Good morning Phoenix – it’s time for Trivia Tuesday. How about some info on our fearless leader? Yep. Talking about Lucan Thorne today.
He’s an old dude – over 900 years old and a Genuine Gen One. He was born sometime in the 1100’s. He had two brothers – Marek and Evran – both deceased. He founded the Order in the mid 1300’s in Eastern Europe with Tegan, Marek, and 5 other Breed. After leading the uprising against the Ancients (killing all but one, which was hidden away), the Order eventually dissolved.

Lucan later established a Boston HQ in 1898 with Gideon to combat
rogues in that city. He is considered one of the most formidable Breed
males (as someone that has gotten a boot up their ass from him can
attest to). He drives a black Maybach and carries two titanium-edged
swords in addition to his other arsenal of weapons.
Let’s look at what Eastern Europe was like in the mid 1300’s:
• 1314 - 1317 AD Great European Famine - The worst famine to strike Europe occurred between 1314-1317. It was widespread, affecting all of Northern Europe. Eyewitness accounts tell of the poor and hungry resorting to eating cats and dogs.
• 1326 AD Isabelle Deposes Husband England was invaded by the French wife of King Edward II - Isabelle. She was supported by French troops and gained control of England as Edward II was forced to flee London. Isabelle arranged for her son Edward III to be crowned King.
• 1337 AD Hundred Year War- The Hundred Years War began when Philip VI contested the English claim to Normandy and other northern provinces. At the same time, Edward III contested Philip's legitimacy based on the fact that his mother was the daughter of Philip IV. He demanded the crown of France. Edward won the support of many Flemish towns. He ravaged the French countryside, but at first fought no decisive battles.
• 1347 - 1353 AD The Black Death- The Black Death (bubonic plague) that spread throughout Europe between 1347 and 1353 was the worst natural disaster in European history. It is estimated that of a population of 75 million people, between 19 to 35 million died. The plague was spread by rats infested by infected fleas. The plague originated in the East. Ships carrying infected vermin came to the island of Sicily. The disease spread northward throughout Europe. It took two hundred years for Europe's population to recover. One of the most bizarre results of the plague was the large-scale outbreak of anti-Semitism. Jews were accused of causing the plague. Over 60 Jewish communities were entirely wiped out in Germany alone.
As you can tell, life was no real picnic back then. Lucan has had his finger on the pulse (no pun intended) of the US Rogue situation since he and Gideon came here in 1898. Let’s give Lucan a big shout out today and thank him for his work and service. And pray that Kade, Aric and I don’t get his boots up our ass anytime soon. That shit hurts.
Have a fangtastic day my friends! <3 Brock V"""V
