Welcome to Blank City Nowhere, the tabletop anthology podcast with many games, many
stories in one weird world. As always, I'm your host in GM,
Ryan Stevens. My pronouns are he and they, and joining you today is
Corey Drennan. Hi. I am Corey Drennan, and my pronouns are she,
her, And that's it. We're doing something a little different for season
two of Blank City. We've are so already began production or pre production on
season three, which is going to be sort of similar to season one,
and that we'll be playing lots of different games in the same setting that's currently
in the cooker in the crock pot, but right now serving up hot and
fresh on the line. This is season two where we are playing thousand year
Old Vampire by Tim Hutchings, and we are playing that one person at a
time. So a thousand year Old Vampire is a solo TTRPG is a journaling
game where you play as a singular, titular thousand year old vampire, although
exactly how old our vampires remains to be seen, and we are gonna pass
it down player by player across the generations in a bit of an experimental second
season for us. This is the season where Blank City goes jazz. This
is we're really gonna just get loose with it and get weird with it on
this one. And Corey is our first vampire, that's right. And I
was just gonna make a joke about scanning. Let's go, yeah, let's
hear it. Give me your best. We're just gonna scat. What's the
joke. That's good? Season beautiful? So yes, So to play this
game, you can play this by yourself listener, but we're going to sort
of extrapolate it out to two people. So it's uh, you know,
more of a conversation, less of a monologue. Uh. And the goodness
is for a general overview of the game, I have the whole cast ready
to join us, just for this bit. Thousand year Old Vampire is a
lonely solo role playing game in which you chronicle the unlife of a vampire over
the many centuries of their existence, beginning with the loss of mortality and ending
with their inevitable destruction. This vampire will surprise you as they do things that
are unexpected, unpleasant, and sometimes tragic, making gut churning decisions, performing
irreconcilable acts and resolving difficult narrative threads or at This game is about, as
you explore you are the vampire's human failings, villainous acts, and surprising victories.
Game mechanics are simple and intuitive. Play progresses semi randomly through the prompts
section of this book. Answer prompts to learn about your vampires wants and needs,
to learn what challenges they face, and to chart their decline into senescence.
Build up a character record of memories, and then lose them to the
inexorable crush of time. See everyone you've loved and hated grow old and die,
then turned to dust. The vampire whose chronicles you will record in this
game is represented by five different traits, memories, skills, resources, characters,
and marks. Almost every time you receive a prompt, one of your
traits will be modified. Memories and experiences are important moments that have shaped your
vampire. Crystallized in writing. They make up the core of the vampire's self,
the things they know and care about. Skills describe the keep and characteristics
of your vampire. They indicate what your vampire can do and what they might
do. Resources are assets or structures that are useful to your vampire or items
that they value. Characters are the people with whom your vampire has a relationship.
A mark is a visible indication of your vampire's undying state, or any
other thing that sets them apart from mortal people. An ever bleeding wound on
the throat, eyes that are blank and white, a trailing specter, a
ferocious scar, a hollow abdomen full of rats. A mark is something your
vampire carries for their entire existence. This game is about the grind of centuries.
Your vampire will lose their very memories to the passage of years and must
pursue continuous reinvention to keep up with the evolution of society around them. Time
is very loose, so imagine its progression as you like. Think about historical
events and work them in when it feels right. World wars and political upheavals
are hugely important events, even for vampires. Thanks everyone, All right,
back to just me and Corey. So, yeah, A thousand about Vampire
is to use the words that the Hutchings uses in the Look a Lonely Solo
role playing game, which I think is very fun. To put that in
our heads first and foremost, that this is going to be some loneliness.
This is gonna be some longing. I think fans of our Good Society game
will find much to enjoy here as well. Yes, yeah, so let's
see. So to begin, we will be just Corey is going to be
responsible for, you know, creating the initial vampire, and then subsequent players
will be doing more of the prompts that are used to like brainstorm the things
that happen to him, her or them across their long life. But first
thing, first, Corey, Let's make your vampire. Yes, okay,
so art by imagining a person in the distant past. The examples given are
a Roman emperor, a Mesopotamian midwife, a French knight, and that person
will be our vampire. So that is the first thing. I guess.
