Viktor

Nome: Viktor

Raça: Vampiro

Posição: Senhor da Fortaleza e Vampiro Ancião

Estado Atual: Morto.
Interpretado Por: Bill Nighy

Manipulador, inteligente e poderoso, essa é a temível combinação que resulta em Viktor, um dos lordes vampiros.

Seu coração de pedra é provado quando mata a prórpria filha para impedir que um híbrido, uma aberração, seja parido e interfira na ordem natural. "É um milagre" disse Sonja. Mas seu pai não acreditou que algo tão... horrível poderia ser um milagre, muito pelo contrário. Que poderes ou forças uma criatura dessas poderia ter? Está aí então as ações de Viktor tomadas pelo medo.

Ao contrário do que esse vampiro esperto e habilidoso possa transparecer, ele sente falta de sua filha e se arrepende de não tê-la vigiado o suficiente para que ela não tivesse se relacionado com um animal.

Viktor, Marcus e Amelia, os três Vampiros Anciãs, enfrentam William e seus terríveis Lycans, o inicio da criação destes abominaveis monstros. É claro que Viktor está no comando.

Como punição ao tratamento "carinhoso" de Marcus pelo irmão, Viktor ordena que prendam o lobisomem em uma prisão "especial", (spoiler) que será fabricada pelo pai de Selene.

Após a fuga de Lucian, ele estando com a chave da tumba de William, Viktor decide matar todos aqueles que sabem do esconderijo do primeiro Lycan. Ele chega na fazenda e cumpre seu objetivo, com uma pequena exceção: a menina Selene, aquela que estava com tanto medo, aquele que lhe lembrava sua adorada Sonja. Tomado pelas lembranças e sem a coragem necessária para matá-la, Viktor transforma Selene em uma vampira, e passa a criá-la como se fosse sua filha, colocando-a em um ninho de mentiras e cheio de motivos para odiar os Lycans.

Mas a verdade é descoberta. E Selene obtem a vingança sob aquele que matou sua familia, e também fez a vontade de Lucian após a morte desse.

Talvez, embora provavelmente sim, nunca tenha existido nenhum vampiro mais manipulador e friamente emotivo do que Viktor. Mas os tempos não acabaram.

QUOTES:

Anjos da Noite:

• "I loved my daughter. But the abomination growing in her womb was a betrayal of me and the coven. I did what was necessary to protect the species. As I am forced to do yet again."
• "Your incompetence is becoming most... *taxing*."
• "It is the oldest story in the book; he desires the one thing he cannot have."
• "What's... this... *ruckus*?"
• "There is a good reason why these rules were created, and they are the only reason we have survived this long!" 

A Evolução:

• "Viktor: Marcus!
  Marcus: He was not to be harmed. Place him in my charge, as we agreed, or you will pay for your deceit.
  Viktor: And you will learn your place. Your sympathy for this beast is foolish. Your brother is entirely beyond control. It will be done *my* way.
  Marcus: You know well the consequences if your murder me. Or William.
  Viktor: If you so much as speak his name again you will have chosen that future for him.
  [Marcus looks to his sides - Viktor's warriors have their crossbows poised at him.]
  Marcus: What is thy will... my lord?
  Viktor: Imprisonment for all time. Far from you."

A Rebelião:

• "Without the loyalty between us... We are no better than the beasts at our door. " 
• "Do you not realize that what I am giving you is a gift?"
• "You are credit to your race. Do you know how to remain so? Keep your eyes on the ground."
• "Viktor: You defiled my daughter...
  Lucian: I loved her!
  Viktor: You killed her!"
• "Thank you Coloman, The Obvious escaped me! I do not need to lift a finger, Lucian will return of his own free will. I have something he wants"
• "Viktor: I gave you your life.
  Lucian: You gave me chains.
  Viktor: I thought you would have learned by now after all these years; you cannot have one without the other."
• "Would anyone else like to be heard?"
• "Do you understand what you've done? Tonight was never about you. It was about him! I could've handed Lucian over to the council and they'd never need know about your indiscretion. But after this? Never!"
• "I should have crushed you under my heel the day you were born."

Personal Quotes:

"I got briefly mistaken for someone who might be good in bed, which was very, very good."

"I wanted to be a journalist, I thought it was glamorous and that I'd meet beautiful women in the rain."

"I've always slightly worried about the kids who play football around my house. They know I'm an actor, but felt sorry for me because they'd never seen anything I've done."

"The British consul shipped me home for 25 quid and I had to pay my father back, he was a wee bit cross." (about being in Paris)

"You come to realise there is this huge disparity between what you think about yourself and your work and what other people think about you and your work, at first you either think they're insane or that it's a conspiracy to make you look stupid. Or maybe, just maybe, they're right, and you're sometimes quite good at what you do."

"There's a bit in Performance, one of my favourite films - with James Fox giving one of my favourite performances - and there's a scene where he's getting ready, and there's a bit where he arranges his Playboy lighter, and the magazines, and the ashtray, perfectly symmetrically aligned on the coffee table, the funky coffee table. And then he gets his tie and his shirt absolutely fabulous, and the hair is right - and I love it with all my heart, and I love the whole movie, and I love him in it... And then, he looks in the mirror and says: 'I am a bullet.' And my heart goes boom."

"I don't smoke now, which is marvellous. My only addictions are caffeine and sugar."

"I even wear a suit for improvisation workshops, rolling around. Well, acting's a white-collar job, you know? You wear a suit."

"I hate design which has nothing to do with function. When I first went to work and had digs, I would arrange that there was nothing in my room, just a bed and a chair. It was like a cell. And I once saw this thing on the telly where there were these two guys who lived in a minimalist house. Absolutely nothing in it, but they had a deal that if they left their shoes on the stairs in an interesting shape, and they both agreed, they could leave them there. I understand that."

"There was a time when you were supposed to question everything the director said, to create some kind of conflict, out of which creativity would be born. But I love it when they tell you what to do, you know: "Start there, walk over there, say the line and I'll shout: Cut!" I think it's groovy. When we were filming with Steven Poliakoff, his first note to me - he prefaced it with: "That was marvellous", which is always a good start - anyway, his note was: "Don't wiggle your eyes about so much," and you know, my heart leapt. Because I know that. I know how to not make my eyes wiggle about."

"You know, there may be periods when you're unemployed. Great. You'll never know what will happen from one minute to the next. Yeah, fabulous. You don't know what money you're going to be making in 25 years' time. Yeah, baby! It's like being a gambler, and when I was 18, that was music."

"If you're in a play and you have the same jokes to deliver, eight times a week, it's endlessly fascinating, just trying to hit it each time, and maybe a little bit quicker, a little bit later, trying to feel the air in which you're about to place it. To have 400 people laugh at the same time, you would go to your grave trying to get it right. And it's also very glamorous when it's on film, because you're not there. I love it when a producer phones up and says: "It played very well in France. They were laughing." In France."

"I am a world-class procrastinator. I'm only an actor because I've been putting off being a writer for 35 years."

"I speculate to be sociable, but it's a very big deal for me that any work I do should be well received. As for how people generally perceive me, I don't know."

"The director (Gore Verbinski) asked me to do Dutch, and I don't do Dutch. So I decided on Scottish." - on his Scottish accent for Davy Jones in "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest"
