Well, it is a question of the blood.

I am assuming vampires in Path sire the same way as the Ann Rice universe, where the soon to be vampire must drink the blood of their sire. If that were the case then I could see each vampire's blood having a distinct smell, But you would have to know the 7 originals in order to know their scent, as each filtration of the blood would pass the scent of their sire through which would dilute the smell of the original vampire somewhat, especially by Gen 10.

Steph has a pretty sure way to know who a person's sire is.. She will ask them. I am not big on the whole using any of the CS as IC knowledge. Bar character description.

Can thralls ever become an actual character?

Say, I kill off one of my character's and their thrall account. Could the thrall then become a playable character?

I know this has been covered somewhere before, but I can't find it for the life of me.

When a vampire drinks the blood of a person who is under the effects of a perception altering substance (drugs, alcohol, etc...) does that vampire also experience the effects of whatever substance the human has imbibed?

As I understand it, the answer is no, but I would like a some sort of confirmation >.>

On the wiki, Playing as a Vampire under Roleplay Tips, it has
Eating, drinking and drug use can only be done by Allurists, and only after a while of training. All other vampires would get sick and throw up the content almost immediately. Also, while they can consume those substances, Allurists do not benefit from them (which means they can't get drunk nor high).
Is this what you two were looking for?

Why not? Cobb (well, Cobb*) is Hariasa's wraith thrall.

No, Wafa. Sorry!

We were talking about thralls, enthralled by those who can bewitch humans, ever losing that bewitchment and becoming PC's instead of just, you know, the servants of vampires.

>.>


Example: Liz has Lana, who is a thrall. Say, one of my three died and I wanted to make Lana playable, I know I'll have to delete her first as a thrall and then recreate her as Lana a playable character, who has had ties to Liz and some other people she knows through rp. Is that a possibility?

Close, but not quite. That covers vampires actually attempting to eat, drink, or do drugs.

My question is about a vampire drinking the blood of someone who has either been drinking or doing drugs.

So, human downs a bottle of wine and is buzzed. Vampire drains human. Does the vampire gain the buzz?

Liz - thought you were agreeing with Ari-player there with your post under hers?

Ari-player - I would think it is treated the same.
