Super Bowl Sunday

 

I know there’s at least a few people who actually follow the teams, and are excited by the upcoming game. 

Me … I watch for the Clydesdales! 

Who are you routing for?

Or do you just watch for the commercials?

So don’t care …. when does Rugby start? 😀

Sylum Updates/Reminders

Quick Update/Reminders

  • The Wiki is the best place to get history of characters and clans.  If you’re ever confused about anything there, can reply to the character or clan post and I’ll answer to the best ability.
  • The Archive has all the Canon Stories.  All non-canon stories are on the Old Archive (Link can be found on the links list and the menu on top of the blog).  In time the Old Archive will be deleted, but at the moment it’s still up mainly because Family & Evolution are being updated.
  • I finished Chapter 2 of Family and working on 3 (this is the most I’ve gotten done in a while as I finally have energy and the will to working on things!)
  • The Wiki is still being updated via images and bio formats
  • If you have questions you can email (sylumclan@gmail.com) – please note I don’t check the email daily so it may take a few days to get back to you.
  • I think that’s it for the moment …
  • Maybe

Sylum Inspiration: Thomas Magnum

Oceania: Hunter

 

Thomas Sullivan Magnum IV was born 1944. Both his father and grandfather were naval officers.

He was born in Detroit, but raised in the region of Tidewater, Virginia. In high school, his football team won a Virginia State football championship. Some members of his family, including his mother and her second husband, still reside there.

Magnum attended the United States Naval Academy then served ten or more years as an officer in the United States Navy, rising to the rank of Lieutenant before resigning from the service in disillusionment in 1979.

Magnum was a Vietnam War veteran and a former POW who believed his wife Michelle died in bombing during the final pull-out from Saigon. He served in both the SEALs and Naval Intelligence during his Navy years, and as such maintained many contacts in both communities.

After he retired he moved to Hawaii where he became a Private Investigator. He ended up working for Robin Nest as security personnel, in exchange of room and board, and use of his Ferrari. His boss was Higgins, who he suspected of being Nest, but could never prove it.

When he was shot defending Higgins, he found out at least some of Higgins’ secrets and accepted being Turned.

Sylum Inspiration: Lyca

Vampire Council: Member

 

Dilios Note: What we do know is they started life as wolves – well what Humans would call wolves, I’m not sure what the term for them was where they came from. They were protectors of ‘The Diplomat’ and first experiments of the ‘Wraith Cure’ from The Doctor. When the Wraith attacked Atlantis, they escaped through the Stargate along with Viduus to Earth.

The first time they lived as Human was the beginning of Ancient Rome. Rumors have it that it was Lyca, the she-wolf, that raised Remus and Romulus.

Sometime in AD, Lyca gave birth to three boys. This is when they state, they were fully Human, with the wolf heritage under the skins.

Dilios Note: The werewolf legend is likely to have come from them. Though they don’t have to turn at the full moon, it does bring more animal instincts out.
