Anita Blake
Anita Blake is the title character and protagonist of the ''Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter'' series by Laurell K. Hamilton. The series takes place in a parallel world in which supernatural characters like vampires and werewolves exist alongside regular humans, with Blake's jobs including the re-animation of the dead as well as the hunting and executing of supernatural creatures (mostly vampires) that have broken the law. Hamilton stated that she created the character after perceiving a gender inequality in detective fiction, with female characters rarely getting the same treatment as male heroes of the genre.〔(Missouri Author Interviews October 2003 ) 〕 ==Description== Anita Blake is a petite woman of mixed German and Mexican heritage with curly long hair and pale skin with scars scattered over her body. She is very direct and flippant in her speech, but is said to be highly competent in the professions she is involved in. At the start of the series, she is an animator (a person who raises zombies) and a vampire executioner. She is trained in several forms of hand-to-hand combat as well as in the use of several firearms, with her firearm of preference being the Browning BDM. Blake practices Christianity and is currently of the Episcopal faith, having left Catholicism since the Catholic Church has excommunicated all animators. In the short story "Dancing" she describes herself as being 5'3 inches tall. Blake is known to be carrying between four and five strains of the lycanthropy virus. As of ''Affliction,'' Anita carries wolf, leopard, lion, hyena, as well as several different colors of tiger. This is considered to be unusual in the ''Vampire Hunter'' universe, with very few other characters possessing more than one form of lycanthropy.
