INVENTORY

EAR RING
His left ear is pierced. His earring is a thin piece of twisted metal with a strip of leather attached to the end.

JACKET
This is a long wool jacket with leather inner. It resembles an old military jacket.

MEDAL
This is a five-pointed Maltese cross over a red background, topped by a crown. A European military medal of some kind. David is reticent about it.

CLOTHES, ASSORTED
He usually wears a black tee shirt, black pants, black motorcycle boots, and black gloves.

MOTORCYCLE
His bike is a 1987 Harley Davidson Sportster with an 1100cc engine. It's been modified over the years, but he keeps it in as close to peak condition as possible.

 


David is the former leader of the Lost Boys, a group of vampires and one of the most powerful motorcycle gangs in Santa Carla, California. Charismatic and seemingly unflappable, his reign extended to most of Santa Carla. Those who crossed David and the Lost Boys ended up dead or missing, and David turned vampires on a whim or when he found it amusing.

When he met Michael Emerson, he attempted to goad the half-vampire Star into killing him and becoming a fully-fledged vampire. When that didn't work, he convinced Michael to join them, almost getting him killed several times before eventually turning him into a half-vampire.

David managed to avoid death at the hands of Michael and the Frog Brothers, and after his losses against them, he vowed revenge. He's been on the move since, looking for a new city to rule.

He's tight-lipped about his history, and the only clues that he might be older than he looks is the medal that he wears attached to his jacket. In reality, David was turned in Santa Carla in 1906, during a visit to a popular seaside resort. The 1906 earthquake hit San Francisco, and nearby Santa Carla was also devastated. The resort fell from Hudson's Bluff after the land it was on collapsed, and an injured David was turned by resort owner, Max.

Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
Say hello to the night
Lost in the loneliness
Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
No one knows

I can't wait, I can't wait, no
When I see little lights in the shadows
One must hide when the sun gets higher
I don't know what this madness means

Here comes the night, the bedroom in shadows
Candlelights, I don't know where it's coming from
But I, I keep moving on
Till the darkest thought makes me want to try these wings

Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
Say hello to the night
Lost in the loneliness
Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
No one knows

Loneliness pours over you
Emptiness can pull you through
Did you go to sleep with the light on?
I can't wait for this feeling to free me

Wind blows hard, but it doesn't matter
'Cause when the sun goes down
Nothing else matters, the line is where the night lies
I will wait outside her window tonight

Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
Say hello to the night
Lost in the loneliness
Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
No one knows

Loneliness pours over you
Emptiness can pull you through
Did you go to sleep with the light on?
I can't wait for this feeling to free me

Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
Say hello to the night
Lost in the loneliness
Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
No one knows

A last fire will rise behind those eyes
Black house will rock, blind boys don't lie
Immortal fear, that voice so clear
Through broken walls, that scream I hear

Cry, little sister (Thou shall not fall)
Come to your brother (Thou shall not die)
Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)
Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

Blue masquerade, strangers look on
When will they learn this loneliness?
Temptation heat beats like a drum
Deep in your veins, I will not lie...

... To little sister (Thou shall not fall)
Come to your brother (Thou shall not die)
Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)
Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

My Shangri-Las
I can't forget
Why you were mine
I need you now

Cry, little sister (Thou shall not fall)
Come, come to your brother (Thou shall not die)
Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)
Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

Cry, little sister (Thou shall not fall)
Come, come to your brother (Thou shall not die)
Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)
Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

Cry... little sister (Thou shall not fall)
Thou shall not die
Thou shall not fear (Unchain me sister)
Thou shall not kill...

 Just a few headcanon conclusions I've made about David. They may be expanded later. Keep in mind I haven't read the novel because it's ridiculously expensive.
  • David has a need to be in charge (and a pretty large rebellious streak). As seen when he terrorizes people who cross him (the police officer, Max, and the Emersons) and uses people as leverage to get what he wants (threatening Star to get Michael to come with the Boys to feed). If he can't be in charge or is publicly rebuked, he lashes out with the intent to cause fear or death (Max and the police officer, respectively)
  • Ironically, eternally a teenager, at least in mentality, he also has a need to have a stronger vampire nearby, and others close to him. He cares for his family, in his own way.
  • As an unfilmed scene at the end of the movie was of a mural of Max from the early 1900s on the sunken hotel wall, Max was at least that old. David was turned during fighting in Europe. His jacket and medal were taken from his first kill, a fellow Allied soldier. When he returned to America and to California, he met Max, and the older vampire took on a kind of fatherly role (which David sometimes resented). David became the public "leader" of the vampires Max turned.
  • David finds people who stubbornly resist him (without actually harming him or his allies) interesting, and enjoys pushing them to see how far they'll go.
