[/b]

• Physically Strong. Axel is a vampire, therefore when he was turned he gained the strengths of a vampire as well, including superhuman strength, durability, speed, reflexes, senses and of course immortality and unnatural causes of death.
  
  
• Physically Fit. Even before Axel was a vampire, he was well-built, making him strong and more durable than most guys his age. He didn't tire easily, constantly being on the sports teams and such. This has gave him some slight advantages, even as a vampire.
  
  
• Cocky. Although this could also be seen as a disadvantage, it also plays into his strong confidence, which has only excelled as a vampire. Axel knows what his capable of, what his strengths are, and he knows how to use them (and will use them) to his own advantage. He knows he can back up what he says.
  
  
• Fearless. Even before becoming a vampire, Axel was a 'daredevil' and wasn't afraid of doing or saying whatever he liked. He was often admired for this attitude, as he was seen to be so brave and incapable of showing signs of fear. His only fear would be having his strong run as a vampire ended so shortly. He doesn't fear the thought of having a stake pointed at him, or walking through holy water. No pain, no game.
  
  
• Fashionable. Axel has always displayed a strong sense of fashion. He was one of the 'cool guys' at school, where he obviously had a strong reputation to uphold. If he wasn't picking things himself, he was going shopping with the cheerleaders.
  
  
• Sweet Talker. If Axel wants to get in someone's pants, he'll be in there that night. He knows the right things to say, what not to say and how to get into that person's head. If they like compliments, he'll use that to his advantage. He knows how to play the game. The chicks definantly like it.
  
  
• Resourceful. Axel's family owned many estates within Sunnydale and definantly had a lot of money behind them. Oh by the way, all of that is his now. They are off being dead somewhere.
  
  
• Lack of Remorse. Axel feels no guilt or remorse for his actions, *]therefore can be extremely dangerous in the way that he would be rather unpredictable and one could never know what will happen when around him.
  
  
• Protective. When Axel sets his eyes on someone or something, he asserts control or dominance over it and becomes very protective of it, or the person. Even as a vampire this is still the case. He gets very hostile if say, for example, a fellow vampire interrupted him draining someone. In his words, they are his food and no one else can touch it until he is finished. If he decides to let them live, even.
  

WEAKNESSES

• Vampire Weaknesses. Sunlight, fire, wooden objects, holy water, decapitation. These are the only possible ways of killing Axel, which do prove to be quite a significant weakness, considering he can't go out in everyday sunlight.
  
  
• Arrogant. Although he has confidence in himself and his abilities, he does tend to overestimate himself at times, especially when he feels he is in a "win, win" situation. He gets too cocky at points, and this can cost him when he lets his guard down. He is one of those young males who believe they are 'invincible.' Being a vampire only furthers that belief.
  
  
• Emotions. Axel was never one to strongly express emotions. He never cried, or talked about his feelings to anyone. He saw this as a "weakness" so never truly opened up to anyone. He does display anger though, when needed.
  
  
• Reckless. Axel has always been one to "act now, think later..." which can be rather risky at times. He always reassures himself and others that he knows what he's doing, but once again he can undestimate the consequences.
  
  
• Impatient. Axel likes things happening his way, and right away. He doesn't like waiting too long, because he enjoys being constantly active on his feet without hesitations. When he gets impatient, he becomes angry and rather violent. He is a vampire after all.
  
  
• Cannot Remain Undetected. Although he is rather stealthy, he cannot leave without leaving his mark behind. His major problem is that he never cleans up the mess he leaves behind him.
  
  
• Young. Axel is young, and therefore hasn't seen a lot of the world and hasn't developed that wisdom that comes with age, especially as a vampire. Many vampires don't last too long, especially in Sunnydale with a slayer present. Oh, make that two.

KEEP COMING ON STRONG[/color][/font][/center]

[/b]
When Keith Parker attended Sunnydale High, he couldn't go a day without being noticed/hit on by one girl or another. Axel knows he is good looking, because everyone has reassured him of this. He has short black hair, which is usually styled neatly. However since becoming a vampire, it has become more 'rugged/rough' looking and messier, which makes him look rather 'badboy-ish.' His eyes are dark, looking almost the same color as his hair, despite being a dark hazel.

When taking a first glance at Axel, one could instantly assume that he works out, or is regularily participating in sports or training routines. His body looks extremely fit, and he stands about 6'0. Without a shirt on, his chest is thick, his abdonem ripped with muscle, showing that he does indeed do some kind of regular activity. His arms are solid, and there is little to no body hair over his body, which could be due from shaving which just hasn't resfuraced as a vampire. His skin is flawless in complexion, usually tanned, however since absense from the sun has becoming slightly pale. His fasion sense is well-dressed, displaying a cross between a 'pretty boy' and a 'bad boy' type theme. He would usually be seen in jeans and a bright shirt, which has changed since he became a vampire. He will usually be seen now in jeans, with a white or black tight top, leaning more towards the 'badboy' persona.

