Edik's Plot

[ryan]

The reason I've made this thread is to figure out what I'm doing with my character and where he fits into Mystic Falls.

Edik Dragomir: Born 1750, turned 1774.
Very quick history:
Edik grew up in Moscow Russia. Moved to London England around 1765ish because his father killed an important man in Russia. 1772 him and his brother Alex joined the British Nazy under Captain James Cook. There were 2 ships, Captain Cook's ship and the Adventure became lost in Artic Fog. The Adventure, the ship that Edik and Alex were on stumbbled across New Zealand.
Here Edik's camp was attacked by Natives, then Edik was captured and turned into a vampire. He managed to get a native witch to give him his magic ring so he could walk in sunlight. Then Edik returned to his crew. That night they were attacked by a pack of wolves and Edik was the only member of the crew to make it out alive.
About a year later Captain Cook's fleet arrived in New Zealand and Declaired war on the Natives. Edik makes a crew of vampires, steals a ship and sails the seven seas.
So for over 60 years he sailed the seas as a pirate named Captain Dragon. During all his sailing and sea battles, Edik found out he could have a slight sway over the weather if he concentrated hard enough. This basically made his ship uncatchable. During the day his crew would stay below deck, during the night they would land where ever they wanted all over the world, murdering and stealing. Until around the year of 1840 when Edik's ship attacked a ship traveling from Europe to America. They killed all of the would be settlers apart from one women "Katerina Petrova"
She convinced Edik to spare her, Edik found out she was a vampire herself. She played with Edik's head and heart until he thought they were both going to live in america happily ever after.
When America came into view Katerina, (Katherine) spiked all the vampire crew's drinks with Revain, including Edik's and burnt the ship and vampires alive. She jumped overboard and swam to America. Edik in his weak state followed, but she got away.
From that day Edik has been in America, plotting his revenge, but changing his way of life as he does it. Katerina had infact taught him how to care again and some of the monster inside of him had been beaten back because of his love for Katerina. 170 years later, by pure chance Edik finds himself wondering into Mystic Falls where Katerina has become Katherine and Edik's life could start to turn very dramatic.

So...

What to do?

I'm thinking he teams up with the Salvatore brothers, although Edik's learned to care again, he's very harsh still and wont forgive Kathrine. Plus it's a bonus to have a strong vamp on the good side.

Or Edik could join the witches... But the only way which that would happen would be if he fell for one of the main witches in the "Coven" which will be eventually made. Wow I just said witch/which a lot So basically Edik would be the Witches Bodyguard.

Edik's a less rash, more sensible version of Damon in a way. I'd like him to become involved with the Salvatores, but also have his own story and plot. Edik might not get along great with Damon because of the whole "I'm badass,"..."No your not! I'm badass!" thing. But he will show Stefan a lot of respect that I know. He'll be jealous of Stefan because of Stefan's control and that he's living quite a human life and this really appeals to Edik after his murderous past.

But if he gets pissed off enough it could be a murderious present

Who knows? I don't lol.

If you want your character involved with mine somehow reply below or if you have any good ideas reply as well ;D

[rach]

Well Rachel's a witch and well if he needs to meet one they can -nods- He doesn't have to necessarily fall for her because already got her plotted with someone else in thelove department -nods-

[ryan]

Well I'm sure they'll meet eventually, Edik's not going to be an enemy of the witches, unless they're "bad" witches lol

[forbes]

I WANT TO PLOT WITH YOU!

if...only I had some ideas >.>

[Nicholas Kirkland]

I offer up the eccentric Detective Nick Kirkland. Nick doesn't believe in vampires, or werewolves, or witches... He thinks it's like mass hypnosis from too much pop culture hype and television. His lack of belief leaves him open to a lot of possibilities... His brother is about to become a vampire soon, turned by Damon and trained by Katherine. He has been chasing a vampire, though he doesn't know or believe it, refuses to believe it. (Ties into a later plot) If he found out Edik was a vampire, he would be seriously freaked out, but that is what compulsion is for.

He's not on vervain so he's open to that. A far as where to meet, he has an open thread in the park. he has a tendency to rabbit on about weird things to people he is comfortable with. Since he doesn't know Edik, he'd tone down the eccentricity a bit and go into profiling mode.

Finally, something would shut him up... How long that would last would determine how talkative Nick was. He could, in theory, be a somewhat useful ally, as he has government access to a number of things and can confiscate samples from blood banks without being questioned, hide bodies, cover up murders if Edik went on a rampage. Like he said to his brother: "When you wear a badge, you're always on duty."

Not exactly an ideal friend, though depending on Edik's opinion of humans, he could be an annoyance, an enemy, whatever you feel the need to have a slot for. If you're not interested, that's cool too just lemme know.

[ryan]

Nick it all sounds good lol. I think Edik would prefer to use nick, being a stranger in town your character would be very useful to mine. Edik's good because he's learning to care about life again and because he doesn't like Katherine. But he does have a bad past and old habits die hard. So Edik's going to play along with Nick, become allies of sorts.

Caroline I want to plot as well ;D I was thinking........ Edik could maybe take Caroline under his wing somewhat, therefore taking a bit of stress off of the Salvatores? Edik is enemys with Katherine and if Caroline explains what she's done to her, Edik could be like "hmmm I might have to go have a word with her about all this..." Caroline could basically fill Edik in on everything if she trusted him enough? Edik's a random stranger in town remember. Buuuuut Caroline would probs think he's cool lol, dark, strong, Katherine hater, motorbike dude with an attitude.
He could even maybe teach Caroline some Vampire tricks? I can think of some imaginative ways of hunting, checking the direction of the wind because of scent, attacking from above because you leave no tracks and get the element of surprise. Edik's been around since 1750 lol. Ryan (me) I'm just nutts I'll think of something

Like any of those ideas? doesn't matter if you don't Fill me in if you've thought of anything.

[Nicholas Kirkland]

Being used is just fine by me. Nick has a tendency to trust rashly so, in that sense, it works. He wouldn't know what hit him. As far as Nick knows, his stay is only temporary so he would be up for whatever was asked of him to bring excitement to the small town. He finds Mystic falls small, boring, traditional, and very Stepford and breaking up the monotony, even by being a pawn, would be a chance he would jump at. He's impulsive by nature so he'd be the first one to jump on the -insert suggestion here- and be like "Lets do this thing!"

As a Federal Agent, he doesn't have to worry about the local law enforcement. There's a lot of red-tape to wade through to arrest him. I'm sure he'd appreciate the fact that Edik was basically good, though he'd laugh in his face if Edik said he was a vampire. "Yeah, and I'm Napoleon." He doesn't have to lie to Nick or anything. Nick has been known to spin a yarn of unbelievable crap for as long s he thinks someone would believe him, and he would simply assume Edik was doing the same thing. Since Edik is able to move in the sun due to his ring, Nick would assume he was human without Edik ever having to confirm or deny it and Nick would never check.

Ok then we'll have to do an rp, it might have to wait a little while though because I've got a 2 rps at the moment, one with Damon and the other with Katherine. After I've done a few replys in those rps I should of thought of a decent reason to get the law on Edik's side. Is that cool?

[forbes]

Why yes, Caroline would think he's cool along with cute and if he teaches her some vampire tricks and how to track prey or whatever, she would want to return the favor by telling him about Katherine but Caroline does have some loyalties and isn't that blonde so when it comes to actually trusting him and telling him information about Elena and/or the Salvatore brothers she wouldn't since they were the ones who began helping her in the first place. But she's paranoid and doesn't know the full story between the two groups so she would automatically assume if he knows Katherine that he knows 'her' group.

but I like ze ideas <333
