WuHanXianShi14 0 Share Posted October 10, 2015 This is creative, and it's clear a lot of work was put into this. But unfortunately as far as I know the LT is never going to accept vampires or werewolves, though I could be wrong.Don't get discouraged though, the media team could use someone like you, you should consider applying.

AGiantPie 3169 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Whilst some on LotC are loathe to the idea of vampires, I think vampires could be a reasonable addition if they were done right. In my mind, though, that would be something more akin to a curse bestowed upon someone by Ikuras. It's a mind-altering curse that makes someone feel the need to drink blood or else go insane. It could work through descendant blood, animal blood, or perhaps both (mexican people cheering). I think what is paramount, though, is to avoid giving vampires bullshit superpowers, and making it more of an actual curse and detriment and not a boon in any way. Granted, frosties do get frost magic, and they're kind of like female vampires, but they're also much easier to spot. That's my 2 cents at least.

Balorien 54 Author Share Posted October 10, 2015 If any of you played with casltevania lord of shadows 1-2 or watched Hellsing, than you know how i imagine vampires.I hope, I will be allowed to play a vampire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reckless Banzai Screamer 11993 Share Posted October 10, 2015 That's a nice shady tale you have there.I wouldn't mind doing vampire slaying. I've done it on another role play medium back in the day and had a blast. See if someone can help you assimilate this with already existing lore.

herculean_wud 3656 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) I like the idea...But I have a feeling that there'll be too many people wishing to play as a vampire; Just take a look at the amount of necroshites and edgies already on the server.

Wrynn 1347 Share Posted October 10, 2015 The idea is rather nice, however LOTC already has something along the lines of a vampire, it's called the Imp Parastie,: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soo it will be a hard job to become a vampire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on you.If you become a vampire your not evil, nor good. You decide that to. You will be yourself in mind, body, and soul. You just lose your race and become a creature which is much more and much less than other races. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your Favorite Impure 734 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Oh, I understand. I just believe since a lore similar to vampires is already accepted, LMs may not accept this. Not saying it's not good or anything, just speculation c: Then again, I could totally be wrong. Good luck in your endeavor! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catostrophy 111 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) As a roleplaying server that accommodates just about every popular fantasy trope (not a negative point, mind), players always want to play something familiar-be it magical elves, lords and knights, beer-swilling dwarves or evil necromancers. A vampire inspires a very specific image that tends to be homogenous across most fantasy settings. Drink blood, hate sunlight, be immortal, the dark and twisted children of the twilight etc. This image comes from the name vampire rather than what it does. You don't gain that image from a parasite. A traditional vampire-type creature would be well suited in LotC.Perhaps not this one, though. Edited October 10, 2015 by Catostrophy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
