"It is the colour of a bleached skull, his flesh; and the long hair which flows below his shoulders is milk white. From the tapering, beautiful head stare two slanting eyes crimson and moody"-Elric is the ultimate BA!
I remember years ago, Moorcock wrote about what he was going through while writing the Elric books. He said he was in a destructive love affair at the time, and that might explain why those stories were so dark.

This character inspired many other edge lord characters in pop culture. I won't name names. You know it when you see it.
I read the series in high school +40yrs ago.
The tail on this series is rather incredible. Moorcock is still alive and pumping out (amazing) fiction, too.
