Deep Rolling: As listed on site.
Human and Animal Servants: (Will be added later through RP)
Drugged Bite: This is a different form of vampire's bite which allows Soren to inject a venom that mimics the effects of various types of recreational drugs. He must spend several minutes concentrating on forming the effect before it can be used. Use of this bite makes him need to feed more often, and he usually does not heal as well after using it. It can not be used to mimic poisons, just common recreational drugs that Soren himself has experienced several times.
Intensity: Through touch, Soren can intensify any physical sensation that a person is already having. If they have a papercut, he can make it feel like 10 papercuts -- though they still only have the damage of one papercut. If they are being tickled, he can intensify the tickling. The physical sensation must already be there, and Soren must remain touching the person while this is being used.
Weaknesses:
Guilt - Soren carries around a lot of guilt both about not being able to save his siblings the twins, as well as having to kill his sister, Grette. It would cause him to hesitate on hurting people when he should probably fight them. The knowledge that you know what it's like to go through that hurt can cause you to not want to put someone else through that hurt. In a predatory society like vampires, this could be detrimental if found out and played upon.
Fear of Heights - Soren does not like to fly, thank you very much. People should stay on the ground, and no buildings should ever be more than three stories tall. Even climbing a ladder can cause him to get squickly.
Fear of Disease - After seeing so many people die in his homeland of the Black Plague, Soren is kind of freaky about disease. Anyone who looks sick, sneezes, has a fever, has a deformity, etc, is going to be distrusted and suspect. Even if he can't actually contract the disease, Soren is constantly worried about another plague destroying all he holds dear. This I think would manifest more as a feeding prohibition. IF someone shows any sign of illness, even if they just sneeze in his presence, he probably would not be able to feed from them for a couple weeks without throwing it up. But also, if someone figures it out, they can like...probably just cough to make him leave or recoil.
Misogynist - Soren hasn't really been able to be around women (in any more meaningful way than feeding from them) since Erzabeth died more than 600 years ago. In that time, how women have behaved has changed drastically, and Soren has not kept up with the times. This will put him at odds with liberated women.
Callous - Soren doesn't really care about anyone outside of his family, and probably will not offer aid to those who are in trouble or in pain without requiring to be paid back in some way. This is kind of a defense mechanism because he doesn't want to get close to, and lose, more people than he has to.
New Master Vampire - Soren is just mastering his abilities, particularly Intensity, and could go too far (or just not have any effect at all).
Fascinated by Silver - Silver is particularly harmful to vampires. A vampire should want to avoid it at all costs. But like a moth to a flame, Soren thinks silver is the most beautiful thing he's seen. He wants to touch it whenever it is around, and will not seek to avoid it when that would be prudent.
Bad Hearing - Soren has been around too many guns and explosions as a vampire, and because vampire senses are enhanced, it's caused his hearing to go funky. He can hear, but often has a ringing in his ears, making him easy to sneak up on from behind. Some people say it is psychological, rather than physical, but it's definitely real.
Slowed by Cold - Soren has a bit of a limp, sometimes leading him to use a walking cane. This stems from an injury which he had before he was made a vampire, when he was in training to become a knight. There are days when his leg is fine, especially in warm weather, and he can even jog and run at vampire speeds when it's warm. But snowy weather? Gonna be a problem.
Salt allergy - This is some old Romani curse put upon him when he sold weapons to the Nazis. Salt which touches his skin causes it to itch violently.
Banned By Dragons - Soren did something to a very powerful dragon once. Something nasty. (Though I am leaving what a bit murky in the hopes it could be a good RP hitch.) That dragon did something so that Soren's magic/powers will NEVER work on dragons. It just immediately fails.
RP-Hookups:
Tollemarche? Like Tollemarche Industries? Didn't they make that....augmented reality game....AI...neat drone with the lights...
He looks like he has cash. Rob him!
Your IC likes getting bitten and/or drugs.
