Reportedly, Leonardo da Vinci lived by that sleep. Something like one and a half hours every now and then, so he could continue his work and never have to sleep up to 8-10 hours.
We know that as a "power nap"
I had a friend who had one of those "eccentric megalomaniac" type personalities. He slept 2 hours a night and spend the rest of his time playing videogames.
He would beat a game, collect every item, unlock every secret and retain a memorized list of everything he went through. He, like myself, could remember in-depth details of storylines of stuff he'd only heard of in passing.
His doctor told him Napoleon's sleep cycle was much the same. Coincidence? I think not.
Also, Damphir is a great book series. I'm going to find a "vampyre" coven. Would you like to help me? I plan to dress in a cape and wide-brimmed-hat and bust in on them claiming to be a vampire hunter just to see if they run.