Start with a memory, with one experience that encapsulates your history. So I
guess what time periods are you thinking? Yeah, so I wrote down a
little blurb, but it's all super flexible because I didn't know how far back
we want to go, because I depending on like how far forward the rest
of the cast goes, Like should I set it way back in like the
fifteenth century? But I was thinking I based it off of the example sentence
they gave, and then I just kind of like filled in my own stuff.
So I was thinking, I am Videlia Sharp, daughter of the well
to do Sharp family, and my father recently made our fortune from weapon manufacturing
during the war, and we can kind of place it anywhere, depending on
like what war we want to put it around. My initial idea is to
put it in the late nineteenth century, because I want my mom to be
a bimbo, okay, and I want her to be in the late nineteenth
century. A lot of women were dying of arsenic poisoning because they were putting
this green dye in their clothes, and so that's the only tether that I
kind of had to nineteenth century. But I feel like that might be too
far forward and time, since we have a big cast in front of me
too. Guys. Yeah, I would push back in request maybe a bit
earlier, maybe one or two hundred years a bit for the back. I'm
sure bimbos are a historical constant. You can give your mom that whenever.
Shh. Yeah, that's all that's important. The thread of just I want
her to be dumb and dying of something because she is dumb, so if
we can just find different way to weave that in it can we could say
it can still be arsenic or something. Maybe the local person sold her this
thing and said, like it makes you youthful or whatever. Your mom was
like the one who invented the trend of like, yeah, uh, fashionably
poisoning yourself with arsenic Yeah, yeah, yeah, but it's such a vibrant
greenist. Yes, And I put that she's recently come out to society.
Uh, but I was gonna have my age at eighteen, so it's not
weird to just kind of get that off of the table. And then like
with this backstory stuff, it kind of weaves in the other stuff that they
ask because they want three relationships as well. And so I already have mother
and father, And then I was thinking a little sister named Aubergine. Okay,
we have vitalia and opa gene. Sure, yeah, a very healthy
family, all the vegetables, uh huh. And I want her to be
like much younger, like ten or so years younger, so she's like seven
or eight years old. And for like a relationship, they ask for like
a little description. I just put I am like a mother to her,
because our mom is kind of a bimbo. Nice. Uh, what descriptions
do you have for your mother and father? Is mother just bimbo dying of
insert Yeah? I have my mother, Yeah, I have my mother is
a bimbo and dying of arsenic we can just say and dying from arsenic arsenic
die from her clothing, and we'll just say she was early on that.
The only thing I have about my father is he made a fortune. Are
were fortune from weapon manufacturing during the war. So that's the thing that is
interesting to me in regards to like when we're setting it, because like which
war it is can tell us what like era is. If nineteenth century,
you know a lot of stuff broke down in the eighteen hundreds of eighteenth century,
you have the Revolutionary War, you have the French Revolution, you have
any other number of them. You could go as far back as the Crusades
if you wanted to. I'm not saying we have to, but that's like
a good back bumper is the Crusades. Let's let's go for the seventeenth century.
So sometime into sixteen hundreds, what what war? Yeah? And sixteen
hundreds, Yeah, the Eighty Years War, which is most of it,
Well, actually that was from fifteen sixty eight to sixteen forty eight, so
yes, the first half of it and then the Thirty Years War. Get
this, The Thirty Years of War also ended in sixteen forty eight. Begin
sixteen eighteen. What nations? Let me see they're not it's just okay.
List of wars Encyclopedia Britannica. Either of those sound good to me because the
Sharp family can have made their fortune off of both. We sold for both
wars. The Eighty Years War was between the Netherlands and Spain, if that
does anything for you. The Thirty Years War was between good Lord, many
people, many factions, sort of a pro World War One. Yeah,
the Austria, Denmark, detro Public, France, the Holy Roland Empire.
We can do Yeah, we can do any of any of the We can
just pick one and do one. I just will talk in a Southern I
just want to use a blue blood accent. Sure, Yeah, you could
do the English Civil Wars, of which the fact that's plural is fun.
Yeah, that's sixteen forty two to fifty one. I was also practicing my
accent and I kind of dipped into Transatlantic a little bit, So that's sure.
