Anton Arcane's reputation for depravity began in early childhood when he used to torture and molest his younger sister Aniela.\n\nDuring World War I, Josip Arcane went off to defend his homeland against the Austrian-Hungarian invasion. Ana\u00EFs and her children left Castle Arcane during the remainder of the war to stay with her cousin, the infamous German pilot Hans von Hammer. \n\nSome time after the war, the Arcane family moved back to their family estate. Anton's youngest brother, Gregori, grew up and married a woman named Anise. Anton also coveted Anise's affections, and was embittered when she instead chose Gregori over him. This led to a rivalry between the brothers that would endure for years. Gregori and Anise later gave birth to a daughter named Abigail. Anton eventually exacted his revenge against his brother by accusing Anise of witchcraft. She was taken out to the Transylvanian countryside and burned as a witch.\n\nIn 1965, Gregori Arcane returned to Transylvania from a business trip abroad. Nearing the family estate, he stepped on a landmine left over from World War II. The injury nearly killed him, but his brother Anton brought him into his laboratory and used his unorthodox processes to save his life. The surgery transformed Gregori into a shambling, near-mindless Patchwork Man. Anton kept him locked inside of a dungeon for eight years and his daughter Abigail grew up never realizing that her father was still alive. \n\nAs Anton Arcane grew older, his knowledge of biology and magic became greater. However, what he really wanted was immortality. He became the sole heir to his estate and he turned his efforts towards the creation of a race of synthetic super-beings. He kept these loathsome deformities, dubbed \"Un-Men\" secured in a dungeon in the bowels of his castle.

Transylvania has belonged to the Dacians, the Romans, the Huns, the Gepids (an East Germanic Gothic tribe), the Bulgarians, the Ottomans and the Hungarians. Transylvania was first referred to in a Medieval Latin document in 1075 as Ultra silvam, meaning \"exceedingly rich in forests, covered with forests\"; the spelling was gradually abbreviated to \"Tra-silvania\" at first, and ultimately changed to \"Transylvania\" (trans meaning \"across, over, beyond\"). The Romanian name Ardeal has a more disputed origin - it's theorized it came from everything from the Celtic word Arduenna for \"forest\", to the Khazar \"Ardil-land\", or the Hungarian name Erd\u00E9ly, or even an elision from the words aur and deal (\"gold\" and \"hill\", respectively; the word \"aur\" also means \"gold\" in modern Welsh). The Transylvanian plateau, 300 to 500 meters (1,000-1,600 feet) high (barring Spark-generated terrain changes), is drained by the Mure\u015F, Some\u015F, Cri\u015F, and Olt rivers, as well as other tributaries of the Danube. It is bounded on the west by the range termed the \"Western Romanian Carpathians\", on the east by the \"Inner Eastern Carpathians\" and the south by the \"Southern Carpathians\". Many of these mountains could have been destroyed or greatly altered during the vicious Spark-driven wars ranging over Europa. The Carpathians as a whole extend much farther, but the arc they follow begins and ends at the Danube River. The Mure\u015F River and its valley provides a relatively easy east-west passage from the Inner Carpathians, along the southern edge of the plateau, around the southern bounds of the Apuseni Mountains (part of the Western Roman Carpathians and the estimated location of the Wulfenbach lands) and into Hungary. Other routes onto the plateau would have to detour north around the Apusenis (following the Danube), or over whatever passes may be in the Southern or Eastern Carpathians. The oldest extant cities in Transylvania were founded the Dacians and their Roman conquerors. Currently, the land is settled by four primary groups: The Vlachs (Rom\u00E2ni); the Magyars (Magyarok) and Sz\u00E9kely, who identify as Hungarian; and the Saxons, decendants of German settlers hired as border mercenaries and specialty workers. \n* \"Vlachs\" (from the same root word that produced \"Welsh\" and \"Wallach\", meaning \"outsider\") descend predominantly from the Romanized Dacians, Thracians and Illyrians, the indigenous populations of the Balkans, and Roman colonists (from various provinces of the Roman Empire). They are not restricted to Transylvania, Moldavia, et al. but include the Romanians, Aromanians, Morlachs, Megleno-Romanians and Istro-Romanians. They were primarily a shepherding people in their early days and thus were spread far across eastern Europe. Their Proto-Romanian developed into languages dominating the whole arc of the Carpathian Mountains, although they remained the peasantry of the land that took their name. \n* The Magyars have an ambiguous origin, but seem to be decended from a tribe of Finno-Ugric speakers who first lived around the Ural Mountains and gradually moved south and west over many centuries. While the proto-Magyar settled around the Ob River, they were heavily influenced by Iranian neighbors, and later by Khazar tribes, the Bulgars, and Slavs. Eventually they moved into the Transylvanian plateau and gradually adapted to an agricultural life instead of raiding. \n* The Sz\u00E9kely have historically claimed descent from Attila's Huns, though the relation between Huns and Magyars is not proven. While this idea remains an important part of Sz\u00E9kely tradition and folk culture, the theory has since lost scholarly currency. Theories suggest Avar, Gepid, or Turkic ancestry, and some have dated their presence in the Eastern Carpathians as early as the fifth century. A small number of scholars believe that they are related to Scythians who might have joined the Magyars on their trek westward. Many scholars believe in a two-fold Hungarian migration to Transylvania; the Sz\u00E9kely are a Hungarian group that settled during this first migration. \n* The Saxons migrated to Transylvania in the 12th century at the behest of the then-Hungarian ruler to provide border troops (mercenaries), and help enhance the local economy with skilled miners and other craftsmen. In two major waves over the space of a century, colonists arrived from many German areas to settle around seven fortified towns in particular, especially after the devastation of the Mongol hordes. These towns led to Transylvania also being known in German as Siebenb\u00FCrgen and Septem Castra in Latin. Historically, they held a privileged social position with the two Hungarian ethnic groups. Transylvania is part of a land described in extremes - rich lowlands, dense forests, inaccessible mountains, and a wealth of fierce four-legged wildlife: bears, wolves, lynx, deer, and wild boar. When the tribe which grew into House Heterodyne settled in, it added fierce two-legged wildlife as well, and has been as productive an area for Sparky tendencies as it has for its many natural resources and proud non-sparky peoples.", "Transylvania is a region of Romania.

