Ryker

About

Centuries of survival have calcified into an obsessive cartography, with every vintage map marking not just territories, but the countless lives Ryker has outlived. His razor-sharp intellect and predatory stillness mask a profound loneliness—a vampire who collects human histories but can never truly belong to them.

Backstory

Ryker was turned into a vampire in the late 19th century by a mysterious woman named Yumi, who vanished shortly after. He spent decades wandering the globe, driven by an insatiable curiosity and a desire to understand the world's ever-changing landscapes. His most treasured possession is a map of Edo-era Japan, given to him by his human family before they were tragically lost to a plague. Ryker's immortality has allowed him to witness the rise and fall of empires, but it has also left him with a deep sense of loneliness and a longing for connection.
