Actual age has been determined to be 3 and a half decades. This makes us neither young nor old, as vampires go, tending more towards the younger side of the spectrum.

You grimace. The blood in your mouth is old and cold, long since parted from its owner. But even in its dead state, it's enough to breathe life into your doll-like body once again.
You grasp the edge of the indentation you lie in and drag yourself into a seated position, blurry eyes searching for the one who revived you.

A familiar face swims into view. A minor servant of yours, will long since broken by the long-term effects of your eyes and teeth. You take a moment to take stock of your surroundings, and catch a glimpse of a silver key upon your servant…

> What is the servant?
> Human - An ordinary human, long-since enthralled by your mesmeric gaze to the point where it has no will of its own. Still as smart as it was before, though. (Male or female at your discretion.)
> Ghoul - A human that has fed of your blood, transforming it into a stupid, lumbering revenant under your direct telepathic control. Incredibly strong and fast, but dislikes sunlight.
> Warg - an animal you've ridden the senses of for long periods of time, becoming more intelligent than its comrades and becoming dependent on your control. Lacks hands, but otherwise loyal and intelligent.

> Where are you?
> The vaulted halls of a grand catacomb
> In a coffin, freshly dug up from a cemetery

Human and Catacomb are decided.
Castle will be what the key unlocks if no further votes come in.

OP, lay down the rules for vampness in this universe.

We're 300 something so unless it's ohnoamnesia we should know this shit.

Sunlight is kill? If yes is it immediate?
Can only human blood be drunk or does animal also work? Are the detrimental effects to any kind of blood? I know that in some universes dead blood is poisonous.
If sunlight doesn't kill, stake through the heart? Does it have to be wood?
Decapitation?
Do we regenerate? If yes does it require actively feeding afterwards to heal or will we always regen assuming we're well fed?
Mind fuckery? What scale are we at? Number of people? Strength of influence? Is it instant for the full effect or does it require multiple sessions?

Probs more I forgot.

>>24965549
>doll-like body
Also, does that mean you picked little kid for this, or did you just say that as a simile to show how fuckin' dead we are?

Seriously? Please, just stop.

>>24965715
Sunlight and other vampire weaknesses depend on how well you are adapted to them.
Regeneration and power of mindfuckery also vary by vampire. Some vampire are "old-master" types, some are "nosferatu" types.

This has yet to be determined in full for us; we're still undergoing character creation.

Human or animal blood can be drunk. Dead blood or animal blood tastes terrible though, and doesn't sate hunger as well as living human blood.

You shake your head, and the world clears. Your dedicated butler from the castle stands over you, pressing a glass vial of long-dead blood to your cold lips as he leans over your sepulchre.

You smile, fangs tinged with red, and seize his arm, biting into the flesh and taking his living blood to sate your rekindled hunger. He doesn't even flinch. For a long moment, your mind is once again filled with nothing but red; but the moment passes. You snatch the key from his belt, and beckon him to follow you. It's time to retake your rightful place in the castle above from the foe that struck you down.

Who managed to lay you to rest, however temporarily?

Vengeance will fall upon his entire line for his crimes against us.

Hey, OP. Looks like the mortal vampire hunter did it.

We just got resurrected or reformed naturally from dust. I seriously hope any vampire hunter that managed to take us out wouldn't be so blinded by foolish sentiment at our diminutive form (we're a freaking three-and-a-half-hundred year old vampiress, who cares if we're a slightly smaller target than usual).

Though if you're right I suppose that's all the more reason to target children as servants and potential scions.

The stats are:
Ferocity: Physical power and intimidation through savagery. Also may affect how animals treat you.

Eeriness: The degree to which you can radiate eldritch wrongness. Affects the strength of your magical abilities and mindfuckery, and how good you are at scaring the hell out of people.

Celerity: How fast and dextrous are you? How good are you at flying?

Masquerade: How good are you at ignoring standard vampire weaknesses and hiding your vampiric nature? How good are you at persuading others?

Acumen: How smart and obervant are you? How much occult and esoteric knowledge do you possess?

Discipline: How much mental fortitude do you possess? In a contest of wills, can you protect yourself? How long can you survive without blood without entering a feeding frenzy?

