Lord Harvey Archer, the youngest of the Archer siblings was pre-maturely born and was rather weak. From the time he was young, he knew he couldn't be strong enough to join the protection forces of his family. He would constantly fall sick and was encouraged to take up another profession than his family business as they wouldn't allow him to be a protector.

Dhampirs have always been there to protect those around them and traditionally it's been the Humans which Dhampirs have protected, but some Dhampirs have gone into another route of protection - Protecting the supernatural. Archer's great great something started off the family business by putting his life on the line to protect a friend, a Vampire friend. After that the family asked Archer's great great something to become a bodyguard of sorts and to protect members of the family as required. The tradition as such, when a Fairchild turned 18, after their claiming ceremony they would be assigned to a member of a Vampire family to protect for as long as the Vampire needed them.

Harvey resented his weakness deeply for while his older siblings would be training in the dojo, he would be forced to watch them from the window. Due to his sense of inferiority, he never developed any close relationship with either of them. Both Fred and Dominique would often sit with him and speak encouraging words, but it all felt useless in his ears.
It was during the night that he would allow himself to really feel and sneak away inside the dojo. There he would spend hours just running his hands lightly through each weapon, hoping against hope that he would someday be strong enough to protect those around him and make his family proud.

His childhood was rather dull and uninteresting compared to his other siblings, but Edmund had a deep desire to learn and better himself and he would closely watch the training that his siblings received and in the quietness of the night, try to imitate them.

At his 18th birthday, his family had not planned to hold a grand ceremony, fearing that it would tire him out greatly, but Archer insisted. All his family and close friends gathered inside the Family's Dojo where he would spend hours handling weapons until he was claimed by one. As he entered the Dojo, Harvey took a deep breath and and held each weapon in his hands, as desperate as a thirsty man. It was just half an hour into the ceremony when it happened. Just as he touched the bow, he felt a connection and all the runes appeared on it's sharp surface. The family congratulated him, but the sadness in the atmosphere was still there for they did not see him fit enough to join the family's business of protecting the vampires.

While his older brother Fred had run away from home and his sister was off on her first assignment, Harvey spent his days studying Law. He felt that at least if he couldn't protect people physically, he could do so legally. Still, he did not give up his nighttime routine and trained with his bow and arrow.

Just a few months after his 19th birthday, while he was working in New Zealand, he got the news that some vampires, one of whom was being protected by his father, were attacked. He immediately rushed to the spot and using his self-training helped the others to safeguard the vampires. It was then that his father hugged him and broke down asking for forgiveness of being so dismissive of his strengths.

He returned home and his father began training him, polishing all the skills he knew. After four months, he was gaining strength and everyone was hopeful that he could become a vampire-protector when tragedy stuck again. His sister had been unable to protect her ward and she had returned home, but was hardly her own self. Following Fredrick's steps she too left home.

Just a month before his 20th birthday, Harvey heard about the comet striking Whiteshore just as he had found that his sister had settled there. Feeling deeply worried over her well-being, he left home and began his journey towards Evermore city, hoping and wishing that the comet had not affected her sister and they could still be able to meet again and maybe build a relationship they never had in their childhood.
