Emergency Daily Entertainment Hologram

Our usual host is caught in traffic (the kind with cars, not the kind with Steve Winwood), so I am filling in.

I have often suggested that I would love to app Ringo Starr from any of the Beatles films. And we have had a few real people from works of fiction such as Kit Marlowe and Lawrence of Arabia. So I ask, is there a fictionalized version of a famous person you want to play, or to see in the Bar?

I played Erzsébet Bathory for a while. She was fun, but the time came to downsize my puppet count and I let her go. She's the only real/historical person I've ever had an inkling to play and I can't think of others I'd like to see in bar off the top of my head, but it's barely 9am and I've not had my tea yet.

:O !!! *threadhops and hastily provides tea*

I remember her! She's fascinating historically, and so was the interpretation you used.

Yeah, having her Buffyverse was really fun. Especially since I'd been looking for a fictional account of her to base her on for the game and a lot of them are... well, we'll just say disturbing and move on, shall we?

That's a good way of putting it. *dryly* Did you ever run across the Bathory-based character (well, for some definition) in David Eddings' Elenium trilogy?

I think it came up when I was searching around, but I didn't look into it too deeply because it wasn't exactly her.

Yeah. That about sums it up.

And on that note, I've got to dash off through the cold towards work. See you!

I am sad I couldn't do more Sallie-Bathory.

As am I! That was certainly an interesting budding friendship.
