Vilrec Langlifr

All Information is Considered Out-of-Character

Personal Information

Appearance

Vilrec always wears practical clothing that is comfortable and reliable. Lately has been seen wearing furs and a black cloak.

Personality

Vilrec is quiet and considered. Yet it is apparent that behind those red eyes he is calculating and vicious. He is often polite and well spoken, although keeps the savage 'rough around the edges' appearance and mannerisms.

In recent nights Vilrec has seemed more detached and yet more determined. A sense of suppressed savagery surrounds him.

Mortal World

There are very few left that remember what the world was like back then. Vilrec is sure they wont talk either.

Quotes

Said About Vilrec

• "My Sire's great enemy is...a singularly compelling individual, and the closest thing I have to a contemporary. He soon became my adversary, also, and not simply by extension - it is deeply personal. All my Requiem, we have struggled, back and forth, tables always turning. In every battle, we find each other, drawn together by some perverse magnetism. He is an elemental force; my respect is too great to sustain hatred, but it does not challenge my duty - and, in truth, that duty adds interest to my existence. He is beautiful, like a forest fire, and, like a forest fire, he must be contained. That is our purpose, to restrain and restrict him. Perhaps it is that we need him to define us; we know ourselves best, standing next to that blaze. All hail Vilrec Langlifr...may he live forever."

- an uncharacteristically fire-eyed Batavia, in response to a question.

• "He is the first of us in this land, with both the respect and burdens that entails. If he says kill, you die. Its that simple."

- Aksel Vinter

• A look is shared across the room between sire and childe as she speaks to a member of the Toowoomba Court.
  

"Excuse me, but my sire wants me."
"How do you know? He's on the other side of the room."
"I do not need words when I have shared centuries with him."

- Berengaria Lange

• "You want to know about Vilrec Langlifr, my grandsire and Alder of the Valdyr? He is without a doubt the mightiest of us. The stories told of his exploits are legend and I tell you that my sire and siblings and all others are right to hold him in awe. I have known him my entire requiem, and though I could tell you the House's legends at length I would rather tell you what I have seen. I have seen my grandsire stand back and quietly let a newly embraced soldier find his purpose in war again, thereby earning the respect of his family; I have seen my grandsire carve bloody swathes through the Brood in perfect execution of guerilla tactics, tearing them down with invigorating ferocity; I have seen my grandsire leading the family and making judgements with wisdom and absolute confidence. You want to know about Vilrec Langlifr, my grandsire and Alder of the Valdyr? Know that he is a warrior without peer and a commander without rival. The Valdyr would follow him into Hell and I assure you that when we returned from that glorious war he'd still be leading us and he'd be wearing the Devil's skin as a cloak."

- Adrian Dansk, enlightening the curious about his grandsire (c. 2000).

• "I may be flawed, and I may not be ideal. But until he says my duty is done, I'm here to stay. I won't bother explaining anymore than that - because your loyalties are torn, and as a result you'll never actually understand."

- Anthony Desmond

• "How do you know Vilrec?", "It is Vilrec....."

- Teresa Tarcare, responding to other vampires on her relationship with Vilrec.

• "No. I will not speak on this subject."

- Lothar

• "War is, and forever has been in his best interests."

- Esteban Cortes

• "Now little miss, this monstrous looking piece of work is Vilrec, and if you're not scared, go and ask your sire about the Night of the Red Mist."

- Jonas Boswell, having some fun with an impudent neonate.

• "He scares the tar outta me. But that don't mean he gets to define me."

- Connie Gambrell

• "He has been unkind, but not unfair to me. Of the many things that haunt me to my sleep, his anger is one of the worst, but I understand- He is Gangrel, as am I. Goodbye, jaddi. I hope, one day, you won't be angry with me anymore."

- Fatimah al-Mu'allima

• "Peace time made not by formal contract and accord, but by the dead has had the most troublesome effect on Vinr Alder Vilrec Anu-Atli Langlifr. The pack leader is now the lone wolf - a shadow of a memory of the ghost of a warrior that may have been. Left only to endure and bear witness to world he was long severed from and I wished for war."

- Esteban Cortes, July 2015.

Said By Vilrec

• "My childe, you have become everything I expected of him and more."
  
• "When I was still alive I lost my wife and children, it cost me my life. When I was a young Kindred I lost my first Childe, it cost me part of my soul. Now that I walk this 3rd life, for my sake, please don't disappear."

- Vilrec Langlifr to his childe Berengaria Lange

• "If you ask me about her again... I swear to you. I will tell you everything she's done, everything she represents and confirm every story you've ever heard. It will leave begging every Lord you know to help you forget. And that's only what I "remember" of the past 400 years. You want the truth about Batavia, go ask her yourself!"
  

- Vilrec Langlifr when asked about Batavia repeatedly by younger Valdyr

• "Charles the Little.... He is an inspiration, his name is a good training tool for forming English words. I think I'll name my squirrel after him. It gives me an excuse to keep saying the name."

- Vilrec Langlifr talking about Charles Volmark
