HISTORY: Nero Claudius Drusus was the youngest son of Roman Empress Livia Drusilla from her marriage to Tiberius Claudius Nero. As a young boy Nero enjoyed the formal life of a young Roman dignitary being groomed to serve the empire. Ar this point the monster within had not been released, Nero was a good son, soaking up all knowledge that was presented before him, he was also particularly strong at a young age, making most of his opponents submit after a show of skill on the wrestling ring. The one thing he could not master was horseback riding, every horse his father gave to him, would not stand to be in his presence but for so long, this angered him so much that when he was ten, he killed two of his father’s horses in secret, marking his first step on the bloody path he was destined to cut across the ages.

When Nero came of age, he was granted the ability to hold all public offices five years before the minimum age. When Tiberius left Italy during his term as praetor in 16 BC, Drusus legislated in his place. He became quaestor the following year, fighting against Raetian bandits in the Alps. Drusus repelled them, gaining honors, but was unable to smash their forces, and required reinforcement from Tiberius. The brothers easily defeated the local Alpine tribes. After a awhile Nero was sent to Gaul to quell the Riots caused by the actions of a previous administrator. While there, a tribe of Germans entered Gaul and proceeded to attack Roman settlements. Drusus mobilized his legions and beat the invaders back across the Rhine. He penetrated deep into German territory, traveling as far as the North Sea and placing a yearly tribute on the Frisians. As a reward, Drusus was made praetor urbanus for 11 BC. The office restricted to only leaving Rome, Ten days at a time. Drusus did not have it in him to stay in Rome. In the spring of his term, he set out for the German border once more. He pushed once more into the territory of the various German tribes, only stopping at the onset of winter. He was attacked while making his way back to Roman territory, but managed to rout the German force. His troops proclaimed him Imperator and he was granted triumphal ornaments, as well as the office of proconsul for the following year.
In 10 BC, the Chatti joined with the Sicambri and attacked Drusus' camp, but were easily defeated. Drusus then went to meet Augustus and Tiberius in Lugdunum (at which point Claudius was born), and traveled with them to Rome. He was easily elected Consul for 9 BC, but once more left the city before assuming office. He once again smashed the Chatti, and then began a campaign against the Marcomanni, but was turned back across the Rhine. Drusus died soon after in consequence of a fall from a horse, but unfortunately this is where the history books get it wrong, Nero did not die, As he lay dying in his palace in Gaul, he was visited by a insanely beautiful woman, by the looks of her she was native to the region, she said she wished to punish him for all the Germen blood he has shed over his carrier, she did this by breaking every bone in his body individually, only then turning him. Many believe it was the torture combined with the vampire’s venom that finally unhinged Nero’s mind, whatever the reason; this was when the monster was born. Nero had no help in adjusting to his new found life, in the beginning he was very conspicuous, attacking in broad daylight, it was only the return of his maker that finally calmed him, after learning all he could from her, he fought and killed her, this is attributed to his powers.

Around his time Nero became much more civilized, even making his was secretly back into roman society. Nero took particular interest in his great grandson Nero, who had become Emperor. Nero appeared as a god in front of his grandson, driving him mad, giving him warped advice as to how to deal with the masses, and how to punish the Christians that had not begun to flourish in the empire. After thirty years Nero poisoned his grandsons mind until he forced to kill himself as the empire was now tired of his tyranny. Around this time accounts of Emperor Nero’s Advisor begin to disappear, in fifty years he would have disappeared entirely. Over time Nero played his part in destroying the Roman Empire form the inside out, a feat that he gloats about even now.


