Lawrence (Larry) Kirkland

The magic built on the air until it pressed against me like a weight. It was hard to get a full breath. His magic rode the air, and it was strong, but uncertain. I could feel his hesitation like a touch of cold air. He would be powerful, but he was young. His magic tasted untried, undisciplined. If he wasn't under twenty-one, I'd eat my hat.
That's how Bert found him. He was a baby, a powerful baby. And he was raising his third zombie of the night. Hot damn.

(Circus of the Damned, page 147, paragraph 6)

* He prefers to be called Larry and didn't answer Anita at first when she addressed him as Lawrence. Ditto when Jean-Claude tried to call him Lawrence. He insisted on Larry.

* Currently, Larry is in his senior year at Washington University and this is his semester of job co-op.

* His car is a late-model Mazda.

* In his first "battle" at Anita's back, he got three stitches on his forhead. His first scar, but hardly his last.

* He wants to be a vampire executioner and when pressed, explained that in his hometown of Elbert, Wisconsin three years ago, twelve people were murdered by a pack of vampires. They were hunted by Brett Colby. Larry feels that since he's an animator and has partial immunity to the vampires, that he should become a vampire executioner.

* Larry's first murder scene was in BB where he got to see the apparent handiwork of a vampire. Three bodies with parts missing.

* His zombie bag is a virulent green Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles gym bag.

* Larry is able to detect the scent of Hypnotique on Anita when Seraphina messes with her mind, which would indicate that he is a budding necromancer.

* On a routine staking, Larry was attacked from behind and got a stake in his back, which required 18 stitches to fix again.
