Vlad the Imp (Pays L'hier)

person. Russian leader famous for his diminutive stature, broad puckish sense of humour, and his misguided desire to restore the glories of yesterday to his country. The practical jokes he has played on Europe, often involving complex troop movements, false accusations of Nazification, and massive death counts, are considered by some to be legendary, although, admittedly, you really had to be there, trembling under his maniacal gaze in the Kremlin war office, to truly appreciate his wit.

..............................

I hear Vlad the Imp (Pays L'hier) will visit Paris in the spring. He plans to see the sights, destroy the sights, then crap in Napoleon’s alabaster sarcophagus.

What a joker!
