- You may be looking for the substance or the story.
"Ichor" was the alias adopted on 21st century Earth by an immortal of Greek mythology, in reference to ichor, the "blood of the Gods", which flowed in his veins.
Ichor wished to return to the mortal plane and experiment on ambrosia, the immortality-granting food of the gods, so that even normal humans could consume it and reap its benefits. To find a "stepping stone" onto the mortal plane, he made a deal with a ghost, agreeing to supply it with life force if the ghost helped him cross the boundary.
To fulfill his end of the bargain, Ichor began to meet with a group of London-based sanguinarians, humans who consensually drank each other's blood for recreation. Despite keeping his origins a mystery, he quickly became popular within the community, both thanks to his supernatural charisma and because his ichor acted like a pleasurable drug for the drinkers. Only one member, Sally, initially resisted his charms.
Over time, Ichor realised the ghost had nefarious intentions and would never let him go free of the deal. However, he could only end the deal by hanging himself ritually, and was unwilling to do so without having finished his work. Eventually, he convinced Sally to sleep with him, having made it clear that she was under no obligation to do so. She never saw him again; once he was certain that Sally was pregnant with his child and that his immortal boodline would thus continue, Ichor hanged himself in a cemetery, foiling the ghost's plans. As Sally was a friend-of-a-friend of Liz Haggard's, Ichor's death was investigated by P.R.O.B.E., who managed to uncover the truth thanks to the group's psychic, Azacca Dixon, managing to read the spited ghost's lingering thoughtwaves. P.R.O.B.E. resolved to keep an eye on Sally and her demigod child. (HOMEVID: Ichor [+]Loading...["Ichor (home video)"])
