Making it rogue vampires would make it a lot harder for sure, since they have to be killed via skirmish iirc. Maybe then it could just be 3 - because killing 10 would take ages XD

I wouldn't go Vampires on the Most Wanted List because not everyone is into PVP and that involves way too much risk for the reward.

Rouge Vampire I could see, though.

Would it be lame for them to just be able to 'rob' a certain number of rouge vampires? I ask cus I never got the logic behind killing things on some quests... & blood thieves aren't all going to all be hitters just like not all of them actually 'steal' vampire blood.

The previous quest is based on knowing Vampires, which used to utilise the mechanic of having Vampire IDs in the PC's list. Since this no longer works (despite some of my characters - Myk - openly using powers like Telekinetic shield on multiple PCs), I guess we need a new quest.

The Sorcerer quest requires you to flee from 10 Mountain Lions.
The Paladin quest requires you to... I don't remember because I haven't seen a Beserker in eons.

So, perhaps you just come across Wild Vampires/Masterless Vampires/NPC Vampires and encourage them to hand-over blood?

You need to encounter 10 Vampires and successfully encourage them to handover their blood to complete the quest. That can be through a series of Charisma checks or MA/FA or Dexterity/Intel.

The paladin quest is about killing 10 NPC vampires.

I like the proposal for the new blood thief quest because I was thinking about doing this for Eli, too.

Didn't you just say this? :))

The blood thief quest should be relative to their nature, which, I guess is to profit from vampire blood?

I say a lot of things. I'm like that cop who throws everything he can at you in the hopes that SOMETHING will stick :))

I'd also like to see this happen. I haven't seen a feeding in ages and last time I tried to make a blood thief it was entirely reliant on other PC's being nice to me and helping out. Whereas neither paladin nor sorcerer require that. I'm not sure yet if Segreti will become a vampire or multi-class yet, but I'd like the option to and blood thief is a good one, though I do wish there was easier ways to feed. So I'm still not sure if it's actually a good class to go with unless you're either going to rely on other people being nice, or willing to steal blood from them. It's powerful but REALLY inconvenient.



I'd suggest if we change it, aside from what some people have said, just doing what they say they do in rp. Feeding on vampires, temporarily give them a blood thieves ability to feed, and then have them feed on 10 NPC vampires (such as in the sewers). The feeding maybe strengthens them, but also causes damage, until they've fed on 10 and thus completed the quest.
