The most notable to me would be all of the Authority Council vampires, including the vampire who likes smoking and the two people who hit Jason because he broke up a marriage. I wonder if they are father and son?
As usual it seems like a lot of ‘filler’ roles and the vampires on the Authority Council will more than likely be the only ones involved with Eric and/or Sookie.
