🩸 Brief about the history of the Virellan family:

The family was born from betrayal and slaughter, not from marriage and alliance. On the night the first pacts among vampires were broken, the first Virellan cut the throat of his master and drank his blood to the last drop.

They do not carry royal blood... but created a throne from the bodies of kings. They rose by violence, not honor. A lineage that did not inherit glory but snatched it from between the fangs.

“Blood is written with blood” — their motto for centuries. Any betrayal is met with slaughter, any threat is exterminated to the root. Whoever challenges Virellan... is not buried but forgotten.

Their name is forbidden in some ancient councils. It is said their letters anger spirits, and some clans vanished just by mentioning it.

It is said the curse of the first parent runs in their blood. And in every generation, only five are born, no more... five sons, each representing a different face of death.

--- Note: Events are not overly detailed, but dark emotions are strongly present.
