Alkaar is a dhampir whose thirst for blood is nothing compare to his thirst for money. He's a fraud, always trying to uses his knowledge and his natural charm to get his way. Unfortunately, his greed/envy soon became his downfall. He was raised in the street, never knowing his parents, but quite aware of his unusual nature. There he began his career as a fraud and a thief. At first, stealing the local shopkeepers was enough, some would say it was like a game to him, but after a while it became boring to him.
Then he tried to charm his way up into the middle-class, where his knowledge was fascinating to some, and there he began to work on the downfall of those who took interest in him, while securing their goods for himself. With this strategy, he began to accumulate a lot of holdings. It was a this time, that a part of him began to wake up... In a twisted adventure he had, he tasted the blood of someone. This experience was so good that he soon began to develop a taste for Human blood. At first he tried to fight it, he tried to taste the blood of other creatures, but it did not work. His thirst for blood always seemed to come back, and he now had to live with that thirst, but with his wealth, it was easy to buy some poor folks their blood and silence.
At the same time, as a new member of the middle-high class, some of the nobles of the region began to take interest in him. Always lying about his past, he managed to convince one of them to give his daughter to mariage to him, so he could join the nobility. That plan worked, but soon backfired. Only a month after his mariage, his new father in law discovered some of Alkaar's past deeds and arrange for his arrest as soon as possible.
Alkaar's fraud earned him a life-long sentence. He is now destined to work in the salt-mines for the rest of his life, but Alkaar did not achieve what he did with mere luck, and he's now trying to work his way out of it.
