Revision as of 20:22, 1 September 2013

The vampire who transformed Benny Lafitte, was commonly referred to as The Old Man/The Maker. His real name was unknown. He led a group of vampires and they attacked ships off at sea Dean referred to them as vampirates.

Powers and Abilities

As a vampire, he has all the powers of one, but is presumably more powerful due to his advanced age:

  • Super strength - The Old Man possessed great strength, presumably greater than normal vampires.
  • Fangs - The Old Man's teeth were superhumanly strong.
  • Super speed- The Old Man was able to move at speeds greater than humans can and presumably greater than most vampires.
  • Super agility - The Old Man possessed incredible agility.
  • Superhuman Senses - The Old Man possessed enhanced senses.
  • Immortality - The Old Man could potentially live forever. He can't grow old and won't get sick. Despite being called The Old Man, his appearence is that of a man in his late 20s at best.
  • Invulnerability - The Old Man could not be killed by conventional methods such as gunshots or stab wounds.

History

He seemed to lead in a format similiar to that of a cult leader as his vampire servants call him "Father". After Benny fell in love with a human named Andrea and abandoned The Old Man and his nest, The Old Man hunted Benny down and killed him, turning Andrea into a vampire as revenge against Benny, making her his second-in-command.

Season 8

Fifty years later, Benny was resurrected by the hunter Dean Winchester. In Blood Brother, with Dean's help, he came after The Old Man for revenge. After escaping thanks to Andrea, Benny confronted The Old Man who refused to fight back, hating the world and wanting to die on his own terms. Promising to show The Old Man a new world, Benny killed him while Dean killed all of the other vampires in his nest.
