Are Vamps and Werewolves too overdone?
Ms Duck:
How about a pov of a character who is convinced of vampires, and sees them , in a world where no one else does? You could do a backstory for say the polices view where they are tracking down a dangerous manman who stabs people to death with a woodeden stake...
leave it open till the end ( or afterwords) wether the hero is crazy or not..
Velgron:
The main character was going to be the projects weapons trainer who resigns his post after seeing the projects final results. He would also have help from some of the people from the town in which the hammer and scythe project was located. I realize alot of back story will be needed and I think following a police angle against him only to have the police see the light and then side with him or help him in some capacity would be pretty cool. I also thought to make the main character a Scythe infantrymen who kep most of his true humanity and does not agree with the leadership inside the group and wants to stop them. Maybe I could make a sort of mercenary group out of townsfolk. the weapons trainer. and a dissatisfied scythe project infantryman....
The Corvidian:
Did anyone know that Anne Rice's sister, Alice Borchardt, is trying to do for werewolves what her sister did for vampires? ;D

Ms Duck:
Phil Phoglio (www.airshipbooks.com if ya dont know who im talking about) tried to 'sex up' zombies to be like anne rice vampires in a strip a few years ago. It was hilaroius.
The only difference between zombies and vampies is freel will:
Zombi " Brainss..."
Vampire " Bloood. But first, I shall eat this waffle."