From chargen, you have bonuses to base stats of:

+20 to Eeriness
-5 to Ferocity
+15 to Acumen
+10 to Discipline

Yes. Oh, yes.

Does vampire blood in this setting do anything to humans?

Heal wounds? Hallucinogen?

Speaking of vamp blood, how does the sire process work? Only virgins turn while the defiled become gouls? Drain the blood and replace it with some of ours? Make them drink ours and then kill them?

>>24966633
Delicious mind controlled guests? You have such tasty ideas anon!

>>24966672
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Vampire_Diaries

TV show / book series. My psych professor last semester talked about it in front of the class sometimes when she didn't feel like actually lecturing.

And I watched most of the series because boredom, but I still don't want it in this quest.

>>24966689
I would find it hilarious if we, as a loli-three hundred year old vampire, still have no idea how to turn someone.

>>24966611
Or other such things, yes.

>>24966001

You arrive at the final set of stairs upwards into the castle, where no doubt the Vampire Hunter that ambushed you earlier lies in wait.

It's time for you to return the favor he paid you.

>>24965715
Vampire Rules as they apply to us:
We may choose to cast a reflection or shadow without particular effort. (also applies to cameras)
We can cross running water easily.
We regenerate from wounds, but it will raise our Hunger to do so quickly. If we sustain major damage, we retreat to our coffin to regenerate. The taste of blood will wake us immediately; otherwise it may require a few days to fully revive from major damage. If we're killed while regenerating, we stay dead.
Indirect sunlight is uncomfortable but can be withstood. Direct sunlight inflicts pain immediately and will set us on fire after about a minute of exposure.
Fire is bad and takes a lot longer to recover from.

> I will be away for roughly an hour. Feel free to discuss names and actions.

>>24966437
...4 unspent.
Out of curiosity, what would it take to get a fully staffed orphanage up and running?

>>24966698
Well that would depend on the guest, there are some guests that it would be wholly unwise to fuck with whether it be through their own power or organizations they are tied to, and it would be bad to get the reputation of enslaving everyone who came to us for advice if we ever wanted more guests.

I was thinking more the social forcing than the mind fuckery forcing, make them have a creepy tea party with us, you know with us talking to stuffed animals during it and pouring them tea, properly placed cobwebs on the china, taking 'advice' from stuffed animals over them, gently but firmly reprimanding everyone at the table, including the stuffed animals, about proper etiquette. See how much they take before they snap or we start laughing our ass off because they actually believed us.

>>24966727
Don't care about the name. I just want her to look really pale and have white hair like those first couple dolls.

We could walk around with a parasol (counts as indirect sun?) and the look would complement our mini-eldritch horror thing we got going.

>>24966727
Mind control:
Direct eye contact will let us dominate people outright with no save at our level of mindfuckery.
We can hold about a score of people dominated.
We can nudge people with our voice to do things in our interest. Weakly, this is just general inclination to like us (charm person); with our full weight behind it it becomes a compulsion. More reasonable requests are less likely to be resisted.
Long term exposure to our gaze, voice and feeding results in revenants or absolutely loval slaves.

>>24966742
Who said anything about enslaving? Just puppeting for a while or demanding a half-pint or so from a convenient vein if that want our help. They did come to us after all, so they should have been aware of the risks and be appropriately desperate.

>>24966798
>Moralfag in the vampire quest

>>24966742
Oh, jest read your description of the tea party. No. If we do that then they'll try taking the poor, lost child back to civilization where we will immediately be shunted into social services pool of orphans.

Oh. Oh that works well. Assuming that the hunters don't screen foster care for vampires that could work very well for what I have in mind. Good thinking anon!

>>24966727
Could you give us an idea, when you get back, on what sorts of magical bullshittery we can pull off with our Eeriness and Acumen?

I say for dealing with this motherfucker we use home field advantage, we know the terrain. Sneak up on him, start decaying his willpower by hitting him with illusions, creepy voices on the edge of his hearing, seeing things out of the corner of his eye, once he's in a suggestible state we can start telling him with compulsions to put down his weapons, that we'll protect him, that we can make the voices go away, if that works we can then easily look him in the eye and Dominate the fucker.

