Day of Broken Glass Questions

Post by Amalea »

If I'm reading this correctly, it seems that all humans who sign up will be required to hunt down vampires..... is this correct?

No. The humans who are hunting vampires will be provided in the form of prompt on the day the event begins. They will all be NPCs because it is a closed, contained unit

Playable humans can, of course, participate in other ways. In fact, I would love to see that, but I won't go into too much detail about why, or what I would specifically like to see!

I may have overlooked it, but can we sign up alts for this or just one character per person?

Will this be a situation where vampires are actually killed on the grid? It would add to situation I think if there is actually a chance a vamp char could be knocked into the shadow realm for being part of this as well as the potential rp in the affair.

Do you have to be in a group?

Can you play a solo thread?

Who plays the attacking Humans?

What happens if the Humans win?

Levi’s anti-social, so it’s not likely he’ll be willing to get along with others. He has three businesses that could be sabotaged by this, so he might be desperate enough to seek Vampire help. Might.

On the other hand, he’s also a Capo… He would have plenty of Human Gangsters working for him. Can your NPC/PC colleagues be involved in the attack?

You can sign up as many characters as you want, just have to abide the rules (I. E. They can't work together etc etc).

I would personally LOVE for some of the vampires (my own included) to end up potentially killed. Unfortunately, it's my first side story, and I don't want to be in a position where it feels like I'm forcing people to kill off their character, if that makes sense. So for this event, people may have their character die or be seriously maimed, but that is up to them, at their discretion.

No, but people who aren't, are going to be at a serious (obviously) disadvantage.

Can you play a solo thread?


If you want! I mean obviously you'd have a very hard time getting the karma prize if you did that, but there's no compulsion to work with other people if you really don't want to. However, the event is set up for the sake of collaboration.

But the idea of a lonesome vampire being attacked by a group of humans during the daylight hours sounds fun!

Who plays the attacking Humans?


They're NPCs, so the writers involved in the thread.

What happens if the Humans win?


Specific to individual threads? That's your call. Maybe they maim their target and have to leave for some reason. Maybe they kill their target.

Specific to the side story? You'll have to wait and see.

On the other hand, he’s also a Capo… He would have plenty of Human Gangsters working for him. Can your NPC/PC colleagues be involved in the attack?


I'd prefer if any NPC helping vampires be thralls, or employees from businesses, if only because I want to avoid vampire characters completely avoiding the conflict altogether - if that makes sense! Which is to say; sure! Feel free to use NPCs, just don't go crazy with it. And bear in mind that the humans involved would be exposed to the sleeping vampire, which may or may not be an issue for them.

Thanks for the help! ^^

Levi is an Antiagrypniac Daywalker, so, he would be awake for the ordeal... just angry and tired and so not in the mood to deal with idiots attacking his own personal brand of employed idiots. XD

It would amuse me beyond measure if he died. It might teach him a lesson about working well with others. <.<

Oh man. I totally want him and Whit to work together now, because Whit also owns several businesses, and is basically just this non-social corpse boy. D: Worst. Team. Up. Ever!

I totally look forward to seeing what you come up with though. XD

They would be catastrophic together!

Let me introduce you to Levi's curses:

Vampiric Scarring, Concerned Relatives, Othello Syndrome, Weakness to Toxins, Pride Before a Fall, Gradual Turning, Insatiable Hunger, Territorial Vampire.

I didn't exactly start with the intention of making him the most anti-social Vampire to ever stalk the streets of Harper Rock, but he's been here officially 16 months and he's made... 1 friend. <.<

I'm not even sure I can count her as a friend either. >.>

If you could recommend some further ways to screw him over, I'm all ears! :))

You also need to tell me more about Whit, though maybe via PM or whatever so I'm no longer derailing a thread. Sorry!
