Could male vampires or a male vampire/male human conceive? Could the same happen for females only in some fashion? Since vampires are more spiritual beings than physical, I feel like it could be possible.
A friend of mine suggested possibly doing a ritual to pay tribute to a blood god for whom I don't quite recall a name. Does a blood god that would have such a chaotic interest exist?
This could make for some royally fucked up role play. >3 *devious smile*
No, I don't already have plans if this is accepted. >_> <_< Don't look at me like that!
Fadebeasts are partly physical, and thus they gestate inside females.

As for the blood god, I'm not sure what you're talking about. Are there such things?

Can people shout through them, hear through them, see through them, etc etc etc
I think I might have explained that on the update thread. I'm not certain.

As of right now, the dead cannot speak or pass through the windows. I'm unsure about hearing through them. If it becomes possible in future, I'll add an in game mechanic to explain why it's possible now.

It'd still be a fadebeast. I'll leave it up to you if you want to describe the fadebeast as slightly more animalistic in appearance, though. And no the female wouldn't be stuck as an animal.

Also - if the answer to the above is no,

If something happens on the hardcore RP board - should it be mimicked on the grid? So if a roll happens where a thrall dies, should they be deleted and a new one made on grid?
Yes, necros can raise zombies, so it would make sense that they can reanimate a dead human as a zombie. With writer permission, and only for roleplay ... for now. They wouldn't be able to bring them back to life though; they'd just be a zombie.

And I'd say yes to the hardcore RP board thing. But not a strict yes. I mean, if you get hit in roleplay I don't think there's a need to actually make sure you get a wound in game. But on the other hand, if you die in roleplay, yes I think you should go to your settings and click "kill", especially if it's done on the hardcore board.

I know that UV light doesn't specifically hurt vamps, but is there any specific component of the light that hurts vampires?

In other words, is there some kind of material that isn't opaque that a vampire could use as a window during the daylight hours? Alternatively, something that would make sunlight dim enough to trick a vampire to approach it? Some kind of dark lens or dimming material? One-way mirror? Enchanted glass?

Somnambulism

This power, from a roleplay standpoint, acts like hypnotism which only works on humans. A human under the influence of this spell will become docile and highly suggestive, as if sleep walking, and will allow themselves to be fed on without any struggle. In roleplay, this spell always works on normal humans (even PCs).
Can this be used to hypnotise humans for other reasons? So, you don't have to feed on them, you could just get them to do other things and such?

With the long-time change that had been made to the grid mechanics of necuratism, how does this change the canon of it's rp? A necurat, now, doesn't increase in power any differently than anyone else. There's still previous story line of it's purpose for power...but has something changed over time to nullify these changes in an rp sense? Or is necuratism essentially stripped down to merely being 'vampire cannibalism' or more of a ritualism?