>>24966778
I'd prefer pale alabaster skin and long black hair, and probably a nice dress as well. I agree on the parasol.

>>24966798
Okay, I misunderstood. What we take in payment would probably differ depending on what they had to offer. If they had knowledge, books, or were of sufficient power that a favor from them was worth a fair bit we'd take that, otherwise some blood, forced servitude for a time depending on the level of favor, and so on.

>>24966823
It's not about moralfagging, it's about not developing a reputation in the community as a backstabbing mind-enslaving tart. We do want guests, life gets oh so dull if nobody ever comes to visit.

>>24966742
>Creepy tea party with us talking to stuffed animals. Pouring them tea, taking 'advice' from them and reprimanding the stuffed animals about proper etiquette.

When our guest are completely on edge. Moments away from snapping.
Seriously creeped out by our actions.....

One of the stuffed animals turns to them - moving on its own - and asks what they're so worked up about. They should relax, it's a tea party.

It. Will. Be. Hilarious.

>>24966823
>calling the guy who wants to infiltrate an orphanage for a steady supply of blood and servants a moralfag.

I'm so s-sorry anon. I'll try harder, promise!

>>24966851
I was figuring that if someone was coming to us for advice and we pulled the tea party on someone they'd already know that we're not a little girl.

And if CPS ever comes by we can just tell them to fuck off.

>>24966862
That would be utterly hilarious. I'm not sure we could keep a straight face after that. Fucking with people never gets old.

>>24966862

YES!

YES!!!

>>24966862
And then they notice our tea is red, and not tea at all...or are we pulling this with guests that know our true nature?

>>24966970
That was the idea, at least when I came up with it, if there's not in the loop it'd be silly to give out big hints like that.

>>24967005
if they're* not in the loop.

I just plain can't keep words straight today.

But yeah, we pull that on people who know what we are and are assuming that because we're a little girl vampire we're going to conform to every single creepy standard, so we dial it up to 11 and watch them squirm as we try not to giggle.

>>24967005
Eh, you can always hand our hallucinogenic tea as an after the fact explanation (I wonder if we could brainwash them to experience states of altered consciousness after drinking, say, English breakfast tea, for the rest of their lives?).

>>24967089
Considering that we can dominate people just by them looking into our eyes, I figure yes.

We are made out of mindfuckery, people's minds are more or less putty in our figurative hands.

PLANS FOR WHEN OP GETS BACK!

Observation 1, our servants were able to carry us away to safety and we can't hear the sounds of a full scale battle above. (OP should have mentioned something like that)

Conclusion 1, It was a small group or single individual. Our castle hasn't been overrun.

Observation 2, we can enslave whole groups of people with a single look, with no saves allowed.

Conclusion 2, clearly a surprise attack. Either someone came to us as a guest then turned on us, or some stealthy fucker crept in the window.

Suggested action: Use MAGIC to turn invisible, (with our scores I assume we can do this) make eye contact with the cunt that attacked us and insta-slave him.

Opinions?

>>24967149
I'd rather use MAGIC to have the furniture and the massive doll collection that we surely have come alive and attack him.

>>24967185
And risk destroying our antique doll collection?

THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!?

>>24967149
I like this.
>>24967185
But I like this even more.

We should make dolls out of the victims of our tea parties.

>>24967232
YES! YES! YES!

>>24967149
I put my suggestions >>24966856

It's probably a solo individual and we know our castle better. I'd prefer to lure him into some part of the castle and wage psychological warfare on our opponent with Magic first rendering him off balance and suggestible, then using our Voice to get him to drop his weapons and put himself in a position where we can dominate him.

Invisibility might help as well, either through making ourself invisible or just fucking with his head so he just doesn't see us.

>>24967232
We can't just go turning people who have tea with us into dolls willy nilly. Seriously, think long-term. If we get a reputation in the vampiric/supernatural community of everyone who comes to visit us disappearing off of the face of the earth nobody will ever come have tea with us ever again.

