Greg Schwartz was dead on the money when he wrote:

Mwai!  ...  What a strangely cute typo.  It was meant to 
be "wai."  I think I'll keep it.  Mwai, Billy-Zane-Vlad!

>and Val Kilmer as Daymar. Is he cuddly enough?

MOST DEFINITELY.  In fact I think he's TOO cuddly; if Val Kilmer's 
amazing cuddliness were added to Daymar's SUPREME cuddliness, I 
might explode from the imperativeness of glomping him TO BITS.

He does have the sharp Hawkish features, though.

...  Judging by Morrolan and Aliera's reactions to being 
called "cute," they'd likely implode from outrage at being glomped.

PING.  Oooh, that _is_ a good one.  She'd have to stop bleaching 
her hair and dye it golden, though, and that might make her pout.

She's got more than Reese Witherspoon.

...  Jason Alexander.  How odd.  <tongue-in-cheek>  And to think 
that I was going to nominate him as Adron.
