Viscount Wilmark Rödtann is the head of a family of vampires enjoying titles of nobility. The family has been in Egjora for more than a century, ensuring their vampiric status go unnoticed by remaining reclusive and doing most of their official business through liaisons, primarily intelligent thralls. They have an estate outside of the city proper, as well as a manor in the city itself, which generate much of the family's revenue. The rest of their income is generated by local vampires who pay for their protection, making the Rödtann family a vampiric mafia operating in Egjora's shadowy society. The family crest is a full moon in the jaws of a wolf, all beneath waves of red water.

Viscount Wilmark himself is a pale man with raven-black hair of noble standing, proud and strong. Despite being turned at a relatively old age (54) his hair shows only the slightest hints of grey, and over the years, steady feeding and undeath as yielded him a rather impressive physique, like one might expect from a swimmer or dancer. He's prone to wearing formal robes and plenty of rings, mostly in dark colours. He's an expert in tenebromancy, as well as being adept in necromancy and psionics.

His vampiric abilities allow him to transform into a flock of bats at any given time, and gives him vastly improved agility and strength compared to mortal men. He is, however, terribly weakened when exposed to direct sunlight, weakening his body and magic. When in the shape of bats, sunlight does not weaken his body, though the bright environment is still painful to the eyes.