>>24967149
I'd like the irony of running to a nearby village and convincing them that a "monster" recently invaded that castle and that they must rise up and a torch and pitchfork wielding mob to deal with the menace before it is too late. Yours works though. Also, if our eyes are invisible does it count as eye contact?

>>24967232
If by dolls you mean puppetable blood bags, then I had already assumed that was the plan. If you mean desiccated corpses, then these tea parties just got much more interesting.

>>24967232
Have this playing.

"Would you like to see my doll collection?"
Then smile innocently as we close our eyes and tilt our head to the side. The music starts.

The guests sit there, visibly perturbed. They're starting to shake as the doors creek open.

Dolls made from the bodies of previous guests saunter through the entryway, moving in an unnatural manner that would betray their inhumanity were it not for their emotionless visages.

The guests are sweating at this point. They want to run. We can hear their brain screaming. But they remain seated.

"Would you like some more tea?

>>24967283
I never said willy nilly. Only the good ones make it into the collection, not the trash.

>>24967355
Blood bags go bad after a few years. Such a pity.

>>24967355
And corpse is such an ugly word. We can make them so much better than that. So much better than they were as simple blood bags.

>>24967418
>blood bags go bad after a few years.
Not if you remember t assign a servant to feed and exercise them daily.

>>24966727
How long have we been out? A few days? A week? A month? Decades? Dare I ask CENTURIES? (Maybe our butler became immortal somehow). How do we know that our enemy is still in control of our castle? Maybe our butler can tell us.

>>24966856
Honestly I sort of agree with him. We get in the good graces of the nearby town, raiding a more distant town for blood and servants. At our level of magical ability travel to a more distant town should be trivial. People are far less likely to rally torches and pitchforks if they'd have to travel a month barefoot to even reach the vampire.

>>24967283
>>24967232

Defiantly not turning on our guests or clients.
We are the mistress of this castle. Well educated, ancient and noble. We would never turn on guests in such a way.

But turning our victims into beautiful polished dolls for our collection sounds awesome.

Not just ant rif-raf though. We do have standards.

>>24967481
>maybe our butler can tell us.
Remind me to extract his tongue later. He needs to be punished somehow for allowing a hunter into our home.

>>24967470
They get old. It would be such a shame if we let the pretty ones spoil.

>>24965019
>Age Turned: 13

Fuck yes, lets do this.

>>24967485
Agreed. Rif-raf should be purged so as not to sully our presence.

>>24967549
Pretty sure we ended up looking about 7 due to child-vampire consensus.

>>24967559
Let's eradicate the homeless and make necromorph-style horror puppets from their bodies.

They can populate our dungeon and and we can sic on our enemies. Nothing says "you're fucked" like a tidal wave of twisted hobo-flesh.

>>24967485
Agreed. No turning on guests/clients.
However, we should hold tea parties with them, and require "payment" for our "services." A pint or two of blood to speak to us, then the costs can be discussed at the tea party. If our customer cannot pay their dues, then we "repossess" their bodies and turn them into dolls.

I'd like to play a vampire with at least a basic sense of morality. You know, doesn't abuse the slaves and all that. Keep the local villagers loyal for reasons other than fear or mind-fuckery. Let the torch-and-pitchfork mob lynch well-meaning hunters. Trumped by self-preservation, of course, and sometimes we just have to eat some dumb fucker.

>>24967625
>guests/clients
I wanted to have some murder tea parties with random people that we kidnap purely because we like their aesthetics and they would make pretty dolls.

Not a regular happening, but we would gather up a dozen or so, paralyze them to stay in their chair, and have the tea party. One by one the older dolls come in and drag them away to the crafting chambers while the other guests look on in horror.

>>24967669
Moralfag get out.

>>24967485
Exactly what I was saying. We maintain a good reputation, we might not be exactly good, but if we want to accrue favors, allies, and not have kill teams sicced on our neotenous ass we treat our guests and clients well, aid them in what they need help with should they be able to pay the price we name, we might throw creepy tea parties just to fuck with their heads because it's hilarious, but they leave as they came, intact, even if we do not come to an agreement and they reconsider purchasing our services they walk out the front door unharmed.

