Hed probably be a strategist or vanguard Imo
and I could see some interactions between him and some of the avengers and x men being fun nods to the comics
though if they do add him Im a little worried they're gonna try and use his modern character, instead of his more heroic self we all know and love
So, after the war, Levi ended up going into seclusion for the next 2 and a half years, disappearing off the face of the planet to all except for a handful of people (Nezu, Anan, Toshinori etc.)
Levi decided that during this time of peace, he wasn’t going to be the one to halt it by attacking some random bystander, so he devoted his life for those years into finally creating a cure for his bloodlust.
And after many, many failed attempts Levi finally created a drug that worked! The drug in question caused his heart rate to speed up drastically, causing the amount of blood pumped through his body to increase and recycle so fast that his bloodlust vanished due to the incredible amount of blood coursing through his veins, this drug also caused every aspect of Levi’s quirk to enhance (at the cost of his eyesight becoming pretty poor…) giving him all of the perks of his normal form, and none of the bloodlust that normally came with it.
For the first time since Levi was a kid he’s finally re-taken control of his life and has created a perfect merge between his heteromorphic traits and his humanity!
He ended up receiving a Nobel peace prize due to his scientific achievement, and distributed his new cure worldwide, allowing many blood drinking quirk users to have a chance at a normal life (Levi asked to not receive any of the money that this medicine would make as a sign of apology for all the lives he’d taken in pursuit of this cure.)
Users of this drug need a blood transfusion every two months or so or else the cure will begin to wear off.
Name: Levi Andrei
Hero name: Dracule
Age: 42
Height: 6’8ft (203.3cm)
Current status: Retired from hero work. (Leading biochemist)
Quirk: Vampire bat (perfected)
The user is a large heteromorph with bat like traits including fangs, large ears, and wing like flaps under their arms (these wings can grow larger if the user wills it) abilities include, superior strength (around 25 tons seems to be the limit) superior agility, superior speed, superior senses, echolocation, and clawed hooked feet capable of grabbing, acting as extra hands.
Downsides/weaknesses: the user is very sensitive to sunlight, their skin burns easily.
Personality: once quite reserved and reclusive Dr.Andrei has since become quite the extroverted and social man, regularly leaving his home and meeting up with friends of his, taking time to greet fans, and go to scientific conferences, showing a side of himself that people never knew existed. Though most of his time is still spent at U.A. Or with his family, his wife and 3 children.
Likes: Italian food (spaghetti is his favorite) his family, biochemical engineering, science, helping others through his discoveries, shady days, rain, video games, ice cream, reading
Dislikes: darkness (has severe nyctophobia) people who have the choice but refuse to change, spiders, hospitals, violence, spicy food, sensory deprivation chambers, strong smells, loud noises.
(I decided to retcon Levi’s death at the end of the war, and his injuries he sustained at Kamino, because I had so many more ideas, and truthfully I only gave him those injury’s and killed him off just to be angsty lol, this feels like a logical next step to his character, and I’m super happy with how this turned out!)
The second to last art is by the newcomer u/Ally_mj11 (thanks so much!)
No edits, just my line art, (dang his eyes are barely visible lol 😭
He’s 34 years old btw.
Give reasoning for your choice!
What the title says
For those who knew what his previous voice was like, I actually never intended for him to have a super deep voice, I kinda just went with what other people thought Levi should sound like, when in reality I always envisioned him with a bit of a lighter, slightly raspy, tired voice. But yeah, this is his voice
Gonna say this once more, read at your own risk, cause this is a psychological horror type story, that focuses heavily on Levi’s guilt for his past victims, (along with his severe nyctophobia) and how all of it has messed up his mind, so if you find stuff like this unsettling or you feel this might make you uncomfortable, I urge you to skip this piece (not that I’m super good at writing this stuff to begin with, but just a warning) I love you 🥹
Sleep had always been a luxury Levi Andrei couldn’t afford. It wasn't just his nocturnal nature—(though he downed enough caffeine daily to hospitalize a normal man just to force his body to stay awake during daylight hours.) It was what waited for him when he closed his eyes.
Every time darkness took over, he saw them. The faces of those his Quirk had consumed, their final moments etched into his memory with permanent, agonizing clarity. The deranged grins of death row inmates; the raw, unadulterated shock of a mugger who had caught Levi at a bad time.
And worst of all… the innocent ones. The ones who were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, betrayed by a man who had sworn to protect people, all because of a curse he couldn't cleanse from his blood, a disease he was born with, and had no way of curing.
