{{DEFAULTSORT:Straud, Vladislaus}}
'''Vladislaus Straud''', also known as '''Count Vladislaus Straud IV''' or '''Vlad''', is a pre-made [[vampire]] who resides in [[Forgotten Hollow]], the [[world]] introduced in ''[[The Sims 4: Vampires]]''. He lives on his own in the [[List of Forgotten Hollow lots#Straud Mansion|Straud Mansion]] lot and begins with §20,000.
 
Line 38 ⟶ 37:
By sunset, Vladislaus starts his daily routine which includes playing some haunting melodies on the [[pipe organ]] and taking a walk through the cemetery of his estate. When the sun starts coming up, he spends some time in dark meditation to re-energize himself and reading through the Encyclopedia Vampirica, most of which is about him, before he descends into his crypt.
 
Vlad dislikes his neighbors, the [[Vatore family|Vatore]] siblings, [[Caleb Vatore|Caleb]] and [[Lilith Vatore|Lilith]], as they believe in alternatives options to the traditional drinking of Sims's [[plasma]]. They will also object to Vlad's wardrobe choices, personal hygiene, and showing his dark form in public. Vlad owns a hundred grey coats as he believes they go with everything and always stay in style. At high moon, Vlad and Caleb once had a duel which Vlad won; because of this, many Sims strongly dislike him. With the exception of Renegades club. Which they attempted recruit him due his Evil trait. AltoughAlthough [[Morgan Fyres]] doesn't seem happy about this.
 
An official blog for ''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]'' reveals that Vlad has a cousin named [[Arthur Climate]]. The [[Climate family|Climates]] reluctantly invite Vlad over for a [[holiday|Harvestfest]] gathering, unaware that he is a vampire.<ref name="Climates blog part 1">[https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/news/the-climates-part-1 Meet The Climates (Part 1)]</ref>
 
As a vampire Vladislaus has a human appearance as well as a dark form. Apart from the size of the ears and eyes, his facial features are the same in both versions. However, Vlad looks drastically different in his vampiricvampire form due to not having any hair, including facial hair. His skin possesses visible facial lines as a vampire. Additionally, he has protruding fangs and radiating eyes.
 
According to a teaser for ''Vampires'', Vladislaus turned [[Miss Hell]] into a vampire, who then turned Caleb Vatore.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oe6z6ShQwE The Sims 4: Vampires Teaser Clip]</ref> Vlad also turned Caleb's sister, Lilith Vatore.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qx2qMYhgp8 The Sims 4 Vampires: Official Vampire Powers Gameplay Trailer]</ref>

==Trivia==
* Vladislaus Straud's Sim design highly resembles Count Dracula played by John Carradine in the film ''House of Dracula'' (1945).
* Vladislaus Straud's Dark Form design highly resembles [[wikipedia:Count Orlok|Count Orlok]] from the film ''[[wikipedia:Nosferatu|Nosferatu]]''.
* "Vladislaus" is Latin version of Slavic name (Polish "Władysław", Czech, Slovak and Russian "Vladislav" etc.).
* "Straud" may be a play on 'Strahd' von Zarovich, the vampiric antagonist of Dungeon and Dragon's Ravenloft setting.