This isn't about moralfagging, this isn't about wanting to white knight anything. This is about playing smart. We may be damn good at what we do, but there's bigger fish out there, and smaller fish can gang up and fuck us over.

Now anyone who violates hospitality or comes with intent to harm us or take things from us, them we can do whatever horrific things we wish to.

>>24967625
Not all guests or clients would be required to pay to see us, if they're powerful in their own right, represent a group that we don't want to mess with, or anything like that we don't take any. Honestly blood is easy to get, we'd only take it for small favors for small people, unless it's very rare and interesting blood. Knowledge, favors, books, artifacts, magical items, blackmail on others, that's what our prices will usually consist of.

And yes, if someone reneges upon our agreement they're open game. If they simply say "I'm sorry Ms. Markova, the price you have asked for your assistance in this matter is too high. I wish you a pleasant evening and shall seek for aid elsewhere." Then we let them go.

Faces cast and moulded in fine porcelain death masks to preserve their beauty long after the flesh has dessicated.
Their shrivelled, mummified forms shrunken and delicate.
Dressed in fine cloths and adorned with well groomed wigs.

To unknowing observers, they look just like normal dolls, if a bit larger than some.
It is only when the dolls begin to move and draw true attention to themselves do people begin to notice the macabre truth beneath the surface.

We don't understand why people get so creeped out by them. When you live as long as we do, you want reminders of the mortals who meant something to you over the centuries.

>>24967669
I have played that roll too many times at this point. Every once and a while it's nice to play an unrepentant monster that is unshackled by the disparate need to be loved and accepted by a community that she will never really be a part of. Let's not pretend the prey sits on our rung of the food chain for once.

I hope this is set in modern day, or at least when we have electricity, so that we can get a big walk-in style freezer installed in our castle.

>>24967676
This is a much better plan than I'd originally thought. Sorry for doubting you anon.

>>24967684
Maybe morals was the wrong word. Ethics? We uphold our end of the deal, won't stab you in the back, can be trusted, God help you if you fuck us over?

>>24967768
May have been old friends or confidants. Even evil people have friends, people they trust, liked, thought of a interesting to talk to, and may have had access to the best tea leaves we'd ever had.

But we knew they were going to get old, and they would not adapt to the life of a vampire well. So we keep them around as a reminder of the times we shared.

We might be an evil mind-fucking girl with a minimal sense of morality or restraint, but we can still have friends.

And to think you guys almost picked the Not-Little-Girl vampire.

>>24967676
This sounds wonderful!

We will keep an eye out for people that would make beautiful dolls. Every now and again, we 'invite' a few of them over for a tea party.

Yes, yes. Just wonderful.

>>24967704
I could take a fair amount of time to explain my reasoning, but really it's just a feeling of distaste at the level of deference we would commit ourself to in dealing with our food. This isn't about playing smart, at least not until a win condition is introduced, this is about having fun in a fun setting that OP threw together. Why would we ever want to spoil our fin with so much tiptoeing?

There was never a moment's doubt.

>>24967149
Yes, whole groups of people who make direct eye contact with you.
However, at some point you'll start losing people from the edges of your control- you can only maintain so many dominations at once.

If you have someone dominated and focus on them you can make them hallucinate basically whatever you want.

Magic:
With your Eeriness, you can do all the standard vampire transformations (bat/cloud of bats, wolf, mist), be a living shadow, move invisibily and noiselessly, and may choose to radiate passive sanity damage. Minor telekinesis and illusion are second nature to you.

Your Acumen means you're intelligent and perceptive, meaning you're highly unlikely to be ever caught off guard. It also means you know a decent number of rituals and some advanced shadow and blood magic. If you want to cast as an offensive thing, you're best off fighting on a full tank of blood and in a dark area.

As people are talking about animated dolls etc:
You can make nonliving dolls appear animated through applications of your Eeriness- (telekinetically maneuvering them and causing others to hallucinate voices.)
For actual animated dolls, you'd have to use a ritual to make them, either from regular dolls or from something with a brain.

Yes, you can turn people you dislike into toy animals to play with. That's a thing. But it'll require domination and ritual - in other words, personal attention.

>>24967876
We need that hat.

>>24967885
>>24967876
THIS

This is what we look like!