Tonight was no different. Levi lay awake, staring up at the slow spin of the ceiling fan. Moonlight seeped through the window, painting the room in cool silver tones. (Anan knew he was terrified of the pitch dark, so she had given him the left side of the bed when they moved in—the side closest to the glass, closest to the light.)
Levi sat up slowly, pushing damp hair out of his eyes and resting his head against the headboard. He exhaled a long, shuddering breath, letting his gaze wander over the quiet room he’d grown to see as his safe space away from hero work, away from U.A.
A soft shift in the mattress pulled his attention sideways.
His expression softened as his eyes landed on Anan. She was perfectly framed by the moonlight, her chest rising and falling in a rhythmic, peaceful slumber. Leaning over, Levi pressed a light kiss to her cheek. His lips lingered for only a second, but in the quiet, his sensitive ears caught it: a soft, steady rhythm drumming just beneath her skin.
Thump. Thump.
Levi’s ears twitched. Almost automatically, he drifted lower, brushing his lips against the warm skin near the nape of her neck. His nose caught the faint, sweet scent of her shampoo, but beneath it lay something far more intoxicating.
The drumming grew louder.
His heart hammered against his ribs. He lowered his lips again, pressing them directly over her jugular vein. Her skin was radiant, hot against his mouth, and the pulse beneath it beat in his ears like a siren’s call—the undeniable sound of life moving through her.
Levi pulled his lips back just an inch and opened his mouth.
He pressed the tips of his fangs lightly against the pulsing skin. Anan shifted slightly in her sleep, stirring, but didn't wake.
Then, the trance shattered.
The sudden, violent roar of his own frantic heartbeat slammed into his skull. A wave of ice-cold nausea violently surged up his throat as the horror of what he was doing crashed down on him.
Levi recoiled as if burned. He ripped himself away from her, overbalancing and tumbling off the edge of the mattress. His shoulder slammed hard into the nightstand, sending a sharp pain through his frame, but he barely felt it. He scrambled to his feet, trembling, his hands flying to cover his mouth to keep from gagging.
His tall frame cast a long, suffocating shadow over the bed, veiling the serene moonlight that had just been protecting her. Disgusted by his own skin, he forced his body to turn and run.
He yanked the door open, only to be met by a wall of absolute darkness. The hallway he knew wasn't even there… it felt like a pitch-black void staring back at him, humming with hollow, phantom whispers that urged him deeper inside. Sweat broke out on his brow as his fingers locked around the brass doorknob. His hand shook violently. Panic gripped him; he didn't want to leave the safety of the room, didn't want to step away from the light.
Levi looked back over his shoulder one last time at Anan’s quiet, undisturbed form. Then, turning toward the black abyss, he stepped forward.
The darkness swallowed him whole, and the whispers rose to meet him.
The darkness was suffocating… closing in around him on all sides he couldn’t even see his hands in front of him, he searched for the wall to steady himself, but found only a fleshy, wet, pulsing texture, Levi recoiled quickly falling to the “ground” as he stumbled over his own feet, his breaths grew panicked and shallow as he forced himself back to his feet and continued walking
Step by step, the hallway seemed to stretch, twisting into an unnatural, cavernous expanse. The pulsing of the walls got louder, as if they were closing in on him with every step, yet he still saw nothing, as if the walls weren’t even there, dissolved by an overwhelming, suffocating blackness. Levi’s chest heaved, his breaths coming in short, ragged gasps as the light from the bedroom became absent, panic seizing his throat. The darkness… it was heavy. It pressed against his skin, cold and thick, suffocating him.
Then the silence was broken by a shallow, hoarse groan
“Monster…”
The word was a faint, wet rasp echoing from the abyss. Levi froze, his hands instinctively coming up to cover his ears, but the sound didn't stop, as if it was coming from within his skull, echoing over and over in a horrible symphony of voices.
“Murderer…”
“Look at you. Slinking in the dark like a wild animal…”
The voices multiplied, overlapping in a chaotic, deafening crescendo. He recognized them all. The death row inmate with the broken laugh. The mugger whose pulse had faded under his hands. And beneath them, the softer, agonized murmurs of the innocent— those who bled because of his curse, who called for a hero and were met with a monster…
Levi dropped to his knees, his breath leaving him in pained gasps, his entire body trembling as an impending sense of dread swallowed him.
“I… I’m so sorry… p-please…” Levi whimpered
“You’re no hero” a voice hissed, colder and sharper than the rest, cutting through his despair with agonizing clarity.
