Personality
Vaughn is a rather arrogant character who believes that he belongs above everyone else. He faces most humans with much distaste and would treat them as servants if not for the need to keep his supernatural status hidden. However, he does have an appreciation for beautiful things, whether they be people or objects, and will have a nearly obsessive desire for them. In that sense, he will do what he can to get his hands on them. But once acquired, Vaughn would not hesitate to abandon the object or person for to him, the chase is the most exciting part of the experience. His past and any moments of weakness are rather taboo topics when speaking with Vaughn. He does not enjoy speaking of his time as a human nor his experiences as a young vampire. He would rather flaunt his wealth and power, but while this showcases his snobbery, it is also used as a facade to hide his feelings. While he does his best to appear detached, Vaughn is not completely apathetic. He can conduct polite conversation and can in fact be charismatic for the sake of benefit. He is still capable of being personal, but the chances of a person being able to push his buttons correctly is very low. While this trait of his has rounded out over time, Vaughn still exhibits racist qualities due to his upbringing. He does not enjoy living under the rules of others, thus his position in the rebel alliance. Stubborn and unruly, Vaughn anticipates the day where he will be able to emerge and rule over the humans as their rightful master.

Biography
Born on a plantation of the Southern United States, Vaughn was raised as the young master of a wealthy planting family. He was treated well with his family and slaves at his bidding. From this, he became accustomed to high society and his ego became blown up. However, when the 1860s rolled around, Vaughn decided to enlist as a soldier in the Civil War and fight for the Confederation. He found that it would serve as a great way to get his name out and to possibly become a hero. During his time appointed to Vicksburg, Vaughn was approached by a stunning young woman and he fell in love almost at once. He began an affair with her and so became distracted from the war. When his superiors found that Vaughn was deserting his company for indecent behavior, he was charged and placed into a cell for confinement. To his surprise, however, the woman appeared in the prison and killed the guards right before Vaughn's eyes. It seemed that she had come to free him, but he was so traumatized by the bloodshed that he screamed and struggled as she approached. Perhaps it was to claim him, the woman (who turned out to be a vampire) turned him and during the process, left a scar down Vaughn's back as a result of his struggling. After awakening as a vampire, Vaughn and the woman fled Vicksburg to a rural town. She acted as his mentor and taught him the ways of vampirism for decades. However, the love that Vaughn had felt in the past were now faded. At one point, the woman began to take up another lover and Vaughn saw this as his cue to leave, so he fled from her side and began to live independently. During his travels, Vaughn had secretly visited his old family plantation and found that it had completely changed. The remaining members of his family treated him as a stranger and said that they believed that Vaughn had died in the war many years earlier. That was when he realized the extent of his immortality and how nothing was going to be constant. Over time, he grew to be more distant from the mortal world. He found a place in Wall Street years later and began to use his abilities of manipulation as well as terror to cajole the market to his favor. Over time, he amassed a large amount of wealth and plans on luxuriating for the rest of time.
