February 24, 200421 yr comment_274 I'm not entering this one... everyone knows what I think. And as myself and helm are choosing a winner, it would be unfair to enter. Changed my mind. You know it's De Marigny though. I mean he saved us all, even though his so called friend (Crow) played him for an idiot. I don't remember Crow being chased across the cosmos by Cthulhu while Henri sat on his bottom in Elysia watching through the viewer??? I also don't remember Henri being rebuilt by a robot so he was super human and then sitting on his bottom in Elysia while his fully human friend put his life on the line for what? Err the thought of entering Elysia, which was then used as a prison for Cthulhu... Some Elysia, some friends. I'll stop before I explode
February 24, 200421 yr comment_275 I'm not going to read this thread until it finishes as I haven't read the Titus Crow books yet, though the trilogy sits on my desk right now ready to be read. So yeah I bow out for now... Sophie
February 25, 200421 yr comment_277 Ah Titus Crow or Henri De Marigny ... Although Henri did much of the donkey work, I have to doff my cap to the main man Titus Crow, a true hero amongst men .... a real extrovert, Henri really was just a follower of this man .... he wanted to be Titus Crow. Titus was the brain ... Henri the muscle....
February 25, 200421 yr Author comment_278 Titus Crow is most definitely the top dog here but it's quite a difficult question, as I'm always changing my mind on this one. Taking into account all the short stories as well I'm going to have to go for Crow, by the time he reaches the point of his Transition after the Burrowers Beneath, he's well earned his rest, although he's remade into an almost Super Human he still deserves his rest in Elysia after all he's been through. Henri was a lot younger and it's not like he didn't give him a lot of help; a time clock and a flying cloak...I mean what else could a man want for.
February 25, 200421 yr comment_279 err, not being made a fool of, and then being chased across the universe but some big tentacled freak. When Crow was searching through the universe, he had no idea of what he might encounter, where as when Henri was doing the same, Crow knew what was going on. This would really p*ss me off if I found out my BEST FRIEND in the universe was playing me for a fool, while he was relaxing with the green haired godess...
February 25, 200421 yr Author comment_280 Ahh but Crow knew that to make it work he couldn't tell Henri the whole truth or put him into the piture as it may put the whole of the Universe in jepordy. Crow wasn't happy about it but it needed to be done friendship in the one hand the safety of the entire universe in the other, come on Tops even you would have to admit that the choice he made was for the best [ February 25, 2004, 05:45 AM: Message edited by: The Helm ]
February 26, 200421 yr comment_281 Originally posted by Tops: is that a trilogy in 6 parts Sophie? LOL... shit I forgot there are six stories in total (bangs head). I didn't get to look at the book much when I bought it, now I realise (studying the back) it's the volume 1 of two volumes, which equals 6 stories. doh! I'm having an especially dopey week, please carry on (runs off embarassed) Sophie [ February 25, 2004, 09:26 PM: Message edited by: Sophie ]
February 26, 200421 yr comment_282 Henri is the man as far as I'm concerned... Completely human as oppose to robot. Was not annointed at birth with an elixer. Had brains aswell as brawn, else he wouldn't have got to the intended destination. Helped beat Ithaqua the windwalker with the rest. Crow's home defence was massive in comparison with Henri's, yet he still did the best he could against the chlutu (Spelt wrong I know). Well just a little burst for now.
February 26, 200421 yr comment_283 I agree with the comments above. (All of them) I actually think that without each other, they were not that great a force to be reckoned with but as a team, yup they kicked ass. Henri may just pip this one though as, being totally human, he still followed where Titus dared to tread. He was always around to dig Titus out of a hole no matter the consequence and, although the same may be said in Titus Crows defence, he had the knowledge that he was not human and was faster and stronger than Henri so maybe he had a much better chance of coming through their adventures unscathed.
March 1, 200421 yr comment_285 I havent read the Titus Crow books neither...so i'll give this one as miss aswell
March 1, 200421 yr Author comment_286 Final thought; Unfortunately not many takers on this one, although I know it to be a good topic and one that many lumlian’s have differing opinions on, it’s maybe just a little to black and white and kind of easy to answer yay or nay to depending on where you stand on the whole argument of Who da man Titus or Henri. Anyway no real out right winner here so I’m just going to nominate Tops (providing that’s okay???) to come up with the next topic as I think he’s the biggest Mass Debater around here. Take it away fella…
March 1, 200421 yr comment_287 err thanks hmmm, topic of discussion this week is: the most evil vmapire of them all, who is it? I'll start by saying, Faethor. I wont say why, but my reasons are purely stoopid:) Take it away guys and gals Tops
March 2, 200421 yr comment_288 The most evil vampire? hmm.. (very good topic for discussion btw) The most evil vampire would definately have to be Shaitan; he is the fallen one after all. But what determines extreme evil? Is it actions or intentions? I need to be able to answer this to give a real answer. brb
March 2, 200421 yr Author comment_289 Good one mate... Right most evil Wamphyri ever??? ..errmmm..Shaitan..no wait..Faethor..no Shaitan..ahh..no Faethor :confused: To hard must think on this one and come back with a definate answer and why.
March 2, 200421 yr comment_290 Been away in Stratford for a few days so missed most of the Crow/Henri debate - working of course, not at the Most Haunted live - which was a pity! Anyway, my gut reaction is Shaitan .. but like the rest of ya I'll have to mull it over ... [ March 02, 2004, 03:24 AM: Message edited by: Lupa the Ancient ]
March 3, 200421 yr Author comment_292 Shaitan all the way down the line with this one no change of mind needed, Shaitan is deffo the biggest bad ass in Wamphyri history ever... He has absolutely no redeeming features at all and is completely evil evil evil all the way to the core, so evil in fact that the Wamphyri them selves deemed him to evil for them and banished his bad ass butt into the freezing cold wastes of the icelands.
March 6, 200421 yr comment_295 It certainly looks like Shaitan takes the biscuit with this one.. I just see evil all the way with this dude. The true genesis of the Wamphyri .....
March 6, 200421 yr comment_296 little late I guess. Henry/Titus? Gotta go with Titus, he landed the babe. Henry got stuck with po foot. Titus got the wicked wicked hot babe. Most evil Wamphyri? Shaithis, I'd say Shaitan but I don't know as much of his story, so I'm goin with Shaithis on this one. "The seven tongues of God are in my mind" ~Nevermore
