Name: Cashmir Bishop-Amour Valentine Jr. [For future reference, his parents were unmarried, so he took both of their surnames; he acquired the name Valentine Jr. after the latter man sired him as a vampire.]
Gender: Male. His sexuality is a question to some people, thanks to his voice and posture, but it’s clear to anyone that talks to him more than once that he’s gay.
Race: Prominently Carnaean vampire with a touch of Harpy blood, as well as dragon demon, shape shifter and a few other unidentified species; only Valentine would know what his true race is. This mixture of species give him the build and quick wit of a vampire, a rather stunning pair of angel's wings, the ability to heal himself easily, aura-shifting, the retractable claws of a cat, and a black, slightly elongated, rough tongue.
Age: Probably around ninety, in reality, but no one can honestly remember far enough back to recall his birth date. His apparent age changes day by day, but stays between about eighteen and twenty-five at all times.
Height: 5’10’’ (177 cm)
Weight: About 160lb, build and muscle considered.
Build: Cashmir is fairly muscular, though toned, has a slightly feminine look about his body. He has a slender, though not necessarily thin build.
Hair: His blond hair falls just about his shoulders, feathering out there. (It does happen to change styles quite often, though, as the situation sees fit… when he cuts it, it happens to grow back rather quickly thanks to his species.) It’s about the right length to be pulled back properly, which is how it’s usually styled when he’s working; when he’s not at work, he lets it fall. He has subtle bangs that blend into the rest of his hair.
Eyes: His eyes tend to change colours a lot, due to ever-changing auras in his surroundings. They were originally a gentle blue when he was a human, and happen to stay like that when the aura of the room is neutral. They’re usually lined with a touch of smoky eyeliner, highlighting whatever colour they happen to be.
Complexion: Because of the dominance of vampiric blood flowing through his veins, his skin stays a quite pale colour most of the time. After hunting or any other strenuous physical activity, a slightly more healthy-looking colour comes to his complexion. When this happens, it can stay that way for days on end, so most of the time his skin colour looks almost human. The sunlight doesn’t affect him like it would a full vampire; the Harpy genes that he possesses allow his skin to heal itself before it burns.
Unique Markings/Other: Thanks to his vampiric nature, his heart only beats after extensive physical activity; this just defines the fact that yes, he’s undead… His entire body is marred with hundreds of scars; some being large and more noticeable, some small and invisible to the human eye. Either way, they cross his body in an array of patterns, changing every day as time goes by. They have a tendency to heal quickly, most of the time, but some of them will be permanently etched across his skin. Some of the more prominent ones are across his shoulders, abdomen and throat. They stand out the most when he’s in the sunlight, showing themselves off like they’re something to be proud of.
Along with these scars, he has quite a few tattoos; these include the black Latin text “amor caecus est” across his shoulder-blades, translating to “love is blind” in English, and black tiger stripes up the sides of his stomach. He has an etching of a simple black heart at the center of his neck, which fills itself with gradient colour as the aura in the room changes. This heart also happens to state certain phrases in black text, though obviously this is rarely noticed as it’s covered up by his hair unless he’s meaning to show it off.
He has a number of piercings, the ones he keeps in most being the five (yes, five) piercings in his tongue, two of which are vertical bars, as well as the rings in the cartilage of his ear.
On the subject of his tongue, as stated before, it’s a dark, nearly black slate-blue colour with a tint of purple (it looks black from a distance, but if you get close enough it's clear that it's tinted closer to purple), along with being forked and rough like a cat’s; this is one of the truly inhuman features that he possesses.
He usually just re-pierces whatever he wishes to be pierced rather than keep the holes in his skin all the time; this is because his body heals far too quickly to have any proper piercings, as they close up as soon as the jewelry is removed. He usually has his nails painted in bright neon colours, almost as if to show them off.
Usual Clothing: When he’s working, his outfit usually consists of a simple suit; black jacket, tie, and pants, along with a white shirt. (Naturally, his white shirt is usually spattered with a bit of not-so-innocently-shed blood.) This is complimented by black fingerless gloves, a gun holster most likely at his right hip, thin rose-tinted sunglasses, and classic combat boots.
In the case that he’s not off at work, he mainly dresses in casual wear; tight t-shirts layered with longer ones, along with formfitting jeans and steel-toed boots… in other words, whatever he decides to put on whenever he rolls out of bed in the morning.
As for when he’s sleeping, he would most likely strip down to his boxers and a random t-shirt.
As stated before, he has a tendency to wear quite a lot of jewelry: usually just body jewelry, though, mainly silver, as well as a silver Satanic rosary tucked into his pocket. (This will be explained later on, and doesn’t reflect his beliefs in any way.)
Possible Forms: Thanks to the rather unpredictable nature of Cashmir’s breed, he is capable of quite a few forms. Of course, the one that he chooses to possess the most is the vampiric man that I’ve described above. (This form may or may not possess either blond seal-pointed wolf's ears, as well as optional black wings; like a bird's wings, they're covered in fluffy feathers and spread from his shoulderblades; he can shift them back into his shoulders at will) He tends to be the most comfortable in this form, because it’s the closest to human that he can shift himself to. Apart from this form, he has the ability to shift his spirit into whatever mood the aura of the room brings. The two most common bodies that this allows him happen to be the wyvern and the wolf.
