Revision as of 21:47, 28 March 2020
Hastings is one of the Vampire Kings. His territory roughly corresponds to Tarq in the Fadelands, and it is for this reason that he was the main participant in the Dead Wars (because this was the location of Ytarra at the time).
Biography
In time immemorial, four Vampires gained the ability to shackle spirits. These four (Vladimir, Swayne, Hastings and Lockhart) became the Vampire Kings and used their power to wipe out all other Vampires and then divide the continent among them - Vladimir in the North, Swayne in the West, Hastings in the South and Lockhart in the East. They then began warring amongst themselves for shackles, naturally.
