BRIEF HISTORY:
Emmanuel and his brother Jose were born to Spanish immigrants in 1902. They lived in a New york slum where both Edgar and Maria worked hard to take care of their boys. When the boys were of age they both began to work and help with the family. Their situation improved bit by bit until the family had a small tailoring business. Emmanuel was helping to manage the family money. On the side he was working with a small 'mob' or gangster chain to launder money and sell bootleg alcohol. He was good at what he did.
Through the family business he met Samantha. She was to become his wife. They courted for a short while and then married. He was 22, she was 18. It was a few months later when Samantha got pregnant with their daughter, Lizzy. They lived in peace for eight years. Emmanuel moved up in the world, both through his legal actions, and his illegal ones. He took over the family business after his father died from a stroke. Emmanuel's mother died soon after Edgar's death, reportably from grief. Little did Emmanuel know his world was soon to shatter.
Emmanuel had made a mistake with one of the big shots of the mob he worked with. He came home one day in august to find his wife slaughtered. He was then forced to watch as his daughter was told to run and then shot from behind. Emmanuel continued with his illegal actions, but swore revenge. The man began to drink heavily. He was careful not to get caught but was determined to kill himself.
Emmanuel met his sire one evening a few years after his family was killed. He was 33. She found him passed out in his home. Intending to make a meal out of the mobster, she began to feed, but the vampire was struck with emotion and soon stopped her feast. She had seen his story through his blood and was touched. Deciding to spare his life she took the weak mortal home and nursed him back to full health. Valencia, Emmanuel's maker, eventually fell in love with him. She took him on as a sort of 'pet' and helped him free himself from his alcohol addiction. The two became close friends.
Unfortunatly, Emmanuel was still involved in his mob world. He was 38 when he had a hit put on him. He should have died that night, but Valencia found him dying and turned him. She stayed with him only a few years and then left. Their friendship and fire had changed when Emmanuel joined the life of the d**ned. But he turned everything to work for him. Shortly after receiving the gift of vamprism he took his revenge and slaughtered all of those who had anything to do with the murders of his family. All those save one. He never found out what happened to the man who gave the first order. He only hope's he is dead by now.
In the beginning Emmanuel hated his vampiric nature, now he's grown fond of it. He misses Valencia, and thinks of her now and then. He still grieves over the violent loss of his family, but has learned to live with it. He now owns one of the best known clubs of the underworld and is proud to head it up.