Well who does what they really sounded like back then? You know,
the closest thing to like old English is current like Louisiana. Yeah so yeah,
so but we think England. Yeah yeah, great, so seventeenth century
England? Yep? Boyfect is that sharp with an E on the Yeah?
Yeah, I was gonna smell like that. I was like, I'll let
Corey make that decision. And that's off. But good. Okay, So
we have your name, this is your first memory? Is this like life
background? And we have these three people? Mm hmm. These characters can
it should be very important, but they will not be around for long.
So I read that. Okay, before do I have to what comes first?
The memories or the skills and the resources? The So your first uh
memory is this one with your family? It only has one like experience.
Other memories take multiple experiences, but this one is just one and that's your
family. So next comes skills. Okay. So for a memory with my
family, I'm just spitball in here. We can say, uh, she
her her dad, UH made obstacle courses us out of uh spare spare spare
gun parts, and my sister and I are racing to the yard. I
think we can. We can add that later, because you're about to make
three more experiences after we make these skills. The first memory is literally the
example is like, I am Henry, son of John. Yeah, but
say that my father made obstacle courses that have gun parts. We'll get there
for sure. Okay, I'm just gonna gone obstacle course. You there,
my darling, dasts come to the backyard. I've made the most delightful contraption.
Okay, I'm trying to imagine the like steampunk Chuck E Cheese like uh
playplace creation that he could have cobbled together here. Yes, I was talking
about those earlier and how McDonald's really messed up by getting rid of those.
I know, right, where are kids supposed to go to hang out anymore?
That's why they're always on the internet. It's because McDonald's doesn't have the
playplace anymore. With this first memory, uh, I am by Delia Sharp,
daughter of the well to do Sharp family. I've recently come out to
society. My mother is bimbo blah blah blah or manifest Okay, great,
Okay, so we're good. Yeah, So give your vampire to be three
skills fitting for their lot in life, and three resources they obtained while they
were mortal. So for like the night examly be like jousting or sword play
or whatever. So what is what was Midelia good at or gifted at outside
of vampiring? Okay, so I have two for each right now, so
maybe we can come up with a third. So for skills, And I
wasn't sure how to phrase this, I like archetypal wife because she was kind
of like she's just come out to society, so I feel like her mom
would have put her in like these classes. So like like, well,
I didn't want to like list sewing and educated and painting and place instruments.
You know how they all used to have to have them do that. So
but just like but in like a goods and services way, like an object
way. Yeah, well there's gonna be a there's definitely a term for that
that's escaping me. It's like I think they teach you at charm school,
like yeah, oh no, uh, wutant skills, wutant skills, manner
manners. Well, she's well mannered, well mannered? Well, say yeah,
and that's what that means. Okay, And then the second skill I
put is can run fast. Okay, and then a third skill maybe I
should I'm trying to she can run fast. She knows she can in a
five second forty yard dash five seconds. She's so fast. It's from all
those obstacle courses in heels no less. Yeah, okay, so she has
that. She didn't do that? Uh and uh, I'll put well connected?
Is that a skill that can be Yeah? The thing about it is
like I worry that that's not gonna last long as you continue to grow up
as a vampire and dies. Yeah right, you're right. But if we
want to spend it as like she's good at getting connected, like she is
like a socially at a vampire. Yeah, and she kind of has the
four to one one on the social situation. Okay, great, So who
she's connected to can change, but she is good at doing that. That
that makes more sense to me. Great. Cool. Now resources, what
do we got? Okay? I put money? Okay, big money,
big mone we got money. I like how they put it? Can be
hold on, let me look at these examples. It can be a knife
or a fleet of warships, so it can really be anything. So arms
dealer, I put warehouse of guns, warehouse, a warehouse of guns.
We got to keep them somewhere, sure, warehouse of guns. Money.
And then third resource, uh, I'll just put uh, I'll put really
nice carriage. Okay, sure it's so nice, but she, I mean,
she don't really need it, she's so fast. Great, Okay,
so those are your three resources. Okay. Now now we create fe more
experiences, with one experience each being entered into a separate memory. So again
these are going to be like little seedlings of memories with their own experience.
