But what do the classes do. Though Death Servitors sound really fucking awesome.

[Ross Vernal]

Lust: Lust vampires are so named for their power: they appear capable of inflaming passion, inspiring love and devotion, addicting people to its effects, and even shaping people into one another's ideal lover. They are unusually capable at 'rolling' their victims, and feed directly from lust. Their bites are literally orgasmic, and even recalling the bites can cause flashbacks. Likewise, they are capable of inciting physical lust in their targets.

Fear: Fear vampires have the ability to feed on and create fear in those around them. This ability works similarly to the lust in that the vampire who feeds using fear can go longer without blood, though not forever. In addition, they have the ability to allow their body to rot into a decaying corpse or even fall apart without suffering damage. As a result, they are almost impossible to kill without fire. They are able to cause "corruption" with their bite -- unless the victim is sufficiently powerful to resist, even a single bite can cause a victim to decay and die.

Bone: Bone vampires feed off of pain and anger. Unlike the lust or fear vampires, these cannot cause emotions in their victims, only in themselves. Capable of stirring themselves into a blood frenzy, these vampires become revenant-like in their capabilities to withstand pain, their eyes turning entirely black at this time. Bone vampires are capable of manipulating their skeletal structure, often resulting in talons, blades, or various other things bursting from their skin when provoked.

Power: Vampires of this bloodline can consume the supernatural energy of their victims, and have a seemingly limitless well to hold it in. The vampires can pull reserve energy from this aura at will if need be, making them capable of incredible physical feats even when compared to their brethren. As a result of this, they are exceptionally good at commanding groups of vampires, and at being 'food' for the lust bloodline, as both vampires are empowered by the use of the lust. They appear to be similar to the bone vampires in that they are capable of channeling this energy into claws or even extra teeth, although most tend towards magical pursuits.

Revenant: Revenant vampires are wild and animalistic, living only to kill. They do not retain enough of a mind to use any supernatural powers and display an immunity to supernatural powers.

FUCKING AWESOME.

While we're at it, what if anything's special about Changelings?
Also how do I turn people into them because I kinda have to.

[Ross Vernal]

They get cool bloodline perks, but totally miss out on the pets, shapeshifting, and ability to go incorpororeal.

Any two differently bloodlined vamps can make a revenant. Only Master level vamps can "control" revenants, and you should physically hear the sarcasm in those quote marks.

Changelings are sort of savants. You basically flay their mortality away and replace it with some of your soul, magic, blood, glamour, etc. End result, you have a demisidhe immortal companion with ONE interest/skill set.  They become a lot more skilled, too.

Eventually, they do that thing where they either create an artifact-level item and ascend into the Sidhe, or go insane in any number of ways. If they're still useful, they remain a half-mad half-fey servant forever; otherwise, they die. It's kind of a great honor to bestow, like an ultimate gift.

A warrior would, I dunno, go solo an army or kill and then eat an Outsider with a spork or something.

[Gamerlord]

Can I meld revenants into ghouls? Cos that might control them...

[Ross Vernal]

Immune to powers.

So, no.

[Gamerlord]

That's annoying. Eh, I'll figure it out. Now, how hard is it to make sentient undead from scraps of souls and corpses? Basically, sentient undead that do NOT have the mind of whoever they were created from.

[Ross Vernal]

That's anywhere from Lesser up. It depends on how smart.

A door guard? Easy. A necromantic servant? Ongoing work of an existence. Even with the low relative power, Mor has master-level skill and could probably do a 8th tier with preparation and 5th-6th on the fly. Solo.

With your party members, you both could do 7th or 8th with minimal preparations.

[Gamerlord]

And a 5th or 6th level would be what, capable of solving complex mathematics or playing an awesome chess game? Or would that be a level 9?

[Ross Vernal]

Skeletal Abomination, Mass Raise Ghoul, and Elemental Undead, in order, fro. 5th, 6th, and 8th.

It depends on what you want it to do. Skelebominatons are pretty smart, but wouldn't comprehend chess unless you stuck a chess player's soulbits up in it. Your servant/familiar can be as smart as you.

[Ross Vernal]

Put it this way: depending on your opinion on children and dogs, they're either smarter than the most intelligent dog in the world or your average five year old.

[Gamerlord]

Okay... How would you feel about me making an incorporeal familiar from the souls of orphans?

[Ross Vernal]

Par for the course. It's lacking that whole "pretending to adopt them and a new puppy at the same time before the ritual sacrifice" I expected, though.

Of course, your god frowns on hurting kids except in a good cause, so sacrifice to Darsh and buy an indulgence from your friendly local Mingan priest. Or like, six, with the buy five, get one free deal.

[Gamerlord]

Does it really count as 'hurting kids' if the orphans in question all have terminal diseases and I'm basically granting them immortality?
