Biography[]
There's currently little information on Scab's life prior to becoming a vampire or The Rising. What is known is that his human name was Scott and that his nickname came from an incident in which he took work during a strike. After the strike ended, he was hired full-time, resulting in his coworkers being very abusive towards him. Dmitri sent him as a messenger to the Sisterhood to ask for a truce after a 200 year war. He stabs the leader in the chin with a cross after she denied the truce. Since he was the one that killed the leader, all of the leaders kneel to him and he became the new leader. After becoming the leader of the Sisterhood, he was penectomized in order to fully become a "Sister"

Scab is Julius' loyal minion, one of many in fact. Julius often relies on him to accomplish certain tasks that he himself would not do. Scab isn't only loyal but he can be fearless at time too. He showed little to no fear when tasked with the mission to apprehend Vanessa Helsing, unlike his comrades who were quite fearful. However, this fearlessness isn't always the case, as he was quite hesitant to enter the underground sewers to pursue Vanessa and Susan due to the mutated vampires that reside down there.
