Seth Martin
”I’ve learned something over the last few years I’ve been doing this. Never trust a fanged smile.

Hair: Brown
Eyes: Blue
Height: 5’9
Weight: 168 lbs

The Looks
Seth is a handsome young man with bright blue eyes and short brown hair. He tends to dress in all blacks, as what he hunts doesn’t tend to like the daylight and wearing anything else would make him stick out like a sore thumb. He tends to have a rather serious or dour expression. Even when he’s with friends, he can’t seem to drop it.
Above his left eye there’s a scar from a claw of some massive beast. Another notable scar on his neck where a vampire bit into his flesh but failed to find purchase long enough to kill. He has a myriad of their scars, but thee two are the most prominent and obvious in casual clothing. At some point in the recent past, Seth lost his right arm to a zombie infection working it’s way through his system. He’s since replaced it with a prosthetic that functions as both a mostly functional arm, but also has a built in holy water sprayer. The arm is made of silver but otherwise functions fairly normally.
The Personality
Loyal - Seth is a highly loyal individual with a small and dwindling group of people who he genuinely trusts. Once you’ve earned his trust, it’s hard to lose it but it is even harder to gain it in the first place.
Moody - Seth is a moody person these days. After years of hunting, he’s grown a little bit bitter and sad. This manifests as a short attitude and a depressive personality.
The Story
Our story begins in Los Angeles, California. A young woman is surrounded by men in white lab coats wearing surgical masks and bandanas on their heads. Doctors. “Push Ms. Martin, you can do it!” With a yell, the young woman pushed and cries filled the room. This was the beginning of Seth Martins life.
10 years forward - the more interesting part of his life starts. Walking through the forest with his mother's boyfriend. Hiking had become a very big hobby between the two of them. “Alright, Seth. I'm gonna quick go over here and check something out.” The older man said. Seth nodded and waited until Seth heard someone fall a little ways off the path. It sounded rough. So Seth quickly ran down to see if maybe he could help. There, he found a man. But he looked extremely pale. He was going to go get his companion; but then he saw a book on the ground. Something with scribbled writing on its cover. “The Monster Hunters SurviVal Guide”. He looked around and shoved the book in his bag before calling for Dave.
Dave busted his way through the trees and found Seth trying to check the body. Finding small punctures in its neck. That day, Seth and his mother moved to Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.. The Crawfish Capital of the World. Oh this was a very interesting point in young Seth’s life. As this would be his first introduction to supernatural forces.
Breaux Bridge middle school was a breeze for young Seth, he excelled in most courses and had a couple friends. He had some issues in math, and he wasn’t necessarily popular. But he wasn’t unliked. As Seth walked through the halls on his 2nd year at the school. It was strange, he could’ve sworn that there were more kids at school in the last year. Going from a class of 60, to around 55. Perhaps they had moved away. His school year otherwise remained normal. Remaining quiet. However, the same trend had increased over the next couple years. His 3rd year, 10 people went missing presumably moving away overnight, and upon his freshman year in High School; he had noticed that around 15 of his former classmates had gone missing. At this point, he had become incredibly suspicious. So he stole one of his friends crossbows and loaded them with arrows. His friend had modified it to fire multiple arrows over a short period of time.
What he found during the night, was utterly horrifying. A group of pale people were escorting a friend of his and his parents out of their house and ushering them into a van where he saw other people inside the van. Remembering something, he reached into his backpack and pulled out the old diary that he had found in the woods. He found the passage he was looking for and read silently as possible.
“Vampirus Aldencia. - These vampires are your classic horror movie types. Weak to sunlight, able to turn into bats, drink blood, and hypnotise prey. Don’t get too close. Optimal hunting requires a crossbow and a perfect shot through the heart. Keep your distance.”
He looked at the illustration and then through the scope on his crossbow. The illustration matched perfectly.. Fucking hell… He didn’t know how, but these were real vampires. He couldn’t handle this alone, but when they closed the doors; he heard the people screaming for help. The vampires must’ve put the whole town to sleep so they could harvest their prey in secret. He quickly ran back home, where he saw a disturbing sight. His mother was still awake… But why was she still awake? That is when he saw another van arrive. That’s when he knew what he had to do. It looked just like the one his friend had been taken in, and he knew that he was downwind. Thank god for his mother's Ex-Boyfriend teaching him how to hunt with a crossbow.
