Sooha

The New Transfer Student at Decelis Academy.
     Sooha 
  • Action Girl: Sooha with her superhuman strength. She's been shown to be capable of carrying entire beds, lifting up chunks of concrete rubble, bodyslamming people much taller than her and stopping someone travelling at superhuman speed, among other things.
  • All of the Other Reindeer: Sooha's superhuman strength that she had for some reason made people mistake her for a vampire, which left her lonely until she met Chris. Her reputation worsened after Chris died because of a vampire and people considered her the main suspect.
  • Audience Surrogate: In the earlier episodes where she and the readers were getting to know the vampires and werewolves.
  • Big Anime Eyes: Sooha has the biggest eyes in the cast, complementing her Naïve Everygirl charm.
  • Bookworm: Sooha's main hobby is reading, and it's even something she and Heli bond over. One of the reasons Sooha enrolls into Decelis is to gain access to their famously extensive library, mostly in the hopes to find an answer on how to destroy the vampire kind once and for all in order to avenge Chris' death, but girl still likes to read. Doubles as the badass type due to her being an Action Girl and cute type as she is considered to be a very cute and beautiful girl.
  • Crush Blush: She and Heli are prone to blushing and stumbling their words around each other, Sooha more so.
  • Cursed with Awesome: Sooha's superhuman strength is cool, she never saw it that way until meeting the vampires due to her troubled childhood.
  • Curtains Match the Window: Sooha has a pink streak in her hair that matches her pink eyes.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: Sooha has been ostracized by people for being mistaken as a vampire her entire life, lost her only childhood friend to a vampire and has been forced to run from place to place to escape suspicion from others. Needless to say, she arrives at Decelis Academy with a troubled past.
  • Doom Magnet: Sooha has been implied to be a bringer of bad luck to the towns she has travelled to or lived in.
  • Dude Magnet: Heli, Khan and Dardan are all in love with her. Heli's other brothers (except Solon and Jakah) also seems to have a degree of interest in her.
  • Fantastic Racism: Sooha holds a very strong hatred towards vampires because of her ability of superhuman strength she was mysteriously born with, leading her to be constantly mistaken as a vampire and in consequence repeatedly had to move to different cities. Also, a vampire killed her only friend, Chris, when she was very young. The main reason Sooha transfers to the prestigious Decelis Academy in the town of Riverfield, is due to the fact that the school is known for having a strict policy against vampires. Sooha transfers there believing that by being a student in a school with such a policy, she will never be mistaken for a vampire ever again, let alone come face-to-face with one within its walls (or so she thought...)
  • Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: The Tiny Girl to everyone's Huge Guy. Sooha is stands at an average build and height but is noticeably shorter than her male peers.
  • Innocently Insensitive: Has said some rather mean things in front of vampires in front of Heli and the others, who are vampires. She even gifted the brothers items that weaken vampires on their birthday.
  • Irony: The main reason Sooha came to Decelis Academy is to avoid vampires, and yet the first thing she does there is unknowingly befriend seven of them.
  • Kid Hero: Teen Hero, as Sooha is said to only be 17.
  • Lady and Knight: Both her and her past life are the Bright Lady to Heli's White Knight.
  • Long Hair Is Feminine: Sooha's dark brown hair is waist-length.
  • Love Interest: She and Heli have a mutual attraction towards each other. Doubles as Reincarnation Romance since their past lives also had feelings for each other.
  • Muscles Are Meaningless: Sooha is petite and slim-built in comparison to the taller vampires and bulkier werewolves but can punch above her own weight, even taking down the strongest members of the werewolves in Episode 6 all by herself.
  • Naïve Newcomer: Sooha is one on her first day at school as she's just recently transferred to Decelis Academy when the story starts.
  • Nice Girl: Sooha is friendly and cheerful, and honest and expressive with her feelings. She cares a lot about the people around her, and is always ready to protect them. She is open about how she feels and can stand up for what she thinks is right, although at times she can be a little naive and gullible.
  • Pink Means Feminine: Sooha's the token girl of the main characters and pink is her main Color Motif. She has big magenta pink eyes and a matching streak in her hair. Whenever she talks with telepathy, her bubble's color is pink.
  • Protectorate: Becomes this to everyone in the story.
  • Really Royalty Reveal: Episode 26 reveals that Sooha is the reincarnation of Princess Selen.
  • Secret-Keeper: Solon eventually entrusts her with his secret: the fact that he's half-werewolf.
  • The Smurfette Principle: Sooha is the only female character in a main cast of male characters.
  • Super-Strength: Sooha's ability. People mistook her for a vampire because of this.
  • Teleportation: Sooha's second ability. It works uniquely compared to most examples: she can turn into fog and travel anywhere in an instant.
  • Token Human: The only main character that isn't either a vampire or werewolf.