“You’re just like your father.”
"No," Levi choked out, his voice a pathetic sliver against the tide. "No, I'm—"
“Just a monster indulging in his sick desires…”
Panic surged, cold and electric. The darkness surged with the voices, swirling around him like a physical tide, reaching for him with unseen hands. Levi began crawling before pushing himself up and breaking into a desperate, blind sprint. His lungs felt like they were collapsing, his pulse hammered in his ears, his vision blurring as the spectral screams chased at his heels. He couldn't look back. If he looked back, the shadows would consume him completely.
Through the pitch-black fog, a single lifeline was revealed, a dark door outlined by dark wood, standing isolated in the void.
Levi threw his entire weight forward, reaching out with a trembling hand. The voices rose to a deafening shriek right behind his neck, the phantom sensation of cold breath brushing his skin just as his elongated fingers slammed onto the metal handle.
He forced the door open, threw himself across the threshold, and slammed it shut with a heavy, echoing CRACK
He threw his back against the wood, sliding down until his knees hit the floor, his chest heaving as he tried to suck in air. The screaming voices cut off instantly, replaced by his quiet quivering breaths.
Levi opened his eyes slightly to find another room shrouded in the black fog… except this one was different.
In the back of the room stood a floating sink with a mirror slightly above it, dimly lit by a small light…
Levi forced himself to stand as he began scrambling towards the sink, towards the slightest trace of light…
Levi crashed against the sink, letting the small sanctuary of the light engulf him as he dropped his head into the basin, his knuckles turning whiter than usual as he grips the edge of the sink, his back arching as a wet, harsh gag echoes around the darkness, as vomit hits the once dry drain.
Levi hung his head low between his shoulders, his chest heaving in short, ragged gasps, saliva dripping from his lips into the sink as he tries to regain his composure, turning on the fosset as he drenched his hands in the cool water and splashing his face, before leaning his head against the mirror.
“You think you can atone…?” Said a horrific amalgamation of the voices…
Levi shuttered, his chest heaving as he tried to drag air back into his burning lungs. Sweat dripped from his jaw, splashing against the wet ceramic.
Slowly, reluctantly, Levi lifted his head.
His reflection stared back at him from the glass, framed by the surrounding void. In the dim light, his eyes glowed with a faint, predatory red, his sharp fangs still slightly exposed. The sight alone turned his stomach, this was him… a monster, but as he leaned closer—pressing his forehead directly against the cold glass of the mirror—the image didn't just show him.
Directly behind his reflection, emerging from the dark fog, were them.
Shadowy, gaunt figures all crowded around him in the glass. Their faces were stretched, skeletal masks, their eye sockets dark, hollow pits punctuated by tiny, piercing white and red embers. Crimson stains smeared across their necks and chests—the permanent marks of his thirst. They all molded together, overlapping into a horrific blob of flesh with the only indicator of them being seperate being their somewhat isolated heads, they just stared, silently hovering over him like a choir of specters waiting for him to break.
Levi inhaled sharply, before his mind began to break, and he broke down into tears, dropping to his knees.
“I’m s-so sorry, I-I don’t know what you want from me…” Levi said in between quiet sobs.
Suddenly the hoard of souls reached toward him, its hand forcing itself through the mirror in a heaping fleshy mess, before grabbing Levi’s arm and pulling itself forward once more.
“You can never atone for what you’ve done… you’re place is set… with us…”
Levi scrambled back in absolute terror, the entity’s grip tightening on his skin. “N-no! Please! I’m sorry!” he shrieked, violently yanking his arm free from its grasp.
Gaining his feet in a flash of blind panic, Levi drove his fist straight into the mirror. Glass shattered, biting deep into his knuckles, but the sharp pain didn't phase him. He drove his fist into the glass again and again, smashing the reflection until the image was nothing more than splintered, bloody fragments.
Levi stared at the broken remains of the mirror, before he finally snapped, he dropped to the ground and scrambled to the side of the sink, out of view from the shattered mirror, pulling his legs to his chest, trying to become small, hoping, praying, that the darkness would somehow forget about him and leave him alone… alone with his guilt, alone to try and fail to atone for his sins, forever…
“Please... please... I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry... I'm not a monster... please...” he whimpered through bated breath, trying to drown out the lingering whispers in his head.
He wanted to sit there, let the darkness consume him, let himself let himself rot in his own guilt. He deserved it after all…
darkness doesn’t last forever though does it?…
Levi?
Oh my god, Levi!
Levi can you hear me?
