About Count Vasile Atieno

Background: Count Atieno is an acknowledged scion of a noble house in Ustalav. He was born as a symbol of the truce between the human nobility and the vampire lords of the undercity. Raised as a human bastard of his lord, he learned early to disguise his nature. For years, he lived in the guise of a human, until a chance encounter with healing magic revealed his nature to the court. After the scandal, he was officially recognized and adopted in the the noble family.

When he reached the age of maturity, he was inducted into the bloody cult of Zura and taught blood magic and curses.

After a string of gruesome murders, the cult was found and driven out by Pharasmin inquisitors. Vasile was not among those staked and returned to the Lady of Death, but he felt lost without the direction of the cult. After reflection, he decided to put his skils to use. He resumed his human guise and traveled south through Taldor to join the Pathfinder Society. Now he works to protect the small people and free others from the thrall of religious leaders.
