(Oh, ha! Thanks! I'll fix that!)
He should have perfect pitch. And he should crack his knuckles when he's bored.
He's in need of two redeeming qualities.
He should be really seductive and charismatic. and he should a good teacher. Like, not professionally, but is good at instructing people.
I'm going to update his profile!

Yay for perfect pitch! *smiles*

But then again, vampires already have really good hearing...would all vampires have perfect pitch or would that be lame?
I've decided he likes Dolly Parton. That's kind of a quirk, for him at least.
Mod
Lame. I mean, they'd hear if a note was played/sang wrong, but they shouldn't ALL be able to sing the notes perfectly.
No, not sing the notes, but if they heard a note, they'd know exactly which one it was. Isn't that right, Maxy?

Perfect pitch isn't a matter of hearing; it has to do with a certain part of your brain. People with perfect pitch have a 40% larger frontal lobe or something like that. But it's not the frontal lobe. I only know this because my sister was reading some brain book and kept spouting random information about it. =]

Oh...Okay...that helps...I think...but they're brains are all awesome too...
DAAAAAAGH. They don't all have it.

Redeeming qualities! Quirks! Maybe a little more about his past!
Has a mysterious bracelet or other article of clothing that he always wears
Good at manipulating emotions or cheering people up
Likes elaborate parties
Knows a ton about history, science, or something like that. As in, even more than a guy as old as him would know.

Your pastor must be better than me, because I can sing off-tune as much as I want. Baha. Most of the time it's on purpose, but sometimes it's because my voice isn't very developed yet.

I don't like that one either, haha.
Well, good. At least we agree on that ;)
The dude needs a nervous tick. Like, really. No nail-biting, please.
Sure...even though vamps don't really have any phlegm. yah. Maybe I'll use that one.
Should he crack his knuckles?

I didn't think about the phlegm thing. Hmm.
Sure. He could also scratch himself. "Don't feel the need to avoid eye contact, cough, or scratch yourself. You are still firmly a man."

Or people tapping their fingers against the table.
I hate small talk...sort of...
I hate it when I'm trying to concentrate on something. I'm like "Shut up already!"
Maybe he can't focus when there's sound in the backround?
All of those are great! Thanks!
Name: Mick Roselli
Birthname: Alessandro Dell Osso (I will refer to him as "Alessandro".)
Gender: Male
Age: 216 (Turned when he was 21)
Species: Blood-Drinker
Personality: If you've read Fablehaven and you remember who Nero is, just know that this guy is Nero with a sense of humor and an Italian accent. For those of you who don't know Nero, Alessandro is extremely miserly and has a violent temper. He feels guilty for a lot of his past mistakes; thinks of humans the same way we usually think of chickens; is a little obsessed with his signature; is vain and a bit of a narcissist. He's also seductive and charismatic and is good at instructing people.
Appearance: Red-violet eyes; olive skin tone; wavey black hair that's a little long; normal-sized lips and mouth (well, come on, with that name...>_<); 6'1"; muscular; angular facial features; has his mother's hands.
Past: Born in Venice, Italy in 1794; his family was very wealthy; was captured by an anti-vampire organization in 1967, but he escaped two weeks later; during the 1920s he was kind of the vampire version of Al Capone and was also involved with a rather murderous and violent group of vampires with Martin Ferguson (who Turned him); He now owns a small Ferrari dealership in New York.
Likes: Ferraris, blood type A-negative, movies, reading (he has a gargantuine personal library), crossword puzzles, the color maroon, Coldplay, nice clothes, beautiful women, baseball, fine art, 80s music, and cardgames.
Dislikes: Children, wasting time, messy/dirty things, Mind-Stealers (another species of vampire), Humans Against Vampiric Creatures (HAVC, which is the organization that captured him and at least 100 others), the smell of garlic, and American cars.
What I need help with: He needs quirks and redeeming qualities, but I'm open to ideas about anything!
