Background

First appearing in Quoth the Raven Issue 28, the Toothless Nosferatu is an opponent of the Chibiloft Crew that physically resembles a hunchbacked Count Orlok. It first appears (but has zero speaking lines) in one of the Chibiloft comics of the aforementioned volume of Quoth the Raven.

From context, the undead monster attacked the 'Crew because Comoară had somehow stolen its teeth, including its fangs, just to prove she could. This act presumably left the vampire unable to feed, explaining its aggression towards the 'Crew. When first seen, it had smashed its way into the 'Crew's headquarters with a double-headed battleaxe, and was engaged in a duel with Slice. Presumably it was either driven off or fled, or else the 'Crew managed to escape its attentions.

Return

The Toothless Nosferatu -- cruelly nicknamed 'Mumbles' in the lineup of hostile characters -- appears again near the end of Quoth the Raven Issue 30. It is revealed that the undead monster had hidden itself aboard the ship Dead Reckoning along with Arcael, D'Vaal, the Levkarest Lycanthrope and Urtica. Given that the hold of the ship contained an unknown number of vampires, 'Mumbles' may be their sire, although it is noted that his teeth had been destroyed by Slice and the Chibiloft Crew is amazed that he can even move, let alone threaten them.