>>24967860
Not all of the people who come to see us will be food, many could be Vampires or other supernaturals, wizards, witches, sorcerers, representatives of dangerous organizations who hold a lot of influence.

We won't be getting that many boring bog-standard average people knocking at our door for our expertise.

And it's not tiptoeing, it's standard hospitality etiquette, I can't really think of anyone that would have more adherence to tradition and etiquette than a vampire.

>>24967888
What about the necroporph style hobo flesh beasts?

>>24967914
You have just rattled off a list of predators. And humans leading mobs of humans. Perhaps we should work to eliminate our competition once this little intruder is dealt with? Hmm?

>>24967936
Actually easier than dolls because they're still flesh.

>>24967936
Seconding this.

Okay. First, as the butler for an update. Depending on his answer, we can decide what to do.

>>24967943
I'd really would rather not garner a reputation as "crazy fucking mind-raping tart kill on sight" with every single potential ally out there. There's a lot of competition out there and only one us, and while we're good, we're damn good at what we do, there's people who are better who I'd rather avoid pissing off.

Can we just rip the knowledge from his head safely? We don't want the intruder hear us making our way toward him...

You're uncertain about the world outside, as you don't know how much time has passed.
(I am not, but you are going to have to figure out what's up on your own. Acumen will help.)

The castle, as befits a true vampiric castle of a vampire of your caliber, does not have one location. Nor does it necessarily have sensible geometry. It exists partially in Japan, partially in Transylvania, and partially in England. Other entrances form and dissipate according to your will and that of the Castle; it has somewhat of a mind of its own.

>>24968080
So perhaps the dickass is trapped in there because he's that much of a boob.

Excellent.

Castlevania intensifying.

Are you planning on making a list of our powers / abilities / rituals / spells?

Us knowing what we can actually do will help keep the quest well oiled and moving.

>>24968030
We know illusions. In fact we're very good at them. And implanting thoughts, I think. Reports of an evil blond little boy a few towns over that keeps showing up in conjunction with 'dissappearances' should prove a decent distraction for the local hunter community while we recover and rebuild.

>>24968080
Given that we're 350 years old and sharp as a tack due to absurd Acumen can we just assume that we probably know whatever languages we need to know.

Do parasols allow us to move around at day under partial sunlight? (Keeps us from combusting?)

>>24968136
Mind magic circumvents most language barriers...

>>24967961

Given that we live in a castle and our name is (unless we get some swing votes) Isabella Katarina Markova, we're probably in Europe.

I vote for the renaissance time period because I think is has a lot of potential.

For starters, we can get an update from the butler.

A parasol will let you move around a city in daylight, so long as you stay in the shadows of buildings. It will generally suck for you, but it won't do permanent damage.

Open field? Yeah, you'll combust.

At all. Just pick a time and plop us there.

>>24968223
Well first we deal with the Hunter, we can use our Vampire Magic to find him, remain unseen, psychologically set him off balance, then dominate him after we've used our Voice to get him to drop his weapons, or something like that.

It would be almost impossible to make this work without being retarded.

A crusades era castle in 18th century Egypt sounds awesome.

>>24968376
Currently yes, but since some anons want a fixed location I suggested old Egypt. We'll see what happens.

>>24968368
>vampire Doctor Who
Fuck off. No

>>24968384
Nah, just convert the castle to a pyramid and our butler to an afterlife serpent dragged back with us due to the curse. Should be fine.

>>24968409
.... he always had SOME control. Sorta.

>>24968420
He always had full control if he wanted it. He just thought introducing as many random elements as possible would make things interesting.

Ugh. This is completely fucked now.

I wish I'd just let this thing fade away instead of trying to jumpstart it with posts.

OP has no clue what he's doing.

>>24968394
>some anons want a fixed location
I don't have a problem with our castle being able to open portals to other countries. Sounds cool.

I don't think anyone minded that, it's just the time travel thing.

>>24968439
Yeah, time travel was kind of dumb, and baseless.

>>24968439
This. I liked having an international castle that's a bit wonky. Fits with our character.

The time travlel us just fucktarded though.

