Good Evening, My name is M and I am an avid walking blood bank. What this topic is about? Humans! As stated in a reply I made on Jean-Michel in regards to humans (and stated to the Co-Admin) that is really little info on humans and places for them. A lot went through my mind when creating my two b.b. and I felt I could be treading on water when I finally posted their applications. A few questions taken from my brain... - Is it world wide known about the incident in 2019? - Was it ever addressed world wide? (One of my character's great grand parents are still alive and would have known of this incident) - Is it world wide now? Its been almost 100 years, would other areas in the world now have an acceptance or overthrown goverment by the discovery of their bretheren? - Do people live in fear and avoid or still oblivious to the fact their blood mixes with the supernatural? - Is the human goverment now completly ran by the supernatural species? - Again is it a cover with humans thinking they are following their own speicies? - Are they just accepting the new and replacing the old with them? - Do they (w/v) state they are humans and just pull the strings within departments? Though it is stated within scrolling welcome section of the sidebar of some info (attraction hot spot) but that is really the only blob of info that can be taken that humans may know of the creatures. Other then that the board description doesn't help much either. So I gathered, yes, humans are still roaming, consuming and breeding. Yes I am sure they have the same shit jobs to high end money; but with the info I get from the site plot/description; where do they all fit? Again it falls to my questions on do they know? Accept? Ignore? Which now places me to a repeated statement; areas. Cool beans to the deep descriptions! But again little on human influence. If its not high end flats or destroyed ruins; there isnt much left in between for well... the rest. My character Lavinia can fit within any class but middle would be hers; influence with high for being an entertainer/bartender and low influence as a fast medic with a high price and again bartending. Same with Jean-Michel. High end known photographer; good... human... not sure where to post at cause well the descriptions of areas are palced I do not think he would go to. Again, Im dishing out things from the brain. If you need help on this or want to discuss this with me, I would be more than willing to help out on it just send a PM or something. (Need to stop saying Again). But I shall stop now before I feel like my foot goes deeper in my mouth. - M Edit: Read what was stated by Admin; Understandable on the little areas but again information is still going on. If it is just London and no where else, there should still be placed for 'revolution humans' are trying for (or if in other places of the world, well think of it as like Terminator; some humans want to have their old world back as others (like my two) will just live within it).

I love your questions you should ask more xD. 1. Yes, everyone knows about this incident and vampires and werewolves can be found all over the world, the reaction would depend from individual to individual, I was thinking of posting the were and vamp cities around the world, but figured it was way to much info already, but this is why I wanted people to ask questions, now I can make an FAQ xD Cities where Vamps can be found: Japan, Switzerland, Italy, England, some cities of the States and some of Canada. Weres: England, Some cities in Canada, some in the States, Spain, Russia and Sweden. Humans: Everywhere 2. Only the cities mentioned above occupied by Vamps or Weres are leaded by either vamp or were and, yes they do know about weres and vamps, they do little do hide it, they could really care less, humans in these cities know they are being leaded by weres and vamps, they can't complain and have to live with it. Vamps and weres simply compete for territorry every now and then, but now in the board, there is no fight for territorry going on. 3. Humans have their individual opinions of the situation, this is why that is not specified, in London, they simply live with it, though it doesn't mean they like it. 4. The problems are such in the plot that humans find it hard to fit anywhere. It's part of the plot and don't worry maybe something soon will happen to tip the balance, but while the current were goverment is in charge, humans can have as much money as they want and are still super restricted. The point is interracting with vamps and werewolves, unless you don't know anyone in a high political position of werewolves or vampires, ýou won't have a big house or whatnot >.0

Ko understand; hench the reason Lav is part medic/mixer and J-M a photographer... people need their fixins without going to a doctor and people need someone to make them pretty or known in the tabloids... money comes in and they keep their heads. If I have any more things to dish out ill see what I can find in the brain to ask =)

HOOZA, do so and do not even doubt, adore those questions, but I don't want to confuse people with the deep complexity of this plot, especially since many people don't take politics and such in mind, want to keep it as simple as possible T-T but it's kinda hard.

lol understandable. Again stated in C-Box I am a Vampire: Masquerade/Bloodline tabletop player so politics and the supernatural goes hand in hand to me.

NEW QUESTIONVampire Bite/Embrace/Saliva AgentI am assuming a vampire bite does not kill unless the throat is torn apart but... (if I wrong) will it just by feeding? When a human is embraced (changed) it takes more than one day, correct? Two days to drain the body and the process of destroying the living to become the animated dead is an average of how long? (Again my guessage) - Does the vampire have the saliva agent to numb the area?
- Does the saliva have the euphoric agent (happy good feeling) or can it also have the missing agent so it hurts (choice of player)?
- Also does the agent heal the area once finished (aka lick the wound to close)?
mmm I think that's it for right now.

