My name is Jesse Ryder....and I'm a vampire. Perhaps not the kind you have grown accustomed to reading about or watching on TV. During the day, I'm as "normal" as the next guy. I drink, I eat, I bleed, and if mortally wounded....I die. But when the sun goes down I become much more than human. I can instantly heal from nearly any wound. I become more powerful, more agile, my senses keener. And I lust for the taste of blood! A lust that can sometimes be unbearable. A lust that I have fought to resist every day for over 200 years. For my one desire in life is to become human once more. And that can only happen with the death of the one who started all of this some 500 years ago. An ancient evil who once called himself Lucien Webb.
