Doviello Girls
Haven't filked for a long time, but while reading the Fall from Heaven Lore subforum, I was inspired by the thread title "Oh, those Erebusian Women!" It seemed an obvious call for a "California Girls" filk, thus my first filk in several years: Doviello Girls
Now if you don't play Fall from Heaven II
(a fantasy mod for Civ IV), the humor will escape you, but some short explanations. The Bannor are a militant civilization of religious fanatics who crusade against evil. Everyone fights, and they all wear heavy armor. The Lanun are a nation of pirates. The jester's daughter is an unstable, amoral leader for the Balseraph nation who summons demons (and who considers them her best friends). And as usual in any fantasy game, Dark Elf women wear dominatrix or BDSM fetish gear (and very little of it). The Doviello are tundra-dwelling barbarians who are social Darwinists: "only the strong shall survive."
If you've an interest in dark fantasy strategy games, I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this mod. It is based on the Civ IV game engine, so it is has the civ-building aspect that has worked so well, but with a fantasy take. It is also a much richer game with many game play options. For me, it is even more addictive than standard Civ. So if this does interest you, I would recommend getting Civ IV and the Beyond the Sword (BtS) expansion. (There may be a Civ complete/Gold set). Patch BtS to 3.13, then download the current version of Fall from Heaven II. For further background and strategy tips, here's the Official forum.
Now if you'll excuse me, I've a pack of unruly vampires to nuture. "Come, my children of the night."
