Comments (Famous Bearer Only)

Conrad Phillips (1925-2016) was a well-known English actor (real name Conrad Philip Havord). He is perhaps best remembered for his long-running role of William Tell in the British television series of that name, but also appeared in many post-war British movies, and in an episode of the iconic comedy series "Fawlty Towers". During war service in the Royal Navy he reportedly was teased by comrades for his (in Britain) uncommon forename and called himself "Bill", reverting to Conrad following demobilisation.

Oh, well, he's not famous, exactly (sorry Conrad, it just wasn't meant to be), but Conrad Achenleck (of Hanna Is Not a Boy's Name notfame) is one heck of a fictional vampire. Except when he's not, which is a surprising amount of the time (read: nearly all of it), mostly due to his neuroses and insecurities (which are many). He's more a bundle of nerves than the brooding, tortured soul that his contemporaries in undeath will assure you they certainly are while fussing with their eyeliner. The only reason you'd find him skulking around dark alleys would be because of the spontaneous failure of his iPhone's Wi-Fi, and by connection most of his life. (And that's not going to happen because his connection s pretty much bulletproof- or at least it probably is, so good luck getting him to look up from the thing.) He's also got some grade-A anger management issues, and probably a stress ball in some form of rubbery decomposition somewhere. So in short, Conrad's a hypersensitive guy who's less a heartthrob than a total wimp in every sense and form, not that it stops his fans.
