Old age comes to them all

Hell, we've moved away from KM almost completely now. I didn't even notice us leaving.
I always took Vampires to be night-dwellers. Sunlight kills (unsure about the stake through the hart thing) as does decapitation. They must drink human blood to remain healthy and strong.....like we do with water.
Some sources refer to this being a fusion of demon and human, therefore retaining two sides, the human form, where it is impossible to tell they are vampire, and the demon form which comes about when they feed.
So many contradicting sources make a definitive definition almost impossible.

Oooo, like that's never happened before.

Are you sure you're not thinking of Buffy The Vampire Slayer there?

I absolutely hate that programme. Too American. Vampires have no place in America
They should be kept to European castles where they are free to feed on the villagers!!!!

If we look at what is taken to be the first Vampire novel,
Dracula, then we can see that the Vampire is a deeply passionate and sexual being.
It has a large amount of Charisma and seemingly can cast an enticing spell on women. Ah, someone make me a Vampire, I could do with some Charisma

Does anyone have an idea what year Treguard could've been born in?
He was young when he lost his castle and that was in the reign of King John and John was defeinatly on the throne when treguard got back Dunshelm. The Sorcerer's Isle was set in 1216 which is the year John's reign ended.
I'm gessing he was born in the late 1180s.

I reckon Treguard would've been in his 40's in The Sorcerer's Isle. So... maybe 1175.
By the way, has anyone else noticed the maths error at the start of the first book? William II ("Rufus") succeeded to the throne on the death of Willliam the Conqueror in 1087. William had Dunshelm built as a border defence against Scots marauders and a diversion to keep Saxons from rebelling against the Normans. It says in the book that "William's plan worked for a century and a half", before Vestan of Brittany stole the castle and murdered Baron Dunshelm.
A century and a half later however would have been the year 1237 at the earliest, over 20 years after King John died, and yet John is still supposed to be King when Treguard slew the Gruagach, when he defeated Arawn, when he fought Queen Hel, when he battled Morgana Le Fay...

Just out of interest I wonder what era Knightmare was supposed to be in. Well particularly about series 1-5. Here http://knightmare.com/club/3-1/p4.htm it says that Treguard is 39. I also woder what era s6-8 was in.

Olaf is clearly an anachronism, as the Viking culture he's based on had more or less died out by the middle of the twelfth century. Also, the horned-helmet he wears is a falsity, as to the best of our knowledge Viking helmets never had horns in them. (Horned Vikings are a stereotype handed down to us by the Victorians.)

How old is the Brollachan? I know it was pulled through time from Cornwall but that's all.
