It LOOKS like the inspiration for the movie-world came directly from WW's ideas, not in Blade when it was used as window dressing.P.S. gads, it's ironic that my only V:tM character, one I'm using in the In-Character board, is named Nikolai. It's tough using the name in any way other than in reference to my character....  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f621.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":mad:" title="Mad    :mad:"  data-smilie="4"data-shortname=":mad:" /></blockquote>
