''The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod'' is a 5 book series by Heather Brewer. It is centralized around Vladimir Tod, a teenaged [[Half
The books in this series are...

#''[[Twelfth Grade Kills]]''
{{tropelist}}
* [[Aerith and Bob]]: This is especially noticeable with the vampire names. We have Tomas and Otis, and D'ablo, Cratus, Jasik, and Dorian.
* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: D'Ablo thought he could become the Pravus by extracting Vlad's Pravus powers and injecting them into himself. He attempted this at some point-- the powers were supposedly a tangible, fluorescent purple liquid. {{spoiler|Vlad was able to break free, but in the process broke the syringe and spilled his Pravus powers all over the floor, therefore losing them.}}
Line 27 ⟶ 26:
* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: Vlad could be considered a Type 2 towards Meredith, and Snow could be considered a Type 1 towards Vlad.
* [[Dysfunctional Family]]: Vlad's uncle is in love with his "Aunt" Nelly (who actually was just a really close family friend), Vlad's grandfather tries to kill him, and {{spoiler|his father faked his own death}}.
* [[Eerie Pale
* [[Et Tu, Brute?]]: Vlad to Joss in ''Tenth Grade Bleeds''. Though the words are never actually said in the context of the story, one of the chapter titles is ''Et Tu, Joss?''
* {{spoiler|[[Evil Mentor]]}}
* [[Evil All Along]]:In the last book we find out that {{spoiler|Tomas}} created Vlad so that he could take his powers and become the Pravus, and {{spoiler|Vikas}} had been helping him the entire time.
Line 43 ⟶ 42:
** Not to mention how half of "Eleventh Grade Burns" is Vlad crying about how they need to be friends again! He talked about losing {{spoiler|Joss}} more than Meridith!
* [[For Halloween I Am Going As Myself]]: For Halloween in ''Eight Grade Bites'', Vlad wears plastic fangs and a black cape.
* [[Half
* [[Handsome Lech]]: Henry.
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: Vlad and Henry, all the way.
Line 53 ⟶ 52:
* [[Like Father Like Son]]: Vlad is often compared to his father. His name written in Elysian Language is almost exactly like his father's. He also carries around a journal that says ''The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod'' to mirror one his father had, which said ''The Chronicles of Tomas Tod''.
* [[Love Triangle]]: All over the place.
* [[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: Otis Otis, Vlad's weird teacher who Vlad thought was out to get him, ends up {{spoiler|being Vlad's uncle.}}
* [[MacGuffin]]: The Lucis, to an extent.
* [[Morality Pet]] : Henry is one for Vald
* [[
** Joss is possibly named for Joss Whedon, creater of ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]''
* [[Off the Wagon]]: Vlad
