Steve Newlin ( Michael Mc Millan), leader of the Fellowship of the Sun, the local Christian-themed anti-vampire ] or Maryann Forrester ( Michelle Forbes), a philanthropist and eccentric who knows something about Sam's secrets or even Jessica Hanby ( Deborah Ann Woll), a 17-year-old girl kidnapped from a restrictive, conservative family and turned against her will, struggling to figure out the three most confusing things in the world: puberty, her newfound freedom, her vampire powers, and boys. (He is also The Comically Serious Straight Man to the cast's eccentricities.)Īnd that's just the first season, before we start introducing Heralds like Rev. Where Bill is something of a Cultural Rebel - he dislikes his vampirism and tries to "pass" as a normal human he is, surprisingly, a Friend to All Children - Eric is the more stereotypical stone-cold, sexually-charged, self-centered vampire of legend and lore.
Lafayette Reynolds ( Nelsan Ellis) is Tara's flamboyantly gay cousin and the main cook at Merlotte's.He also serves as a gateway into the wider world of the show: Other supernatural creatures, such as shifters, were-animals, and fairies, also exist, and he knows something about them. Sam Merlotte ( Sam Trammell) runs the bar where Sookie, Tara and others work.Sookie's brother, Jason Stackhouse ( Ryan Kwanten), is a Brainless Beauty who Really Gets Around and is Desperately Looking for a Purpose in Life, all of which other characters can exploit very easily.Tara Thornton ( Rutina Wesley), Sookie's Black Best Friend, struggles with her relationship with her neglectful and alcoholic mother Lettie Mae ( Adina Porter).Like many shows set in small towns, True Blood has an Ensemble Cast of vivid and memorable supporting characters, many of whom begin to lead their own plot lines:
BILL COMPTON SEASON 2 SERIAL
But vampires are the subjects of Fantastic Racism, and the first season's Story Arc turns out to be the hunt for a Serial Killer who is targeting people who are close to vampires. Vampire minds turn out to be unreadable to Sookie, and the two begin to fall in love as Bill attempts to "mainstream" into living society. Meanwhile, in the Back Story, vampires came "out of the coffin" two years ago, and one finally visits Bon Temps: Bill Compton ( Stephen Moyer), who lived here as a human about 100 years ago. Sookie has telepathy and has suffered Power Incontinence, leading to an extremely loud mental environment and the occasional distrust of those around her.
The protagonist is Sookie Stackhouse ( Anna Paquin), a young bar waitress from the small Louisiana town of Bon Temps. Lest you think that Humans Are Bastards, the vampire spokesmen are uniformly corrupt and secretly dine on human blood, as TruBlood tastes revolting - and is overpriced, to boot. As a result, there exist drainers - people who earn their living hunting down vampires and exploiting them for their blood. The anti-vampire movement is also fueled by the fact that vampire blood is extremely addictive to humans and is known on the black market as the drug V. Public opinions concerning vampire rights vary: some idealize vampires, others scorn them, the rest would rather mind their own business. This has become possible with the invention of a special drink - the eponymous TruBlood - developed as a safe means to replace human blood. It is set in an alternative universe where vampires not only exist, but have recently publicized themselves through an event commonly referred to as The Great Revelation, and are now trying to coexist with humans. True Blood is a Supernatural Soap Opera produced by HBO and created by Alan Ball.
