Luna and Joran Draknis: New Kids on Nytefall

Posted on September 10, 2021 by Charles Yallowitz

First, the picture has nothing to do with these two.  The only similarities are that they’re couples.  Finding a vampire couple picture wasn’t going well, so I just grabbed this one out of frustration.  Professional here. Instead of giving these … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Patients or Prisoners?

Posted on August 3, 2021 by Charles Yallowitz

Nyx is always on the list, so here she is.  Of course, I’ve done so many excerpts with her that it’s a challenge to find new ones.  They tend to involve other characters too or be her epic battles, which … Continue reading →