PERSONALITY

• Competitive. Axel thrives off of competiton. As a human, he would constantly try and 'one up' against the boys, always trying to prove that he was the best at everything they did together. As a vampire, this hasn't changed. He still wants to create a name for himself and prove himself to others, while at the same time liking a little ol' competition with others, mostly vampires. He will always want to beat a fellow vampire to getting a girl in the alley first, to prove to himself, and others, that he is superior.
  
  
• Air-Head. Axel's cockiness isn't hidden, and everyone he communicates with will almost instantly recognize this trait of his. He has a huge ego, always finding ways of proving to others that he is 'awesome,' or showing that he is one of the cool dudes, though now he prefers 'bad boy.' Axel isn't afraid of telling people about how good he is at doing things and how they cannot compare to him. His air-headed nature comes out in his cocky grin as well, which is almost always on his face until the seriousness kicks in.
  
  
• Masculine. Although this would be expected from a man, some men don't show their true masculinity, and tend to be rather feminine. This is far from what Axel is. Everything from the way he talks with his deep voice, to his mannerisms, and just to the way he holds himself and acts around others, reeks of masculinity and 'tough guy' attitude. He prefers to preserve his emotions within his own mind, as they are his own burden, no one elses. Its also very weak and feminine for him to show emotion. He has a reputation to uphold after all. Emotions as a vampire however, isn't a problem for him whatsoever.
  
  
• Casual. There is nothing formal about Axel; from the clothes he wears, to the way he holds himself around others. He enjoys a laugh, doesn't enjoy tradition and prefers to just live and enjoy life the way he prefers, regardless of rules, expectations or other's perceptions of him. Another thing he does enjoy, is 'casual sex.' No relationship, just pure enjoyment.
  
  
• Hostile at Times. Although generally easy-going, when someone provokes Axel or claims possession/tries to claim possession over what he sees to be 'his,' he will become very defensive and hostile, not really caring about what he does next. This could range from behavior such as yelling, verbal insults, or just purely picking a fight. And in his mind, winning the fight.
  

LIKES

• Training. Axel enjoys keeping himself in top form, even as a vampire. Although he doesn't need to focus as much on remaining in shape as a creature of the night, its just something he enjoys doing.
  
  
• Sex. His a dude, what else can be said? Axel enjoys doing it with great looking girls, maybe even less-good looking after a few drinks, however he does have standards, believe it or not. In many ways, he likes to have 'dominance' over the partner he has sex with. As a vampire, he enjoys the thrill of sex even more, as there are no limits and no ways of getting a girl pregnant. Thank Satan!
  
  
• Music. Partying music, to be exact. He loves the head banging/techno music, and even some of the stuff they dish out at the Bronze. Some.
  
  
• Competition. Axel thrives off of competition, and the thrill of a challenge, and the eventual defeat of that challenge. He likes proving himself to others.
  
  
• Cars. He loves cars, especially the sport cars and the ones which can 'voom' like nothing else! Its also an awesome chick magnet, though as a vampire he can only really drive it around at nights. He does miss that 'sun shining after him and his car' kind of look though, at times.
  
  
• Drinking. His a vampire, of course he'd enjoy this. It taste great, most of the time, and once again he is claming dominance over the other person. He isn't one to enjoy sharing though, due to his extensive possessiveness.
  
  
• Sport. He is a jock, enjoying sport...Any kind of sport. Whether it be golf, hockey or swimming, he'll partake in it. Even if it is a new experience, he'll still try it out because he enjoys remaining active, and usually combines activeness with competition. Which is always sweet.
  
  
• Hard to Get Girls. Although he does like em 'easy' at times, hard to get girls prove a challenge to him. He will get them in the end and make them easy, which is always fun. No one can refuse him, unless they are stupid, or something.
  
  
• Winning. Like competition, he lives competing with others, but with the eventual thought and the end result of winning. He likes beating overs and proving how good he is at things. Whatever is thrown at him.
  
  
• His friends. His friends are everything to him, or were everything to him. As well as his family, he would do anything for them and would take great possession over them and become very hostile if they are, or feel threatened. No one touches his friends or family. Though since becoming a vampire, he has changed that to 'except him...'
  
  
• Himself. It would be a lie if Axel didn't admit he loved himself. He loves how good looking he is, how good at everything he is and now he strong he is.
  
  
• Innocent Girls. Innocent girls are, although boring because they are inexperienced and are usually shy, are fun to bait into certain situations. They usually haven't even had a boyfriend before, therefore are easy targets because they finally feel like they have found someone who actually cares about them. Then he can be their first. Being the first is a big thing for Axel.
  

DISLIKES

• Rejection. He thinks so highly of himself that this isn't even possible. But if it did occur, he knows he wouldn't appreciate it very much. Who wouldn't want him, really?
  
  
• Ugly Girls. No hate, but he kinda feels sorry for them. But he personally wants nothing to do with them. He likes his girls good looking, sexy. He has a reputation to uphold.
  
