Complications:
Addiction - Much like humans are "addicted" to food and water, so it is for vampires needing blood.
Distinctive Feature - To anyone who has mystically-enhanced senses, the Culebras Vampires have a supernatural "stink" of blood magic.
Monstrous - Culebras vampires are monsters. When they "vamp out," their skin turns lizard / snake-like, their ears become pointed, their noses receed into their face and their fangs (measuring around 1 1/2 to 2 inches in length) flip down from the roof of their mouths.
Relationship - Robert is estranged from his daughter, Elza, because she refused to (literally) sell her soul.
Seller of Souls - The Followers of Germanicus have made pacts with a devil to gain power. While the deal has been broken, it doesn't negate their willingness to do it.
Vulnerability - Attacks with solar energy descriptors affect Culebras Vampires without any bonuses to the effect, but will gain the cumulative advantage. Normal sunlight will do Cumulative Damage 5 to them in human form and Damage 10 in full vamp mode instead of killing them outright.
Weakness - If staked through the heart (via a successful called shot or obtaining a "yellow" level damage) with wood from the Gamanthera tree (a rare species of Evergreen laurel plants from the Cloud forest in Costa Rica), Culebras vampires take an additional cumulative damage 10 until it is removed or they reach red, which causes them to die and turn to ash. Any other wood, however, does no more damage than any other attack.
Enemies - The Followers of Germanicus are actively hunted by B.A.D.A.S.S.. While Robert's powers had been removed and his connection to Der Nacht had severed, he was transformed into a Culebras vampire, which are just as hunted as Followers.

Robert Diaz was created and designed by Jim Caswell. He is an NPC.
