It was late in the day. Altair had tried to stay out of the public eye since his awakening. And the sun lowered in the sky as the day started to look to its end, in a few hours. Of course this also meant it was still bright enough out, he rather say here in the shadows of the trees. However hundreds of years without meals made him weaker then he’d thought, the second week of feeding off of animals and unlucky travelers and bandits, had given him back enough strength for now but still not at his full, nor wished to be state of power.
Leaning under a tree with a dark cloak around him, that shrouded his whole body, a loose hood pulled up over his head, that only let a few locks of dark hair fall around his face hiding it even more so. The shadows of trees helped but he suddenly found himself growing weaker again. It felt pathetic. He had the perfect catch a while ago and should have partaken of it, but something stopped him, for some reason he let the woman go. And now he was paying for that. He wished to be back at full power, and back to where he was able to at least walk though town.
He closed his eyes and listened to the sounds of nature. A few birds chirped, and bugged buzzed past. But also he heard the sound of foot steps a bit further down the road. His red eyes gleamed with some hope as he slipped further back into the shadows. He looked out seeing someone approaching, walking down the road, they seemed to be alone. Good. He most likely wouldn’t kill them, but truth be known he felt like he was dieing out here. And he needed this before he did give into his blood thirst. As the stranger walked past him, he slipped out of the trees without a sound, approaching the person from behind. He quickly pulled one arm around them to grab their wrist, and loc it around their other side, holding them tightly to him, his other hand was even quicker to have his long pointed nails to the stranger’s throat. Hot breath on their neck.
“don’t do anything brash….” he warned in a cool toneless voice. He’d already made sure no one else was around, other then the animals, this person would not soon forget this encounter. He slowly and carefully pulled the stranger back into the shadows of the trees. Glancing back over the road again he looked back upon his……..catch.
<I made this post Open, so people can Roleplay the ‘catch’, if you don’t mind my godmoding, OR you may RP someone walking up to stumble upon them. Either is fine.>