  
• Romance has never interested him. If it means getting the girl, he'll buy flowers for them or chocolates...Maybe even take them shopping. But he expects something in return. For him its all about the fun. If he does have a girlfriend, she wouldn't expect too much romance, unless it involves him getting what he wants.
  
  
• Losing. He is highly competitive and as he is so highly of himself, losing isn't an option. It makes him look bad, and is a humiliating experience. He is and should be above that.
  
  
• Schoolwork. Draaaag. There is nothing productive about schoolwork, so just get the nerd to do it for you. He doesn't have the concentration or patience for learning and reading.
  
  
• Being a Loner. Now that he is a vampire, he can't really associate with all of his friends, the ones that are alive that is. Its difficult to still not have the popularity and friend connections.
  
  
• Authority. He doesn't like it, and he therefore will not follow it. No one tells Axel what to do except himself. He controls himself, no one else.
  
  
• Showing Emotions. This is a sign of weakness and lack of masculinity. He doesn't need to emasculate, because he knows who he is and where he stands in the world.
  
  
• Clingy People. Urgh...It was just sex, now buzz off already! He doesn't want a relationship all the time...Sometimes, it is just a lil' fun, nothing more. He also hates people who cling to him, male or female, because of his popularity.
  
  
• People who taste yuk. He enjoys a good feed, however a disatisfying feed isn't appreciated by Axel, not only ruining his night but also his appetite. They should be drinking more milk and water, as well as fruits.
  
  
• Boring People. They are unamusing, and he really doesn't like being in their company. They have nothing exciting to bring to the conversation, and he feels like he needs to drive the conversation, if he even wants to talk to them, that is.
  
  
• People 'touching' his things. They are in his possession or they are 'his' therefore everyone else should back off, or they are asking for it.

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Axel is by no means a 'Big Bad' or even BB material. He is just here to enjoy himself for the moment, not to get caught up in any 'vampire vs slayer wars' or Hellmouth plots. However after he meets the slayer, he might realize just what exactly is out there, and may look to become involved, kill her for the 'prestige of it.' He'd possibly allign with Angelus or Spike if they ran into him, letting them mentor him, though at the same time showing rebellion if he doesn't like or agree with their authority.

He would probably try going after some people from Sunnydale High. He would likely go after Cordelia, as he did have an innocent crush on her...Hell, he wanted to bang her. He'd enjoy having fun with her. Even her friend Buffy seems interesting..Even more interesting when he finds out she is a vampire slayer. One other person he would go after his Willow, because of her innocence. Could be a way to bring her into the supernatural world, due to him pretending to take her somewhere 'quiet' only for him to go vampire on her, finally getting drawn away by a slayer rescuing her. He might also enjoy picking on Xander or Jesse at the same time. He always hated them losers.

5 Years Experience | Faith Lehane | Vampire
"Heh. This Friday sounds great man. Just remember to bring your 'A Game', because you know I won't be messing around." The other guy grinned. "Thats not what I heard from Amanda...I heard the two of you messed around quite a lot." He shoved the guy in the shoulder. "Good job man...Couldn't have told a brother personally, though?" The grin was still on his face, more of a teasing one towards Keith. Keith chuckled softly, shoving him back in the shoulder with a coy smirk plastered onto his face like a kid in a candy shop. "Ah man, I was wondering when that would get around. Guessing she couldn't keep the experience to herself...Aye? Man, you know you'd be the first one I told about the chicks, but this time was just too in-depth to talk about. Dude, lets just say I made this chick do unimaginable things...Probably better left behind closed doors, if you know what I mean." He winked towards the other boy, before the two decided to walk down the hall.

They were going to the gym to train for the football game tomorrow night. Although Keith knew he was ready, he wanted to make sure he was more than ready. He also wanted to make sure Billy was ready too, because this game was way too important for him. For the team, to just have it fly away now. If they won their game tomorrow, they'd qualify for the regional finals. He had already tasted the glory, and was more than eager to experience the thrill again. He remembered the last trophy he won for his team last year. Boy was the celebratory party amazing. Incredible sex...Beer with the guys and a trophy to grin at, it was unbelieveable. He vowed to himself that this year would be even better. That brought him to their plans for this friday night. After they defeat the other team tomorrow night, he wanted to have a pre-celebration for another incredible victory and another trophy they bring home for the team. Underage drinking, hot chicks...What else could he ask for? He would be bringing his A Game, he just hoped Billy would too. He would always look out for a brother, and wanted to make sure both of them didn't go back to their bedrooms empty handed. Or in their words, 'with a full sack.'

The two young men paused mid step when they saw the beauty known as Josie pass by. She nodded towards them with a sweet smile, and the two guys nodded back, only with smirks. Keith turned to Billy with a grin, tapping him on the shouldeR. "You better get your game on, mate. The hottest girl around was eyeing me bro." Billy looked at Keith in disbelief. "No, she was obviously smiling at me. If there was any indication she was smiling at you, it was just because she was being nice. She wants me bro." The two boys continued walking, still bickering about who she was smiling towards first.
