***Warning - Some Spoilers***
This season on True Blood we’ll be introduced to Calvin Norris, a character who will play a large role in the lives of both Stackhouse siblings as the series progresses. Although he is first introduced in the fourth Sookie novel, Dead to the World, we will meet him early in season 3 as Alan Ball & Co. speed up various plots.
Calvin is a full-blooded werepanther and the leader of the werepanther community in Hotshot, LA. This little community huddles at a crossroad about 10 miles away from Bon Temps, putting them in easy proximity as Sookie finds out more about the supernatural world around her.
The book describes Calvin as a small man, about 5′7″, in his late forties. He has green-gold eyes, short hair, and a trim beard salted with gray. His short stature is offset by an agile build and muscular arms. He is employed as a crew leader at Norcross, a local lumber mill, in addition to his duties as leader of Hotshot.
Sookie becomes involved with Hotshot thanks to Jason and his interest in Crystal Norris, Calvin’s niece. Per the book, years of inbreeding in Hotshot has weakened the shifters’ powers. In order to bring fresh blood into the community, and knowing about her gift, Calvin offers Sookie his protection and suggests that they procreate. She turns him down but does remain friends with him and in contact with the werepanthers, leading to further exposure of the hierarchy and rules the community lives by.
Gregory Sporleder will play Calvin Norris on True Blood.