Suddenly, a warm pair of arms wrapped around him in a tight hug, causing the black fog to evaporate, violently dissolving around him as he was pulled back into reality sobbing and bleeding in the corner of the bathroom, with a shards of a broken mirror lying on the ground next to him.
“It’s okay… it’s okay… you’re safe, you aren’t alone… I’m here”
End.
Thanks for reading! This is my first time delving into this sort of writing and I hope I didn’t make it cringe lol
Anyways, here’s a cookie for making it here! 🍪
I am not the creator of Bo that honor goes to the goat u/SuperNovaHowl
I had a blast drawing these ones🙂↕️🙂↕️
Name: Levi Andrei
Quirk: Vampire bat
Abilities: the user is born as a large heteromorph with the traits of a vampire bat including a more animalistic look, piercing fangs in the mouth, large satellite ears, fangs serrated claws on both their fingers and toes, and large wings connected to their arms, as for abilities, the user has enhanced speed, strength, senses, and echo location, these abilities are maintained and enhanced via the consumption of human blood, upon consumption the users mind becomes scrambled, giving the user an extreme “high” making the user near impervious to any thing around them or any pain that might be inflicted upon them
Unfortunately this all results in a near insatiable thirst for blood in the user, rarely if ever being truly satisfied.
Height: 6’8
Hair color: black/white fluff
Eye color: blood red
Levi’s notes on the form:
-I’ve only ever truly been in control of this form a handful of times… and those handfuls were caused by me taking in my fill of blood, wether it be from a poor soul of a villain that happened to cross my path while I was in that state, or a civilian that other pro heroes had to pry me off of (I’m not very proud of that…).
-But when I was in control, I felt whole, the lingering, alluring urge was gone, even if it was but for a moment.
-Alas, good things can’t last forever.
-I will continue searching for a cure to my monster, or at the very least, quell the bloodlust that comes with it.
Extra info
If the user is devoid of the consumption of blood, they will undergo a transformation that results in them losing most of their bat like traits in favor of a more vampiric look, and due to the smaller body the user can recycle their own blood within their body for a month or so before absolutely needing to consume more blood, failure to do so will result in extreme sickness leading to death.
Levi has been able to cheat this timer by using several different drugs he’s invented to stall his bloodlust as he tries to find a safe alternative to human blood, though he has yet to find one.
(All art is mine)
Ooki doki here’s what happened:
He had a rough childhood, born and raised in Transylvania Romania and raised to take the spot of his notorious villain father Vladd Tepes the 3rd (villain alias: Dracula) and did some questionable things in the pursuit of satisfaction.
A lot of yall know how that goes though, he ended up finding some good folks who taught him to do good, and he turned on his dear old dad, and ended up ending his reign and after another series of events, ended up at U.A. And his future since then has been pretty great.
He became a chemistry teacher
Taught some students
Became best friends with a giant of a man who was also a teacher
Met a beautiful girl (Anan Kurose, Aka: Thirteen)
Got married
Had a kid
Went through a design change… a couple of times (I ended up settling on a consistent design)
Did some hero stuff
Fought at Kamino
Lost his sight and his arms
Awakened his quirk
Adjusted to his new circumstances
Had another kid
Did more hero stuff
Fought at gunga
Got his quirk stolen
Adjusted again
Had a not so functional power suit made (bro ain’t all might 😭)
Lost
Died
Came back for a while (via retcon)
And now is just kinda stuck in his prime until I get tired of drawing him 🥹✌🏼
Here’s his info for those who don’t know
Name: Levi Andrei
Hero name: Dracule
Age: 34-35
Height: 6’5
Quirk: Vampire bat
Quirk type: Heteromorphic
(The user is a massive bat human with increased strength, speed, senses, as well as wings jutting from his forearms, and a very monstrous appearance. This natural form can be suppressed by effectively starving the user of blood, (his natural craving and trigger to increase his natural abilities) causing the users form to shift to a more human form, though he still has some of his bat traits.)
Personality: he’s kind, but also distant, and a little slow to open up to people out of the fear of hurting them.
Fun facts: He’s nocturnal to a degree, doing most of his paperwork and hero work during the night, and teaching (or sleeping) during the day.
(He tried to fix his sleeping habits once he got married, but failed)
He absolutely loves Italian food, spaghetti and garlic bread specifically, it’s by far his favorite meal.
Sunlight burns his skin easily, and drains his energy and stamina extremely quickly, resulting in him wearing big clothes a lot of the time during the day.
Oki doki! That’s him! Glad to be back yall!
