Physical Description: EZ's life before turning into a vampire was one of hard work, physical exertion and military service and his body reflects this. His muscles are long, lean and well defined. He is tall and handsome with a chiseled jaw, soft, short brown hair and eyes that are a paler version of the deep ocean blue that they were when he was human. He has long legs, long arms and broad shoulders that are perfect for dancing.
Attitude: EZ spent the last few years without the one love of his life. He cannot find it in himself to love anyone because he was so in love with his wife. He is quiet and frustrated most of the time. He is nice to other people and often wonders if life is worth living it it requires him to hurt people. For that reason he only feeds on harvested blood and never live. He is confident and strong willed and spends most of his time dancing alone in his studio to get his frustrations out.
Abilities: Basic vampire abilities and weaknesses. He also has an immeasurable talent for dancing.
History: In the year 1982 a young man was born to lowly circumstances. Where he was born, there were only four ways out of the ghetto. Entertainment, sports, military or crime. For this young man, the choice was easy. He was born with a talent for dance and music. He managed to get a scholarship to one of the best performing arts schools in the country. It was the best thing to ever happen to him. Not only did he make it in, but the little girl he grew up with, Elaine, and had always loved made it in too. The two of them were the stars of the show in every performance. Their chemistry made hearts soar, their talents filled audiences with amazement. After graduation, the young man found himself with a choice. He needed money for the performing arts college for him and his love and the best way to do that was to join the military so he could get the student aide. He felt a need to defend his country anyway since his father had died doing just that. His country had been at war and just before June of 2012 the soldiers were sent home. It would be a good time to join and not be sent to war. He talked to Elaine about it and they decided to get married before he went into the military.
While in the military, he was sent to the middle east for some last minute cleanup missions. While in the field, his unit was obliterated by enemy fire, leaving him to be the only survivor. If you could call him a survivor, he had been gravely wounded. Sometime in the night, while he lay cold and bleeding, a man with the palest white eyes he had ever seen happened upon him. He was going to die and he knew that, so did the man. Without warning, the man grabbed him and bit him, draining him nearly dry of all his blood. To his amazement, he was force fed the man’s blood. The man explained to him what he was and that he needed a way to get to the United States unnoticed. He was buried in the ground with the man over night. At dark, they dug their way out. His maker told him to play dead and let the soldiers find him. So he did. He was put in a black bodybag, then a coffin to be shipped home. Somewhere along the way, his maker had climbed into his coffin with him.
It wasn’t but a few hours after his wife buried him that the apocalypse happened. By the time he and his maker, Drake Legends dug their way out of the grave, the whole city around them had burned to the ground. Elias assumed that his wife was dead…
Lost in desperate depression, Elias travelled with his maker as he began to gather his vampire army to rebuild the human race. He did just what he was told by his maker and kept himself busy so he could not think about her. Soon, New Vegas was built and Drake told Elias to follow his dreams there. He told him his talent would be wasted if he did not dance for the world. Elias was unsure if he could do it but he would do anything Drake told him to. He opened a performing arts center and amphitheatre so that performances could be made without the taint of New Vegas atmosphere. He sent a coach out to find someone to play the female role in the performance, instructing him to teach her the part before she even arrived there. He wanted to put on the performance and prove to Drake that without the same chemistry he had with his wife, it would be a disaster, for that reason the performance would be done without rehearsal and they would be laughed off stage.
Little did he know, the girl the coach found was his wife.

Rp Sample: Normally, EZ would be nervous before a performance but right now he didn't care. He was in costume, ready to dance. His suit was black, his shirt white with silver buttons and silver tips on the collar. His black patent leather dancing shoes were shined to a brilliant sheen. All he needed now was his mask.
The black leather mask covered the upper half of his face, including his nose and upper lip but excluding his eyes. The only things visible on his face were his jaw, chin, lower lip and his eyes. He knew the woman on the other side of the stage whom he would be dancing with would be wearing a similar mask.
EZ looked through a separation in the curtain at the musicians getting ready to play. Perhaps the audience would get some entertainment other than laughing him and his dance partner off the stage. It wasn't that he could not dance. He danced very well in fact. He just made sure his dance partner didn't know the moves for the dance. It was supposed to be improvisation and she was to follow his moves. The problem was, he was not going to improvise. This was a protest on his part. He was going to dance the same dance he and his wife had performed at their graduation competition their senior year. It was also a tribute to her, to show her how much he missed her. Instructing was one thing, performing...he couldn't do it without her.
EZ looked across the stage and saw a masked face looking back at him. So, that was her...the little wave almost annoyed him. It was something Elaine would do. He nearly waved back by instinct but dropped his hand half way up and simply turned away, disappearing back behind the curtain. He wanted to get this over with...
