Forever Knight
Back in the early 1990s there was this insanity called Crime Time After Prime time. In this time slot they presented a number of shows including Forever Knight, the saga of a 9th Century crusader who made an interesting choice and is now regretting it. Now is the 20th century and Nicholas de Brabant, traveling as Nicholas Knight, is a detective working for the Toronto PD.
The cast includes: Lucian LaCroix, once general Lucius something or other of the Roman Empire. Turned into a vampire by his illegitimate daughter who had some kinky ideas about their relationship even for Roman times. He is Knight's sire into the vampire life. Jeanette: Proprietor of The Raven nightclub, a sort of sanctuary for the vampire community of Toronto. Sister/lover of Nicholas ... sister as in LaCroix is her sire as well as his. A cast off wife of lower nobility, she was stuck in a house of prostitution until rescued by LaCroix. Natalie Lambert: ME and fascinated by Nicholas to the point of infatuation, or true love. She searches for an answer to Knight's desire to be human again. (Apparently he isn't familiar with what happens to humans when a thousand years of life catches up with you.) |
