Poll question: Your favorite Vampire
I'm not into vampires as much as some people, so I might end up leaving out a few major ones. Feel free to add your favorite if I've missed it/him/her.

I watched that show regularly while it was in season, just to drool over him.

28. But Raziel, as he is in the games, isn't a vampire anymore.
Kain, however, would qualify and would receive my vote. :-)

He does a damn good job of latching on to somebody, sucking their essence out of them, and taking on their characteristics (i.e., Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, etc.)

46. Don Simon Ysidro, from "Those Who Hunt The Night"
Edited on Wed Jun-20-07 05:58 PM by haele
By Barbara Hambley. Even though she does tend to stray into the "breathless suspension of belief" with her denoument. Also Fred Saberhagan's Dracula. Both authors tried a bit more to attempt an explaination on how a vampire is created and charactor development.

Oops - you meant TV or Movie vampires? No real preference there.

49. Any media
Vampires are pretty popular, I guess. I still see most of them as evil. I think Angel and Spike came a long way from their beginnings, though. And I, too, like Spike as he came to be, including when he transitioned to Angel, the series. James Marsters and David Boreanaz must have had some great outtakes. :)