The Vampire Brothers

A group of seven boys who are pretty popular in Decelis Academy. They're also secretly vampires.

(members listed by order of appearance)


    Tropes for the vampires as a whole 

    Heli 
Member he's based on: Heeseung

Heli is the main character who is described as a warm-hearted vampire who has a lot of patience. He has telepathic ability so he often talks to his brother without the exchange of words. The appearance of a mysterious girl, Sooha, makes him feel a sense of longing.


    Jino 
Member he's based on: Jake

Jino is someone who openly expresses what he is thinking and has an extroverted personality. This extroverted and upbeat personality makes him able to make a lot of friends and be popular at school. He also doesn’t really care whether a person in front of him is a human or a vampire and he treats them equally.

He has a special ability that is to control fire, so it’s possible for him to save his brothers in a crucial moment.


  • Ace Pilot: Children Of Vamfield reveals that Jino is a pilot. In the prologue, he's piloting the plane to the brothers' next destination.
  • All-Loving Hero: Is said to like everyone no matter what. He doesn't really care about the difference between humans and vampires, treating them all equally. This sentiment allows him to make friends with lots of people far and wide, making him incredibly popular at school. That being said, werewolves seem to be an exception, though even that is downplayed as Jino doesn't insult them as much as his brothers do.
  • Beware the Nice Ones: Like Heli, Jino is one of the more sweeter vampires, being a carefree and cheerful guy who's always smiling and is nothing but friendly and kind to everyone, as in, everyone. This is the same guy that once coldly tortured a vampire by repeatedly burning his throat to get information out of him.
  • Custom Uniform: Jino wears a grey sweater vest instead of a tie.
  • Cute Little Fangs: Unlike his brothers, Jino's fangs are prominent and visible even when not in bloodsucking mode.
  • Even the Loving Hero Has Hated Ones: Downplayed especially in comparison to his brothers (even Solon), but not even all-loving Jino likes the Sunshine City werewolves that much. He can at least be in their presence without losing his temper.
  • Fiery Redhead: Literally with the fire powers, and is shown even more when he gets pissed off.
  • Fiery Stoic: Despite said powers, he's a pretty happy and calm guy, moreso than his own brothers (except maybe Shion and Noa respectively).
  • Fire Is Red: Jino has bright red hair and his ability is fire manipulation.
  • Fun Personified: Alongside Shion, the two appear to be the happy-go-lucky ones of the group and are nearly always smiling whenever we see them.
  • Genki Guy: Not to Shion's extent, but Jino is a guy who's always bright, carefree, has an upbeat and extroverted personality, often wears his heart on his sleeve, candid about his feelings and openly expresses what he's thinking.
  • Gentle Giant: Jino is the tallest amongst his brothers and also one of the sweetest.
  • Mellow Fellow: One of the more laid-back brothers, Jino is just happy to be here.
  • Nice Guy: Not unlike Heli, Jino is an ever so friendly, approachable, respectful and kind vampire who always somehow brightens up the scene whenever he is around. He's also notably the only one amongst his brothers who doesn't spark up any fights with the werewolves.
  • Only Sane Man: Not like Jakah or Solon, but Jino is also one of the boys in the group to not try and impress Sooha to a degree, such as when the other boys (excluding Jakah and Solon) try to do so by pretending to enjoy her hobby of reading and admits "no one ever reads other than Heli".
  • Perpetual Smiler: You will always see that adorable fanged smile on Jino's face.
  • Playing with Fire: Jino is a pyrokinetic with the energetic, fiery personality and hair color to match.
  • Power Stereotype Flip: Jino's fire powers stand opposite to his soft and kind nature.
  • Red Is Heroic: Jino has a red Color Motif (red hair and red telepathy bubbles) and is one of the main characters.
  • Significant Green-Eyed Redhead: Has bright red hair and green eyes and is one of the main protagonists of the story.
  • Tranquil Fury: On the rare instances where he's mad, rather than being explosive as his powers would make you assume, Jino is completely calm, even showing a surprisingly cold and ruthless side to him.

    Shion 
Member he's based on: Sunoo

The other one who enjoys making friends is Shion. Shion is the childish and troublemaker one. He likes doing his own things in his own way and is very honest and straightforward with his feelings. Sometimes this honesty makes others feel uncomfortable but he doesn’t care whether his brothers think it’s complicated or not. He wants to befriend Sooha despite the objections from his brothers, especially from Solon.


