I merely meant to point out that grid wise there isn't a reason to assume that vampires have an aversion to water.


As for lore wise:
542 C.E. - Theodosia's madness overcomes her. Leaving her tunnel dwelling, her collection of drained corpses, and even her rags behind, she walks into the sea, naked but for boots weighed down with rocks.. Knowing full well she will not drown, she walks deeper and deeper into the ocean, hoping to be consumed by a fae. When no fae comes for her, she continues walking under the sea.
It would seem Vampires are just fine in water.

depends on the mythos, most concern ''running water'' not just water, and in such case, use bram strokers mythos it is a barrier, deadly if crossed through, and an assortment of other mythos subscribe to that as well

What I quoted was from the wiki about Path's pre-holocaust lore. Aside from possible rp curses (which would be outside of the normal for most vampires) there is nothing to suggest that Vampires (within this game's lore) have any kind of negative reaction to water.

Not the water itself, but there may be other things lurking there that do have quite negative effects on vampires. Most noted would be fae, when they're added in full capacity.

That's exactly what I had been hoping to see, something like that. Thank you. :) Unless the Big Guy says otherwise, I'm going to go ahead and write being able to walk under water. :D

Is a Fade Portal fixed to a point in space or to something more abstract? If I fix a Portal that goes to my yacht, and then move my yacht, does the portal move with it, or does that portal now lead to an empty space above water where the yacht used to be?

I can think of all sorts of maddening tricks to pull whatever the answer is.

Mine Shafts.

Can you rp using a grappling hook to climb them?

And what about wraiths? It's ok to write them able to 'fly' up them or no?

Also on the wraiths... they can pass through the fence that is around the QZ in rp, or no?

Cliff asked this a while back. Grid-wise they can't, but RP-wise they can as they can't be seen by the human.

If your vampy is in meaner things and Monstrous mutation at the same time... is okay to rp that the animal in question also appears monterious?

Rp curses and stuff.
Is it possible to rp that out?
As in how someone got something removed?
Or should we consider that just an ooc decision and not rp it out?
