When the woman he loves is murdered by a fundamentalist cult, an alchemist in 18th Century France, the charismatic Count St Germain, seeks his revenge and becomes an immortal assassin.

Hi Lucius I totally get what you mean however I think the Lincoln thing is a bit different (I hope so!). One because almost everyone’s heard of and knows about Lincoln, whereas comparitively few people have ever heard of the Count St Germain. Also, his mythical status and the conjecture surrounding his life I think makes it more interesting. Almost like this tale is a hypothesis of who he was and what happened to him.

I like the idea as I have a minor interest in the “real life” Count St Germain, but with the current revisionist history trend in movies such as ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’, I feel it would be a very big risk to write something like that right now.
