The Human Experience

Description

I have been running for a very long time.

Twelve thousand years ago, my mother turned me and my younger siblings into the first vampires to ever walk the Earth.

We’ve been running ever since, turning humans in to vampires everywhere we go.

We’ve created plenty of loyal warriors, but we’ve also made plenty of enemies.

But only a few are worth mention

The first were the werewolves a ten thousand years ago

There was a group of vampire hunters a thousand years before that.

Even our mother wants our heads so bad even death can’t stop her.

For the sake of my sister, we’re pretending to be humans, but it might not be worth it.

If the werewolves don’t kill us, then the hunters will.

Foreword

CAST:

Name: Song Bora

Age: over 12 thousand years old

Species: vampire

Family: younger brother and sister (Jiwook and Suji)

Personality: withdrawn. Appears to be disinterested in most things. She dislikes humans and often uses them to fit her own needs. Cares deeply about her siblings, but has manipulated them in the past to avoid them getting hurt. She can be very heartless when someone or things poses a danger to her and/or her siblings

 

Name: Song Suji

Age: over 12 thousand

Species: vampire

Family: older sister and brother (Bora and Jiwook)

Personality: very sweet. She prefers to drink from animals over humans. She really wants to be human and experience all the things humans do (growing old, going to prom, having children). Her elder siblings find it hard refusing her requests because they feel guilt over getting her turned. Her siblings do their best to keep her away from anything that could hurt her so she’s pretty innocent about the danger their enemies pose.

 

Name: Song Jiwook

Age: over 12 thousand years old

Species: vampire

Family: older sister, younger sister (Bora and Suji)

Personality: the silent and brutal sibling. He willingly kills those who try to cause pain for his family even before Bora  asks him to. His elder sister often has to limit the amount of blood he consumes because drinking too much can send him into a state of bloodlust that has historically ended with many people dead and the siblings fleeing for their lives. He would kill his own mother to protect his sisters and did so in the past. He’ll follow whatever orders Bora gives him. Noted to be the original vampire sibling with the least humanity of all.

 

Name: Song Mihyun

Age: thirty at time of death

Species: witch

Family: her three children (Bora, Jiwook, and Suji)

Personality: she was a kind, loving mother when she was alive. After the deaths of her husband and eldest three sons, she turned her remaining children into vampires making it very hard to kill them. A couple of years later, she decided that she had made a mistake and unbalanced nature, so she started trying to kill her children. Even though she has been dead for over a thousand years, she’s still trying to find a way to kill her children.

 

Name: Cha Hack Yeon – aka N

Age: 10 thousand (turned when 23)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: While he’s really a total sweetie and lots of fun to be around, he only shows that side of himself to the rest of his vampire “family.” To the rest of the world he’s a cold, calculating monster who uses his good looks and charisma to draw his victims to him. It’s believed that he’s sire bonded to Bora as he does everything she says without question. If he really is or not is up for debate. He cares for Bora a lot, worrying over her moods and if she’s drinking enough blood. While she’s the one running the show, he’s the second in command and is tasked with handling all the non-important matters that come up in day-to-day life.

 

Name: Jung Taek Woon – aka Leo

Age: 10 thousand (turned when 23)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: quiet and reserved, he gets along best with Jiwook. The others will often joke about how the two were made to be friends; Leo keeps quiet and Jiwook says nothing at all. He’s not someone to be messed with, however, because when he’s asked to fight by Bora he can be just as violent as an angry lion. He is often the one left to teach Jina about controlling her vampire instincts as he is the best at controlling himself. Turned by Bora.

