Moonlight Dwelling

Humans sent the list of vampires to Talbot. These humans belong to a group called the Legion that has been around as long as vampires have been around (kind of like the Watchers in Highlander, but more deadly). They see their job as keeping the vampire population manageable, so whenever vampire populations threaten to grow too large (by whatever their definition of too large is), they will cull the flock. Besides the French Revolution, other famous historical events were also really vampire cullings.

The theme of season two would be "vampire apocalypse" -- the Legion has decided that there are way too many vampires in LA and has marked Mick, Josef and others for a culling. The human/vampire relationship would become an us vs. them that forces Mick to choose sides. Lance and Coraline would be back. Mick may not want anything to do with Lance and Coraline but "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" -- if Mick isn't on Lance's side, he would essentially be saying that he's on the Legion's side, which of course would be suicidal.  

1) Officially DEAD: Ryder, Lt.Carl, and ..brace yourselves...Sarah Whitley. Yep he said they are all done, though wouldn't reveal how they ended up gone...

2) Simone, Josef's freshie, was to be a big part of the season, however the actress playing her failed to mention she's pregnant, so they're not sure about what to do with that.

3) Beth IS indeed part of the French Royal bloodline and she does hold the key to the cure which is why she was kidnapped. He also said that because of this Beth CAN NOT be turned. Whether that means she can't because it wouldn't work or it can't because she would die was left up in the air...