So other memories and experiences will have to have more under them, but we're
just one for each of Each of these experiences should combine two of your vampires
traits. So great, your ventire vampire has a long ship and has like
a Viking character. Then it's something about the two of those. So yeah,
so this is like tie together the things you have. What are your
memories of your money Darling's sister. Great, so we have one with the
obstacle course already, and then a second one should probably be something about society.
Uh uh uh lessons. Ah, I have uh a memory of of
this is kind of related to the person one. I have a memory of
being timed to see how fast I I was gonna say, build a fire,
but that's not it of how fast I could uh needle point something.
This like class of women was timed to see who could complete embroidery embroidery of
something the fastest. Okay, what was the beginning of that? Like,
how does the memory begin? I'm sitting in uh my manners class. It
being timed on how fast, how quickly I can so I can complete this
embroidery piece, because that's what makes a good wife. How did you do?
Did you win? I'm just gonna no, she did really badly and
her fingers, her fingers were all bloody and they got blood all over the
on the canvas. Okay, that's a memory of right there. Okay,
so two more like that? Can I request one that involves please? Yeah?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I wanted to do one with her.
Let's see, I'm gonna I'm gonna throw some stuff out, but it's just
to generate ideas. Taught her how to hold a gun decorating something at like
I say that, I'm really interested in you teaching your six or seven year
old sister how to hold like like a rifle, like a pistol, like
what maybe like a maybe maybe, like our dad was having us, uh
test out children's guns, this new line of children's for the kids, test
it for us. Yeah, so we're doing target practice in our backyard.
I was sixteen, she was six. This was before I don't know if
labor laws would have stopped children holy guns, but it certainly is certainly an
adjacent issue. Memory, a fond memory. Yeah, what's the what's your
next memory, your last precursor memory, last precursor memory. She was in
church with her family and she was thinking to herself. She as soon as
everybody, the whole church was silent in prayer, and she had an unholy
thought. She was the unholy she she thought she she saw she saw someone,
she saw like another woman, like stretch or something, and she was
like, oh, what a beautiful neck. And then as soon as she
uh thought that, the cross fell on the top of the church. We've
all been there. We've all been there. A nice nod to Fleabag season
two. It's a good show. What man imagine if at the end of
Fleabag it turned out that she was a vampire? What a twist that would
have been? What a twist the only thing that could have improved that show.
Is she Protestant or Catholic? I feel like, what's historically accurate?
Probably Catholic? Right, well, this would have been after entry the eighth
like wrecked shop. So so really anything okay she is, Oh, she's
there's super Catholic. That's the second one that I've rolled. Okay, great
Catholic. You've ruled a critical Catholic. Great, okay. Cool. So
these are your memories in manners class. You were timed on the speed and
precision of your embroidery. You do not perform up to standard, and you
bled all over the material in doing so. Second or third memory you remember
doing target practice and teaching your six year old sister how to shoot guns in
the back. And your final memory, currently in church during prayer, you
notice the attractive neck of someone of another lady in the church. At the
moment you thought this, the cross at the head of the church fell.
How'd you feel about that? Was that guilty? Was it like scandalous?
Were you emboldened? Not emboldened? She's probably like, uh, she's probably
like startled, And then kind of like a kid who's been caught stealing from
the cookie jar, but not like quite you know, like, oh that
was really weird, wasn't it. It's almost crazy like that. God,
I can't believe. Boy, I'm glad that's not my fault, thinking it's
your fault. Yeah, we've all been there, maybe not that exact scenario,
but you know that getting caught. Okay, great, cool, So
we have those, we have these memories and experience is great. Okay,
Now we have the last thing. Create an immortal. This is the creature
that gifted or cursed you with vampire is a and then we'll create in a
mark and an experience that explain how your vampire became a creature of the night.
So a mark is like the thing that's different from you about you that
shows you're a vampire. It doesn't have to be the classic like I got
fangs, or I got pale skin or I got sparkly skinned. You know,
we can be weird with it. But yeah, and then also I
think of like what's your who turned you? And like what's their deal?
His name is count von Gatorade sponsored deal. He's a he's got electrolytes,
he's a business partner, he's a he's a he's a tycoons a gatorade.
