 +  * Doesn't kill those in his menagerie<sup>165</sup>
 +  * He doesn’t kill those in his menagerie; When he gets them, they have to stay a couple of years, but after that they're free to go; It takes that long for him to establish enough of a connection to make sure they won’t go telling anyone they meet about vampires<sup>165</sup>
 +  * Stefan is patient, his people almost always rise because he waits for years longer than most vampires<sup>203</sup>
 +  * There are fourteen that live at his house; and maybe a dozen more who visit occasionally<sup>207</sup>
 +  * Stefan began to be concerned about the same things that caused the fae to reveal themselves. He told the seethe—and the ruling council of vampires—that they could no longer live as they were and expect to survive. He had already been maintaining a large menagerie because he didn’t kill his people—he has a reputation for being softhearted<sup>207</sup>

-Character Traits & Facts: 
- 
-Education, Experience & Languages: 
-swears in ItalianBB- 
-old enough to remember the Before Times; when vampires ate as they chose and reveled in the terror and the last throes of our prey. When they fed trulyBB- 
-I have become arrogant over the years, Mercedes. I hadn’t really believed he could do anything to meBB- 
-Stefan said it had to do with an old suspicion that if you spoke evil’s name, you drew its attentionBB- 
-He began to experiment. To look for ways the vampire could benefit the human raceBB- 
-Stefan already knew that longevity was something he could offer: one of his bound children had belonged to him for over a century before another vampire killed herBB- 
-With blood-borne diseases the vampires help a lot, things like sickle-cell anemia and a host of lesser known stuff. Stefan had some success with some of the autoimmune diseases, like MS and HIV. Except for the leukemia, though, Stefan found that he couldn’t help cancer patients—or full-blown AIDS patientsBB- 
-went to Chicago to make sure Andre didn't make more vampires thereBB- 
-powerful in his own right. He’d been a mercenary in lifeBC- 
- 
-I remember when all I wanted was to ride a horse. We had four at my home when I was growing up. Two were plow horses. One was a pony my mother used to go to market. The fourth was a riding horse that just showed up one day wearing the remains of a saddle. One of his knees was enlarged, and it was sore for months afterward. It never really went down, but it didn’t seem to bother him much after he rested up. We kept waiting for someone to come claim him, but no one ever did. I learned to ride on himNB- 
- 
-Spirituality & Personality: 
-a habitual thing with him; he was seldom absolutely stillMC- 
-his mother taught me to take care of his friendsMC- 
-he used the phrase "I give you my word of honor.” Like a man who meant itBB- 
-swallowed enough death in years past that more sickens himBB- 
-the small touches that Stefan affected to make humans more at ease, like blinking or breathingBB- 
-calm, quiet StefanBB- 
-He is charming, funny, and generousBC- 
-It worried me that he wasn’t hiding his ability to teleport. As if it didn’t matter what people knew about himBC- 
-chivalrous and gallantBC- 
-thinks he's a villain, not anyone's heroBC- 
- 
-stubbornBC- 
-has a lot of controlBC- 
-another soldier who'd been used too hard and had finally brokenSB-193 
-Stefan was resilient, smartRM-04 
-like Superman, but with fangs and oddly impaired moralsRM-04 
-not such a bad guy for a vampireRM-27 
- 
-had always liked people but the new, more vampiric Stefan seemed to enjoy killing moreFB-73 
- 
-a lot of people underestimate our Soldier, our StefanNB- 
-patientNB- 
- 
-Talents & Skills: 
-could not be easily imprisonedBB- 
-Stefan has more care when he bites someone; he wouldn't leave a markBB- 
-Stefan’s return donations keep her cancer in checkBB- 
-all of them lose control sometimes when they are feeding. Even StefanBB- 
-bows gracefullyBC- 
-not without resources. I was in this room for a quarter of an hour, and none of you noticed me. If I feed well, no one will know what I amBC- 
-You don’t get to be as old as Stefan is without being able to take care of yourselfBC- 
-f I have exchanged blood with someone twice, I can always find him, no matter where he goes. I could call him to me—and if he is near, I could force him to come to me. But that is with a true blood exchange—yours to me, mine to you. Eventually ... it is possible to force a master-slave relationship upon those you exchange blood with. A precaution, I suppose, because a newly turned vampire can get nasty. A simple feeding is less riskyBC- 
-a flick of his wrist and the magic of a Highlander episode, he held a sword in one hand. It was efficient-looking rather than beautiful: deadlyBC- 
-seldom teleported in front of peopleRM-10 
-Stefan had always liked people. I hadn’t noticed before that he also enjoyed killing them. Maybe that was part of the new, more vampiric StefanFB- 
-Stefan had incapacitated both men without either making a sound. Pretty efficientFB- 
- 
-Health & Fitness: 
-his pulse and breathing tended to be erratic; sometimes Mercy thought he only breathed because he knew how uncomfortable he made people when he didn'tMC-165 
-after Littleton bespelled him he was moving like Marsilia; like a puppet, or an old, old vampire who had forgotten how to be humanBB- 
-Stefan once told me that most vampires breathed because not breathing attracted human attention. I think, though, that some of them do it because their not breathing is as troubling to them as it is to the rest of usBB- 
-seen Stefan lift his VW Bus without a jackBB- 
-Stefan was tortured by Marsilia; human-sized something, black and crunchy; She’d tortured and starved him and let him free to come to MercyBC- 
-Old vampires are subject to fugues; We don’t handle change as well as we did when we were humansRM- 
-Stefan is in real trouble. He’s lost a lot of his menagerie, and he hasn’t replaced them. They’re dying; he was dyingRM- 
-wasn't emaciated, but he had never regained the healthy look that he'd had before Marsilia's betrayalFB-71 
-Marsilia’s betrayal and the destruction of his menagerie had nearly destroyed himFB- 
-he had an awkwardness about him now, like most older vampires; as if he knew how he should act but couldn't quite feel it anymore; like he'd given up his last firm anchor to his humanityFB-72

