The Dancing Crow

Hey, I'm Ares. Big, bad, scary vampire that your kind is supposed to be afraid of. And I'm here to help save you!

They call me the "Dancing Crow". Don't ask me who 'they' is. No idea. Anyway, my kind has emerged from the shadows and ripped the mantle of 'dominant species', or whatever, right from your hands. Shame, really. If only you didn't erase magic from your history.

Anyway-z, I used to prowl the streets, ripping to shreds the evils of your society. Like some twisted superhero, or something. Everything changed when other vampires had enough, and well, here we are. Now my gang and I are trying to establish harmony in this city, at least. Not many would expect a gang, of all things, to be heroes. But here we are.

Our job is to help you widdle humans by getting rid of an evil tyrant, Ash, in this unnamed city. Well, that's hard to do, so we got allies. A half-dragon, a Tasmanian Devil shapeshifter, you know, cool stuff like that. Now, if only I could get this vampire hunter to leave me alone. No idea what her deal is, but she clearly can't kill me despite 'trying' her hardest. Ah well, I know my job, and it's to continue doing SOMETHING to help out here.
