Overview
Alias(es):
Nick; Numerous online handles
Real Name: Nicholas Clemente
Apparent Age: ~30
Concept: Morgellons-infested Deep Web conspiracy hacker
Physical description: Nick is a thin, pale man in his early 30's, with a constantly nervous presence. His short, dark brown hair is usually mussed and his face is unshaven. He seems constantly twitchy and exhausted, with dark bags under his eyes and sunken, hollow cheeks. His pale skin shows he rarely saw the sun, even in life, though there's still a faint blush of health to him. The skin of his body is lightly scarred and pockmarked from decades of scratching, itching, and picking at the parasites he is sure writhe inside of him. His brown eyes dart feverishly from one place to another, always anxious; in the rare moments he's calm they seem unusually kind.

Character Information
Known History
Nick showed up out of nowhere in Hartford, CT, in October of 2016, claiming to be newly "turned into a vampire." Supposedly having found out about vampires on the Internet, he claims that he asked someone on Reddit to Embrace him in a desperate attempt to cure his out-of-control Morgellons disease. Though no one could determine who had actually Embraced Nick, he was placed under Accounting and adopted into the Hartford Domain.
After just a few months, Prince Quentin King III of New Britain Acknowledged the young neonate as a political middle finger to Hartford's Prince Gold. Since then, Nick has been endeavoring his best to help the Domain where he can.

"Look, if you access certain parts of the Dark Web you can find a number of predictive algorithms that can basically tell you anything you want to know: past, present, or future. It's just a matter of taking that predictive knowledge and extrapolating possibilities from the infinite wash of time and space. I mean... it's practically Google; I don't understand why everyone thinks this is so hard."