Nero kept to himself for hundreds of years, but turns up around where he becomes the inspiration for the legend of Merlin the sorcerer, Nero aided Arthur in securing the island of Briton for a new empire, which would later become Great Briton. Around fifty years after the establishment of the kingdom Nero kills himself off, as he had grown tired of playing the good guy. Even then Nero kept a watchful eye over Briton. Around 1588 Nero Killed and impersonated the Navel Officer Charles Howard, 1st Earl of Nottingham, It was now when he led the British navy in the Tactical defeat of the Spanish Armada, the thick cloud cover of the area combined with the smoke of the never-ending battles served as the perfect cover of his Diamond like skin. Eventually Nero got bored again, and killed himself off. He reappeared once more as Admiral Lord Nelson aboard HMS Victory. It w as here he defeated the Combined French and Spanish navy, without a single ship lost, this would ensure that England become a naval power for over a century. In one of his more theatrical moments he killed himself off once again, dragging it out for over 3 hours.

Nero appeared again, impersonating a admiral in the Union Army during the Civil war, this bored his quickly and as such didn’t even take the time to kill himself off, he just left. Nero stayed out of war from then on, relocating to Philadelphia to begin a coven. It is here where he turned Gabriel and Bianca Williams, he only did it because he respected the bravery of Gabriel, something he had not seen for thousands of years, he did not help them in the newborn life, thinking that the same lessons he learned would be good for them, this worked out until he got word that the Volturi had been watching them, he took them under his wing teaching them the proper way of living amongst the humans without making a scene. Around this time Nero found a new joy in life, with Gabriel as his duet partner they became a well known group in society. After awhile they were banished from Philadelphia, because of the brash actions of Gabriel, Nero never forgave him for this, seeing him as the cause of being told what to do in over two thousand years. Nero abandoned his adoptive children, but he did not stop watching them, he made sure they stayed in line. Nero was particularly proud of the founding of the New Orleans Coven, which he thought he was the patriarch, even joining them in the seventies for a time.

Nero exiled himself to London, enjoying his solitude, he was alerted to the situation of America when Bianca who was staying in France, disappeared, Nero arrived to New Orleans to find his Coven destroyed, in his anger he went on the war path killing many of the smaller newborn armies of Mexico, and anyone else he thought were the cause of his children and coven demise. Nero is led to Forks as he hears of the increased Volturi presence there, in True from he departs for the area, never able to turn down an opportunity to outwit the volturi.

“Does this suffice or would you like something more aggressive?” Darius began to play, waiting for his masters response, Bianca was present also anticipating the beautiful melody that the duet would make during their practice. “I’m in a more theatrical mood how about this…” Nero began to play a sober undertone on his cello, which Gabriel respond to with a controlled frantic melody, the duo created a sound convey emotion, and age, something the both of them had all too much of. Their skill was unmatched, others began to enter the chamber room, almost entranced by there playing, Darius smiled as his crimson eyes looked up from the piece to the new arrivals, after awhile about a hundred people had filled the room, some were even brought to tears by the duo playing.

They played nonstop for an hour, the two of them began to gather their things, to begin making their way home. They were joined by young women, she had come to congratulate Gabriel on a wonderful performance, and completely ignoring Nero she sealed her fate. Gabriel did not intend to kill this one, it was the first time n a long time that he felt anything for and human, it made him feel alive again. Darius walked her al the way to her home, he gave her kissed and turned to go home, he was almost blown aside by a quick moving figure, he knew the only per that could move that fast was Nero, he turned to find Nero embracing the girls drained, and limp body. “You monster! Why do you have to take anything I love away?” Nero gave a bone chilling psychopathic chuckle, “You’re a vampire dear boy, you don’t have love in you anymore.” Gabriel screamed punching down a light post, Nero rolled his eyes, “Alright her take here, I didn’t think you be all mushy about it…” Darius turned from him again, Nero manipulated the grills hand, to make it looks as if she was rubbing his face, he fiend a women’s voice, “Oh Gabriel, I’m so pail…care to Rosie up my cheeks?” Gabriel pushed the body away, “Your sick Nero!” Nero answered with another cackle, “Aww come on Gabriel don’t be such a stiff, this one has life in her yet!” Nero began to dance a waltz around Gabriel humming a sweet tone.
