History
In 1997, Amy Reed asked the following question on FORKNI-L: "I have a question, since Nick isn't really alive, but he's not really dead either, would he be a bigamist if he were married to more than one person?" In the same post, she "married" him. When other fans demonstrated interest, she started a mailing loop and, on May 1, 1997, took the loop to a regular mailing list, thus launching Nick's Harem of Wives.
Subscribers to the list were polled, and decided that Nick would be permitted to have 35 wives, i.e. the list could have a maximum of 35 full members. Natalie Lambert was subsequently voted to be an honorary wife.[1]
Throughout the faction's website, a notice was repeated warning prospective members of the limit on membership. However, the full slate of wives never seems to have been completely filled.
In February 2008, Amy officially disbanded the Harem, citing a lack of interest on the part of the members in keeping the faction going.[2]

Members' Profiles
Some of the members wrote profiles of the characters they played in their stories of their encounters with Nick. The following are examples:
She met Nick in a London museum in the late 1800's while viewing a dinosaur exhibit. Her fascination with dinosaurs, so similar to dragons and Nick's love of archeology drew them together.
Presently she enjoys adding to her vast dragon collection, reading, scuba diving (night diving, of course), various crafts that exercise her creativity, and spending time with her luscious Nick. - from DragonLady's profile
Enid met Nicholas at one of Janette's lavish balls. Nicholas became enchanted with Enid's wit and courage. He felt she held a remarkable amount of poise for a servant.
They befriended one another. Sharing their poetry and other writing, they grew more fond of one another.
On May 12, 1599. On Enid's 19th birthday, she was reborn into the vampire world and married to her master. However, they were unable to ever share a wedding night.
Over the years Nicholas and Enid have had little contact. Enid finally earned her father's property and fortune. Enid now resides in New York City. She owns the vampire bar "Esmeralda" located in the East Village. Enid has also been trained and was accepted into The Enforcers. A select few of vampires who uphold the code.
Nicholas doesn't approve of Enid's addition to the Enforcers, but to Enid they are the family she never had in her mortal life.
Nicholas and Enid, have yet to have a reunion. However, Enid thinks of her love often and remained true to him by staying chaste vampire. Until there paths cross some night.....