He Uh, he's a he's a traveling salesman and uh he had a business
meeting with my father. Uh and uh uh he asked me if I wanted
to sample his product. I like getting taken in by like a huckster on
the crossroads. Yeah, h do you really want to name him? I'm
only gonna ask once, so it'll be easy for you to double down.
Do you want to name him count on Gatorade? I almost wanted to name
my vampire count vond Gatorade, Okay, and I decided that that was too
much. So he's gonna be our guy, A sort of fun alias he
had h I will say, I don't think anyone is going to think it's
as funny as I do. But okay, that's the power of going first.
That's the power of going first. And I'm the player having fun and
that's what it's all about. Okay, So now I'm doing I turn on
the vampire. I get to pick the movie watching gatorade. Maybe people can
remember his name differently. Yeah, you know, it can be count von
power Adell. We'll play with that with whoever goes second. Okay, So
Mark is Mark the different from like vampire bite. Yeah, that's the well,
that's the question is like, so for the example they give is like
Baron Holm Mueller, an Australian noble in a vampire who stole the deed to
my land. The corse Monding experience is I duel the baron across the roof
of the abbey. He near. He cuts my hat off my shoulders,
but I do not die, which leads to the mark my neck is permanently
broken. I wear tight scars and walk slowly to maintain my dignity. So
these are all sort of like so mortal count on gatorade, let's do the
experience is like, uh, he was like a business associate of your dad.
Is that right? Yeah, he's a traveling salesman. He had a
position for the Sharp family and what did he do to how did he get
you to turn into a vampire? So how are we? How are we?
There's so many different Yeah, before you like the magic nitty gritty,
I guess the question is like, did he like, was it like a
seduction? Did he just like like ask if he wanted to see some wares
or was it were you like, hey, something's up with you? Make
me a vampire. Let's say that this was the same Sunday that the cross
fell in the church. Busy day. It was a busy day, and
I I say something like I don't know, I just feel like maybe I
just don't like fit in. And and let's say that count voon gatorade.
Every time he goes to he picks one to change and then he just kind
of like skips along his way and he's like this one. He's like,
that's very quirky of you. So did he like tell you you were special
or something? Yeah, what's the memory here? It was so I'm not
gonna says it wasn't like a sexual seduction, but it was like a seduction
of like, oh, I understand, and yeah, we don't need to
get into like the nitty gritty of that aspect of it. Yeah, And
the question is like, however he turns you, whether it is a bite
or I don't know, you drink the potion and now you're a vampire or
you know, we can define it if you want. The thing that we
mainly have to define is like what when a person in like one hundred years
looks at you, what are they going to notice? Or like if they
get the chance to notice this thing, they'll know you're a vampire or at
least not human. Okay, I want to think about I want to pull
it from the way that I was changed. So sure, I'll say we'll
do a vampire diaries way of you have to drink the blood and then be
killed, because I was thinking he gives it to me in a beverage because
he's a beverage salesman, and then it's just how did I die. Let's
say he shot me in the face and I I have like it. It
kind of looks like it's either like a really big like maybe it doesn't not
really big, but like a mole or like a freckle, but it looks
it looks kind of weird. I like it being something on the face.
I guess the question is if he turned you, why would he also then
shoot you immediately or did that come later or like under what what's the circumstances
there? Because I wanted to be the In order to be a vampire,
you have to drink their blood and then you have to die with vampire blood
and your system. Okay, that's an important step. Okay, Okay,
then I'm on board. If it's like if it's like this is the process,
it's a lot more labor intensive than you might have been told. Yeah,
but yeah, I like that it's almost and this is very like you
know, this is a pitch. You don't have to like this or not.
But I if it's this like like scarring or this like like like webbing
of veins on like the side of your face, like have to wear like
a scar you have to wear like a like a sixteenth century version of like
the face masks that we've had been wearing for the past few years. Like
you're like scarves are like artful you're blocking it with a fan and fascinator or
like something. Yes, I love that. Okay, so mark artful scarring
on the which side of the face do you want it to be? I've
been doing it on my right side, so we'll just do the right side.
And you said it like in this like weird it kind of like shows
my veins. I love that. That's so cool and can it be like
again, this is maybe detail that is not relevant and may never come up
again. But if it's like the veins are like like there's a texture to
it, like there's a topography like the veins are raised, like the texture
on a globe. I was literally going to say a texture on a globe.
