* [[WIDEVANIA_Lore/Lord Tepes|Lord Tepes]]: Known in legend as Vlad the Impaler or more commonly, Dracula, is the Lord of all vampires. He has grown weary of the game of politics since the war, choosing to stay isolated in his mountain castle overlooking the town of Widevania. Despite being disliked by Bathory and many Old Blood Vampires, Tepes is loved by New Blood vampires and many other creatures of myth. Many races have legends of the great Lord Tepes that led them from ruin and starvation in Sumer to Europe and its prosperity in ancient times. Tepe’s characterization is not that of a good man nor an evil man. He is simply a man who finds himself at odds with many facets of the status quo and an overwhelming desire to protect his people, all of his people despite their lot in life. He is cold in many respects, but his overall actions and machinations are that of deep affection for his subjects, as well as a hope for their future inhabiting a world with humans.

[[File:Lady Bathory.png|urpight|left|100px]]
* [[WIDEVANIA_Lore/Lady Bathory|Lady Bathory]]: A Vampire Lord whose erratic and violent behavior has done the Skazochnyy no favors with public opinion. Her atrocities as well as those of her army during The Siege of Paris during the war is still a black mark against the Skazochnyy in many human minds. She currently rules over a similar Oblast to Widevania in Bulgaria, which strangely seems to be flourishing, not subjected to the same budget cuts and seeming grudge from the Premier. Bathory has always hated Tepes, seeing him as an empty crown and the reason for the Vampires fall from power. Bathory is powerless in many respects. Her actions are mostly her slavery to her desires, and she is easily pulled into schemes as a useful idiot, punching far outside her weight class. The newfound prosperity her fiefdom has found itself in has done nothing to curb her ego and lust for power and blood. Native to Hungary, Bathory fled to Bulgaria in the 17th century when it was discovered she had been abducting and exsanguinating young virgin girls.
