'''Count Von Roo''' is a [[wikipedia:vampire|vampire]] [[Blumaroo]], over 200 years old. He was said to live in the [[Haunted Woods]], but now resides in a [[wikipedia:mausoleum|mausoleum]] on [[Roo Island]]. Fear of him coming in the night looking for a tasty snack ensures that Neopians keep their [[Neohome]] windows shut.
 
He sleeps through most of the day, and is only active between 12 am and 1 am [[NST]]. Visitors to his tomb during this time can challenge Von Roo to a game of [[Deadly Dice]], with their Neopet's levels at stake. It is also only during these hours that he can be fought in the [[Battledome]].
 
Blumaroos look like the Count if they are painted [[Halloween]].
 
==Plot summary==
===NeoQuest II===
:''Main Article: [[NeoQuest II]]''
 
In the Haunted Woods chapter of NeoQuest II, [[Rohane]] and his party save Count Von Roo from [[Meuka]].  He explains that he was not the one who cast the spell locking the sun in the sky, instead, he was trying to cast the counterspell.  He reveals that [[Spider Grundo]], [[Balthazar]], and [[Hubrid Nox]] worked together to lock the sun in the sky.  Count Von Roo admits that he is an "evil, blood-sucking fiend" but makes a truce with Rohane and his party because they are both working toward the same goal.
