- ABOUT THE EDITOR
Lisle, Mr.: No first name given. Mr. and Mrs. Lisle are shocked when they discover that Craig’s mother and brother are shifters, and they insist on postponing the wedding while the young lovers get both marital and genetic counseling. Although they genuinely like Craig, they will probably always view his family with trepidation. When Mr. Lisle arrives at the altar after walking his daughter down the aisle, he quietly suggests to Brother Arrowsmith that he lead the attendants in prayer, knowing it will be heard outside as well. (STW; mentioned DAG, DITF)
Lisle, Mrs.: No first name given. Deidra’s mother and father are taken aback when Craig’s mother and brother are revealed as shifters, and demand that the engaged couple delay their wedding until they receive marital and genetic counseling. They like Craig and the Merlotte family, but will always be a bit leery around them. (STW; mentioned DAG, DITF)
Littrell, Kempton: Father Littrell holds Holy Eucharist in the small Episcopal church in Clarice every two weeks and visits Bon Temps on those weekends to have dinner with Catholic priest Father Riordan, who comes to town on Saturdays to celebrate mass. He officiates at the Bellefleur weddings. (DD, FDTW)
Lizbet (vampire): No last name given. Voluptuous Lizbet works at Fangtasia. (FDTW)
Lochlan (fairy): No last name given. Lochlan is Neave’s brother and lover, and they are both followers of Breandan and enemies of Niall, Sookie’s great-grandfather. Lochlan and Neave kidnap Sookie on Breandan’s orders to force Niall to step down as Prince of Faery. The siblings murdered Sookie’s grandfather, Fintan Brigant, and also killed Crystal, Jason Stackhouse’s wife, and her unborn child. Lochlan and Neave joyously torture Sookie for an hour before she is rescued by Bill and Niall, with Niall beheading Lochlan during the fight. (Dies DAG; mentioned DITF)
Long Shadow (vampire): Fangtasia bartender Long Shadow foolishly embezzles money from the bar instead of approaching Eric for a loan. His duplicity is discovered when Eric has Sookie brought to the bar to read his human employees. She is able to discern the truth by penetrating the glamour Long Shadow has used on a waitress. Attacking Sookie in a fury, he is staked by Eric.
His maker, Hot Rain, mourns his loss and is not satisfied by the monetary penalty paid by Eric, so he sends his “grandchild” to seek vengeance. The attempt is not successful and ends in yet another loss to Hot Rain. (Dies DUD; mentioned DAAD)
Loomis, Audrina: A Louisiana native, Audrina takes a job as a bookkeeper at Vic’s Redneck Roadhouse when she returns to the Shreveport area with her boyfriend, Colton, to be closer to her grandmother. Loyal to her lover, whose mother was murdered by Victor, she joins Colton, Sookie, Eric, and Eric’s vampires in planning and carrying out the assassinations of Victor and his crew. Audrina is killed in the melee at Fangtasia. (Dies DR)
