Luke Laque
91 BC- 46 BC
The Becoming
Born in the Roman Calendar month of Sextilis, also know as Agustus on the fifth
day was Lucas Agustus Laquatus. Born the son of a Legionnaire, he was wrapped in the role at his birth, Born a Legionnaire, Live a Legionnaire, Die a Legionnaire. Shortly after his birth, his father died in a social uprising in Rome this occurred around 91 BC.
Lucas was raised by his mother and father's brother to follow in his family's footsteps. Lucas was well suited for this role, and soon became one of the best in his Emperor's army. During a night of sentry duty, Lucas was lured from his post by a female. Beckoning him with promises of pleasures he had never experienced, she took him into the woods. Her word was true, her body was the purest alabaster in color, and her eyes almost looked as if they glowed in the darkness, she bed him there in the forest. After five hours of what was complete rapture, she took him as her own. He awoke in a hillside cave, a hunger twisting in the bowels of his being. She was there, standing over another woman which was lying unconscious at her feet. The one he remembered the face to, drew a dagger from her tattered coverings, then swiped the blade across the still one's neck. The blood flowed, and Lucas responded.
The woman, known to Lucas only as Sierra, taught him what he needed to survive, that and a few other tricks of what she called their clan. She would spend hours with Lucas just watching the people (or sheep as she called them) pass through the city of Rome. During their time together she taught Lucas what he know was and others of their kind in the other clans, as well as the beast that each of them shared, of which Lucas had an especial affinity with.
Sierra and Lucas even followed Caesar to Alexandria, where in the great city's library, Lucas took several scrolls that he found useful, then set fire to the rest. The burning of the Library of Alexandria was of course blamed on Caesar. Lucas even observed Caesar in his residence when, after the battle of Zela, he wrote down and sent home those three words that will forever be part of history, Veni, vidi, vici? I came, I saw, I conquered, which after that day, he took to heart. Fourteen years after his embrace, the night after Caesar is appointed Emperor of Rome, Lucas woke to find his sire gone.
