Vrej Ratavoussian is an Immortal, born in 1582 in Vitebst, Belorussia. He was killed in an accident when a tree fell on him in 1638 in Novocherkassk, Russia and became Immortal. Vrej met his teacher, Ygor Pasternak, who taught him about what he was.

Over years of traveling, he eventually settled in Las Vegas, Nevada where he became an Elvis Presley impersonator due to his striking resemblance of the King. He had at last count, performed 1,000 times at the Taj Mahal Club on the Vegas Strip. He has also been offered a place at the Blue Suede Chapel where ordained Elvis impersonators performed drive through weddings. He has thus far refused the position as being 'tawdry.'

In 1996, he encountered Danny Cimoli, an Immortal magician perform in Vegas, whom he challenged; Danny took the booking in Las Vegas, and after doing his show, was last seen being threatened by Immortal Vrej Ratavoussian in the building's parking lot, while he was talking to his mother on a cell phone. Sensing the other, he told his mother that he loved her. According to the Watcher Chronicle (Highlander: The Series Season 4 Extras), Danny lost his head and his Quickening in that meeting.
