Description

This will be Drac's latest redesign. I will also apply the top hat when I finish "Dread Bat Swarm".

Backstory time!

Drac-in-the-Box was known to be rather spoiled and Ill-gotten in life. He also had a fascination with Vampires, so much so that he was truly convinced that he was actually a Vampire. He would frequent Goth night clubs and tell everyone he meets that he was a Vampire.

To which, the Goths would roll their eyes and carry on. Drac eventually met someone who was also a self-proclaimed "Vampire" and offered Drac to attend a ritual later that night. Drac eagerly agreed and the two headed off.

The ritual was that the "Vampires" would make Drac ingest Human Blood while bitten by a captured Common Vampire bat. However, this bat in particular was carrying the Rabies virus. Unknowingly to anyone, Drac eventually went mad from the virus, foaming at the mouth and nearly attacked the other cult members (to which they actually believed that Drac was becoming a Vampire).

Drac eventually died.

After his reincarnation in the NecroWorld, he soon realized that he became what he wanted to be. (sort of.) His new form consists of a Jack-in-the-Box with Vampiric garb. Unfortunately, he couldn't do a lot of Vampire things (like shift into a bat, levitate or control weather). He also soon discovered that he couldn't really travel because his spring was attached to the coffin. So, he ditched the coffin, and hopped to nearby civilization (with difficulty).

He eventually made his way to the Vampire City known as Nightworld. a City that only appears at night, but will mysteriously vanish during the day. After introducing himself (and still believing he's a legit Vampire), he tried to acquire a Repose Steam Coffin, a mechanical coffin with legs that travel where the rider wishes. A second popular mode of transportation for Vampires compared to the Grim Rodder, a four-wheeled coffin car.

A nearby Vampire, venturing from her home discovered Drac's financial problem and decided to assist him. She paid 5300Z for Drac's Repose Steam Coffin. Drac thanked her very much, and the Vampire smiled happily as she ventured out of NightWorld.

Drac ventured a bit more until he managed to have found Vampyrum Spires. Home to a number of Vampire nobles like Count Noss and Countess Elizabeth Bathory. As he traveled near Vampyrum Spires, he usually catch wind of an empty castle, once belonging to the Nobles of Sectula. After the last of the Secula, a Viscount, there were plans of taking over the Castle and claiming it as their own.

However, Noss and Bathory decided on a more sensible idea. They hosted a raffle (to which Drac entered his name) along with a fundraiser. The money in question will go to the new owner of the Castle. The fundraiser reached over 264,500,697Z

And in sheer luck, despite having over 2,000 other contestants, Drac won the raffle and the money. After he won, Castle Sectula was then known to be Drac's Castle.

Later that evening, Drac discovered Necromancy and Magic. So, he tried his damndest to acquire every book on Magic. The books however are hard to find as other Zombies usually tend to keep them for varying reasons. He did however managed to get a book of Vampire Magic and some spell cards from a Night Raider at the cost of 19000Z. With his newfound boom and spell cards, he practiced every so often against his butler, Shivers. He got better and better, but still loses to Shivers a LOT.

After his Repose Steam Coffin had a temporary malfunction, Drac tried hiring an engineer, but most of the good ones were busy with some war or some such thing. Something Drac didn't care about. So, he tried to fix it himself.

GYG - 031 - Drac's Poor Engineering Skills by PlayboyVampire Unfortunately, Drac couldn't tell a wrench from a screwdriver. He didn't have the intelligence or basic skills to fix his transportation device. Luckily, while Drac was too busy, fumbling with a worthless toolbox, Shivers managed to get a hold of a Zombie who had a book on Basic Engineering (for Nitwits).

After studying the book, Drac managed to (finally) repair his Repose Steam Coffin. His new form of knowledge inspired him to make more crazy contraptions. One of them included an escape rocket. He lacked the necessary fuel for the rocket however, and was suggested to him (from Shivers) that the Necropolis may have some.

Drac, Shivers and the Toy Box ventured to the Western Coast to locate the infamous Necropolis. After searching for hours, they came across Teapot Castle whom (with the assistance of the Queen) guided Drac and his entourage to the Necropolis.

Intrigued with everything around him, Drac was too distracted with the various shops, restaurants, and spectacles in the Necropolis to even remember why they were even here. Luckily, Shivers reminded him. And he had to remind him every so often since Drac was easily distracted.

Eventually getting to the Citadel, Drac got to meet the ruler of the NecroWorld, Lady Death. And only then would he become a nuisance in the future.