  • All There in the Manual: The Instagram posts about information on the vampires reveal that aside from the ability to stick to any surface (described as "pull ability"), Shion has another power: an "attraction ability" that makes anyone do whatever he wishes if they make eye contact. He uses that ability in later chapters.
  • Annoying Younger Sibling: Shion is known for being a troublemaker and refuses to abide by the rules, which tends to frustrate his brothers from time to time.
  • Beware the Silly Ones: While he may come off as cute, clumsy and bubbly most of the time, Shion doesn't hesitate to show his tougher side in order to protect his friends, including Sooha.
  • Bratty Half-Pint: His behavior at his worst, as for how sweet and cheery he is, Shion can be quite the cheeky brat, even at serious moments, and pouts miserably whenever he doesn't get what he wants. Just ask Solon.
  • Brutal Honesty: He's straightforward and honest about his feelings, even if it might make others uncomfortable at times.
  • Curtains Match the Window: Has light blonde hair and gold eyes.
  • Custom Uniform: Shion wears a grey sweater vest instead of a tie.
  • The Cutie: His cute appearance, big smile, and child-like personality make him this.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Surprisingly shows some shades of this.
    Shion: [regarding Solon's secret ability] You have the ability to whine and complain. Such an extraordinary talent...
  • Dumb Blonde: While not stupid and can actually be manipulative to get whatever he wants, Shion is a bit ditzy and is genuinely unaware of his lack of filter.
  • Fun Personified: Alongside Jino, the two appear to be the happy-go-lucky ones of the group and are nearly always smiling whenever we see them.
  • The Gadfly: Befitting being a mischievous troublemaker who refuses to abide by rules, Shion is this. Shion doesn't listen to his brothers and always does what he wants, like befriending Sooha despite Solon's passionate and vocal objections, he teases Solon a lot, from calling him silly to saying his special ability is whining and complaining. When the vampires planned a date with Sooha at the town square, Shion tricked them by making them think the time to meet up was 7 o'clock while he secretly met up with Sooha at 5 o'clock, two hours ahead.
  • Genki Guy / Keet: Compared to his more serious brothers (except the equally cheerful Jino), Shion's much more bubbly, energetic and livelier, no matter the circumstances.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: Shion's blond curls match his bright and friendly personality.
  • Hypnotic Eyes: Shion's second ability, known as "mesmerization". One look in his eyes and and you will be forced to do his bidding.
  • Innocently Insensitive: Because of his bluntness, Shion can be unaware that some of his words are harsh. Him being the most prone to say hurtful things about werewolves with Solon (who is half-werewolf himself) is just one example.
  • I Just Want to Have Friends: Being the most extroverted of the brothers, Shion is said to enjoy making friends. He's pouty and sulking whenever Solon tells them not to befriend Sooha and persistent to do so anyway.
  • In Touch with His Feminine Side: Wears a pink maid-like ensemble while helping Sooha clean her room. He's also a bit of a Drama Queen.
  • Jerkass to One: Downplayed, but Shion seems to like pushing Solon's buttons a lot, often not listening to him, immediately ditching him for Sooha, targeting him for jokes and giving him snide remarks, plus loudly insulting werewolves within his earshot. To Solon's credit, he doesn't just sit back and take the abuse, often giving him as good as he gets.
  • Large Ham: Shion has a flair for the dramatics and giving his all in everything.
  • Nice Guy: In spite of his brattiness and insensitivity, Shion is quite the sweetheart and out of his brothers, he's easily the nicest and friendliest one to Sooha right next to Heli. He also encourages Sooha to confide in him when things get difficult, admitting that he had to go through an adequate amount of struggles throughout life like her, (much to Sooha's disbelief). 
  • Perpetual Smiler: Always seen with a bright smile.
  • Plucky Comic Relief: As a contrast to his more serious brothers, Shion is naturally lighthearted and does or says something funny, even after a pretty dark moment.
  • The Pollyanna: Considering their Dark and Troubled Past, it makes Shion's bright and happy personality surprising (in a good way).
  • Running Gag: Being the Plucky Comic Relief of the brothers, Shion's got a few gags up his sleeves.
    • Shion not listening to Solon's passionate and vocal objections about Sooha happens a lot.
    • Shion tends to try and impress Sooha every chance he gets, from excitedly running to her after scoring a point in nightball, pretending to be interested in sophisticated topics such as quantum physics, to sharing her hobby of reading (although denied by Jino), and enjoying the task of cleaning (which he actually finds tiring).
  • Sitcom Archnemesis:
    • His and Solon's petty spats are Played for Laughs.
    • Shion hates the Sunshine City werewolves, but he seems to have it out for Tahel in particular, and the two spend their screentime together butting heads.
  • Supernatural Gold Eyes: Shion's gold eyes are fittingly used for his mesmerization ability.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Like the guy he's based on, Shion seems to have a thing for mint chocolate ice cream.
  • Wall Crawl: It's assumed that Shion can do this in addition to hanging from ceilings as he states that he is able to stick to walls.

