"This is Emmanuel. His life sucks"

That's seriously how I'd start this guy's story.

'Manuel's a character I've been thinking of off and on. Sadly, the more I do, the more angsty and dramatic it becomes. I can't stand drama in huge amounts, so I may have to use him as a parody of the stereotypical "angsty vampire" type.

The thing about Emmanuel is that he has terrible luck. Most of his family is either dead, or missing. The exception for this would be his mother, who he writes to frequently. He's a servant for some sickly prince that's going to die on him later.

Emmanuel becomes terribly frustrated with being associated with so much death. It gets to the point where he tries to find a way to get the boy's soul back, which leads him to a bargain with the Reaper to KILL MOAR. Thus destroying him further, as Manuel is certainly not the killing type himself.

Yes, I realize how long it's been since I posted something, so I thought I'd return with moar OCs before posting the shiteloads of Tales of the Abyss fanart that I've been working on~ Enjoy for now