The wyvern is a rather small subspecies of the common dragon, only reaching about a foot at the shoulder. They’re small, slender and agile, giving them a rather cattish appearance. His wyvern form’s colours and markings change from day to day, but his scales usually stay in greyscale. The markings he possesses the most frequently reflect those of his true form; the tattoos and the aura-fluctuated heart on his neck. Another unique thing about this form is that unlike others of the species, he keeps his retractable claws, just even more so defining the feline aspect. Again, something you wouldn’t see in most other specimens of this breed: he has a long, feathery black mane reaching like a skunk stripe from his head to the tip of his tail. It usually hangs in his face, working as fringe and giving him a rather curious look. Naturally, this is only a decoy; he has fast-working venom hidden within his razor-sharp, inch long fangs, giving a little bit of a bite to him… literally.
The wolf form that he possesses tends to be a male with a lank, thin build, only reaching about two and a half feet at the shoulder. The base of his fur is a sandy blonde colour, highlighted with brown. His ears, front hair fringe and paws are pointed with black, as well as his entire underside (from his lower muzzle to the tip of his tail) being black. The familiar tiger stripes from his true form reach halfway up his back His eyes remain the same piercing blue that they were before he was converted to vampirism, when he takes over this form. Like his wyvern form, this wolf tends to keep the same markings as he does in his true form, along with the catlike retractable claws. When he takes this form, the rosary that he usually keeps tucked about his pocket has a way of falling loosely around his neck, hiding itself in his fur. His fur is quite a bit longer than the normal timber wolf’s, allowing the black part of his fringe to hang just to the center of his nose.

Name: Toshiro Kaito Glass (by adoption, his true surname is Bishop-Serenade; he’s Cashmir’s half-brother)
Gender: Male; his sexuality is uncertain, at this point, though he’s shown interest in both men and women in the past. Lately, his preference has been proving towards men, though…
Race: His blood contains a mixture of several different species; different types of vampire, bloodkin, demons and even some human blood runs through his veins. He doesn’t show many specific traits for any species, though he has slightly pointed fangs and brighter eyes than the usual.
Age: In reality, he’s only about sixteen years old… thanks to the hardships he’s conquered in his life, he’s quite a lot more mature, mentally speaking, though, and considering his build, his age is always disregarded.
Weight: Around 160 pounds (72.5 kg)
Build: Stands about six foot two… just enough to let him tower over almost anyone that crosses his path. He’s rather muscular, though due to the fact he’s only sixteen, he’s got quite an awkward build, stuck somewhere in between teenager and adult.
Hair: Extremely dark brown, bordering black, with lighter highlights on the bottom layers; is layered and cut just above his shoulders, including bangs that blend in to the rest of his hair, ending just below his eyebrows, therefore falling in his eyes- They do tend to obscure his vision, most of the time, but he’s learned to live with it.
Eyes: His eyes are a piercing light grey colour; almost white, in some areas of the iris, but are close to black in others. They have a very deep perspective to them, and it would be impossible for someone to know what they truly looked like from far away; every single fleck and shade is unique. He wears just the slightest amount of black liner around them to emphasize the colour.
Complexion: He has a rather tan shade of skin, surprisingly, considering the heavy amount of vampiric blood that runs through his veins; his mother was Native American, however, and it shows easily. He flushes, tans and sunburns quite a bit more easily than usual, as well, thanks to this.
Unique Markings/Other: There’s not many scars or the sort that taint his body, other than the occasional minor one (and hundreds of tiny puncture wounds that stand out against his arms); he’s had quite a smooth life, physically speaking, that is; emotionally is a different story entirely. However, he has a thin black bar code tattooed on the outer cartilage of his left ear; this was to distinguish him from his brothers while he was at the lab. This can’t be seen unless you’re specifically looking for it; he lets his hair fall over it most of the time. This is the only tattoo that he possesses, for the time being. As far as piercings go, he has the bridge of his nose pierced once, but that’s it, for now.
Usual Clothing: He’s not one to care about his appearance, for the most part; if he can find it tossed onto his bedroom floor, he’ll wear it. This usually consists of basic-coloured button up shirts and casual jeans, but can be whatever you can possibly think of, really… it all depends what he’s in the mood for.
Possible Forms: Thanks to the wide variety of species that dwell in his body (as well as being trained mentally by Valentine), he has the ability to shift into a number of forms… of course, the nearly human form aforementioned is the one that he decides to take on most frequently. His true being is much closer to his adoptive father’s; thanks to the genetics that have been forced into his blood, the man is reminiscent of a Centaur. His happens to be a very dark brown, almost black, mocking his hair colour in the human form; the only thing that sets this form apart from a true Centaur is the spindling black antlers. Along with this, he possesses a lanky wolf form (which is also the same colour as his hair); he chooses not to take on these forms, for the most part, simply because he’s uncomfortable in them.

More to be added as soon as I work up the muse to actually write 'em.
