Oh my god(s)(dess)(desses)!

I have the best boyfriend ever! See, I have this Aunt Linda and Uncle Doug (Doug being my dad's little brother) and I can't STAND them. They're malicious and passive-aggressive and it's a damn miracle that their 4 kids are so great. Welp, they're having a dinner party this Saturday. Mind you, this Saturday is Lakewood Renn Faire. To which I'm totally going. But since my dad's going to be at this dinner thing, I have to go. And I told Craig I had to be there. And he's coming too, even though I told him how crappy they are! I don't have to endure them alone. He's the best ever!

Um. People who've played Vampire: the Masquerade---what was your favorite character? Doesn't have to be one you've played or even played with, just a character concept and what made it so great.

Good medieval/renn/age of innocence feeling movies:
Dark Crystal--------Labyrinth-------Dangerous Beauty--------The Princess Bride--------Elizabeth---------King Arthur--------Merlin--------Excalibur---------Lord of the Rings Trilogy-------Pirates of the Caribbean--------A Knight's Tale----LadyHawk----Dragonslayer----Dragonheart

Suggestions?
Please note: I hate Mel Gibson and will not allow his movies on my lists, so don't try.

First off, you should add LadyHawk and Dragonslayer to that list of movies...mmmMMmmm, star studded 80's licious.

Favorite Vampire character...

There was this girl that played what I thought was a "candy Malkavian". But then I discovered a bit more about this character (who was a 9 year old girl)

Apparently she had been embraced on her 10th birthday. So whenever her birthday comes around, her fragile mind can't handle the idea of turning 11. She goes completely insane and slaughters the family she lives with. Then goes out and finds another little girl who is turning 10...kills the girl and takes her place in the family(with liberal amounts of Dominate). She stays with the family until it is time for her 11th birthday and repeats the process.

My character followed her obfuscated on this rampage (which no one else knew anything about it) and I gained much respect for the player, who managed to turn an annoying "child" Malkavian type into something with much more behind the surface.

Right now at 2:00am, that's my favorite. I'll probably think of a better one in a few minutes...but I'll stick with that one.
