Count Orlok
Height: 6.5 feet (?)
Mass: Not Available
Running Speed: Moderate
Powers:
- Blackout: When Count Orlok Feeds, the victim rarely remembers the attack and often blacks out before feeding begins
- Vampire Fangs: Count Orlok’s fangs are designed to drain blood with minimal penetration. The marks left behind can easily be dismissed as mosquito bites. Regardless, they can still be used to drain blood effectively.
- Plague: Through feeding on victims and through his rats, Count Orlok spreads sickness on his victims and in the area around him.
- Telekinetic Effect: Count Orlok has an ability to move objects through a force of will. The weight limit appears to be a few hundred pounds. He is shown closing castle gates, open and close doors, sealing coffin lids and rising without assistance.
- Phase: Count Orlok can fade from visual sight slightly and pass through doors and objects like a ghost. He can also appear as a spectral form for brief periods in shadow near his coffin if he so chooses.
- Animal Command: When needed, Count Orlok can command animals. Primarily, this extends to the rats that follow him wherever he goes, but can also be used on horses.
- Black Magic: Count Orlok can apparently use Black Magic to dominate and enslave the minds of others. Using magic circles on documents, the reader becomes a thrall to the vampire.
Weaknesses: Count Orlok must rest during the day in a coffin lined with damned soil ‘From the Fields of Death.’ He can also be tempted to stay into the daylight, ignoring the crows of a rooster, by a sinless maiden who sacrifices herself to him. The sunlight itself is capable of reducing Count Orlok to ash.
First Appearance: Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922)
Human Kills: 18
Fight Record: None
Home World: Earth
Origin: Transylvania
Type: Supernatural
History: Deep in the mountains of Transylvania, dwelt the vampire Count Graff Orlok! His land was one of shadows and curses, roamed by dark spirits and werewolves. The people of the nearby village had instinctively feared the castle he dwelt in and their superstitions kept him largely at bay. Growing hungry for new blood, Orlok conspired to move to the small town of Wisborg, Germany from his home in Transylvania. Sending a cursed summons to a relater named Knock, he had a relater named Hutter sent to Transylvania.
After making the deal and feeding on him, Orlok mailed himself to Wisborg from the ports of Varna and Galar. However, Orlok’s hunger cannot wait, spreading his plague through those port towns. Once the ship was at sea, only one food source remained for the vampire. One by one, he drained the crewmen of their blood, until only the captain and his first mate were left alive. The first mate suspected something is wrong with Orlok’s coffin and tried to attack it, rousing the vampire. The man was so taken with fright that he jumped overboard and drowned!
Not knowing what else to do, the vampire tied himself to the wheel in a desperate bid to stay the course, but this only aided the vampire’s mission and did nothing to protect him from the ravenous hunger of the beast. The ship arrived in Wisborg’s port with only the dead aboard. Orlok departed in the night, taking up his new residence in an abandoned, dilapidated home across the street from Hutter’s own cozy abode.
Orlok now had a buffet of victims to sustain his un-life. The feedings decimated everything in his path until Hutter’s wife Ellen, read a book on vampires Hutter had accidentally picked up while in Transylvania. There she read how the vampire can be destroyed and sacrificed herself as bait to lure the creature into staying out of his coffin until sunrise, which instantly turned the monster to ashes.
