Anyone who can tell me where that's from will be held in the highest esteem :)

Er... built castles, turned into a snake?

Dredged from the very back of my head, I know there was more too...

You're right, but you're also right that there's more. :)

There was a character in the very great OURPGSoc society game Inferno went by the name of Melusine. Presumably a homage to the same thing...

Um. Ancestor of the royal house of Luxembourg, and a couple of others. Book by Christabel LaMoat (LaMotte? La Motte? La Moot?).

That's all that's listed in my head. I'm avoiding google for now, but curiousity will soon get the better of me.

And you owe me a reply to one-third or so of an email. :)

Certainly, if you wouldn't object to getting it at this late stage.

And happy birthdays to both of you, by the way. :)

DING! You win. Easily my favourite book of 2002.
