Draus is Draluc's father, a member of the powerful and ancient Dragon Clan vampire family. He shares his son's silver hair, black eyes, and spiked "horn-like" hair. Despite an intimidating presence marked by a Thousand-Yard Stare that unnerves others, Draus is fundamentally a doting and affectionate parent. He excessively spoiled his only son Draluc due to the boy's historically frail constitution, inadvertently fostering Draluc's lazy and hedonistic personality. As head of the Dragon Clan, Draus founded and leads a council of major vampire clan heads, including figures like Northdin and Y-dan. His relationship with Y-dan remains strained due to Y-dan's troublemaking nature. Draus is deeply devoted to his wife, Mira, an Old Blood vampire of Japanese descent; he ritually kisses her photo before sleeping in his coffin each day. His marriage to Mira reflects his clan's general friendliness toward humans. Key moments reveal Draus's character. Visiting Draluc and Ronaldo's apartment, he resolves to take Draluc home after witnessing Ronaldo's violent treatment and learning of John's mistreatment. However, observing Draluc's active social life and friendships in the city—contrasted with flashbacks of Draluc's solitary castle existence—convinces Draus of his son's newfound happiness and independence. He permits Draluc to stay despite the risks. Later, Draus accompanies Draluc and his grandfather to South America during an event involving John's origins. He passively accepts an "alien-looking cryptid" gift from the grandfather, showcasing his tolerance for family eccentricity. Upon discovering Draluc surrounded by sports balls resembling John after their separation, Draus subtly reveals his concern as a parent. Draus is the grandfather of John, whom Draluc later contracted as a familiar. His legacy persists through his advocacy for peaceful coexistence between vampires and humans, a principle upheld by his clan.