- 
-Stefan a long time, most of our conversations are about carsBB- 
- 
-worked on them from time to time in lieu of making a cash payment to the seethe. All the businesses in the greater Tri-Cities who weren’t affiliated with more powerful groups paid protection money to the vampires. That’s how I first met Stefan. He had helped me negotiate my payment from cash (which I couldn’t afford) to work—mostly on his van, as it turned out, though I did the upkeep on the seethe’s cars as wellBB- 
-exchanged blood with Mercy to help her get the strength to kill LittletonBB-

-I’m not used to being so alone. I was dreaming, and there you were, the only one left with a tie of blood to me. I thought I dreamed that, tooBC- 
-because of Blackwood Stefan and Mercy exchanged blood again; she tied herself to him rather than be Blackwood's; But I’d made the decision to put myself in Stefan’s powerBC-

-With Marsilia: 
-was in love with Marsilia and she killed it with her neglectChat 2007--06-24 
-Stefan, who of all of us, is able to resist the Mistress’s, his maker’s, commandsBB- 
-Stefan never had to play slave as the rest of us did; He was never a thrall. It happens sometimes, but such vampires are always killed upon their first rising. Any other vampire would have killed Stefan as soon as it was apparent that he wasn’t under their control, but Marsilia was in love. He gave her an oath of obedience he never broke itBB-

