"Don't worry, I won't bite. Well, only literally."

—Christian Ozerasrc


Christian Ozera is a thoughtful, intelligent royal moroi and the pariah of the school and royal court due to his parents' unforgivable societal sins. In a quest to understand his parents' path, he searches for faith-based answers and discovers a kindred spirit who is also looking for the truth.

Biography[]

In the books, Christian is a royal Moroi, being the only child and son of Lucas and Moira Ozera and the nephew of Natasha Ozera. When he was very young, his parents turned Strigoi voluntarily, and since then Christian has been raised by his aunt Natasha. They came for Christian and were going to turn him into Strigoi as well, but Natasha protected him until guardians came and killed his parents.

Early Life[]

At the age of ten, his parents returned, wanting to take Christian with them to change him into a strigoi when he was older, but Natasha protected him, and later, guardians killed his parents. He and his aunt were living among humans until Christian began attending St. Vladimir's Academy. Christian was very anti-social, which others tended to avoid, believing he was about to become Strigoi. Christian and Mia Rinaldi would occasionally talk during her freshman year. At school, he would often attend church at St. Vladimir's Academy, supposedly to prove to people that he hadn't turned Strigoi.

He then began attending St. Vladimir's Academy, but because of his parents' actions, Christian was avoided, as people thought he was likely to become a Strigoi like his parents. When Lissa and Rose returned, he soon fell in love with Lissa, and they eventually began dating once she saved his life. Christian was kidnapped, along with Rose, Mia, Eddie, and Mason, by Strigoi. He used his element, fire, to aid in their escape. He also helped break Rose out of prison when she was framed for the Queen's assassination. After discovering Natasha's plan to kill Tatiana and manipulate Lissa when she became queen, Christian was given the title "Lord" and Dimitri as a guardian.

Appearance[]

He has black hair that is seen as being messy and having the Ozera pale icy blue eyes, which means he can be easily identified. Christian is tall and thin and has a paler complexion than most Moroi. He often wears black but occasionally wears navy blue.

Personality[]

Christian is seen to be a brave, active, and sarcastic Moroi. He stowed away in Lissa's rescue mission despite having minor head injuries from being knocked unconscious. He jumped in to fight psi-hounds on the way to rescue Lissa. He believes in using offensive magic and once set Ralf on fire when he was tormenting Lissa. He was able to destroy Strigoi by setting them on fire, something he was unaware he was able to do. Christian spent most of his time watching Lissa, meaning that he noticed she was using compulsion. He admitted that, as he was ignored the whole time, he observed more than most people could. He is known for holding grudges but is also very forgiving. He is very protective, especially of Lissa, as he was furious at Rose for snapping at her. He's also very smart and understood Rose's cluing him in on her escape plan. Christian also gets very jealous and is always jealous when Lissa is with Aaron Drozdov or especially Adrian, picking fights with her and accusing her of going behind his back. He doesn't approve of her friendship with Adrian, especially when they hug or Adrian puts his arm around her.

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

  • Enhanced Immune System: Christian doesn't get sick like humans. It is unusual for him to get sick or catch viruses.
  • Enhanced Senses: He has stronger senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch than humans.
  • Enhanced Speed: He is faster than humans but isn't as fast as Strigoi or Dhampirs.
  • High Life Expectancy: He is not immortal like Strigoi, but he can still live longer than most humans.
  • Hunger Resistance: He does not have to kill in order to feed, unlike Strigoi, who always kill their bite victims, and instead feed in small, non-lethal increments.
  • Limited Darkness Adaptation: He possesses better night vision than humans, being able to see even in very dim illumination such as starlight.
  • Regenerative Healing Factor: He can heal easier and quicker than humans, allowing him to recover from injuries quickly so long as he feeds.

TBA

Weaknesses[]

  • Mortality: Despite their healing factor, Moroi are still mortal and can die of advanced diseases, exsanguination, and severe injuries. They also weaken with age, just like humans.
  • Physical Weakness: Moroi aren't very strong physically and are absolutely no match for Strigoi. Compared to Dhampirs, Moroi are generally physically weaker and less nimble.
  • Sunlight: Moroi are sensitive to sunlight, and while exposure to sunlight is not lethal to Moroi, it is very uncomfortable.

Relationships[]

Relatives[]

Lucas † and Moira Ozera[]

It is unknown what sort of relationship Christian had with his parents, Lucas and Moira, before they became Strigoi. However, it is assumed that it was a very loving bond they shared. Especially since his parents were willing to take him and wait until he was older to turn him so they could be a family forever. He was furious when Isaiah insulted his father. He seems to remember the sort of people they were before they turned. He described the event of his parents getting turned as a storm, but was referring to the guardians. While he's aware that being a strigoi is bad, all he saw was his parents getting killed in front of him. This implies that there was a loving relationship with him.

