Essays from Draoithe

Research into the original Little Red Riding Hood stories for a novel project in the Draoithe Saga by Ophelia Kee produced interesting results, and the summary sparked the creation of a research video based on those results. Writing steamy paranormal romance set in a dark urban fantasy setting isn't easy and often involves hours of behind-the-scenes research for the author to craft believable characters in a magically realistic world. It's always fiction, but even make-believe needs inspiration.


Steamy hot, wickedly delicious paranormal romance and urban fantasy stories set in a dream to live for. Those who come to Draoithe aid in the fight to restore the magical balance of the dream, one couple at a time. Grab a good drink, curl up in a good seat, choose a book from the Saga, and escape into the dream while you meet the men and women who call it home. A place where myths, legends, and fairytales walk among the strange and wonderful, where the balance is often found in a lifemate, and where the magic from the past lives again! Welcome to the dream...

Vampires: Villains, Heroes, and Bloodlust 1/12/2025

  The Thirst, a term used by vampires to describe their need to ingest blood to keep their immortal existence. Some feed on animals, others on humans, and still others feed on their own kind and other immortals. -Excerpt from A Treatise on the Vampire's Nature, Duncan O' Sullivan Vampires: Villains, Heroes, and Bloodlust  Vampires have long enthralled audiences with their dark allure and insatiable appetite for blood, and represent a complex mixture of seduction, danger, and moral ambiguity. The Draoithe Saga often portrays vampires as unlikely heroes, antiheroes, and tragic victims. As dark urban fantasy and steamy paranormal romances, the stories set in the dream usually offer sexy vampires as main characters who find love and ultimately join the fight to balance the magic of the dream and preserve their eternal existence. But what happens when rogue vampires succumb to bloodlust? In the modern dream, vampires live in enclaves, ruled by powerful vjestice vampire princesses. ...

Incubus and Succubus Research 1/19/2025

  Incubus and Succubus Research Essays from Draoithe “I don’t care how dangerous it is. This isn’t living. I watch all my people barely survive. We constantly fight the slug incursions and lose more of us. There’s no happiness here. So long as I remain unbalanced, so, too, does the entire house.” -Sandor Liderk, living in squalor at Talamh Marcra, 2010 In Tantalu, the prequel tale in the Draoithe Saga by Ophelia Kee, readers meet Sandor Liderk, the Prince of the House of Liderk and the owner of Tantalu Ostain. Liderk is an ancient incubus demon family which rivaled the House of Incubai for power in the Netherworld. A war with the Satyrs nearly eradicated all incubus demons from the dream. With the remnants of the House of Liderk forced to live in poverty at Talamh Marcra, Prince Liderk sought a way to reunify his people and risked everything on rebuilding in the Leaindeail. It's a twisted fairytale meant for adults. But what are incubus demons? How did Ophelia Kee write these ...
