If humans feed off animals, and vampires feed from humans, is there not the possibility that something exists which feeds on vampires?
The Krusnik's true name has been lost to the ages. He goes by Drako, but there is much evidence that this is not his true name, but simply one that he has chosen to go by. It is believed that he knows full well what his actual name is, but chooses not to use it, due to his hatred for such magic as the Old Tongue.
He often does not fully utilise his powers in order to keep things as a challenge for him. He is incredibly apathetic, but often treats life-or-death fights like a game, just to get his adrenaline pumping.
History
Drako is ancient. He states to have been a youth when the Earth formed, although there is obviously no evidence to support this. He also claims to have been from a large family, most of whom have since died. As such, it is rare to find someone who knows enough about him to get a good deal of information about his past.
Drako claims to have been present at most of the world's most influential moments. He doesn't give a comprehensive list, but mostly throwaway comments to times of note in Earth's history.
By his own admission, he was present at the following times:
- Extinction of the dinosaurs (but he never says what caused it)
- Certain points in ancient Egypt
- Building of the Giza pyramids
- Expansion of the Roman Empire: Gaul, Egypt, Britain.
- Crucifixion of Christ
- Fall of Rome
- The Crusades
- Both World Wars
Abilities
Drako is a Krusnik, (or Kresnik) and as such, has the standard abilities gifted by Kresnik Physiology. These include, but are not limited to:
- Blood Empowerment - Drako gains power when blood is shed in his vicinity, and even more so if he ingests it. The more blood he drinks, the more powerful he gets, literally without limit.
- Blood Manipulation/Hemokinesis - Drako can control blood, and usually utilises this to create weapons from blood, normally by increasing the density of, and crystallising, blood into a desired shape. His weapons are sharp enough to cut through flesh and bone easily. He has also shown the ability to mentally control blood in a liquid form, using several different 'blood snakes' with super dense and/or crystalline 'heads' that turn at a mental command.
- Enhanced Bite - Drako's retractable fangs and incredibly powerful jaw muscles give him a biting strength that has been compared many times to a Great White Shark. In this case, it's a hyperbole, for the shark. Drako has shown the ability to easily bite through and consume the aluminium and steel mesh that is used to construct shark cages.
- Healing Blood - Drako's blood has healing properties that gives humans an impressive regenerative healing factor temporarily after consuming his blood. The effectiveness of the healing factor and the duration of it is stated to be directly in proportion to the age of the Kresnik whom the blood belonged to. Drako states that his blood is considered to provide a 'moderate' healing factor. Given that it allows a human to heal from having almost every bone in their body broken in under an hour, it's impressive by human standards.
- Immortality - Drako is either in possession of an incredibly long life, or is entirely immortal. He has stated that he does age, however, he did not state in what manner he meant the comment, and he is known for meaning something entirely different to what most people might think when he says something.
- Enhanced Durability - Drako is incredibly durable, easily able to withstand class 100 blows without even a change of facial expression. His durability is near immeasurable, and he often allows opponents to strike him as he can often withstand attacks.
- Enhanced Regeneration - On the off chance that something does manage to hurt him, Drako's body is incredibly efficient at repairing damage done, repairing damage done from a fall from orbit in a matter of minutes. This also provides him with virtual immunity to all Earthly diseases and an endlessly regenerating muscular system that means he can exert himself without end, simply because he doesn't fatigue.
- Enhanced Senses - Drako's senses are incredibly fine tuned, and it is near impossible to sneak up on him as he can detect someone within a twenty mile radius. Of course, this does come with certain drawbacks, the most obvious one being the increased sensitivity of his sensory system.
- Flight - Drako possesses two pairs of wings, a large pair that provide lift and thrust, and a smaller pair that provide steering and direction. He can achieve hypersonic, near luminal speeds whilst in flight.
- Enhanced Strength - Drako can exert almost inconceivable strength from his muscles. He rarely utilises his full strength, but it is considered that he may have strength capable of shattering a small planet.
- Enhanced Combat - Through a combination of his incredible strength, reaction time, durability, regeneration, and other abilities, Drako is considered to be a 'one man army', capable of fending off many thousands of foes simultaneously, and even capable of taking on and defeating a dozen Krusniks single-handedly.
- Enhanced Reflexes - Due to his Krusnik physiology, Drako's reaction time is incredibly fast. He is believed to react within nano-seconds, and has the ability to easily catch or dodge bullets.