Y'know, I just wrote up a serious post explaining that I just want to play a vampire quest that includes all of urban fantasy, traditional horror, victoriana, and japan, but you know what? I can just fucking make a single setting that involves them all.

So ignore my stupid idea earlier.

Butler explanation incoming.

>>24968437
He had a good start, has a system in place, people are just bitching because they think that just because our castle is magical as all fuck and the 'when' of our doors isn't necessarily consistent that it's going to be a clusterfuck. I somehow doubt we'll be having tea in ancient egypt and then going to a cyberpunk future.

Just give him a chance and see where it goes, don't start bitching before anything has even happened.

>>24968459
> JUST MAKE IT SO THAT DIFFERENT CONTINENTS ARE AT DIFFERENT TECH LEVELS DUMBASS.

>>24968462
See >>24968459
>I just want to play a vampire quest that includes all of urban fantasy, traditional horror, victoriana, and japan, but you know what? I can just fucking make a single setting that involves them all.

This is going to be a gigantic clusterfuck. A monolithic, railway pileup tier clusterfuck.

>>24968439
...and after all the Alucard-chan picks I'm really jonesing for a Drifters' Quest. Much more of a pipe dream than temporal stability though. Besides, we could always just give the castle Rip Van Winkle syndrome and make the time element one-way.

>>24968467
>One continent has fucking bitchin' hovercrafts
>one next to it has hoes. The farming kind. The food farming kind
That actually sounds pretty interesting.

>>24968481
And it will be glorious. Either as an unexpected success, or a flaming mess. Either way, entertaining.

>>24968467
Or just do a series of massive time skips and flashbacks. Doors to memory and decade long naps.

>>24968511
We're only 300.

>>24968517
>we THINK we're only 300

>>24968495
I guess when it implodes then I can just go back to reading my LNs.

I'm just miffed because all the quests I follow have been delayed for quite a bit now (in comparison to their regular run schedule) and this one looked really fun. Then a couple hours in we learn that OP is about to cock this up six ways from Sunday.

>>24968467
This.... This could work.

A world where magic and monsters are real. There are societies where magic is prevalent and technological advancement was nerfed.

Societies where magic was weak so the people relied on technology instead. Some countries had their industrial revolution a thousand years ago. Some had it just decades ago. Some probably never will.

Just like the IRL division between the developed world and 3rd world nations that are still effectively in the iron age just with imported cars and stuff.
Only far more exaggerated because of magic being present.

>>24968517
And after a nap we could be 420 and smuggled into Rome at the height of her power. Another nap, we in 1960s England. We dream as see ourselves out for a Parisian stroll long ago, smelling gun smoke and blood in the streets. Stories don't have to be linear is all I'm saying.

>>24968553
...so, what do you run?

>>24968553
Don't worry, he's not going to mess it up. I have faith.

>>24968574
That's just a line that was broken in order to distract from the lack of decisiveness and creativity in designing the story.

>>24968593
Actually, I doubt there's much of a story at all, going by the lack of a setting and the wildly varying choices we were given as for who put us where.

Either this was all meaningless and we were going to get shuffled somewhere anyway or OP is going to pull everything out of his ass as we go with no planning.

A few people seem convinced this is going to crash and burn. Can we give it a chance, please.

That stuff with our doll collection and tea parties was fucking gold! I really want to see that happen.

I've seen good quests die because no one bothered or just shit-posted them to death and I've seen shit quests thrive because people gave life to the story and saved it.

>>24968631
Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, OP might be pretty good at that sort of thing.

>>24968077
You concentrate a moment, and everything the butler knows is now known to you.

As his memories pour into your mind, your own return as well…

A man asked you to tea.

He paid the tithe.

He poisoned the tea with holy water.

You caught it, of course.

But it distracted you long enough for him to throw holy magic and crossbow bolts at you.

Of course, you blocked the crossbow bolts and shielded yourself form the light.

But meanwhile, he was burning your dolls…

And while you were shielding them from the fire he'd kindled, he somehow snuck in under your guard and hit you with a massive fucking hammer.

He's faster than he looks, and he's not an idiot. He knows not to look you in the eyes.

But he made a massive mistake when he went for your dolls.

