My next three characters are the ones that get forgotten the most. While Mina and Lucy will have their names changed/swapped, the next three are either reduced to one or two characters or forgotten about altogether.
Today I want to do one close to my heart, Dr. Jack Seward. Seward was a psychiatrist and I spent a number of years as a psychologist. Plus my one and only time on stage was playing Seward in my High School version of Dracula. Yeah, I am not going to dump my academic career for a life in the limelight, but it was fun.
My favorite performance of Seward was from Bram Stoker's Dracula from 1992 played by Richard E. Grant, though Donald Pleasence also gave a great performance in 1979's Dracula.
Seward's role in the novel is to first be a suitor to Lucy, but he also brings in Van Helsing. His friends Arthur Holmwood and Quincy Morris are also instrumental in the battle against Dracula.
Here he is for Night Shift. NIGHT SHIFT is available from the Elf Lair Games website (hardcover) and from DriveThruRPG (PDF).
Yeah, me with a full beard in High School as Seward |
