Kinda odd that the name for them contains "Dracula" but this is something we haven't discussed yet. The Blood Drop Brooch is obvious, if they are vampires it makes sense. But I had been wondering about the Black Orchid. Perhaps someone else has more information?

Coooolll... eek It's name is Lenore! I love that plant... I want to wear mine now just because of that!

And to actually be relevent, I think this could possibly put an end to the werewolf thing, since it has nothing to do with them. But at the same time, it might not thanks to the rest of the research into this plant. *sigh*

Edit: Just thought of something! Lenore is obviously a reference to Edgar Allen Poe. His nickname would be Ed, just like Edmund! Gasp! A vague and unlikely connection!

Do you mind if I add this into the thread?

Since your not online, I will add it soon and if you want it taken out I will delete it from the topic.

You never know! There could be something to that.

I believe that black Orchid are said to be able to turn a human to and from being a werewolf.

Others say that it wards them off.

First time I've heard of that.

It was for me as well. I'm trying to find it again but I forgot if it were the GCD or somewhere else. crying

But I've found that Google defines it as this:


Google
* Black Orchid is a fictional superheroine published by DC Comics. The character first appeared in Adventure Comics #428 (1973).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Orchid

* Black Orchid is a serial in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in two parts on March 1 and March 2 1982. This story was the first purely historical adventure for the Doctor since The Highlanders, and to date the last.