Natasha Ozera[]

Natasha is Christian's aunt. After his parents turned Strigoi, Tasha took care of Christian and raised him, defending them when his parents returned for him, being mauled in the process. She was the one who told him that Moroi should fight alongside Dhampirs. Christian loved her and was hurt and betrayed when he discovered she had assassinated Queen Tatiana, framed Rose, and wanted to manipulate Lissa when she became queen.

T.W.E. Ozera[]

In the film, Christian and T.W.E. are related, but it is not known how they are related. It is also not known what relationship they have, if any at all.

Romances[]

Vasilisa Dragomir[]

Christian and Lissa knew each other before Lissa left the academy but had never talked to each other. Therefore, she had the same bad impression of him as everyone else did, and he assumed she was another average royal. Upon Lissa's return, she discovered that Christian had begun to spend time in the attic where she had been before she left. They cautiously began to share the space and became friends. Christian soon fell in love with Lissa. Rose, who didn't like Christian, told him that Lissa only felt sorry for him, and so he began ignoring Lissa, deeply hurt. By the time that Rose decided to tell Christian that she had lied, Lissa had reunited with her ex-boyfriend, Aaron Drozdov. He later found her crying and passionately kissed her in an attempt to tell her how he felt, but she felt betrayed and rejected. They later reconciled at the end of Vampire Academy and began dating, not caring who didn't like it. He secretly joined Lissa's best friend, Rose Hathaway, on a rescue mission when Lissa was kidnapped by Victor Dashkov's men during the school dance in an attempt to torture her and make her heal him using spirit to stop his terrible disease from killing him. Christian was almost killed when he was attacked by psi-hounds but was brought back by Lissa, who used spirit to heal him. Rose has mentioned that the way they loved each other made her want to brush her teeth. They stayed together in good times and bad until Lissa changed her behavior and kissed someone else while drunk and under the compulsive influence of another Spirit user named Avery. Even though it wasn't her fault, Christian couldn't forgive her right away and broke up with her. They only reconciled at the very end of Spirit Bound, as they are seen together again in the beginning of Last Sacrifice. He helped Lissa and others extensively when they broke Rose out of prison. After that, he was a rock for Lissa as she did election tests and investigated who murdered late queen Tatiana. In reality, Christian appears in a minor role in the spin-off series Bloodlines. But it is still shown that they are still together.

Friends[]

Rosemarie Hathaway[]

Rose and Christian didn't like each other to the point where Rose told Christian that Lissa only spent time with him out of pity. She turned to him for help in researching St. Vladimir and confessed that she had lied about Lissa, realizing that they were meant to be together. Rose asked for Christian's help in saving Mia, Eddie, and Mason, as she didn't want to put Lissa in danger. He understood her clues and used his power to release her from her ties by acting like he wanted to become Strigoi. They grew closer. Rose, however, was furious when she was given Christian for the field experience instead of Lissa and refused to guard him. When she saw Mason's ghost and failed to protect him, he was the only person who believed she hadn't done so on purpose. Rose began defending Christian's honor when Jesse claimed he was close to becoming Strigoi. She risked her life to save his during the Strigoi attack on the school. Christian helped to break Rose out of prison and clear her name.

Dimitri Belikov[]

Christian has great respect for Dimitri as a guardian, stating at one point that he was glad that Dimitri would be protecting Lissa. They eventually become friends after Tasha's arrest. Dimitri also became Christian's guardian once Lissa was crowned Queen of the Moroi.

Edison Castile[]

Christian and Eddie are friends. Christian trusts Eddie with Lissa, and they both help in breaking Rose out of prison and clearing her name for murdering the Queen.

Adrian Ivashkov[]

Christian didn't like Adrian when he first met him, as he believed that Adrian was interested in Lissa. Christian and Lissa had a huge fight after he discovered she had been spending time with Adrian, and they almost broke up. Christian became very insecure in his relationship with Lissa as he believed that Adrian may be a better match for her. Christian argued with her when he found her getting drunk with Adrian. He also is very unhappy when he sees how close the two are and Adrian puts his arm around her or they hug. They soon put everything behind them and became friends. According to Adrian, their relationship has been awkward since Tasha killed Adrian's aunt, but their relationship is still seen as that of close friends as they Skype each other during The Fiery Heart and Adrian inquires about how to make bacon meatloaf.