 

Name: Lee Jae Hwan – aka Ken

Age: 8000 (turned when 21)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: he’s likes to goof around most of the time, but when his skills are needed he stops the jokes and becomes serious. He’s secretly very guilty about every human life he’s taken, so he will often do things to help humans as a form of repentance (anything from helping an old woman carry her bags to saving a drowning child). N and Ravi often , but the three are close friends and a strong team in a fight. The smell of blood (human, werewolf, or witch) drives him crazy, so the others have learned several ways to avoid situations where he will smell blood. He doesn’t get along well with Gayun because of her distain for human life. The pair always fight and the others have to keep them separated. If it wasn’t for their loyalty to the rest of their friends, they wouldn’t even be in the same group let alone the same country. Turned by Bora.

 

Name: Kim Won Sik – aka Ravi

Age: 5000 (turned when 20)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: he’s a sweetie and fun like N, but he’s more open about it. Unlike the others, he was not directly turned by the three original vampires. He was turned by N during a time period when the older shut off his humanity. N would have killed him had Bora not stepped in, forcing N to save the younger's life by changing him. Even with this kind of star to their relationship, the pair are very close friends and will often play pranks on the others together. He likes to have fun in his fights and will often drag out a kill so he can have more fight time.

 

Name: Lee Hong Bin – aka Hongbin

Age: 5000 (turned when 20)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: Shy and sweet. He’s one of the first vampires that Suji ever turned after finding him alone and freezing to death one cold winter’s night. His loyalty is to the group, but it’s mostly to Suji. Like N, everyone assumes that he is sire bonded to her, but it isn’t confirmed of its true or not. He has the best record of not going on humanity-less rampages after Leo having only done so twice in his five thousand years (Leo has never had such a rampage). Considered by the others to be Suji’s personal bodyguard, he’s been known to brutally destroy anyone who tries to hurt her.

 

Name: Han Sang Hyuk – aka Hyuk

Age: 1000 (turned when 18)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: he can be quiet, preferring to stand watch in the background while the others take center stage. But he can also be just as much a goof as N, Ravi, and Ken when needed to be. He’s had several rampages in his time, each more brutal and violent then the last, so the others keep a close eye on him to make sure it doesn’t happen again. He’s considered to be a great fighter when the group has to go up against werewolves or hunters as he’s great at demolishing both in record time. He enjoys watching humans going about their lives and finds it calming to see them doing simple things like getting a coffee. No one really understands why he finds this so soothing, but it works for him and they don’t question it. Turned by Ken.

 

Name: Lee Nara

Age: 4000 (18 when turned)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: very loyal to Bora. She’s genuinely loves Jiwook, but everyone thinks that it’s just her sire bond with him talking. She always does her best to win his attention and love. Will attack and kill anyone who messes with him, or his sisters. Sometimes it’s hard to control her, but thanks to her sire bond she’ll do anything Jiwook says.

 

Name: Kwon Hanbi

Age: 2000 (turned at 21)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: the goofy, fun best friend to Suji. She was very depressed as a human until the original siblings came into her life. Bora offered to turn her and she took the offer. Since then she’s become the happy, fun girl she is now. She can make even Bora and Jiwook smile with her jokes and laughter. Turned by Bora.

 

Name: Park Gayun

Age: 7000 (20 when turned)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: Bora’s best female friend. Like Bora, she is withdrawn and disinterested with day-to-day human life. She loves nothing more than watching humans suffer, either by her hand or by everyday things like huge phone bills and parking tickets. She’s not happy until something has gone wrong for someone and will get very hostile if she sees everyone having a good day. More than once she’s shut off her humanity and emotions and gone on a rampage. Because of this, the others keep a close eye on her. Turned by Bora.

 

Name: Jung Jina

Age: 100 (turned at age 16)

Species: vampire

Family: none still alive

Personality: as the youngest vampire in the “family” the other often treat her like a baby. She’s not very confident in her abilities to hide her vampire status. She often forgets about her enhanced strength and speed, making it so that the others have to cover for her a lot. She’s very shy and doesn’t talk much, even around the others. Being so new to the vampire world, the others have to explain a lot of things to her. Turned by Hyuk.

 

Name: Kim Minseok – aka Xiumin
