Anne Rice and the names people pick( A little something for Deborah)

[Xander]

Okay, yet again I am wondering how many people has taken their names from an Anne Rice novel LOL.

Let's see. I think we got a Lestat somewhere here.

Lasher has an entire Anne Rice novel with his name on it.

And the latest is.

Deborah!!!

and I quote.
Deborah Mayfair, burned at the stake for (LOL) witchcraft in the early 1600. Accused of witchcraft and killing her husband.
Once saved by a man of the cloth (supposingly) when her mother was burned for witchcraft in Scotland.
Decending from a long line of powerful witches.

just thought you guys wanted to know.

Deborah, please don't shot the messenger

 

[Deborah]

You're dead meat, Xander. Wait until you see my latest weapon! You can run but you can't hide.

Hee hee hee

I loved the books on the Mayfair Witches!!! The Witching Hour, Lasher, and Taltos...

 

[Vlad]

Vlad was first mentioned by Bram Stoker, I think. He may be mentioned in the Anne Rice novels also.

 

[Guest]

Is that your way of saying you're a vampyre sweetie?

 

[Guest]

What's in a name

 

[Vlad]

Wish I were a Vampire, Tiggs. Never age, never get sick, live forever, sounds pretty good.
I'm pretty sure Vlad was a real person on which Stoker based his character, Dracula.

Vlad the Impaler was an actual person who lived in what is now Romania.He was described as a warrior, a ruler & a madman. There is a new movie about him premiering next week, I think on TNT. Looks interesting.

*raising hands*
Ok, I admit it. At first I was tempted to nick myself as "Belinda, ARoquaiaire, Rice-Beauty-Lasher-Pandora-Lestat Loving Humanoid" but, I digress, hmmmm?

 

[Gaucho]

Okay. All this talk about names got me thinking. For twenty points and a tub of Phish Food, name the titles of the books that the following "famous" authors have written.

Will E. Makeit
I.P. Freely
Claude Balls
Seymour Hairs
I.P. Nitely
Mister Completely
Hoo Flung Dung
and, my personal favorite
Erasmus B. Black

Yeah, I know it's corny, but whatcha gonna do?

 

[Xander]

You're dead meat, Xander. Wait until you see my latest weapon! You can run but you can't hide.

Uhm Does anybody have a Kevlar SUIT for sale???

Xander, what's your address again? A certain someone has hired me to track you down so she can bone you.

Azriel

Azriel
Servant of the Bones

Bone me??.....Who???
Or are you bound to secrecy on your contract?

 

[Guest]

That would be unethical but I will give you a big fucking hint.

Azriel: "Xander, what did that redhead say when you kissed her?"

Xander: "What redhead?"

Azriel: "The red head on the end of Deborah's dick."

(See the "Slut_boy is older than dirt" thread for details)

Azriel
Servant of the Bones

 

[Xander]

Hmmm just makes me wonder what facial expression you'll have, when I fuck you ass silly. And make you scream for mercy.

Oh and choke on the barrel of my A.U.G *innocent smile*

Vlad Dracul...

Vlad Dracul was born about 1430 in Sighisoara but his reputation came about largely because of the role played by his father. His father was bestowed by Sigismund, the Holy Roman Emperor, with a title pledging him to wage war against the Czech Hussites and the Turks. He was granted the throne of Wallachia and invested with the "Order of the Dragon". The Romanian word for Dragon happens to be "Dracul". The first holder of the office became known as Vlad Dracul (Vlad the Dragon).

He is credited with descending from the direct male line of Ghengis Khan. Making a long story short he was killed at the hands of the Chrisitains and his eldest son, Mircea, in 1447. After much fighting back and forth the youngest son finally regained control of the throne and from 1456 began the quests that earned him the name "Dracula" or son of the Dragon.

The title of Vlad the Impaler is pretty obvious as he is reputed to have impaled his prisoners upon stakes in the ground with death taking hours...or days...to overtake the hapless victims.

He eventually lost his life in combat with the Turks in 1476 or 1477. Supposedly his head was taken to the Sultan i Constantinople and his corpse was buried in an island monastery at Snagov, outside Bucharest.

Bram Stoker, I'm sad to say, was the last in a long line of imitators of the vampire story. He was preceded nearly a century by Polidori (Byron's personal doctor) with what is credited as the first English vampire story. The vampire theme itself was one of the most popular literary theme and dramatic theme employed by the French and English during the first half of the 19th century. It was also popular elsewhere on the Continent although I can't actually say to what extent (haven't studied that).

Hope this was interesting to the creatures of the night!
