Subject: Decadent Sin Sisters
I don't ever even recall having heard of them and am certain they never
played in any of the ware.
Unless someone from them answers you, I wouldn't bother with an icon for
them.

I don't remember any of the subfactions on Gwen's list, and I'm not only a
Cousin, but played in one war a long time ago as one of the Cousins's
leaders.

Subject: Another downside to Vampirism
I was just thinking that Nick, LaCroix and Janette, being brought across as
long ago as they were, have never had coffee, or chocolate. That may be
more tragic that being exiled from sunlight.;-)

Nick at least might have tasted coffee while on Crusade. Per Wikipedia, coffee
goes back to the thirteenth century; coffee spread from Ethiopia to Egypt, so
it might have been possible for Europeans to have tried it. Chocolate, of
course, is right out, being a product of the New World and invented by the
Aztecs.
I seem to remember some fanfics that speculated that drinking the blood of
someone who was a heavy coffee drinker could result in a caffeine high for the
vampire. I'm not sure I'd want to see a hyped-up, jittery vamp!

Ah, yes, I'm pretty sure that was written by Ophelia Paradise, author of some
of the best Nick/Nat stuff EVAH.

These are not anything I've ever heard of either. It strikes me more
as something somebody made up for the sake of a War story or two, for
a laugh. <shrug>
