Rogue Vampire

Ok so I'd heard about this in the wiki, that there was a rogue vampire that was an npc.

I see what appears to be a player character with the name Rogue Vampire, but I'm not sure it is actually a player character because I don't think it has any skills over level 1, no powers, and its memories seem to be missing most of what would be expected if it actually were used by a pc.

And yet, here it is, in the middle of the road (so to speak).

Is Rogue Vampire a player character? or an NPC that appears as basically an always offline player account.

Also, it says sire unkown, but afterwards has "And Chadd Worthington" or something. I have never seen that before which makes me still think it's an npc.

I think some people make characters that are game NPCs 'cause I've seen a few. Good rule of the thumb though is that if the name's in yellow, it's an NPC and if it's in white, it's a PC.

QFT

and also; only NPC's like Rogue Vampire and Thrall Vampires and the first generation Vampires will ever show UNKNOWN as a sire. That's a game mechanic, not an actual character. NPC or PC.

And yesh, some players DO make characters named after NPCs *cough*Rippper*cough* :|. I recall Isabella Drake being locked out* for hitting Apprentice Sorcerer the thrall about a year ago or so. :|


*from when attacking used to cause your charry to be unable to use tome homes or enter private lairs.

I don't think this should be allowed, honestly.

Blood and path cannot have same PC names on the sites wthout original players approval, so why should we allow pc and npc's on blood/path to?

Yeah, that would be actually really nice to stop. It’s really not easy to see when you’re mobile sometimes, either.
