Oh, I am sorry. Welcome in my home.
Well, yes, you see right. I am NO vampire. I am a werebat. You don't know the difference? Your problem.
đŚ Core Personality Traits
Blunt & Witty: Bast doesnât sugarcoat her opinions. Sheâs quick with a sarcastic jab and has zero tolerance for nonsense. If you assume she drinks blood, expect a deadpan response like, âOnly if you're made of mango smoothie and bad decisions.â
Independent: Bast thrives alone. She's used to navigating the skyways above the city solo, and though she has a few close friends, she avoids crowds and hates being micromanaged.
Proud (to a fault): Bast has a chip on her shoulder about being a werebat â a rare species â and is sick of being lumped in with vampires. Her pride means she sometimes overreacts or takes things personally, especially when people donât bother to learn the difference.
Loyal & Protective: If you break through her tough outer shell, youâll find someone fiercely loyal. She keeps her circle small, but sheâd drop from the sky for the people she loves.
Secretly Curious: Though she pretends sheâs above most things, Bast has a fascination with obscure magical tech and folklore. Her apartment is cluttered with ancient tomes, neon-glowing gadgets, and half-finished experiments.
đŚ Quirks & Habits
Eats upside-down when at home â hanging from a reinforced bar in her ceiling. She says food tastes better that way.
Carries echolocation-enhanced earbuds, which double as music players and help her navigate tight aerial corridors.
Keeps a âStupid Vampire Mythsâ notebook to document the ridiculous things people assume about her. (e.g., âAsked if I sleep in a coffin. Again.â)
Refuses to wear black capes â sheâll die before she feeds that stereotype.
đ Species-Like Abilities (Werebat)
đ Shapeshifting (Human <â> Hybrid <â> Full Bat Form)
Human Form: Appears fully human, with enhanced hearing and night vision subtly active.
Hybrid Form (Bast's favorite): A humanoid form with bat wings, claws, sharp ears, and fangs (though she hates that people assume she uses them like a vampire).
Full Bat Form: Small bat form for stealth or escape â used rarely by Bast, as she finds it awkward and weak.
đ§ Echomagic
Werebats channel their echolocation into magical constructs:
Sonic Mapping: Can generate a mental 3D map of an area using clicks and vibrations, even in pitch black or through walls.
Sound Pulse: Emits concussive or disorienting sonic bursts to stun or confuse enemies.
Echo Cloak: Bends sound around themselves, muffling movement â a form of auditory invisibility.
đ Nocturnal Affinity
Peak energy and magical performance at night.
Enhanced stealth, speed, and strength under moonlight.
Immune to magical sleep, illusion, and fear effects that rely on sight or light.
𦴠Physical Enhancements
Lightweight, hollow-bone skeletal structure allows for agility and rapid flight in hybrid form.
Highly flexible joints and claws that help with perching, climbing, and aerial combat.
đŚ Personal Abilities
⥠Urban Flight Mastery
âThe sky isnât free. Itâs full of wires, towers, and idiots in hovercars.â
Bast is an elite flier through complex environments â power lines, rooftops, and magical skylanes. Sheâs developed:
Advanced Aerial Acrobatics: Rolls, dives, tight turns â she can literally thread the needle between city towers.
Magical Wind-Jumping Boots (Tech-enhanced): Give her a mid-air boost or allow fast vertical launches.
đś Resonance Magic (Signature Sound Magic)
Bast blends echolocation with modern magical tech, creating resonance spells:
Sonic Blade: Sharpens a burst of sound into a cutting force â silent but deadly.
Pulse Beacon: Drops a âsonic flareâ in an area â blinds magical senses and disorients enemies.
Echo Memory: Can "listen" to residual sound echoes in an area to recreate past conversations or detect disturbances (kind of like magical audio forensics).
đ§ Sound Gear Integration (Magitech Hybrid)
Bast wears enchanted earbuds and a wristband device linked to magical frequencies:
Tune-to-Spells: Certain songs or sounds trigger unique spell patterns.
Frequency Shield: Cancels out harmful sound-based magic (siren songs, banshee wails, etc.).
Personal Echo ID: She can identify any creature sheâs âmappedâ once, even through walls.