1. Vampires can kill their ‘food’ by draining all of their blood, draining most of their blood and leaving the victim to bleed to death, ripping out their throats (and other similar scenarios). Victims of ‘just’ feeding do not die unless one of the events mentioned above, also the victim can be too weak and dizzy to stand upright or walk, which can also result in death if they don’t get their bodies lost blood soon.
2. When a vampire bites a human with the intention of changing that human, it normally requires just that saliva comes in contact with a primary artery in the human body, no need to drain the blood. What takes time is the process of changing in itself, a human can lay there writhing in pain for hours (normally takes between 6 through 12 hours in the worst of cases), changing hurts because the human is basically dying, no other real reason, but dying the ‘vampire way’ is extremely painful. After the change has been completed the new vampire can stand and just keep walking their way like nothing happened, of course most of them would go through shock and suffer from their little ‘first thirst’ if they survive the change. (Survival rate is around 40%)
3. No, vampirism transmits almost like a virus, for reasons unknown the vampire can control when they want to ‘change’ a human, though it is more instinct and a little evolutionary twist. If a vampire gets this agent in a primary artery, the result will most likely be changing or dying. Vampire saliva is simply vampire saliva; it just has a few bacteria from drinking blood.
4. Again, the saliva is just saliva, if you spit on someone, they will be just grossed out. What hurts in a vampire bite is the bite itself, having fangs sink into someone’s throat isn’t exactly pleasant, just think of what would happen if some nice sharp fangs sunk into your throat in an attempt to suck your blood.
5. Again, no. Humans who have successfully gone through the change will normally find their recent wounds healed, but it’s because of a vampire’s ability to heal quickly. A vampire cannot ‘heal’ anyone by licking them.

NEW QUESTION
Vampire: Blood Born Carrier
I know nothing much for the werewolf but you should know by now what I favor more of =P
Could a vampire suffer from blood born diseases like HIV/AIDS? If they do is it as the same effect as it would a normal human or slower?
If not will that vampire become a carrier (carries the disease but does not give the effects the disease can do to a human)?
K thats it for now again =)

Ok, most of this is already in the species info but I’ll answer your questions anyways
1. No, vampires cannot suffer from any disease at all except allergy to the sun and allergy to werewolf’s blood, which is more of a condition every vampire suffers than a disease. If a human is born with HIV/AIDS and then gets bitten by a vampire in order to change this human the most likely result will be death.
2. The vampire can carry the bacteria or even HIV/AIDS on their mouths, but they cannot get sick of it, but if they don’t wash their mouth after ‘eating’ and they bite another person the human will get HIV/AIDS, same goes for any disease since most contagious illnesses can be found in your blood, so hepatitis and whatnot can be carried in a vampires mouth, this is one of the reasons the humans-who-are-changed survival rate is low, in order for a human to survive it is better that they do not have such illness.

NEW eerr SUGGESTION && QUESTION
Werewolf Hierarchy
Seeing that the furry ones are in control of the city; maybe to have some sort of Hierarchy listing will give the 'low population' a boost. They are in control of the city right??? Though it is considered a 'group' again, its something to think over.
Just throw up some 'description' : you know your running the city right.
& titles: Fancy Brit word or something similar for Mayor or something of that sort, Secretary, enforcement....
If you need some info or would like a 'werewolf' to start it up; I would be more than willing to form one up just for this. K, now thats out, time to give my characters some T L K (Tender Loving Kills).
Archives board [/u] Will you be creating an archive/dead thread/fini board in the near future?[/center][/font]

Well you see this is the problem why this hasn't been done already; it would count as a werewolf pack. i know how that sounds, but if we were to do this in the first place i would need someone to volunteer to be the Head of the pack which i would think would take the place as top honcho of London and he/it/she would be in everyone's hit list. I already have Izan so i can't do much for the werewolf's part.

As I said; would be more than willing to take that spot. Again it was just a throw up cause of the population being low and many still jump to the human/vamp cause there is a group as is. Understandable, just a throw out.

Well you wouldn't be able too join such a high rank because you already have a high ranked character in Izan, I didn't put that in the rules because i thought it was logical? If you have a high ranked character in ANY group I wouldn't allow you to make a pack of your own, it wouldnt give other members the chance to participate.
