loyalty to match. He’s reckless, sure, but when the chips are down, there’s no one I’d rather have at my side. Just… don’t get between him and the people he cares about."