đ§Ź Resistance to Mind Control / Hypnosis
âTry getting into my head and youâll just hear feedback.â
Due to her constant use of sound-based magic and naturally strong willpower, sheâs:
Resistant to vampiric charm, illusions, and suggestion spells.
Especially immune to light-based mind-affecting magic (e.g. glamour, dazzle, fear).
đŚ Weaknesses & Limits
Sunlight Sensitivity: Not deadly like a vampireâs, but she becomes sluggish, irritable, and her magic is harder to focus. She wears dark goggles if she must be out during the day.
Sound Overload: Her enhanced hearing is a double-edged sword. Sonic attacks, screeching feedback, or magically amplified noise can incapacitate her.
Territorial Pride: She hates being challenged in âherâ skyways and will sometimes take reckless risks to prove herself.
Blood-related Magic Aversion: While sheâs not a vampire, spells that require or manipulate blood make her deeply uncomfortable and throw off her focus.
Bast Silverwing comes from a hidden lineage: the werebats, a nocturnal shapeshifter species so rare that most think theyâre a myth⌠or just confuse them with vampires.
đ The Nocturne Lineage
Bast was born to a secretive family of werebats known as the Silverwing Line â an ancient, dwindling bloodline who once served as night scouts, couriers, and sound-mages in the magical worldâs early conflicts.
Unlike werewolves, whose power came from strength and pack unity, werebats drew power from echo magic, stealth, and the unseen currents of the night.
Her parents, Kael and Mira Silverwing, were part of an underground resistance during the Techno-Magical Reformation â a time when magical creatures fought for civil rights as the world integrated with human technology. They used their sound-based magic to carry secret messages, hack into arcane networks, and evade detection in the skyways of Neo-Nocturne City.
By the time Bast was born, the Silverwing line was nearly extinct, and her parents had retired into hiding in the cityâs crumbling Skytrack District, an aerial ghetto of magical outcasts and broken ley lines.
𩸠The Turning Point
Like most werefolk, Bastâs powers didnât awaken until adolescence â but her first shift came early, triggered by trauma.
At age 13, while walking home from school, Bast and her mother were attacked by a rogue group of vampire supremacists who believed non-vampire nocturnals were âpretenders.â Mira tried to protect her daughter, but the fight pushed Bast over the edge â her first transformation burst out violently, with her echolocation shattering nearby windows and the attackersâ minds alike.
She saved her mother â but the damage was done. The event was caught on a magical surveillance drone, and the footage went semi-viral on underground networks. The media didnât care that she wasnât a vampire â the headlines just screamed âBLOODTHIRSTY BAT GIRL?â
Her life changed overnight.
đŚ The Isolation Years
The public mistook her for a vampire or cursed hybrid. Kids mocked her. Adults avoided her. Some even hired vampire hunters, thinking she was undead.
Even worse, the magical authorities offered her a spot in a âcontainment schoolâ for âunstable magical youth.â Her parents refused â instead, they trained her in secret. Her mother taught her the art of soundweaving; her father trained her in urban flight, agility, and shadow evasion. Together, they forged her into a new kind of werebat â one that didnât hide, but thrived in the cityâs darkness.
She eventually left home to claim her own sky. Taking the name âBastâ (after the ancient nocturnal goddess of protection), she joined an underground magical courier guild, zipping over rooftops and through mana-flooded tunnels to deliver spells, artifacts, and encrypted messages to those who couldnât trust the corporate arcane networks.
đĽ Why She Hates the Vampire Comparison
Bast doesnât just hate the comparison for surface reasons â itâs deeply personal.
Vampires tried to erase her identity.
The world mistook her trauma for monstrosity.
The media ran with lies because they were more âmarketable.â
Even magical society sees bat wings and fangs and assumes bloodlust, not bravery.
So when someone calls her a vampire now, theyâre not just being ignorant â theyâre ripping open old wounds and dismissing everything sheâs fought for.
Neo-Nocturne City hummed with leyline currents and low-flying maglevs, its night sky streaked with the pale green glow of mana-reactive clouds. Down below, the cityâs surface crawled with a thousand kinds of magic. Up high? That belonged to the couriers.
Above the skyline, a figure darted between power towers, cloakless wings slicing the wind with silent precision. She moved like a whisper across rooftops, too fast for drones or motion sensors.
