Those Who Must Be Kept

This does not establish notability independent of The Vampire Chronicles through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary.

 * Merge into The_Vampire_Chronicles or if anyone is up to it, create a page entitled List of characters in The Vampire Chronicles and merge it there. The main page looks long enough to where you could justify a page for the characters and I know that there are more characters than are mentioned on the main series' page. But as for a separate article? I don't really see where there is so much extensive coverage to where it merits its own article outside of the series page. There are one or two brief mentions in books like this one, but it's mostly in reference to how Rice has influenced other writers. Other than that it's mostly trivial mentions in relation to book reviews where the characters are mentioned but aren't the focus of any in-depth scrutiny. If I wasn't in midterm season I'd create it- perhaps if I have time later I will. It looks like it'd serve well as just a cut and paste job for the most part.
