Character History: Believe it or not, Shane came from a human family. He was born in Parderborn, Germany some... ninety to one hundred years before on May twelfth. He was born an only child, but that's because he was an accident. After that, his unmarried parents got both of their tubes tied so there wouldn't be another accident. But that didn't stop them from loving him and getting married not even two years into Shane's new life.
His family was very religious, but there was a law back then that some male children could not be baptized until they were fourteen or older. That was when the trauma happened. That was how everything got bad. He was thirteen years old living in a very small village of Parderborn, which is now a prospering city, when French invaders came to take their land. The Germans fought bravely but they were no match and lost the fight quite quickly. Unlike his parents, Shane was amoung the casulties. An unbaptized dead child would soon become a Drekavac. It was sad, really.
Shane believed he would be dead forever when the devil gave him an option. He could continue to live in Hell or go back to the Living and haunt them as a Drekavac. He greedily chose the second option, although he wouldn't actually haunt people. He was too nice for that. At one point, he was a very active and social child. And if he were still alive, he would've been twenty-seven years old by the time he finally came back alive.
As a Drekavac, he could not grow older. He would be stuck at age thirteen for the rest of eternity, which is difficult for him. He cannot marry nor have children of his own. Well, he could, but he figured no one would want a beast like him. His parents were still alive and back in their home but he could not see them. He wondered what they would think of their dead son suddenly coming back to see them? He did pop in occasionally while they were asleep and noticed he had a baby sister, who was found in a basket after his death and they were freed, which caused a hole to form in his heart.
Now, Shane won't speak. His parents have long since passed away but his sister has a family of her own with two sons and a daughter. She never knew of her older, adoptive brother, but she knew there was someone special because of the prayers she'd heard her parents do at night. Shane haunts people occasionally, but he tries to live a normal life on Earth.