He looked through the scope, waited for a perfect shot… and watched the arrow sail clean through the vampires chest. The feminine vampire exploded into ash. He didn’t take any time to reconsider, and quickly tried to line up another shot. Unfortunately, these things were much faster than he had thought and he had ended up shooting the side of the house. Fuck. He had missed his shot.
He ripped an arrow out just as the other vampire ran down the road at him. He quickly slipped in his earbuds and met the creature head on. Ducking between her legs; he barely managed to slam the arrow in-between her ribs before she could grab at him. She exploded into dust as well.
Thinking he’d won, he realized that his mothers lights just went off and her car was gone. He had just recently gotten his learners permit, so hopefully no one would stop him on the road. He thought as he got into the vampire van and drove until he found a van similar to the one he was driving. He had to find out where they were all going, and following them was probably the best way to do that. He followed the black van by a couple blocks away; thinking that if he was lucky; he wouldn’t be seen. Luck seemed to be on his side, as he followed them out into the country. Where he saw multiple black vans and his mother’s car already parked. He waited until the last van was unloaded and began walking towards the building with his crossbow ready. He took note of the guard, he looked vampiric; so he shot him through the heart. The arrow did its work and the man was ash before he could raise an alarm. Unfortunately, Seth had managed to skip the passage where it explained that vampires could hear your blood rushing through your veins. And he saw that there were plenty of hungry vampires wanting a snack, but what really disturbed him… was the fact that they were all the mothers of his classmates that had gone missing years and months before. Oh god. What the hell was happening?
He ran back to his van and peeled out; being pursued by an army of bloodthirsty soccer moms. Doing the only thing he could think of; he drove the van into the town tanning salon. A recent addition. He quickly flipped on the lights and opened all the tanning beds. He hoped this worked.
The soccer moms rushed in, and one by one fell to the ground in front of the ultraviolet rays. Completely unable to move as Seth ripped a piece of wood from the walls and staked them. He didn’t know what else to do for them.
He felt helpless now. His only chance was to leave town. Maybe he should just go get help you know? This wasn’t something he was prepared to handle. He just… He needed help. But he couldn’t rely on Meta-Human assistance. He had to do this himself. He had to learn how to get rid of this infection on his town. Then he could return… god dammit, why couldn’t he just save everyone?
He jumped into the van which was only slightly damaged. The storefront was mostly glass, before he left, he returned home. He grabbed his mothers wallet and any money/valuables they had stashed around the house. He flipped on the porch light on the off chance his mother would come home, and found something on the front porch. It was a blade. A sword that seemed to pull light into it. He threw it into the van and he left Breaux Bridge. Knowing that when he left, he had already sealed his mother's fate to become one of the beasts.
Night Walker attempted briefly to make a profit off his skills by starting Hunters 4 Hire. But when that fell apart, he seemed to disappear from the hero scene for two years.
He’s spent those two years gaining experience and slaying all kinds of monsters. But also losing friends. He’s back on the scene now, ready to do whatever needs to be done.
The Powers
- Powers:
- Supernatural Blood - Seth has been bitten, scratched, and damn near killed by a number of supernatural creatures. His body has now adapted to the stress, similarly to how an immune system reacts to a disease. Seth is functionally immune to being transformed into a supernatural creature.
Enhanced Strength - Seth has slightly above peak human strength, capable of lifting upwards of one ton. This is in part due to the aforementioned supernatural blood ability, as though his body has adapted against the negative side effects; he still gained a minor version of the supernatural abilities. At night, th he strength is doubled and on a full moon it’s quadrupled.
Enhanced Speed - Seth has slightly above peak human speed, capable of moving at speeds upwards of 20 MPH. At night he can move up to 25 MPH, and on a full moon he can move up ro 50 MPH.
