Father’s vampiric entity of Greek descent

Height from enhancement by Icarus: 8'7” / 103 inches / 2.61 meters tall.
Weight from enhancement by Icarus: Approximately 820 lbs. / 372 kg
Height without Icarus: 6'6" / 78 inches / 1.98 meters tall
Weight without Icarus: Approximately 265 lbs. / 120 kg
Hair: Darkest Brown
Eyes: Ocean blue when calm. The rage of Icarus burns a deep crimson within his eyes when RoD is agitated.

Strengths:
• Large size and great strength due to the release of Icarus, a demonic Entity he was born with. In his normal form, Rodargo can lift approximately 12 tons when calm. However, in the Icarus state, it is currently unknown of his entire potential of brute strength when enraged.
• Very strong science proficiency within the fields of biochemistry, botany, genetics, and viral pathogenesis. This stems from his undying interest with studying how the energy of life works and can be manipulated. His work these nights is highly involved in genetic engineering of various blooms and botanical oils to serve various purposes. However, Rodargo is usually reserved with this side of himself as the size, strength, and eating habits are commonly what garners the attention from his peers.
• Immune to sunlight. His über metabolism is able to repair the damaging effects of UV light at a highly-efficient rate. (e.g. Rodargo is a human/vampire/demon hybrid)
• Cool, calm, and soft-spoken even during times of high stress and duress. Manners are imperative.
• Shadow walking. During his early years, Rodargo gradually gained the ability to transfer his entire physical form into the absence of light. A trick which he gained over many years of strengthening his mind and concentration. Now his preferred method of travel, Rodargo can transfer himself vast distances in very short periods of time.

Weaknesses:
• Liz Summers. Rodargo is madly, crazy in love with his wife. He is also "slightly" over-protective of her. The mere thought of his wife being harmed, even in the slightest way, sends his calm demeanor into a balistic rage. Something he has struggled with controlling, although he has made gradual progress over the years.
• Blood and food. Rodargo, in his demonic state, is a voracious eater and must consume massive portions of both blood and human food to maintain his über metabolism. Even actual humanoid figures are no exception. Now that he has been able to control his appetite against Icarus, in his normal form Rodargo prefers only liquid diets of various energy; primarily blood and blended smoothies containing various botanicals and supplements which help keep him in peak physical condition.
• Holy water and garlic materials do exhibit painful effects over Rodargo, regardless of what form he is in.
• Rodargo is unconditionally polite to women…to a fault. Even during moments Rodargo would like to be blunt and stand up for himself against the female variety, Rodargo is overtaken with mannerisms for what he refers to as "lady Creatures".


Weapon of Choice: His bare hands

Fighting Proficiencies: Straight hand-to-hand combat. RoD enjoys using his bare hands to smash vials of Holy Water or shots of Garlic Spray upon his victims of the vampiric variety. Although he himself suffers bloodloss from this style of combat, he ultimately savors the feel of raw pain. This reminds him of being more alive than dead.

• Due to his large size, Rodargo has never required any need for learning many of the more intricate forms of hand-to-hand combat (i.e., martial arts) His brute strength with Icarus has, on most occasions, allowed him free reign upon his victims, both human and vampire.
  

Hand-held power weapons; primarily dual sawed-off shotguns or high-caliber handguns. When the mood strikes him to be pleasantly violent, RoD prefers using a custom-made Model 500 set of revolvers using 0.500 Magnum caliber rounds.

Rodargo entered the City in October 03, 2003.

Liz Summers and Rodargo have been bound as eternal companions since the 5th of December, 2008.
