    I saw the Happening in theater and about 10 minutes into the movie the screen went black and the house lights came up and it was timed just right and went on for long enough that the entire audience sat there seriously wondering if we'd all been played and that was the movie. Then staff came in and apologized, restarted the film and we watched the whole movie.

The Master wasn't sired directly by Archaeus, he was also sired by another vampire (who just hasn't been identified at this point, but possibly the Aurelius from whom he took over command of the Order of Aurelius). The Master's bloodline simply descended from Archaeus as its ultimate progenitor rather than from the demon that created the other vampires (Maloker), giving the Master's progeny a tie to that particular demon.

    Um, actually, the extra rules of the Deathnote appeared in the commercial bumpers for the anime, and were not canon to the original manga nor did they ever come up in the actual series. The only actual rules that are in the series itself are: 1- write the person's name while picturing their face, this prevents people who share names from dying accidentally. 2- write the cause of death within 40 seconds or else just a heart attack. 3- after writing cause of death you have 6 minutes and 40 seconds to fill in details such as the time of death. Light also writes in a fake rule that once you write a name down you have to keep writing names down at least once every 3 weeks or something or else you'll die in order to take suspicion away from himself.
    Of course those are only the rules that Ryuk wrote down, we later find out in the series that even the death gods themselves don't know much about their own books, as new details are revealed through Light's experimentation and other revelations, such as the fact that the book can only influence a person's behavior for 23 days, so you can't write in a time of death longer than that, if a death god intentionally uses their book to extend the life of a human they like the god will die and the human will get whatever time they had left added to their life span, a human can obtain the ability to see people's names and lifespans by giving a death god half their remaining life span, and one important rule the king of the shinigami added in a special one shot sequel, if you actually try to SELL a death note then the person who buys it will die upon claiming ownership of it, and the seller will die upon collecting the payment.
    Quick addendum to how that "misspell a name 4 times" rule, it's actually a 2 part rule, the first saying a person becomes immune to the death note if their name is misspelled 4 times, but if you try to do that on purpose then the writer will die. I think the implications of that rule are that you can't make yourself immune, and if you try to make someone ELSE immune you can do it, but at the cost of your own life.
