Living in the darkest reaches of the [[Haunted Woods]] (and [[Roo Island]] as well), a place so dark that no sunlight at all reaches through the trees, Count von Roo is a very solitary [[Blumaroo]]...well, until he gets hungry...Von Roo has been known to glide through the night sky to nearby villages in search of a tasty snack.

'''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.  


Always make sure your window is closed at night, because if you leave it open, you may not be there in the morning...
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]].  
Also an NPC in [[NeoQuest II]], in part 4.

[[Category:Characters]]
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.