Yeah, yeah, class globe face. But just a little bit,
yeah, just just a little bit. I can still get by day to
day. Mostly people are just like what the fuck happened to you if they
see it? But I like that it is something you have to constantly be
like covering. And also it's a pain in the ass because every new era
you have to come up with a new reason why you're hiding it. Yeah,
it's like it's not gonna be fascinators in fashion forever. And like if
they are alive today, then the past three years have been a blessing for
this vampire. Yeah. But like as soon as people are like trying to
take the masks off, they were like, ah, fucking I just got
used to this. Yeah, Or like if someone sees it, they'll be
like, oh my god, was that like an octopus? And you're like,
no, but that's a really good idea. I'm going to use that.
Yeah, they like write it down for later, Like they learn about
jellyfish and they're like that's great, I'm gonna use this. Yeah, jellyfish
got me real bad. But yeah, I like that. It's not that
it is onerous to have to keep coming up with excuses why you weren't covering
half of your face? Man? Just uh an eternity of new choice.
Yeah, and also like every like few years being like, okay, is
it is now the time? Do I need to go ahead and get a
jump on it? Or like how long can you ride each alibi out?
I guess that's a vampire thing in general, Like how long until I like?
Why? How how long until it's suspicious that I'm still eighteen? Yeah,
and it'll be interesting to see if somebody uh goes into like male identifying,
Like can vampires grow beards? Oh that's a good question. I don't
know, Like or can they they could? If they couldn't grow, they
could get like face. Yeah, yeah that's easy. But yeah, that
is like a thing they have to reckon with. Maybe she'll join the circus
for a time and become bearded lady, have some fun with it. Yeah,
Okay, so we have your vampire. You have three skills which are
to review, Krey. What are your three skills? My three skills are
well mannered, I can run really fast, and I have the ability to
be well connected everywhere and go perfect. What are your three resources? We're
a house of guns, money, and a really cool carriage. Great,
what is so the thing? The rules say at least three mortals? Are
there any other mortals you would like to? You know, we could create
one or two more if you're interested in having other people you know such you,
because all of my mortals are my relatives right now. It could be,
Uh, it could be who's that woman I saw on the church?
Let's use it. Oh, yeah, who's the lady you are crushing on
the day you got vampired? Yeah, the woman I was crushing on that
is Krem de Violetta. All right, so first name Krem. We can
change that. I don't know, that's a licurt. Oh how about let
me go over to a Google doc memory four. Uh, if I want
to do, we'll do like Lilay. She's French lays why I'm like stuck
on these like not garbage in PC names. But I wanted to make her
last name time stamp stamp. Well, hold on, let me do English
to French translation. It would be like something, yeah, I don't like
this word to give you, which literally means time stamp, but it's bad
to say if I space out time stamp doesn't give me anything different. No,
yeah, I think hours like we'll just put lay sole. Okay,
I'm misspelled. My four years of high school French? Where's it gone?
How old is? How old is she? Do you think, oh,
she's a little bit older, like let's say she's uh, she's one and
twenty and recently married, no kids? Well the only recently got married,
so yeah, great? And anyone else you want to have around or is
this a good group of four? Is there anyone you think that we should
throw in? I don't think so. I think that these all makes sense.
Yeah, including the lady you saw that's like a core memory. I
guess my question is did you know of her before that day? And you
just like noticed her? Oh yeah, figure out? Okay, I knew
I knew of lil okay, and then you just got caught up your mind
wandering, wandering your thoughts one time he did. Okay, great, okay,
cool. So I think we have everything we need. This is the
beginning of our cool thousand year old vampire. I think it's good. I
think we're ready to begin solid So I think hm hmmm, we've been going
for forty minutes, so we'll do one prompt okay, for free, so
you can get the ball rolling and then we'll see where we go. So
starting a prompt one, we're gonna roll a D ten and a D six.
Okay, subtract the D six from the D ten some good dice fling.
Yeah, first roll of season two, Corey is you're gonna lift the
pitch double one. Wait, what happens if I get one in the six?
