The Dalish are starting to have longer lifespans (though no where NEAR as long as they once were) and Zathrian is of course a special case.

It's funny, Cullen is going all stalker confessional and there Alistair is ho hmm in the background like nothing is happening.

The seven elf years is probably from LoTR. If memory serves, they don't hit adulthood until they're roughly 100 years old- before that, they're basically in an extended adolescence.





You may wish to inform your sister that Tolkien did not invent elves and that they vary from culture to culture.

It is so disappointing that Alistair doesn't say anything here or when you hit on Teagan.

Have done so many times. She also didn't like Twilight, not because it was a bad movie, she didn't even watch it. She hated it because it wasn't true to vampire lore.

in elfquest they aged normally till they reached adulthood then spent years and years at that approximate age. Of course the wolfblooded eventually died but barring accidents the high ones could live forever.

That is also D&D 3.0/3.5 rules, where elves hit maturity at about 120.  And then it got switched all up in 4.0, so it's not like these things are immutable.

All I know is that David Gaider invented this world, so what he says is right. She doesn't seem to understand this.

Your sister needs to crack open a book on Eastern mythos, then. Most of what people know today as standard vampire lore is different from the original lore as well. Not to mention Asian vampires are entirely different.

How does she feel about Santa's elves? Or does she imagine Elrond with a wooden mallet?

I always took it as "courtly flirtation" not really meaning anything.  My PC  always reasons that this poor man has been holding the village together, worried about his family and trying to deal with the crap thats going on almost singlehandedly.  If she can provide a respite to forget even for a moment whats going on, then she has done her good deed for the day.

And either Al understands this or really doesn't have the confidence to grab her and say to Teagan "YES, Bann Teagan you ARE too damn bold!" then pull PC to a corner and kiss her thoroughly

Eh, Twilight wasn't that bad.  I couldn't really get into it though since they were all so young.  It's hard for me to relate to teenagers anymore.  Same goes for the CW show Vampire Diaries.  Bram Stoker's Dracula is still the best vampire movie ever made imo. 

Yeah, I just reloaded because Alistair had no imput.  I'm just going to try to side step his awkward comments this time so, it flows more naturally.  I wasn't overly flirtatious w/ him during the origin. 

[cmessaz]

All I'm saying is that there is no rule book necesarily. It's not like vampires are real, so why can't each individual artist/author change things up? Same with elves. She just doesn't understand this. I just hung up on her cause it was getting nasty. I'm so glad she doesn't live with me anymore.

I loved Buffy.  I haven't really watched much TV since it was canceled.

Serissia- Bram Stoker's dracula is one of my favorite books/movies ever. Queen of the Damned was awsome. Interview with the vampire was ok, and I actually don't like Twilight. Nothing will top Bram Stoker though. I'm listening to Static X "Cold" from Queen of the Damned right now, strangly enough.

The one with Gary Oldman right? cause that movie was awesome.  I saw that the first time in a movie theatre...sitting RIGHT up front and it FELT like I was in the castle with Harker.

I love the Rose song from that movie too.

Yes, thats the one Syl. Awsome movie. The book is good, but not as romantic I suppose.

I liked Interview with the Vampire but I wasn't that keen on Queen of the Damned.  I like the books better than either movie.  The first Underworld wasn't too bad but the sequels not so much. 

True Blood is the only current vampire themed show I'll watch.  The show is actually oddly better than the books and I've read them all but the latest.  Alan Ball does an excellent job translating C. Harris's work into TV.

[cmessaz]

Oh I forgot about Underworld, I actually liked the last one. I haven't read either of those books yet. I don't watch hardly any TV recently. Been all computer, homework, and the occassional Mel Brooks movie.

I just saw a mod thats supposed to add some Jealous Al, but I'll be darned if I remember where/what it was.

He better not, since I imagine that's Plan B for a huge number of Queen Couslands. 

HNF: You know what name is awesome for a boy?

HNF: How did you know?
Fergus: *sigh* 

Hahahaha, yeah.  I'd imagine Fergus would be a good sport about it.

It's kind of surprising that there isn't more Fergus love in the forum. He seems like a really decent guy with a good sense of humor.

We MUST find this mod. I can't find it on Nexus, you know I thought I saw this once too now that I think about it. I wonder if it was deleted.

He's married. Or he was. Plus the only time you meet him, you're sort of related. Otherwise, I'd totally go for him.

[Serissia]

I didn't like Fergus's wife though. She was like an Isolde in training.
