i typically prefer my bloodsuckers to be a little further into the animal kingdom, but god lestat is cool. i cannot think of a more iconic portrayal of the "pretty" vampire trope. Lestat de lioncourt ( the vampire chronicles - anne rice ) this one is probably obvious. so here are some of the ones i like the most, specifically in books for this post. books, games, movies, if you ask me about my favorite things there are probably going to be fanged bloodsuckers involved. i'm not even really sure why i like them so much, but they basically make their way into my favorites of any kind of media. I'll preface by saying i am rather obsessed with vampires as an overall theme. What is about this fantasy trope of a land once filled with magic? Is it just the best template for writers, or is it the only template they know?Įdit: thank you so much for all the suggestions!! (: so happy to see all the bloodsucker love. The 4th Age is the end I believeĮlder Scrolls and all Miyazaki games follow this rule too. In LOTR, each passing Age sees a decline in magic.
By the time of the Original Trilogy, people already thought of Jedi as myth (like White Walkers.) Star Wars: The Old Republic and Ancient Sith were unbelievably strong, the prequels and original trilogy show us a tiny fraction of a fraction of Force users and their waning influence. Or on a macro level, the Long Night happened, thousands of years go by, and it becomes legend. They are always set in a land that was once overrun by general magic including magical creatures/magic users that then dissipates and leaves a more "normal" society.ĪSOIAF: after the Doom of Valyria and later with the last dragons dying out seemingly all magic left the world. A Song of Ice and Fire, Lord of the Rings, Dark Souls, Kingkiller Chronicle, you name it.
