⚰. → Ben Barnes : Male : He/Him/His : Guillotine by Jon Bellion — Looks like Aleister Corrigan has been driven to Mystic Falls. The 562/35-year-old witch-vampire hybrid is known for being inquisitive on a good day and troubled on a bad day. Now that you mention it, when I think of them I think of WARM BROWN EYES PEERING THROUGH THE DARK, WEATHERED BOOKS COVERED IN NOTATIONS, A QUIET LIBRARY LIT BY CANDLELIGHT, AND COZY CARDIGANS UNDER LEATHER. Let's hope they enjoy small town Mystic Falls, whilst they still can.

EXTRA STUFF;

Born in 1472

Turned in 1507

Had his years of being less than noble, but ultimately turned things around and has now found himself as a Professor at the Salvatore School.

Aleister is cunning, calculated, a charismatic. To those that oppose him he can come across as harsh and strong-willed, but to those who he can call friend, he is incredibly loyal and would go to the ends of the Earth for them, and has many times. After turning, all of these traits were heightened, making him someone who should not be underestimated.

Born in the late 1400s, Aleister was the youngest member of a coven of witches in a tiny town in England. However, Aleister was different. He didn’t have the same powers as everyone else. As a matter of fact, he technically didn’t have any powers at all. He was a siphoner and could only derive magic from other supernatural creatures or objects. To protect him from ridicule and isolation, his parents kept this fact hidden from the rest of the coven, hoping that eventually they’d collect enough dark objects that Aleister would be able to pass off his magic as his own.

Unfortunately, when Aleister was a teenager, his coven was met with turmoil. A pack of werewolves had moved into the area and were causing problems for the group. Soon, conflict broke out between the two factions which resulted in the extinction of the entire coven, with the exception of Aleister who was able to escape undetected. With no magic of his own, he hadn’t been strong enough to protect his family from harm and he had to learn how to survive without them. He fled to London, hoping to find a means of survival there.

Aleister lived in London for several years, working whatever jobs he could find in order to keep a roof over his head and food in his stomach. Over time his frustration grew that he had no one to guide him in the ways of magic, nor any magic to siphon for himself. Eventually he would have to figure out another way to do things, especially now that he was no longer a child. He was a man and he was tired of feeling week and helpless.

Several years passed before Aleister would have his opportunity to rise from his squalor. He met a beautiful woman, quickly falling for her grace and charm. After learning of her vampirism, Aleister couldn’t have been more intrigued. He craved the power that she possessed. As a vampire, he would have the strength that he always desired, the strength he should have had when his family was overrun all those years ago.

He went to her, hurt and injured (purposefully inflicted), knowing that she would offer her blood to heal him. Once he left her side, fully healed, but with vampire blood in his system he went to his own chambers and grabbed a sword, piercing it through his own heart. He fully believed the stories he had heard from her; that anyone who died with vampire blood in their system would return as a vampire themselves. And return he did.

However, what he didn’t expect was a small twist in his tale. Unlike others who had awoken simply as vampires, Aleister became something else entirely. As a siphoner, Aleister was able to keep his witch powers upon death. He garnered the ability to siphon from himself and thus had an unlimited source of power as a witch-vampire hybrid. Upon learning of this, the woman became furious that he had used her for his own gain, fleeing, never to speak to him again. Although he missed her, Aleister loved what he gained more.
