Most vampires were blessed with one ability that they would hone to perfection. Samael was no different. But his ability was the most misunderstood of all. Everyone knew he was simply blessed with many abilities, but that wasn't the case.
Those abilities he was using were all stolen.
Only a few knew his actual ability: the late king, the late crown prince Dyrroth, Lara, and Alexander Bloodfang. And all of them were dead. Not that he was the person who took their life, but the dead tell no tales. Hence, not a single living being knew his actual ability anymore... or maybe there was, Heliot.
Of course, just like everyone else, there were repercussions for using these abilities. For example, Samael couldn't just absorb anyone's ability or too many people if he wanted to stay sane or keep his consciousness. Abusing this ability could make him forget who he was and let these voices of those he had absorbed take over his body.
