Dark Commandos: Empires Fall

© Tanya M. Blakeley

This new series is about a group of vampires, who are both lead by and descended from a 500 year old vampire Agememnon "Non" Gage (Justin Neal Thompson), called the Dark Commandos. The Dark Commandos, an elite secret ops unit that reports directly to the President of the United States and carries out whatever job that the American government wants.

They specialize in dangerous, political powder kegs and unsavoury missions, which includes assassinations. The Dark Commandos all have their own reasons for being a part of the squad, and those individual reasons may prove to be more of a threat that their missions.

The team consists of:

Non - A 500 year old vampire, who was apparently a knight fighting in the Crusades when he joined the undead. Then in WWII he was captured by Hitler's forces and taken to a "Research" lab in a vain attempt by Hitler to create an army of the undead.

Rescued by American forces, Non was taken back to the US and offered a deal which he accepted. In exchange for him creating a team of vampires, which would later be called the Dark Commandos, he would receive an anti-vampire cure if one could be created from his DNA.

Ed "The Kid" Torin (Christopher Boicelli) - Although Ed is 48 yrs old, he is physically and mentally 19. Non turned him when he was dying in a POW camp in Vietnam. He has a soft spot for children, especially the children who are abused.

Dreyfuss (Brad Upton) - Dreyfuss is the second oldest of the Dark Commandos. Turned in the early 20th century, he went into a self-imposed segregation for several years before returning as a soldier of fortune. Of all the Commandos, Dreyfuss is the most accepting of what he has been turned into.

Sue Janic (Amber Phillips) - Is the most recent Commando. She is a CIA agent, who is convinced by a member of the top brass in Military Intel to become a member of the Commandos.

Dark Commandos will only be available on the Internet and only at the Dark Commandos' site.
