Janus Hassildor

"The Count of Skingrad is not all he seems. Let's just say I'm not the only one who enjoys his evenings."

- Vicente Valtieri

Janus Hassildor is the Count of Skingrad and reputed to be a powerful mage. In 3E 383 (fifty years before the Oblivion Crisis), Janus and his wife Rona Hassildor fell victim to vampires. Both survived, but were infected with the disease and became vampires themselves. While Janus came to accept his new life, Rona saw her vampiric existence only as a curse and refused to drink the blood needed to keep her healthy; she soon fell into a coma caused by despair and malnutrition. Janus has been looking for a way to cure his wife to help her find the peace she craves.

As a count, Janus has proven to be very successful. Despite his private life away from the world, his people have come to love and respect him. Only a few people are aware the count is a vampire. Two of his advisors, Shum gro-Yarug and Hal-Liurz, know and keep his secret. They work as his representatives and handle almost everything on his behalf. It is these two that are commonly encountered when visiting the castle.

Janus surprisingly hates other vampires. He feels no kinship toward them and sees them as mindless creatures who have given in to animal instinct. He also doesn't want to bring suspicion to himself by fraternising with them. Because of this he has no tolerance for other vampires who enter the area.