We just do the first one because we can't go back, right,
so we just do prompt number one. Okay. Well, it's a one
and a four, so which is what's on the D six? The D
six is a four and the detwi is one, so it's negative. You're
free, so we can't do that, so we'll just do prompt number one.
Okay. In your blood hunger, you destroy someone close to you,
kill a mortal character. Oh it's one gene okay, so okay, well
there are options here, So before we lock into killing your child's sister,
which I do like, but just in the interest of transparency, you are
overcome by panic and mall someone close to you, accidentally turning them to a
monster like yourself. I'm yeah. Convert a beloved mortal character into an enemy
immortal. Take the skill ashamed. And then our final choice. You are
captured enslaved by a wicked and powerful supernatural entity. Create an immortal character.
How do you eventually escape their servitude? To check a skill and take the
skill humans are cattle. Strike out all, strike out all mortal characters as
one hundred years have passed. Take a resource you have used for evil while
in service to your former master. So we have two heart inching ones and
then one that just torches most of the work we did today. Okay,
I the choice to you. I just got to the page, so I'm
going to read over these again. So I kill someone close to me and
turn them into a monster like yourself. So if I kill her, she
would become my enemy, and then I take the skill a shamed. Let's
either you kill her or you turn her into a monster like yourself. Oh
okay, separate. So these are choice. Oh okay, okay, okay,
okay, okay. So do you want to be bloodthirsty or ashamed or
lose one hundred years? Okay? Uh and then I'm sorry. The second
one your captain is said by wicked and powerful character. How did you escape
it? Oh? Yeah, lose one hundred years just completely. Yeah,
you just have that. It would be the funniest one. Fu you to
everyone else play. I'm not, but I like, I'm gonna go with
what's more narratively understandable. Cool. So I have a bit of decision paralysis
in tabletop games, so I've taken to like rolling a D six. Nice.
So the Harvey did roach to decision making, it looks really well for
him. Yeah, so I'm gonna say, Wow, which is the better
one? I'm gonna say four or higher she's dead, three or lower she's
my enemy. But it's absolutely your sister, I stand this. It's a
four A mall her Okay. So we're going with the second one. You
are overcome by panic and mall so when close to you turning into a monster
like yourself. Okay, so let's make it so new skill ashamed ashamed,
I'm mall all bargine really put mall wow, powerful bird unrecognizable. So that's
the question. It's like, so when it says mal, there's a lot
of ambiguity there. It also says overcome by panic, So it's not like
it's not the first prompt where it's blood hunger. Like, it's not like
you necessarily tried to like drink her, but it is like you got panicked
and did just fuck her up real bad. So what did you do?
Okay, So with this prompt, am I like just not I don't think
she I don't. I don't think Videlia would would drink her sisters. But
okay, so I I panic you were out, like you haven't out of
Like the good news is you didn't try to kill her. You just accidentally
turned her in. So it could be the like the vampire thing of like
you accidentally injure her and then just save her life. You turn her into
a vampire. That's classic vampire fiction stuff. It's like you don't have to
be this Like you knock her down the stairs and she breaks her neck and
you're like yeah shit, and then you turn her into a vampire. Uh
okay, So just going to make sure I got this right. I maul
her and I turn her into a vampire. Yeah, okay. So let's
say that she catches me drinking someone else's blood, but I don't know it's
her, So I like, I I just like automatically like cut her carotid
artery, and then I realized it's her, and I'm like fuck. And
then I like make sure she drinks my blood really quickly because I'm panicking.
And then I'm like, oh, I didn't even think about the fact that
she's immortal now too, and she's only eight. Hold on, let me
look up the strike through. She caught you drinking blood m hmm, like
feeding off of like someone in like the village or whatever. You panicked,
killed her and then brought her back to the Vampire in a panic. Yeah.
Whoops, whoops, classic this ever happened to you? Seinfeld transition music
please? Oh boy? Okay, yeah, and yeah that is so we'll
see you know when and how that comes up. But the good newses Aubergine
can stick around. That's good. She's an enemy now. Yeah, she's
mad at you for this present for it. Yeah, I still love her.
Hey. Also, she's stuck as an eight year old forever, so
that's gonna sucks. That's some real interview with the Vampire ship. Yeah,
