"I know who and what I am. I am the Executioner..."




























Interesting facts about Anita:

1.) Anita isn't afraid of much...except maybe needles, flying, and small/dark/crowded rooms (she's claustrophobic).
 
2.) Jean-Claude calls her 'Ma Petite', meaning 'My Little', which annoys her. She has, however, learned to live with it.
 
3.) She collects stuffed penguins and her favorite is a large one she calls Sigmund. When she is upset, she will often sleep with it.

This is the one, the only...

Anita's Advice:
 
Suspicion is healthy; it'll keep you alive.
 
You don't volunteer for slugfests with the vampires. It shortens your life expectancy.
 
Assuming the worst is always safer, and usually truer.
 
Always avoid looking a vampire in the eye.
 
Don't ever take your eyes off the vampire in front of you to glance at the werewolf in back of you.
 
Never trust people who smile constantly. They're either selling something or not very bright.






*Anita Blake is 26 years old. She has curly black hair down to her shoulders, very pale skin, and eyes so brown they're almost as black as her hair. She is 5-foot-3, short; but don't let that fool you! Anita might be small, but she's very dangerous...especially if you're a vampire.
*Her day job is at Animators Inc. where she is an animater (she raises the dead). Other than that, she is a necromancer (which basically means she can raise any kind of dead, whether they be zombie, vampire, etc.), queen to a pack of wereleopards, and head enforcer/second in command of a pack of werewolves. Not enough, yet? She is also a vampire hunter in three states. In fact, Anita has killed so many vampires that she has become a sort of bogeyman to them; therefore she is known as 'The Executioner'. She is human servant to Jean-Claude (one step away from becoming a vampire herself - and she does NOT want that), Master of the City of St. Louis, and is also currently dating him. She is also dating Micah, the other leader of the wereleopards' pard.
*She has a vampire servant, Damian, even though a human having a vampire as a servant is usually impossible. Her necromany is what keeps Damian's blood flowing and his heart beating.
*Anita is always in the wrong place at the wrong time and is always getting into some sort of mess. She makes enemies fast, and yet, the list is always so short...why? Anita Blake knows how to kill and she does it well. She's ruthless and believes in shooting first and then asking questions. According to Anita, "It's better to be alive and rude than dead and polite." However, if you are her friend, and she does have a lot of those, too, then you are safe; Anita always protects her friends and her 'people'. Anita's best friend is her browning hi-power, with which she is usally armed, most of the time. Before she became all tangled up with the monsters who she now calls friends, her closest friends were Veronica Sims and Catherine Maison-Gillitt. Her other close friend is Edward - no last name. Edward and Anita go way back. You could say that they 'run into each other' in their lines of work. Edward is a bounty hunter and an assassin; if the price is right, he'll kill almost anybody - or anything - including vampires and lycanthropes (werewolves, wereleopards, etc.).
*Anita is very sarcastic at times and is always speaking when she shouldn't. She easily ticks off the Master Vampires and they can get cranky as hell! Well, the good news is, Anita Blake never lets you down; if your looking for a sarcastic yet serious/ cute but dangerous/ good girl but badass...you've finally found her!!!

Anita has a collection of mugs she drinks from while at work. Her boss, Bert, finds some of the logos quite unappropriate...I think they're hillarious!
"Slip me decaf and I'll rip your head off."
"I'm a cold-hearted bitch but I'm good at it."
"Piss me off and pay the consequences!"
"Warning. The Surgeon General has determined that bothering me before I've had my first cup of coffee is hazardous to your health."
