A character of the creation of horror author Darren Shan. Larten is the main, title character of The Saga of Larten Crepsley & is one of the main characters in The Saga of Darren Shan. Born in 1794, Larten worked in a silk factory until his cousin Vur Horston was murdered. In inexplicable anger he then killed the culprit & escaped from a mob into a crypt, where he met vampire Seba Nile. Seba offered him a chance to become his human assistant. Larten accepted & traveled with Seba, learning the ways of the vampire clan. During the vampire council in 1812 Seba left Larten with the Cirque Du Freak. One day he ended up in a town where he met a boy called Wester Flack, whose family had been killed by a Vampaneze. Wester then became Seba's assistant. Larten eventually became a full vampire at the age of 25. Larten had a rather jumbled life, involving lots of battles (& scars to prove it), & unexpected betrayal. Larten had been offered the post of Vampire Prince but in light of Wester's betrayal, he turned down the offer & went to stay with the Cirque du Freak.There he met Darren, who he blooded as a half-vampire & went on quite a few adventures with. In fact they fought a war together. Larten died in 1998, aged 204 when he was killed because the evil Vampaneze lord pushed him off a high platform onto burning stakes. If you want to find out the full story i would recommend you read the books: The Saga Of Darren Shan & The Saga of Larten Crepsley.
