- ABOUT THE EDITOR
During the ride to look for Bill, Alcide tells Sookie that bitten Weres, or the half-man, half-wolf Weres, “don’t live long, poor things.” Does this apply to the werepanthers as well? What does it mean for Jason?
—SANDY SMITH
In some packs, the halfies are killed as soon as they’re discovered. Other packs allow them to live, but running with the pack engenders a lot of wear and tear on bodies that don’t heal as quickly as pureblood bodies. (By the way, this is where the legend of the Yeti and of Bigfoot came from: sightings of halfies.) Though Jason has a good chance of remaining a very healthy and vigorous man when his friends are starting to slow down, his life span will not be as long as if he had not been bitten.

If a character was deceased before the series started, the word “deceased” immediately follows the entry. The novels and stories in which a character appears are listed in the preceding codes. If a character is only mentioned in a work and does not appear, the word “mentioned” precedes the code. If a character dies in a work, the word “dies” precedes the code.
Unless otherwise indicated, characters are human . . . as far as Sookie knows. But she doesn’t always read everyone she meets, so you just never know.
A:
Akiro (vampire): No other name given. Akiro takes Bruno’s place as Victor’s second-in-command just in time for the assassination party at Fangtasia. He reacts quickly when Eric attempts to stake Victor, bringing his sword down on Eric’s arm and hewing through Mindy Simpson’s shoulder on the way, killing her almost instantly. He is attacked by Thalia, who manages to do some damage before he cuts off her arm, and is finally killed by Eric after refusing to surrender. (Dies DR)