Some time after the war, the Arcane family moved back to their family estate. Anton's youngest brother, Gregori, grew up and married a woman named Anise. Anton also coveted Anise's affections, and was embittered when she instead chose Gregori over him. This led to a rivalry between the brothers that would endure for years. Gregori and Anise later gave birth to a daughter named Abigail. Anton eventually exacted his revenge against his brother by accusing Anise of witchcraft. She was taken out to the Transylvanian countryside and burned as a witch. In 1965, Gregori Arcane returned to Transylvania from a business trip abroad. Nearing the family estate, he stepped on a landmine left over from World War II. The injury nearly killed him, but his brother Anton brought him into his laboratory and used his unorthodox processes to save his life. The surgery transformed Gregori into a shambling, near-mindless Patchwork Man. Anton kept him locked inside of a dungeon for eight years and his daughter Abigail grew up never realizing that her father was still alive. As Anton Arcane grew older, his knowledge of biology and magic became greater. However, what he really wanted was immortality. He became the sole heir to his estate and he turned his efforts towards the creation of a race of synthetic super-beings. He kept these loathsome deformities, dubbed \"Un-Men\" secured in a dungeon in the bowels of his castle. Several years ago, Alec Holland, who had since been transformed into the Swamp Thing, traveled to Transylvania in the hopes of finding a cure for his condition. Arcane saw Holland as an opportunity to live on in a strong and powerful body. Using a technique which required a Soul Jar, Anton succeeded in temporarily switching minds with Holland. Once Holland learned that Arcane planned on using the Swamp Thing body to get revenge against those who wronged him however, he fought back. The Soul Jar was destroyed and both men returned to their respective bodies. At this time, the Swamp Thing had his first encounter with Anton Arcane's Un-Men. He nearly died in the castle dungeons but for the heroic efforts of Gregori Arcane and his daughter Abby. Soon after, Abigail learned that the Patchwork Man was actually her father Gregori. Distraught by the realization of what had happened to her father, Abigail left Transylvania. Years later, a second generation of Arcane's Un-Men were found living in the regions beyond the Carpathian mountains. A Romanian aristocrat Alexiev Gogol enslaved these Un-Men and put them on display as showpieces in his \"living museum\" at his castle. One of these second generation Un-Men, an American named Damien Kane, inspired his brethren to revolt against Gogol, ultimately killing him. Taking two of Gogol's party guests hostage, they hijacked an airplane and flew to the United States.", "Transylvania is a galaxy, possibly part of the Local Group, which contains the planet Transsexual.

It would seem in the wizard world Transylvania is an independent country from the country of Romania.