    Solon 
Member he’s based on: Sunghoon

Solon is calm and confident by nature. He is the intelligent one and somehow can come across as arrogant and mean. He seems to be confident, but actually, he feels inferior to his brothers and believes that he is fundamentally different from his brothers. While trying to hide his inferiority by acting cool, he is also trying to hide a huge secret.


    Jaan 
Member he’s based on: Jay

Jaan is the type that is solid as a rock. He can often seem a little closed off and blunt. This makes it hard for others to get close to him. But despite his cold appearance, he deeply cares about his brothers and he is someone who is considerate and thoughtful. It’s just that he needs a little time to show his true feeling.


  • Angry Eyebrows: Jaan is first introduced to the readers as a very fierce and angry-looking character with sharp, angry eyebrows. Given his ability of supernatural strength and de facto role as the muscle of the vampire group, it fits him.
  • Badass Driver: Children Of Vamfield reveals that Jaan's job is a driver.
  • Big Brother Instinct: Jaan's other notable trait aside from his stoicism is his deep love and care for his brothers and their general safety and well-being. This trait is best shown in the Troubled Backstory Flashback where he carried Jakah as the group ran away from an Angry Mob.
  • The Big Guy: Jaan serves as this to the group, as he is one of the heavy hitters with his Super-Strength.
  • Cold Ham: Jaan is prone to as much dramatics as resident Large Ham Shion, complete with Bishie Sparkle, all while never losing his stoic demeanor.
  • The Comically Serious: No matter how absurd the situation is, Jaan will never show an ounce of emotion.
  • Custom Uniform: Jaan doesn't wear his jacket and rolls his sleeves up.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: Jaan has a small black hoop earring on his right ear only.
  • Genius Bruiser: Aside from being The Big Guy, he is one of the more logical members in the group along with Jakah.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: Not to Solon's extent, but it's still there. He even has the eyebrows to match!
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He often comes across as cold, distant, blunt, a bit intimidating and indifferent, making it hard for others to get close to the standoffish vampire. Despite his often emotionless exterior, Jaan actually cares deeply for his brothers. Since he's considerate and thoughtful deep down, it takes more effort for him to show his true feelings. And once you get to know him he is quite the helpful and funny guy.
  • Not So Above It All: Sooha really brings out Jaan's dorky side, because out of all the brothers joining Shion in crazy antics just to impress her, it's him.
  • Super-Strength: Jaan's ability. The only person who can rival his strength is Sooha.
  • The Stoic: Jaan comes across as emotionless. He does cares about things like his brothers, though, plus can act like a dramatic dork.

    Jakah 
Member he’s based on: Jungwon

Jakah is the smartest one among the seven vampire brothers. He’s quick and knows how to make rational decisions. It helps him to be able to protect the identity of his brothers while they live among humans. He believes that he needs to do more to protect his brothers.


