In Altainia there are many types of Vampires an bloodlines, only two are known for looking frightening. The Indari due to their curse of drinking their own blood (as any vampire who drinks their own blood becomes deformed and has some sort of mutation on them, however Indari feel this curse much more harshly and unlike other Vampires can not be cured of it.) Then there is your Strags (a Nosferatu type.) whose features are more bat like. Their nose resembling a bat and pointed ears, their eyes are white, flesh is greyish in tone. They are very known to play dead when in a sticky situation or a dangerous one, it is their defense mechanism and a weakness (As if you frighten them, they will drop and play dead.). They roam the streets and go through trash, they get their cloths from such and any information they can. They are also called whispers, most pay no mind to them, others think Strags are a myth. Others think Strags are just Indari's who have mutated too much.
While Strags are still a mystery, they are very useful too. Their information gathering is unmatched by most, many seek out Strags for such information. One Strags in particular manage his own business in information. He manage to have a whole system to never actually have to see anyone if he could help it. People would leave notes in trash cans and dumpsters when needing his help. He either take the job or not, how anyone would know is if they find the information they seek in their trash cans and dumpsters. It wasn't pretty job and most could pay a rogue or such. However Strags were faster, most of them already knew the information.
Now some knew his name, but no one really knew what he look like. He kept his face hidden, but then Strags didn't like the daylight, it hurt their eyes. They love living in dark places, like sewers or caves and such. The name of this particular Strags is Billamy, who has lived a long life compared to most Strags and had traveled more then most. He was the top Strags to go to for information, he knew most things. His price wasn't too bad either, he usually went for rotting meat. He wasn't picky at all, so long as you left something for him, he give you whatever information you wanted.
Now Billamy was the only Strags to actually go to a different realm, most were happy in Altainia. So Billamy had come to Earth and enjoyed it, he loved staying around this one manor own by a old Vampire by the name of Stahs. He found it quite amazing and quant, he found the dumpster very accommodating and Stahs seem welcoming enough. Billamy chose to stay there and do what Strags do, which was learn information and scavenge.