-If she weren’t mad, she would never have tortured you—her favoriteBC- 
-Marsilia was certain that you were so fond of your last flock that you wouldn’t have the stomach to replace them soonBC- 
-I am an old soldier,” he told Bernard. “I serve only one, even though she has forsaken meBC- 
-Maybe Stefan wasn’t the only one who lovedBC- 
-He might love her, but he didn’t like her very much at the moment—and, I hoped, didn’t trust her eitherBC- 
-You were never mine, really,” she told him. “You had always your free willBC- 
-she destroyed his power baseBC- 
-Stefan, of all of us, was loyal to the death. So you tortured him, killed his people, threw him out—because you knew that he’d refuse us. That his loyalty was such that despite what you had done to him, he’d still remain yoursBC- 
-For some reason she had to convince Stefan that he was out of the seethe. Then, when her traitors approached him, he had to refuse their offers before he could witness that they’d made them; she needed outside verificationBC- 
-she had no understanding of Stefan’s attachment to his people ... because humans were foodBC- 
-You didn’t actually kill his people; You just hurt them and ripped his ties from them so he’d think they diedBC- 
-wasn't recovering well from Marsilia's betrayalRM-05 
- 
-With you in the seethe, Marsilia will fight to protect Mercy because she is needed to keep you in line. You have been Marsilia’s Soldier for four centuries and more. Marsilia needs youNB- 
-Marsilia will give her word that she will not touch the bond you share with Mercy, won’t try to claim her for herself—no matter how useful a tame walker would beNB- 
-Stefan refused to rejoin the seethe; he would not take the chanceNB- 
- 
- 
-With the Wolves: 
- 
-Warren and Ben went with him to hunt for LittletonBB- 
-after Stefan was tortured by the seethe Adam fed himBC- 
-Peter then Ben were willing to feed him nextBC- 
- 
-Adam stopped Stefan from making Mercy one of his sheep after he thought that Marsilia had killed all his menagerie; Adam made Mercy his mate and she became packBC- 
-Warren thinks he's cute when he's madBC- 
-Adam thinks that If you have to listen to a vampire, Stefan’s not the worst choiceBC- 
-fed from Warren during Bad Movie NightRM- 
-Adam talked to him and told him to replenish his menagerie; Ben watched his people and Warren would go with him to Portland to look for more peopleRM- 
-been seeing more of the vampire and less of my friend in him lately, and I didn’t like it. I didn’t like it enough that I seriously considered not contacting him for helpFB- 
- 
-With Andre: 
-is angry with Andre for making Daniel who belonged to StefanBB- 
- 
-Andre would have given Daniel back but he was waiting for Stefan to ask; dominance gameBB- 
-Stefan was convinced that Andre had done it on purposeBB- 
-when Andre thought he was dead both he and Marsilia wore white to honor himBB- 
-Stefan revoked Andre’s entry into his houseBB- 
-Anything that could take out Stefan could wipe the floor with old Andre out thereBB- 
-He was terribly jealous of Stefan because Marsilia favored him—and at the same time he loved Stefan like a brother. So when he was angry he attacked one of us instead. Vampires don’t usually care too much about the sheep in their menageries. I don’t think Andre realized just how angry Stefan would getBB- 
-Stefan had known there was a good chance he’d be freed: that’s why Stefan had worked so hard to get evidenceBB- 
- 
-With the Vampires: 
-used the vampires super-insult towards Littleton; That’s what happens when you are newly made and abandonedBB- 
-was bespelled by Littleton who gave him false memories to make him think he was in bloodlustBB- 
-If they believed that Stefan had really lost control, the way he remembered doing, they would execute him; The vampires would not tolerate anyone who threatened the safety and secrecy of their seetheBB- 
-have never answered to your own maker, you believe a new-made vampire—excuse me—sorcerer was able to hold you in thrallBB- 
-Wulfe betrayed him to Marsilia about covering up Mercy killing AndreBC- 
-not impressed with BernardBC- 
- 
-both Estelle and Bernard tried to persuade Stefan to join them in overthrowing MarsiliaBC- 
-no longer part of the local seetheFB-62 
- 
-acted as Master of Ceremonies for the Marsilia/Frost challengeFB- 
-Stefan cut off one of Wulfe's hands with his sword when he was going to use magic again MercyNB- 
- 
-With His Menagerie: 
-doesn't kill those in his menagerieBB- 
-there are fourteen that live at his house; and maybe a dozen more who visit occasionallyBB-207 
-Daniel was one of Stefan’s when he was human. He was more fragile than he appeared and he died while he fed Andre; who turned him and made him hisBB- 
- 
-Stefan is seldom typical of anything;  the stereotype of a sheep is present here, but not all encompassingBB- 
-at least ten people besides Stefan living in the houseBB- 
-is Stefan doesn't come back they're all dead; Marsilia will farm them out or kill themBB- 
-Most of them aren’t as careful with their food as StefanBB- 
-He doesn’t kill those of us in his menagerie; When he gets us, we have to stay a couple of years, but after that we’re free to go; It takes that long for him to establish enough of a connection to make sure we won’t go telling anyone we meet about vampiresBB- 
-The longer they stay bound before they die, the better the chance they’ll rise again. Stefan is patient, his people almost always rise because he waits for years longer than most vampiresBB- 
-but most of them don’t have Stefan’s control. But we are Stefan’s. That means that their mind tricks won’t work as well on us—and those of us who are bound like Joey…When a bound one is made over by someone they’re not bound to, odd things happen. I’ve heard people say that’s why Stefan was never properly subservient to Marsilia, that he was bound by a different vampire. They won’t want to keep us around longBB- 
-There are fourteen of us who live here, and maybe a dozen more who visit occasionally. Stefan doesn’t usually kill his preyBB- 
-Stefan began to be concerned about the same things that caused the fae to reveal themselves. He told the seethe—and the ruling council of vampires—that they could no longer live as they were and expect to survive. He had already been maintaining a large menagerie because he didn’t kill his people—he has a reputation for being softheartedBB- 
-not many vampires can afford to support as many people as he isBB- 
-most vamps cannot control as many people as Stefan. There aren’t many vampires who can make their sheep love themBB- 
-somehow doubted that those people, mostly women, could live together devoted to one man without some sort of vampire mesmerism at workBC- 
-had been trying to prove that it was possible to live without killing but after the betrayal wasn't trying very hard anymoreRM-06 
-It was Stefan’s job to take care of his peopleRM-06 
-Stefan makes Ford stay insideRM- 
-Stefan wouldn't talk to any of his menagerie after Naomi diedRM-11 
-only had four left in his menagerie after Marsilia's betrayalRM-11 
-Poor Stefan had tried to curl up and die because Marsilia had sold him out—and he’d done his best to take the remnants of his menagerie with himRM- 
-a vampire’s menagerie is made up of victims,” Adam answered. “Most of them die very slowly. Stefan’s better than the average vampire, but they are still victimsRM- 
-Stefan was gentler on the people he fed from than other vampires I’d come into contact with. He found broken people or people who needed something from him so that the exchange—their blood and the course of their lives for whatever a vampire might provide them—was, if not even, a little more balancedNB- 
-Most members of a vampire’s menagerie died slowly, but Stefan’s people, mostly, thrived under his careNB-
