A scheming vampire lord who lusts after power but is willing to be patient over the course of centuries to obtain it.
As his alter-ego Matthew Ramus, Bludd controlled a vast multinational conglomerate called The Ramus Corporation. They had their fingers in many venures around the world, including defense contracting, international security, a number of humanitarian branches and ownership of a number of fortune 500 companies. Ramus's office is in the company headquarters - an imposing building with an Atlas-like statue in NYC (202).
Bludd was one of several periphery players sought out by Violator to join his scheme of fighting against both Heaven and Hell. Bludd agreed to join the Violator, but never entirely trusted the demon and continued to manipulate events to his benefit.