  • Academic Athlete: Not only is Jakah the most intelligent vampire in their group, he's also the one who's the most passionate of Nightball.
  • Aloof Ally: Downplayed, as while he feels the same mysterious connection towards Sooha and eventually lets her be a part of their group with the two getting along well, Jakah is the in-between regarding the vampires' actual feelings towards her, with him being mostly indifferent while Solon remains distant from Sooha and the rest immediately warmly welcomed her to the group with open arms.
  • Aura Vision: Jakah's secondary ability. Jakah is hypersensitive to detecting waves of vampiric energy, allowing him to detect the presence of other vampires that might be around. At one point, he detects rather strong waves from Sooha, and although he deduces that she is definitely not a vampire, he also points out that "she's definitely not an ordinary human".
  • Hidden Depths: Children Of Vamfield reveals that Jakah is a surgeon. He's also good at hacking.
  • The Lancer: Jakah is Heli's right hand man, being the overall planner of the group and being more pragmatic than him. And whenever Heli is out of commission, Jakah temporarily takes over the helms of leadership.
  • Long-Haired Pretty Boy: Is a Bishōnen like his brothers and his white locks are grown past his shoulders, long enough for him to need to tie it up in a half-ponytail.
  • Mature Younger Sibling: Jakah is implied to be one of the younger brothers, and him being The Lancer and The Reliable One of the group says a lot about his maturity.
  • Mystical White Hair: Has pure white hair and is one of the more mysterious brothers from Sooha's point of view.
  • Not So Above It All: For all his maturity and rationality, even Jakah has his mischievous moments. His Establishing Character Moment has him screwing with Jaan. Children Of Vamfield also revealed that he was a bit of a prankster as a little kid.
  • Only Sane Man: Being The Smart Guy and The Reliable One of the group, he's obviously this, given that he actually takes what Solon's opinions to heart and constantly tells the vampires to keep a lower profile and not to interact with Sooha so much for her own safety.
  • Passionate Sports Girl: Guy version. Jakah, along with Noa, seems the most into Nightball, given that they were introduced practicing for the upcoming game.
  • The Perfectionist: Jakah is a perfectionist who believes he needs to do more and tends to be hard on himself when he fails at something like protecting his brothers.
  • Pragmatic Hero: Like Solon, he has his moments of this, befitting his roles as smart guy and decision maker of the brothers. Some of his decisions imply that he's probably even more pragmatic than him.
  • The Reliable One: With his intelligence, sensibility and ability to take charge when needed, Jakah is very dependable, hence why he's Heli's second-in-command.
  • The Smart Guy: Described to have the superior intellect out of his brothers and is the smartest and most clever one. Jakah shows it with the way he can think quickly on his feet to decide the best course of action and is also well-known for his rational decision-making.
  • Super-Speed: Jakah's ability. Sooha describes his supernatural speed as so fast that it felt like he was teleporting in Chapter 10, when Jakah saved Sooha from a bunch of low-level vampires that were after her.
  • Those Two Guys: Befitting being the two youngest brothers, whether they would be playing Nightball or fighting bad guys, Jakah and Noa will always be seen together.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: Jakah scolds his brothers for showing Sooha their unique abilities so rashly out of fear of exposing their true identities. 

    Noa 
Member he’s based on: Ni-ki
IThe youngest among the seven brothers. Noa is a character that has a lot of potential. He can control the darkness and there’s nothing he can’t do as long as he makes good use of his power. As the youngest vampire, he wants to be as cool as his brothers but sometimes he can be a little hasty or clumsy.
  • All There in the Manual: The Instagram posts about information on the vampires reveal that aside from control over shadows, Noa can also control nocturnal animals. He hasn't done this yet in the actual comic.
  • The Baby of the Bunch: Giving that the person he's based on is the youngest member of ENHYPEN, Noa is this as well, having an innocent and quiet personality. Supported in the flashbacks to their childhood, where compared to them he looks much younger, almost like a toddler.
  • Big Brother Worship: Openly looks up to his older brothers and often goes along with whatever they're doing. Best shown during his interactions with Jakah.
  • Big Little Brother: Noa is the youngest but also one of the taller vampires. Children Of Vamfield reveals his height to be an impressive 184 cm.
  • Book Dumb: When the vampires were at the library to impress Sooha by pretending to share her love of reading like Heli, Noa... wasn't pretending very well.
    Jakah: You're holding the book upside down, Noa.
  • Casting a Shadow: His ability is shadow magic. One of the things he can do is prevent people from leaving with their own shadows.
  • Custom Uniform: Noa wears a black turtleneck sweater under his shirt and has no tie.
  • I Got Bigger: As a child, Noa was the smalllest. In the present he grew to be very tall.
  • Informed Flaw: Was once described to be mischievous, and also said to be hasty and clumsy in his attempts to accomplish his desire to keep up with the others, be useful and as cool as them, but not once has he shown any signs of having any of those traits. Children Of Vamfield shows the mischievous streak when he plays a prank with Jakah.
  • Kuudere: Although not as cold as the likes of Solon, Noa is this in spades.
  • Nice Guy: Noa is kind, accepting and deeply empathetic, even as a child he's nothing but comforting to a sickly man even when he's begging the brothers to go.
  • Not So Stoic: Despite his chill nature Noa is not afraid to have his emotional moments (like a face of pure shock).
  • Passionate Sports Girl: Guy version. Noa, along with Jakah, seems the most into Nightball, given that they were introduced practicing for the upcoming game.
  • Purple Is Powerful: Noa has a purple Color Motif (purple hair and telepathy bubbles) and his powers of darkness manipulation are noted to have a lot of potential.
  • The Quiet One: Has less lines compared to the others.
  • Shrinking Violet: He seems more timid and quieter his older brothers, and even has dark purple hair to match.
  • The Stoic: Noa doesn't express much emotions, and generally has a poker face on, even when interacting with his brothers and Sooha. Children Of Vamfield shows that he was like this even as a child.
  • Those Two Guys: Befitting being the two youngest brothers, whether they would be playing Nightball or fighting bad guys, Jakah and Noa will always be seen together.
