With another of my worthless ideas.
It's another Ranma fic (yay) which stars Ryoga. I haven't written
him much lately, and feel this to be as good a time as any to start.
It borrows a lot from Castlevania, Symphony of the Night. In it,
Ryoga discovers that he is the son of the newly-revived Count Dracula Vlad
Tepes, the dreaded Count Dracula. Dracula had forced himself on a human
woman, Ryoga's mother, something she had kept secret. Ryoga was born lookng
like a full-blooded Japanese (genetics can be a funny thing) except for the
fangs. His strength and endurance are part of his half-vampire breeeding.
Now, at age 17, Ryoga's more vampiric side is coming out in full-force.
Sunlight bothers him, though being a Dhampir allows him to survive it.
Garlic and Crucifixes don't stop him, and silver doesn't affect him.
Whle he has the empathetic feelings of his human mother, he now has
to deal with the bloodlust that his vampiric heritage has just bestowed upon
him. Also, he has all sorts of newfound abilities to contend with, enhanced
senses and agility being among them. His Jusenkyo curse has enabled him to
now access his ability to shift forms to a wolf, bat, mist, and other forms
that the cursed springs can bestow on a person.
How does he deal with this? How does he confront his vampire father?
And what happens when he meets Alucard, and the latest hunter from the
Belmont clan? Or the the Mano clan of Devil hunters?
Thanks!
