Blood, the Last Vampire

Aphrodite — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 13:18:22 GMT

On the surface, Saya is a stunning 16-year-old, but that youthful exterior hides the tormented soul of a 400-year-old "halfling." Born to a human father and a vampire mother, she has for centuries been a loner obsessed with using her samurai skills to rid the world of vampires, all the while knowing that she herself can survive only on blood like those she hunts. When she is sent onto an American military base in Tokyo by the clandestine organization she works for, Saya immediately ...

Anne Rice writings- The Vampire Chronicles

Despina — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 07:43:35 GMT

Recently I've found out Anne Rice and her Vampire Chronicles (along with other series), because I've heard that those are the books the Twilight series were copied from. So I pick up the first book of the Vampire Chronicles- Interview with the vampire- and I'm amazed! I'm currently on the second one, The Vampire Lestat. I've also read Pandora which is in the New Tales of the Vampires series (which was a bit hard to understand since I've read that one first- don't do that mistake xD). Basically, ...

Animated Foods

Darkchild — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 04:13:10 GMT

This may seem a bit childish, but does anyone recollect how they perceived food in animation to taste like, and how they tasted profoundly different in real life? I remember watching all these Disney cartoons and thinking how scrumptious the various foods would look and taste. Peas, slices of ham, big ol' slabs of meat on a bone, mangos that seemed to be oh-so-rubbery good, etc. Then I got a rude awakening indeed, when I raided the pantry and sunk my teeth into a raw carrot. How it tasted oh-so-bitter. ...

LoTR Parody - Prt 1

Aphrodite — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 21:29:46 GMT

Made me smile, as I am a Tolkien geek. Just a piece of random nonsense I came across. Written by TheLeef http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4707419/1/Fellowship_of_the_Ring_A_Parody 1. Prologue Once upon a time there lived an evil dark lord named Sauron who had a Ring that ruled the world. Then one day some Men and some Elves made an alliance and fought a great second-age battle against Sauron and his Orcs in Mordor at Mount Doom, the stakes being the fate of the whole entire world. ...

Introduction~

Seisoku — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 21:29:04 GMT

Hello all. My name is Ray. I'm currently 20 years old, and I'm a huger addict to gaming. I've been a huge fan to Dark Fantasy since I was about 8 years old. I was dragged into the forums by Aphrodite Kicking and screaming. <3 I'm currently taking a major into Game Development, with a Main focus in Storyline Board. I'm a big writer, and have quite a few stories up my sleeve. I look forward to the Forums and I'm hoping to meet many of Lament's members in the long run~

David Gemmel

Darkchild — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 03:57:34 GMT

Not too long ago, my friend lent me a book called "Hero in the Shadows". He told me it was good, and so I began reading it a bit before heading to bed. The next day, I believe I couldn't stop reading it until quite late into the night. Hero in the Shadows is just one of David Gemmel's many literary accomplishments. The book is the last that deals with Waylander, a deadly assassin who lives a wealthy, comfortable life that is soon turned upside-down once again by various evils. The story ...

Aphrodite — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 20:58:57 GMT

I adore her!!!

Shame her new show is a bit dull. Anyone been watching the Dollhouse? Has it gotten exciting yet?

Hello there!

Darkchild — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 22:29:27 GMT

Heya, my name's Danny and I've been a fan of the fantasy genre ever since I've played my first video games. Reading fantasy novels came a while afterwards, and I'm trying to catch up as much as I can. My hobbies also include writing stories and poems, which I hope to share here on this forum. As for real-life info, I'm currently a college student majoring in Media Production. I like to chill, listen to good music and have a good time. My favorite book as of now is The Great Book of Amber ...

Hi to everyone~

Despina — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 10:02:44 GMT

Hey guys and girls :3 I'm Annmary aka Despina. I'm 14 and I go to the 1st grade of high school. :] I'm a person who has a huge imagination and who likes to dream. I've joined these forums because I think they will be a place for me to read and share everything that has to do with fantasy and such. I also like to Role-play (especially with World of Warcraft characters and Lore) which will hopefully happen here too ^_^ So, that's about it from me, see you around!

Rebuild of Evangelion

Darkchild — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 22:02:24 GMT

For fans of this long-running franchise, Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone and Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance are superb movies that feature completely remade and stunningly beautiful animation. A few new characters and even new Evas make their premiere in the second movie. While these changes and others may seem to butcher the original storyline, I think they do nothing but make the anime a more enjoyable watch. The previous movie adaptation (End of Evangelion) that condensed ...

Meatballs beats Willis Action Movie

This made me smile.

Perhaps it is time for BW to hang up his gun and do family films like other aging Hollywood stars?

My true love...Tolkien.

Aphrodite — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 16:41:20 GMT

I really need to get around to reading all the other works. I have read Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit so many times now. They are my secret lover during the crappy Scottish winters.

Anyone got anything to say about the other works of Tolkien?

Rambles...

I will just keep rambling away here till I am ready for advertising.

Terry Pratchett Interview

Aphrodite — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 08:54:45 GMT

A very humorous (well duh) and honest interview with TP. Was a good read. I thought I would share. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/profiles/terry-pratchett-if-id-known-what-a-progressive-brain-disease-could-do-for-your-pr-profile-i-may-have-had-one-earlier-1036584.html
