Paris Skyle

Paris Skyle was a Vampire prince and the oldest living vampire. He was at least 800 years old.

Apparently knew William Shakespeare (he drank from him on his deathbed to preserve his spirit), sailed with Columbus and inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula.

He died of "old age" in book eight due to the fact he walked into the wilderness and wrestled a bear (due to their life-style, old Vampires often choose to fight a battle they know they possess no hope of winning rather than die peacefully).

he also helped Darren fight the vampaneeze
