Vampires

“Masters of shadow, with an unending hunger. Cunning and lethality, a terrible concotion with undeath.”

On RP Acquired Races

Afflictions are ‘Application Only’.

Applicants will be asked various questions after the initial form down below.

As an afflicted person, it is not guaranteed that you will live long. You are playing a risky curse, you will need to be cautious and roleplay accordingly to ensure you survive relatively well.

The general information is on their respective pages, yet accepted applicants will get extra info and tips on their afflicted to avoid being meta-gamed by malicious individuals. As always metagaming, in general, will be heavily punished.

The main goal here is to drive RP with a healthy amount of conflict instead of of the afflictions as just being mechanically enhanced, and PvP monkeys.

If you discover unbalanced exploits that heavily flavors your build, we ask that you open a ticket referencing the ability or exploit so we can fix it before it becomes a problem. If players are caught with proof, knowingly using unbalanced means to ‘bully’ or exploit their strength in a dishonorable way, it will result in removal from the afflicted table.

Have fun with it, be open-minded about your stories interweaving with others, and as always, stay awesome. Let’s see where this goes OG!

Vampire

Those who gained their immortal undead life through birth, bites, or some magical curse are stronger, faster, and have special abilities.  Are you to be a noble, Aspiring lord to be, or just a bum living forever?  Enjoy fine things and engage in decadent behavior.  Bathe in the crimson:  Live for and by it. 

Vampires can be slain like any other character with an approved PK ticket. They do not need to be in their coffin, that is just another way to go about it.
