Topic: Thoughts on Dracula post SotN

Meh. Dracula is not one being. He takes many forms of existence, like his castle The over-romanticized Dracula of SotN is but one of them.

Sure, yeah. But that's not what's being pondered here. Mentioning the Drac & Lisa affair is not just an interpretation (like whether or not Drac has a widow's peak or a goatee). It's the biggest part of his vampire life history.

I never got why some people refer to the SotN Drac as romanticized or whatnot. It's not like he goes on long monologues about how much he loved her. Just a couple of lines to tell the player that her murder is the reason he's the big bad.

Since when did she practice magic?  She simple used herbs to ease the suffering of the sick.  Did she actually cure anyone?  We don't know.  We do know that she was at least doing something other than praying.  From what I understand, what she did was similar to what modern day nurses and doctors do for terminally ill patients (ease their pain and make them as comfortable as possible).

Sorry, should have made that more clear in my post.  I don't think Lisa actually used magic.  I meant that her accusers would have seen her use of herbs and basic science to heal people as magic.

This is exactly how people back in that time would have perceived magic, yes. It's a real shame though...

Not really to do anything with the discussion, but to show how powerfull can be Dracula.

I beleive Dracula always was that powerfull, its just that he rarely used his power for anything other than his traditional "teleport-and-fireball" sequence.
Another thanks for developers creativity, I guess.