Her name was Bast Silverwing, and she was on a job.
đŚ The Package
The job came through her guild, encrypted in a pulse-coded tone only a trained werebat could decipher. The client: a high-level leyline engineer named Dr. Corin Vale. The delivery: a spell-core encased in obsidian glass, pulsing with slow, unstable light. The instructions: "No portals. No hoverways. Only the sky. Get it to the Arcane Spire by midnight."
That gave her less than an hour, and the sky wasnât empty tonight.
đ¨ Ambushed
As Bast banked around a corner of the Leviathan Finance tower, her ears twitched.
Three clicks in the soundscape. Not city noise. Wings. Fast. Big. Not bats.
She twisted mid-flight just as a crimson blur streaked past her.
âBloodborne Couriers.â she muttered, baring her fangs in frustration.
Vampire-run. Privately funded. Overpaid, under-ethical. And they were trying to intercept her route.
One of them shouted, âHand it over, flapper. This is Bloodborne airspace now!â
She didn't respond. She flipped into a dive, her body flattening as her echolocation burst painted the alley below in shades of sharp geometry. Steel pipes. Broken signs. A narrow path.
They wouldnât follow.
đ The Chase
Bast dropped fast between buildings, her wings folding in just enough to fit between two neon-lit balconies. Behind her, a vampire courier tried the same moveâand clipped a railing.
CRACK.
One down.
The other two tailed her, firing bolts of aether-thread magic from crossbows that hummed like dying stars. One bolt scraped past her boot, slicing through her leggings.
âCheap shot,â she muttered. Then she clicked her tongue sharplyâa sonar pulse burst out, ricocheting down the corridor of glass and steel ahead.
She found what she was looking for.
A collapsing scaffold â metal barely held together by spell-glue and rust.
She dove under it, then sharply twisted and slapped a resonance rune onto the metal strut.
Behind her: the second vampire courier hit the scaffolding just as Bastâs rune detonated in a wave of sound-pressure magic. No explosion. Just a boom in the bones.
Two down.
đ§ The Final Stretch
The Arcane Spire was in sight now â a twisting tower of living crystal and skyglass, pulsing with arcane currents. But something felt off. Her ears pricked again.
Silence.
Too much of it.
She clicked. No echo.
Bast slammed her wings closed just in time as a null-magic field flared around her. An ambush net. Someone serious wanted this delivery stopped.
She dropped like a stone for three seconds before hitting her wind-jump boots, rebounding off a power line, twisting midair.
âYou want to mess with my echoes?â she snarled. âLet me show you what happens.â
She bit down on her lower lip â drew just a touch of blood â and whispered a spell.
A deep, bone-rattling hum erupted from her chest â not vocal cords, but magic â tuned to the null-field's exact frequency. The air shimmered. The trap shattered like glass.
The last vampire, watching from a cloaked glider, suddenly found their tech scrambled by the frequency burst. Their glider spun out, crashing into the side of a mana-reactive billboard that promptly displayed:
"đŚ NOT A VAMPIRE. STOP ASKING. đŚ"
She mightâve programmed that billboard in advance. Just in case.
đŹ The Drop
Bast landed on the Arcane Spireâs upper balcony with five seconds to spare, wings folding neatly behind her.
Dr. Vale was already there, flanked by golems. A glowing field extended to accept the obsidian package from her clawed hand.
âAny trouble?â he asked, voice flat.
She cracked her neck. âJust the usual bloodsuckers. You might wanna patch your job listing filter. Bloodborne tried to intercept.â
Vale blinked. âThey shouldnât have knownââ
âYeah,â Bast cut in, already walking to the edge of the platform. âThey did. But theyâre a lot quieter now.â
She dropped backward off the building, wings flaring like a shadow against the moon.
đŚ Epilogue: City Whisper
Later that night, the magical underground was already buzzing:
âSilverwing smoked three Bloodborne couriers.â
âThey tried to jam her echoes. Didnât even touch her.â
âShe used sound to bring down a null-field.â
âWas it true what the billboard said?â
No one really knew where sheâd come from.
But they all knew one thing:
If you needed something delivered through the sky â fast, quiet, and untouchable â you called Bast Silverwing.
Just donât call her a vampire.
