Godric is a recurring character in the second, third, fourth and fifth seasons. He is portrayed by guest star Allan Hyde and debuts in "Never Let Me Go".
Godric was the former vampire sheriff of Area 9 in Dallas, Texas. An ancient vampire over 2,000 years-old, Godric suffered much cruelty at the hands of the human race and his own maker which instilled in him a great amount of hatred and resentment. So much so, that he spent most of his existence hunting humans for sport and passing on his disdain for the living to his progenies, Eric and Nora. However, after millennia, Godric realized that all the senseless killing had only left him feeling detached and empty, causing him to commit suicide.
He now exists as a non-corporeal spirit, capable of traversing the two worlds, and providing guidance to the living.
