I can't say too much! Spoilers!

[broken crown]

I don't care about that. Just put it under a spoilers cut.

[chasing starlight]

Ok.

Spoiler:

Alaric, that's his name, I know weird right? Anyways, the history teacher in the pilot, Mr. Tanner gets killed on Halloween, and Alaric is his replacement in school. But he wasn't really who he said he was, he was really there looking for vampires so he could study them or something.

ETA: Or I suppose the new character could also be Meredith, but I don't know how they could spin her having ulterior motives.

Yes that is correct

[Stay to the Lights]

Thanks for all the news, glad to hear they will be sticking to the books!

[chasing starlight]

They did say that they're only going to use the first 3 books though, which I find very interesting.

[Stay to the Lights]

Yeah they did say that. Hm, i wonder why..

[chasing starlight]

Because the last two were kinda crazy cakes! I thought so atleast.

[Stay to the Lights]

They sure were... different thats for sure.

[chasing starlight]

I guess the 4th one wasn't as bad, but the 5th one was just....out there.

[broken crown]

Thanks M. Sounds intriguing.

Are there...

Spoiler:

Vampire Slayers? Hunters? Something like that?

What was so different about them? Total OOC antics or something?

[chasing starlight]

Spoiler:

No he wasn't really hunting them, and there weren't any hunters/slayers in the book. He was doing like a graduate paper or something on them. Idk. But he actually ended up being an ally for Elena and the crew in the end.

I thought there was a lot of OOC stuff, and just a ridiculous plot line that just was draaaaaaaaaaaaagged out for ages.

[broken crown]

Hmmm thanks!

That reminds me of the Fearless books. They did this really, really weird OOC plot line toward the end and it just dragged on for ages.

[chasing starlight]

And that ridiculous plot line will dragged out for another two books too.

[broken crown]

Oh this plot was dragged across several books. There are 36 Books in the Fearless series not including Special Editions, the prequel, and the spin-off.

But 2 books seems alot for the VD.
