Yū Mizushima
Personal Information
Yu was born in a time and place where quiet service was a way of life, particularly in a household with a loud, dominant father and older brother. His desires are often small, and rather quiet, but often such small keys open such big doors. The whole village he lived in until his embrace was outcast, even from the rest of society. His embrace by a Nosferatu didn't change that much. Remaining in Japan for many years, he finally travelled during the War. He ended up in Germany, and after some time was inducted into the Lancea Sanctum. During his induction something broke, and the light in his eyes went out. Since then he has been a fastidious and loyal manservant to many, with 'adventures' happening around him. He turned up in Brisbane a few years back, and joined the local Nosferatu. He is now Keeper of the Necropolis
Appearance
Yū is quiet, and wears a lot of black. For those who've known him closer, the clothes are taken from corpses, but thereafter kept immaculately clean. When you can see his face, the skin is tight and pale, looking like it's stretched to thin and tight across his skull. He usually wears gloves as again the skin is dry and tight, showing every bone and tendon.
Personality
Submissive, unassuming, and talented at trading information. Fiercely honourable, and incredibly fearsome when riled to physical action.
Mortal World
Interactions with the Yakuza and underworld businesses. Mortals that do notice him can sometimes tell he's not exactly 'alive'. He has been seeking his roots in recent nights, searching for what exists of Japanese Culture here.
