True Blood is shifting its focus to a quintet of key vampires.

Following the casting of a pair of new werewolves, the HBO hit is now seeking five actors/actresses to recur on season five as members of the Authority council. Among those we'll meet next summer:

• Kibwe, who believes vampires can be rehabbed.
• Rosalyn, a Texas native with a lot of hait.
• Alexander, am irritating nine-year old who loves cigarettes.

How will these new vampires come into play? We can't say for certain, but season four concluded with Eric and Bill agreeing to team up against the Authority.