As for the butler? He says you were only out a few hours. You have him specifically to revive you. He knows very little of what happened in the castle upstairs- he's essentially a personal servant for your sanctum, dedicated to reviving you when necessary. Shame your vintages of blood are running low at the moment...

But he does know the current state of the castle portals.

>>24968661
The doors that are currently open are to:

Mark, in Grand Victoria, the land of the Ever-Shining Sun. Fields fleets of airships that cross oceans to many other lands, trading for spices, silks and tea. Watched over carefully by inquisitors both official and unofficial, carefully guiding the light of the Empress to where it is needed most. Dangerous political waters for a known vampire, but extremely profitable if played right.

An abandoned castle in Ulvenwald, the land of bountiful forests. Dark and foreboding in its rocky crags and forgotten groves, a perfect place for a vampire who doesn't want visitors to live. Other, stranger creatures are rumored to live in the woods as well, and the villagers give sacrifice to pagan gods to keep away the things in the dark.

Shadescast, the Vampire City. The true location of the castle, passed down through vampire sires. An eternally-dark city hidden in the depths of the earth, where vampire clans strive for dominance and the purity of your blood is everything. Founded by a direct child of Dracula- but the both that first vampire and his direct children have been gone for centuries. Some say he is dead. Few believe it.

>>24968685
So this dickass made it all the way into Shadeclast and hit us with a hammer after burning our dolls.

How the fuck is he still alive. Are all the vamps here incompetent? Apathetic?

Perhaps he's a hitman. Well fuck

>>24968661
>But he does know the current state of the castle portals.
[groans externally]

>>24968724
Actually, he would most likely be from Ulvenwald.

>>24968661
>he was burning your dolls…
His death will be slow and creative.

Let's get started, turn invisible. Moving unseen and unheard, go upstairs and figure our what's happening.

If the dicks still here looting our home....

If he's gone already, we'll know more once we've had a look around and got our bearings.

>>24968685
Good stuff to know. But first we have an unwelcome intruder who ought to be taken care of.

Turn on our silent movement and being difficult to see. Head into the castle proper and determine his location, he will not live through today.

Once we have his location we can get creative, I like causing a lot of san damage.

Are we good enough to mindfuck other vampires?

How populous is Shadeclast?

>>24968766
I'm not the OP, but my guess would be that it depends on the vampire.

>>24968724
>So this dickass made it all the way into Shadeclast and hit us with a hammer

He came as a guest and paid the tithe to enter.

Then the dick turned on his host as we offered him tea!

Such savagery. No respect for manors and customs.

Rolled 42

>>24968751

You shift your form, easily slipping beneath the door as a shadow and creeping along the floor of the familiar hallways of the Castle.

You nudge the Castle, and for once it seems like it's in a helpful mood. You find the intruder after two right hand turns that inexplicably place you on a third-story hallway, the stained-glass windows looking out over a darkened forest.

The hunter is smashing them.

You specially warded them so that the stained glass would protect from the sun.

Nothing you can do to this... person... will be enough.

>>24968791
Despite your rage, you manage to prevent yourself from immediately attacking the damned fool.

That would spoil all the fun.

What will you do...?

>>24968804
Telekinetic sleeper hold. Knock this fucker out and then its time for the teaparty.

And he will be the first member of the hoboflesh.

>>24968751
>he will not live through today.
No. He will live a long life yet.

With knowledge of blood magic, I bet we could keep him alive for years.

He burned our dolls. Our beautiful collection. Our memories. Some of them had been with us for centuries, we will never see their faces again.

He will no die a quick death.

>>24968804
Time for the mindfuckery to begin.

Have him start hearing giggling children in the edge of his hearing, seeing things our of the corner of his eye, shadows he sees form into monstrous images before disappearing in the blink of an eye, have a woman's voice tell him that he failed, that he failed and he couldn't protect anyone. Have any paintings in the room watch him and move subtly. If possible make him feel chills down the back of his spine and creepy-crawly sensations.

Make sure to stay hidden during this and behind cover if possible. Let's break this fuck.

>>24968804
>>24968791
Spooky magics to make the castle come alive around him.
