Meet the new Immortals heroes!!

Tain
Born: AD 72, Roman Britain
Goddess: Cerridwen
Weapon: Roman Bronze Short Swords
Special Skill: Healing
With his red hair and blue eyes, Tain was a force to be reckoned with both in the bedroom and on the battlefield. A fierce warrior with an abundance of charm, Tain was a certified ladies man. But neither his deadly skill nor his charm was enough to prevent his capture and torture by an ancient demon. Enslaved for 700 years, Tain was forced to betray his own brothers, his healing nature and magic corrupted by a demon that sought to use him in their battle against the Immortals. Though now free of the demon’s control, he is still a slave to his own nightmares. Haunted by the pain and destruction he unwillingly caused, he seeks redemption for his past. A healer by nature, his compassion for those in need is as strong as his need to redeem himself. Tain is a warrior in need of saving and a healer in need of healing, because his compassionate nature is at war with his own darkness. Read Tain's story in Immortals: The Redeeming by Jennifer Ashley, September 2008.

Manannán mac Lir aka “Mac”
Born: AD 1295
Background: Son of Lir (Celtic God of the Sea) and Niniane (Sidhe Queen of Annwyn)
Weapon: Elfshot
Special Skill: Illusion and Glamour

Tall, fair, and green-eyed, Mac is forever young, a Sidhe with the look of a twenty-something human male despite having been around for over seven centuries. His potency for seduction is as strong as his magic, a powerful blend of his father’s water magic and his mother’s Sidhe power. His charm and sense of humor, however, is all his own, making him an irresistible draw to women everywhere. A warrior with the heart of an artist, he nurtures a deep love of music. Just as deep is his protective nature to safeguard all Celtic magical creatures—faeries, Selkies, and Sidhe alike—from death magic. Forever young though he may be, he is still a Sidhe in search of human love. After meeting a woman who turns his world upside down, and his heart, inside out, he can’t help but wonder if his endless search has finally come to an end—has he found the woman who can see past the glamour and illusion and into his warrior’s heart? Read Mac's story in Immortals: The Crossing by Joy Nash, October 2008.

 
 
Nick Blackhawk
Born: AD 1975
Background: Descended from a forgotten branch of Iroquois
Special Skill: Dream walker and chameleon (able to assume the physical form of any living creature larger than a breadbox)

Tall and muscular with dark brown hair and golden brown eyes, Nick is descended from an almost forgotten branch of the Iroquois Indians. Because of his upbringing, he is as at home in the wilderness as he is in the city. A man of strength and dignity, he most values integrity, loyalty and independence. Read Nick's story in Immortals: The Haunting by Robin T. Popp, November 2008.

Jackson Cabot
Born: 1872, Boston
Background: Once a non-magical human heir to a wealthy Boston dynasty, Jackson is now a vampire.
Special skills: Vampire mesmerism, speed, and strength

Jackson's bright future went dark in 1896 Paris, when he died and was turned vampire. After decades of slavery in the service of Europe's vampire master, Jackson discovered a secret that has allowed him to horde enough death magic to take his revenge on the two beings responsible for his undead existence: the brutal vampire who turned him, and the beautiful Sidhe muse who killed him. Read Jackson's story in The Offering by Joy Nash, in the anthology Immortals: The Reckoning, March 2009.
