== Possibly relevant outside information == From [http://www.nntpnews.net/f4516/girl-genius-august-6-8-2008-a-248545/index9.html a discussion archived on NNTPnews.net]: * The Dreen are the bad guys in a series of novels by John Ringo and Travis S. Taylor. * Also, another race called the Dreen feature in Star Rider by Doris Piserchia. * And a race by that name appears in "Man of Two Worlds" by Frank Herbert and Brian Herbert. * Dreen is also a dialect variant of the word drain. * The Dreen appear in the 1993 trilogy written by J. Calvin Pierce about a place called Ambermere. The female Dreen is first mentioned in The Sorceress of Ambermere. In the ''Myth Adventures'' by Robert Aspirin, the first which was adapted into a graphic novel by the [[Phil Foglio|Professor]], the word “demon” turns out to be a shortening of “dimension traveler”. Robur Heterodyne’s term “angel” (unfallen demon), which the characters find puzzling, may be a reference to this. {{Reflist}} [[Category:Wulfenbach minions]] [[Category:Characters from Castle Wulfenbach]] [[Category:Extradimensional Beings]] [[Category:Sapient Non-humans]]]] {{Has-Appearances}}
