Missi (The Vampair)

"Missi" is the given name of the secondary protagonist of the "Vampair" series of animated music videos made by animator Daria Cohen. Despite being the protagonist of the first video "The Night", she is hardly the hero, given events which play out later in the series.

Character Backstory
Missi's background is unknown as of he latest video "Ch. 3 Resurrection". Her reasons for entering the castle are unknown, as ar emost details of her character before she acquired Duke's cane. All that is known definitively is that the events of the videos are set in motion by her choice to come to Duke's Castle to read a copy of Twilight.

The Night
During the events of "The Night", Missi arrives at Duke's castle with a backpack and a copy of "Twilight", which she sits down to read. Her reading is interrupted by the arrival of the castle's master; the vampire Duke. Surprised and frightened by Duke and his behavior, Missi attempts to flee, only to have her book knocked from her hands and destroyed.

She attempts to flee via the front door but is trapped inside by Duke, who wraps her up in a red rope from his cane. The ropes retract to reveal her old clothes torn away and a dark velvet dress in it's place. Missi ends up pulled back to Duke, who strings her up like a marionette and makes her sway around the entrance hall, until she frees herself by breaking the strings and escapes up a concealed stairway. She is confronted by Duke again, who triggers the stairs causing them to turn into a slide, sending Missi back down, with Duke in pursuit.

Missi manages to elude Duke for a time and reaches another door, but is caught by Duke again, who dances her back into the main hallway. As they dance Missi catches a glimpse of sunlight coming in from outside. Thinking quickly, Missi pretends to return Duke's advances and seduces him into stepping closer to the rope which opens the curtains. She succeeds in opening the curtains and takes Duke's cane and using it to hit him into the rays of the sun, burning him to ash. As the vampire crumbles to dust, Missi holds the cane and her face transforms into that of a vampire, signifying her possession by the cane.

Personality and Characteristics
Details about Missi's personality before becoming a vampire are not available. She appears to enjoy reading and seems to have a fondness for "Twilight".

After becoming a vampire Missi's personality becomes more defined. She summons Duke from the dead, to vent her anger and hatred toward him, mocking his personality -or at least her perception of it- in song, before inflicting bodily harm to him and throwing him from his own castle and slamming the door in his face.

Missi seems to be studious and clever in both forms, shown by her love of reading and quick-thinking when the lured Duke to his death. This was shown again in her researching how to resurrect the vampire.

Missi's taste in music seems to be more modern than Duke, which has been attributed by the creator to her being more "modern" than Duke. She also appears to be trained in piano, which she plays with two fingers.
