mad monk

Before she was captured by the English she had planned to lead a French crusade against the Hussites. She had never really lead an army more than say 5,000 - 10,000 men against an English army no larger than 10,000 men. But she had faith enough in God to take on a Hussite Czech army that numbered around 30,000 which had massacred armies numbering as large as 100,000 or more on numerous occasions.  To boot the Hussite commander was a badass looking guy with an eye missing and gnarly facial scars who had never been defeated in battle.

This is what happens when you’re a vampire. You have to watch everyone die. Your mother and father. All your friends. Sometimes brutal, like slipping and falling onto a giant spike. Or falling asleep in an autumn pile of leaves and having some of them block your windpipe. Or making the simple mistake of fashioning a mask out of crackers and being attacked by ducks, geese, swans.
