Ferid Bathory

Ferid Bathory 「フェリド・バートリー, Ferido Bātorī」 is a seventh progenitor among the Vampires. He is the one who killed Yūichirō's family thus fueling his desire for revenge against all vampires.

Appearance
Ferid's attire is composed of several portions. It consists of a suit, a long coat, thigh high boots and a poncho to complement the noble appearance.

He dons a pair of light-colored pants and a vest-like undershirt which is embellished by dark colored rhombuses and a decorative cut. The pants and undershirt are overlapped by a long, light colored coat that appears to possess a dark colored pocket situated on the coat's lower left side and dark sleeves that are adorned by stud-like buttons and ruffles around the cuffs. The coat is kept together by a belt and a sash. Over his coat, Ferid wears a visibly embellished poncho that features various metals and dark-colored shoulder embroideries. The poncho is held together around Ferid's dark-colored color by a long ribbon and decorative ruffles. His dark colored, thigh-high boots feature four stud-like buttons along the thigh, resembling the buttons along his coat cuffs.



Personality
While Ferid seem to be kind and polite on the outside the truth is that he is a sadist that enjoys seeing the hopes of the humans being crushed and the expression on their face when that happens. He also showed no qualms or remorse upon killing human children, seeing them as nothing more than livestock and lambs. Also, he was shown to consider the humans to be ugly, cowards, greedy and somewhat arrogant.

Ferid has shown to be attracted to Krul Tepes, but in truth he is attracted to her political powers which he admitted, when she confronted him with that, that he can't deny it. After Mika was turned into a vampire, Ferid was shown to enjoy teasing him, calling what he feels for Yu is love and Yu is Mika's dear angel and precious princess.

Story
Ferid prevented a group of human children led by Mikaela and Yuichiro from escaping the vampire the world. He massacred all of them, but failed to kill Yuichiro after Mika sacrificed himself to give him time to escape. Afterwards he proceeded to finish off a dying Mika, but was stopped by Krul Tepes.

Years later, Ferid reported to Mika, now a vampire, about Yuichiro's membership in the JIDA and began questioning Mika if he'll save Yu. Afterwards, Ferid launched an attack on Shinjuku.

Natural Abilities
As a vampire, Ferid is naturally far more stronger and powerful than a human. Being a founder, he is very strong among vampires. He was strong enough to deal a powerful blow to Guren during the campaign at Shinjuku. However, the founders who are above him are far stronger than him.
