He has dark black hair that he often has it combed back or it would just fall loose around his head. His eyes are a pale milky blue, though they still look very alert and clear. He stands at about 6’2, having been a giant during his birth time. He is muscled but not buff, and though he is a little lanky his body is very proportioned for his height. He also is constantly wearing his wedding ring which is still the original from 1862. Brass ring with gold plating, though most of the plating has been chipped off.

Family Details: Rufina J. Kaylock was his mother(died at age 34), John Wesley Kaylock was his father (died at age 43), and Ethel Lottie Kaylock is his sister (death age not recorded). He doesn’t know the name of the person who changed him, though he wish he did so he could kill the damned man.

History: August was an average child for the standard of the victorian era. He was a very kind and proper boy, always dressed to perfection and alway being a good little boy. His mother was always at his side and coddling him and his younger sister when she was born 8 years after him. He adored her as well, always being very protective and walking her around with him to make sure no boy ever got too close to her even though she was fairly young. He lived the normal life until he turned 17, in which he entered the ending leg of the Crimean War. He was on the front lines for the most part and had gotten a few minor injuries that still cover his body. He returned home years later when the war had ended and he had grown into a man of 21.

He was happy to be home and stayed with his sister for the most part since his parents still had work and other things to take care of the then 14 year old. He was content with it since he had been unable to find a suitable wife for himself yet, which he was ok with. Of course his life was almost too perfect and it had to come crashing down soon enough. And it crashed. Hard.

A year after his return from the army, he was heading home with Lottie after party a friend of theirs had been throwing.On the way home, they had been stopped by a crazed man who was screaming profanities and other things at them. August tried to hide Lottie and get her away from him but he had no chance. The man attacked them brutally, slamming August to the ground and pinning Lottie under him, draining her of her blood first. August had tried to help as much as he could. He screamed and tried to rip the other off of his precious sister. But the frail looking vampire didn’t care. He just fed and when he was done with her he jumped on August and did the same to him.

He woke up a few days later deep in the coal mines he had worked in. He was gasping and coughing and his throat burned. He drank any water he could but it didn't help. If anything it made him thirstier. He forced himself to look around and what happened next haunts him. He ran into an old friend of his who also worked in the mines. He had been alone. His only weapon was the pick he had to get the coal from the walls. He didn’t even know what he was doing as he launched himself on his poor friend, draining him of his blood in a second and only realizing what he had done after it was too late. Being a fledgling as he was he wasn't sure on how he had been shifted and it was too late to save his friend. He couldn’t live with himself. So he hid himself in the mines till it was dark before he would leave. he was looking for his sister. And he never was able to find her.

Skipping forward with his life, he hadn't found his sister yet. He had eventually left his town and since that time had joined every war he had managed to get into. He had decided he should protect everyone he could since he couldn’t protect his sister. He was usually on the winning side with a few he hadn’t been but he hadn’t cared all that much. But the war that had the most effect on him was when he had moved to America and joined the Civil war. He was on the Southern side since at the time it was winning and he thought that people should be allowed to do what they want. When he was there he had gotten burned by a the fire from a cannon shot. When he went to the field hospital, they sent him into the town to be treated. The house he was sent into had a young girl only the age of 15 in it named Emory. She helped treat his wounds and would stay to talk with him for most of the day. He would read her stories from the books around the house and then tell her stories of his own. She was always interested in everything about him and wanted to know more. Eventually she would stay by his bedside all day and night, curling up by his side. In the middle of the night they would whisper soft secrets and talk about the future. He promised that when the war ended he would marry her and take her away from there and she was excited for it since at the time it was expected the south would win in a few weeks.

But of course that didn't happen. The south started losing and he grew frantic about losing as well. Losing her. He grew antsy at the idea since he had been hearing that towns were getting raided and civilians were accidentally killed or kidnapped. He wanted to keep her safe...So he got an idea. To shift her into a vampire like him. She could then live forever and be almost invincible with him by her side to keep her safe. So in one of these nights of whispered secrets he told her. He told her everything and she listened in awe about it before she agreed to the plan in almost an instant. The pair packed their things and left, heading north and away from the war, following the Underground Railroad.

There was a major flaw in his plan though. He didn't know how to shift anyone into the vampire form. He thought it was like the superstitions. You bite them and they shift. And so thats what he did. He bit into her neck and it took all his strength to not just drain her. He pulled off of her and was terrified to watch the blood roll down her throat and the fear and pain mixing in her eyes. He couldn’t figure out what was wrong and tried to keep her calm, kissing and mumbling soft things to her to try and keep her calm. He thought maybe this was supposed to happen...maybe it took awhile to go into effect. He was lying to himself and to her. He eventually told her she was fall asleep and when she woke up she would be like him. He was lying and he could tell but he was forcing himself to not believe it.

She did eventually die. And he did keep with her body for a few days just in case but it was a dark place in his mind that he was forced into. He eventually buried her and since then has constantly kept watch on it and tried to keep it as clean and nice as he could. He is still haunted by the fact he had been the one to kill her and often has flashbacks where he freezes and can’t function properly.

Though lately in his life he has kept his profile low and occupies his time by searching for his sister, even though she is most likely dead. If he didn't have her to look for though, he would be completely insane.
