Origin
Quickshot was an immigrant vampire to New York. He was disillusioned by his sect’s plan to take over Wall Street and became a member of a vampire clan called the Forgiven led by Raizo Kodo alongside Visigoth, Inka, Nighteyes, and Sanjay. The Forgiven are a special group of vampires because they refuse to give into their kind’s predatory ways and feed on human blood. Quickshot is the youngest member of the Forgiven and was taken in by Raizo when he also chose to reject the basic nature of vampirism. Quickshot is young but a valuable member of the Forgiven that possesses amazing marksmanship skills with his pistol and uncanny precision.
