Kraven is an aristrocratic Vampire monarch who is infatuated with power. He has secured reign over the Vampires during Viktor's hibernation. He is the epitome of the evolved Vampire species, a highly refined prince of darkness lavishing in the pleasures of sex, parties and manipulative power. On the surface, he maintains a calm distance from the archaic bloodbaths and violence of the relic vampire coverns. Yet, underneath he is mischievous and conniving, using his lieutenant, Soren, to do his dirty work. Kraven's debonair charm disenchants the only thing his power cannot grant him: the unattainable love of Selene. Selene has no respect for him and frequently questions his orders, damaging Kraven's rather massive but fragile ego. However, Kraven's pursuit of Selene becomes all too close to his real pursuit of power when he realizes that Selene's intuitions jeopardize the very plan that he has spun into action.