Its government type is a Feudal Monarchy.", "Transylvania has also been presented in a humorous vein, as characterized in such films as Love at First Bite, Transylvania 6-5000 and Dracula: Dead and Loving It. Love at First Bite hinted at Transylvania's involvement in the Soviet regime when members of the Russian aristocracy evicted the vampire lord and his spider-eating assistant in order to demolish the castle to make way for a gymnastics camp. In Transylvania 6-5000, Transylvania is presented as a quaint, humble community filled with jolly, affable people who have turned the lore of Dracula into a cottage industry. Dracula: Dead and Loving It was comedian Mel Brooks' attempt to lampoon Francis Ford Coppola's work on the popular 1992 adaptation titled Bram Stoker's Dracula. Outside of vampiric lore, Transylvania has since become known as the home for a wide variety of supernatural elements including ghosts and werewolves. In the 1985 werewolf sequel, The Howling II: Your Sister is a Werewolf, Transylvania was the home of a 10,000 year-old werewolf queen known as Stirba. From within her own castle, Stirba lead a coven of werewolves who terrorized the nearby villages.", "Transylvania is a historical region in the central part of Romania. The region of Transylvania is known for the scenic beauty of its Carpathian landscape and its rich history.

A castle is held in this region where Yuri is making his last stand, and the Allied-Soviet forces must destroy it. Dasha and her Soviet Commander (WWIII) rescued some scientistsd from FutureTech to the Soviets' disbelief that it was to be the Allies.", "The region has changed hands several times over the centuries. For most of the 16th and 17th centuries, it was an independent country ruled by a prince, although the prince of Transylvania accepted the Ottoman sultan as his overlord for most of that time. In 1699, it became part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and remained so until the empire was dissolved at the end of World War I. Most people in Transylvania today are ethnic Romanians and Romanian is spoken by almost all of its inhabitants. Ethnic Hungarians, most of whom speak Hungarian as their first language, make up about 20% of the population. Transylvania is also home to smaller communities of German-speaking Saxons, Ashkenazi Jews and Roma (Gypsies). The Transylvanian town of Sighisoara was the birthplace of Vlad Tepes (1437 - 1476), also known as Vlad the Impaler or Vlad Dracul, a nobleman who was famous for the cruel and bloodthirsty way in which he treated both the invading Ottoman Turks and his own people. Stories of the manner in which Vlad tortured people to death for his own amusement circulated widely in central Europe during his own lifetime. However, the popular association of Transylvania with horror (and by extension with Halloween) only dates back to 1897, when Bram Stoker chose it as the homeland of his vampire villain in his novel Dracula. Stoker took the name of the vampire count from a variation of Vlad Dracul. In the novel, the character Van Helsing speculates that the vampire might be Vlad the Impaler himself. The Universal monster movies of the 1930s and 1940s, beginning with the 1931 adaptation of Dracula, helped to form the modern popular image of Transylvania. Universal movies which feature Frankenstein's monster and the Wolfman but not Dracula also appear to take place in the same region. It is explicitly stated in Son of Frankenstein (1939) and Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman (1943) that the setting is Transylvania. However, Transylvania is never mentioned in Mary Shelley's original novel Frankenstein, most of which takes place in Switzerland. As depicted in the Universal movies, Transylvania is a region of German architecture where people wear traditional German costumes. It is the home of frightened peasants who gather in the local inn at dusk. Strangers are initially treated warmly but that soon changes if the stranger speaks about going to the castle to see the Count or the Baron. At best, the locals may then mutter cryptic warnings, at worst the stranger may be treated coldly or without outright hostility. Eventually, the peasants may tire of the Count or the Baron's reign of terror and attack the castle, brandishing torches and pitchforks. Many of the Hammer horror films of the 1960s and 1970s, especially those centered around the characters of Count Dracula or Baron Victor von Frankenstein, take place in a near identical central European setting to that of the Universal movies from thirty years earlier. However, the name \"Transylvania\" is rarely used in the Hammer films, instead there are references to towns with German names and shop signs and other notices in German often appear in the background. The kind of fantasy Transylvania depicted by Universal and Hammer amongst others, which may or may not be referred to as \"Transylvania\" in the movie, book or television program in which it appears, is sometimes referred to by devotees of popular culture as \"Uberwald\", a name which first appeared in Terry Pratchett's \"Discworld' series of novels. \"Uberwald\" is a bad German translation of \"beyond the forest\". The real Transylvania has drawn considerable benefits from its associations with horror, in that it has become a popular tourist destination. Not surprisingly, many people choose to visit the region around the time of Halloween and Halloween parties are often arranged at hotels. Largely as a result of tourism, Transylvania is one of the most developed regions in Romania today. There is also a real Transylvania University, a liberal arts school located in Lexington, Kentucky, U.S.A. They participate in the annual Lexington PumpkinMania with hundreds of jack-o-lanterns.", "A region in central Europe. After Bram Stoker's novel Dracula was set in Transylvania due to Dracula being based on Vlad The Impaler, a ruler from the region who was known for his cruelty (his father was Vlad II Dracul being from the house of Draculesti, hence Dracula) the region has become synonymous with horror.
