  Black, and can often be described as being cold, dead, and barren of emotion or vitality. Often compared to onyx or obsidian depending on the light.

  Quiet, calm, emotional distance, snobbery, expensive tastes, dominant personalities, strong willed individuals, intelligence, displays of prowess (He finds them funny), skepticism, extravagance, grandeur, observance, consonance and order with just a touch of chaos.
  
  
• Traits that he Dislikes:
  Warmth, prying into his mind/emotions, over activity, inattention, false modesty, false personalities, incompetence, mortality, weakness, lack of wealth, down to earth, realism/down to earth-ness, sweet people (They make him feel), too much cohesion.
  
  
• Likes:
  Classical music, or really any music with an emphasis on structure and not the emotional quality of the work. Artwork, comfort, brightness, wealth; he likes to work with his mind and loves puzzles, logic, things that are his, warmth even though he rarely feels it.
  
  
• Dislikes:
  Discomfort, having to do a great deal of physical work, those who invade his personal space, anyone who tries to get close to him without putting forth the effort, hugs from anyone who doesn’t and hasn’t known him for some time.

  Cold, distant, he has expensive tastes and tends to be a skeptic. He is often considered cruel and overconfident. His emotions are usually well hidden.
  
  
• Quirks:
  Consistent overwhelming stupidity causes violent anger in him.

  He is honest and tells it like it is. He will be unfailingly loyal if someone has earned his trust, and can prove to be an excellent conversationalist when given time to grow used to another person.
  
  
• Negative Traits:
  Distant from most people, judgmental, harsh.
  
  
• Phobias:
  People getting into his head.
  
  
• Overall:
  Paradigm is a complex person. He lacks the ability to feel a lot of the emotions that most people feel on a regular basis. He strives to be lawful and logic driven. He tends to be lazy and complacent, enjoys the expensive things in life. Despite his coldheartedness, he does have a soft streak for those who do work hard to get to know him. He is undyingly loyal, and can be known to be very kind though indirectly, of course.

[Paradigm]

Paradigm was born and raised in RavenBlack city, to two Korean immigrants. Both parents were very independently wealthy and had very busy lifestyles due to their accounting work, and as such Para very rarely got the attention that he deserved despite his excellent marks in school. For years, he was thought to be autistic because he rarely spoke, often relying on gestures to get his point across. The truth is that Para was born empathy and rarely felt the need to ever do any display of communication above and beyond the necessary. Not having active parents or even a nanny to care for him, and being a bit of a social outcast, he developed emotions differently than his peers, only really showing coldness, or extreme anger.

Eventually, Paradigm was forced to look into himself one night after some of the students at the school he attended basically called him a freak, and he resolved to prove that he was like the rest of them. In a moment of rare passion, he broke the rules of his home and sneaked out of his house for what he planned to be a night of fun and debauchery. Unfortunately, Para happened to stumble into a vampire bar. His life was saved by Bambi, who ended up turning him that night.

After being turned, Paradigm did not let himself be registered as dead; rather he killed off his parents, collecting the sizable trust fund from either. Paradigm’s clothing, hair, and timidness, and the overall awkward student persona went away and were replaced by the confident, cool, though still quiet individual that he is today. Another result of his turning was that his empathy reversed, pushing his emotions to the surface rather than him taking them in. His “outward empathy”, as he calls it, affects the climate around his immediate body, usually creating a slightly cooler area due to his distant nature.
