Prequel story traces the origins of the centuries-old blood feud between
the aristocratic vampires known as Death Dealers and their onetime
slaves, the Lycans. In the Dark Ages, a young Lycan named Lucian
(Sheen) emerges as a powerful leader who rallies the werewolves to rise
up against Viktor (Nighy), the cruel vampire king who has enslaved
them. Lucian is joined by his secret lover, Sonja (Mitra), in his
battle against the Death Dealer army and his struggle for Lycan freedom.
