Akuro's Father

Background
Much of his past is unknown, but it is more commonly known that he met Shizuka when he was made a personal sacrifice for her. Shizuka was drawn to him and turned him into a vampire, making the two irresistibly close, which soon developed into a romantic relationship.

Eventually, he impregnates Shizuka, and she gives birth to his child, a baby girl. However, he and Shizuka didn't stay happy for long, for Shizuka's former fiancee, Rido Kuran, wrote her lover's name on the wanted vampires list, even though Shizuka had prevented his fall to Level E. Eventually, he was murdered by the Kiryuu family, a famous family of vampire hunters, leaving Shizuka in a rage of grief and vengeance. It also seemed to worsen after her daughter was also taken from her.

Eventually, Shizuka got her revenge on the Kiryuus, leaving only their sons to live, taking one of them with her and cursing the other into the life of a vampire. She soon realized that the Kiryuus were not at fault, realizing who the real enemy was, making her want to kill Rido with her own hands for separating her family.