Enhanced Regeneration - Seth heals from wounds exceptionally quickly, with small cuts and bruises healing within hours. At night, he can small wounds in minutes and more grievous wounds in hours and on a full moon he can heal from small wounds instantly and more grievous wounds in minutes with him even being able to bounce back from fatal injuries within hours.
Enhanced Senses - Seth has enhanced senses. In particular his eyesight and hearing are greatly enhanced especially at night. Capable of seeing in the dark and hearing a conversation up to a mile away at a time. With his night boost, this is increased by 4, and with his full moon boost by 8.
The Weaknesses
- Weaknesses:
- Supernatural Weaknesses - Seth is mildly weak to a number of supernatural weaknesses. While not as weak as a full fledged monster, he is still weak. These include:
Silver Allergy - Despite having a silver prosthetic, Seth has a mild allergic reaction to direct skin to skin contact with the metal. Breaking out in hives where he touches it and weakening his supernatural abilities. While in skin to skin contact with silver, his full moon boosts disappear.
Garlic Allergy - Seth can’t have garlic. It will temporarily syepewas his night boosts.
Unceasing Hunger - Due in large part to his supernatural blood, Seth has a hunger. He has to hunt to satisfy his inner monster or else his supernatural immunity is suppressed, leading to an eventual transformation into one of several monsters, turning his other weaknesses into full fledged anathema.
The Items
- Monster Hunting Gear:
- Demonic Guns:
A set of paired revolvers given to Seth by a crossroads demon. These guns expertly exploit the weakness of any given supernatural creature without exception.- Weakness:
Each gun has 6 shots. The first twelve are free, and can be spent freely. Any shots made after this point are made of soul stuff, giving him an effective 6 more shots before he passes out.
- Mummy Linen Jacket:
A jacket made from the ceremonial wrappings of a mummy. It protects him from most effects of curses, harmful magic, and supernatural entities abilities.- Weakness:
- The linen is incredibly flammable, and while protected against magical flames it is not protected against regular flames. The jacket will regenerate over a few days, but once destroyed it is effectively out of the thread.
- Silver Prosthetic:
This handy tool is both a prosthetic arm, a silver weapon, and a holy water/flamethrower.
- UV Grenade:
- A long rubber stick covered in UV lights. A battery inside allows it to light up releasing UV rays.
- Weakness:
- The device is only useful against creatures/people with an extreme weakness to sunlight
The device is highly fragile. Pulling a single wire will completely deactivate the device.
- The Monster Hunters survival guide.:
- A diary found in the woods that holds information about more common North American monsters and their weaknesses. The diary is unfinished, and there are passages that aren't finished. Seth has taken up writing his personal experiences inside of the book.
- Weaknesses:
- The book is made of paper and leather. Enough heat will almost certainly destroy it.
- Sun-Saber:
- A long UV light with a rubber handle resembling a sword. The “blade” is about 3 feet long and emits the amount of light you’d expect from a tanning bed light. The light is purple in color and emits a small amount of heat the longer it is on.
- Weaknesses:
- The blade is made of glass, and is very easily breakable. Swinging with the weapon will almost assuredly destroy it.
The blade is battery powered, and doesn’t last very long in combat.
- The Blade of Night:
- A rapier he pulled off of a vampire. It has no special abilities, though it seems to draw light into it for a small area around it.
- Weaknesses:
- The blade is extremely sensitive to cold enough temperatures, it will become brittle and break far more easily.
- Blessed Throwing Knives:
- A set of iron throwing knives that he keeps on his hip. The knives have been blessed by the church and do more damage against undead and demonic entities.
- The Night Van:
- A 2017 RAM ProMaster Cargo Van in black. The van has a workbench in the back and a cabinet filled with everything he needs. The van is extremely spacious, and can carry two people at one time plus all his gear and working materials.
The Fluff
Arsenal - Seth has a wide variety of mundane weaponry that he can use as a backup should his other weapons become lost, stolen, or unusable for one reason or another. This Arsenal contains guns, crossbows, stakes, silver bullets, and various other pieces of monster hunting esoterica.
