IC: Kira Sarken

As Kira continued to feed, part of her horrofied beyond measure, another more animalistic refused to let go. As this inner struggle continued she heard a voice inside her mind, "Kira! Stop now! He's going to die! Don't kill him!" Kira tried to fight her new insticts, she fought with every once of mental strangth she could muster, even resorting to concentration techniques Master Renning had been teaching her, would it be enough?

"What just are you offering?"

"Why, whatever your charming selves would prefer, of course," Vasud replied, smiling at the questioner. The only trouble was that she didn't seem inclined to approach him as yet. Inwardly, he relaxed as another of the girls came closer.

"We could use some more drinks ya know,"

"Well, if that is what you want, it would be my pleasure to provide it." His expression remained charming in the extreme even as a small part of his mind flinched as another girl spoke against it. It wasn't the protest. It was the identifying of the girl approaching him. Ally. Her name is Ally.

"Oh come on guys, the night is still young! So what about it?"

Deftly, Vasud caught the girl- Ally- as she stumbled. "Careful there, friend. Wouldn't want you to hurt yourself." He nodded to the girl who'd first spoken. "Would you like to come and select new drinks? I know a shop that sells some good ones," he offered, smiling winningly and extending his free hand. Hopefully his gifts in the direction of charm would prove persuasive enough.

If she said yes, it'd be easy enough to walk them further down an alley, to somewhere a little more private, where his intent could not be interrupted.

I'm sorry I wasn't as punctual with my GM update as I said I would be, but here it is, despite being a couple of days late! Enjoy!!!


GM POST

Kira: Jack: Stenton
The Loft

The quiet voice in Kira's mind grew louder, and she tore her mouth away from the victim’s neck. He fell to the ground, unconscious and pale, but breathing. Standing up straight and take in the night. Something had changed, and Kira realized with a heavy feeling that it was her.

The voice of protest faded inside Stenton's mind, however, shouted down by a much louder, much stronger voice. He dug his fangs deeper into the girl's neck, straining for the last drops of blood. Stenton felt empty and cold, and the blood inside this person — this thing — could make him warm, could make him live, could sustain him for another night. The voice of reason wept, but a much older and more powerful voice laughed and exulted, satiated.

Jack was torn between the two, with both voices screaming in his ear. However, with a lot of effort, he finally pried his mouth off of the girl's neck and dropped her body, which was still barely breathing, but alive.

Stolen blood spread throughout Kira's and Jack's bodies, and they already felt the warmth it gave them leaving. Their victims lay still, and as they looked down at their faces, pale and washed out, a tiny trickle of blood leaking from the wounds in their necks as small voice inside of Kira and Jack said that they have become a monster. But another side of them protested, saying that they were still in control. Kira and Jack were still who they were that morning, simply… changed.

Sweet blood spread throughout Stenton's body, warming him, strengthening him, feeding him. He knew what he had done and what he had become, even if he didn't know how or why. Stenton was more than he was that morning, and if that meant that he must feed on the blood of others… he thought he could do that.

Through feeding, Jack and Kira have gained 3 vitae as they did not kill their victim. Stenton has gained a full 10 Vitae because of draining every ounce of blood from his victim. Stenton, however, has lost 1 point of humanity.

As the party looked down upon their victims, they heard footsteps behind them. A man was walking toward them, slowly and deliberately, his hands slightly raised as though to show them he meant no harm. He was dressed in flowing black jedi robes and wore a priest’s collar. His blue eyes lingered upon everyone's faces, and then he glanced over your shoulder at the bodies next to you.

“Don’t be afraid,” he said. “I’m not here to hurt you.” Despite these words, Kira, Jack and Stenton felt an urge to run as he took a step towards them. A primitive and frightened voice somewhere inside them identified this man as a predator among predators. The feeling passed, however, ver, and the priest placed a hand on Kira's shoulder. “My name is Father John Marrow,” he whispers, “and I, like you, am Kindred.”

At his name, Kira's memory was perked. She knew John Marrow, or knew of him at least. He was one of the Ministers at the Church of the Creator, a local church which catered to the Religion of the Creator, a religion very similar to the belief of the Jedi. Many jedi said that John in fact used to be a Jedi Master. Kira also knew, as well, that John was the Minister that led the congreation during Midnight massess. A different minister always did the massess during the day.

"I'm sure you all have questions," John said, looking around the area and glancing once again at the three bodies. "However, now is not the place nor the time for them as many unwanted eyes may be watching. It is best if you follow me. We can go to my Church. We will be safe there."

He walked over to the one body that was dead and sighed and looked over at Stenton, almost as if he knew he was the culprit. Then without a word, he pulled a blaster pistol from his pocket and pointed it at the body. He then pulled the trigger and shot the dead figure between the eyes. Shoving the blaster back into his robes, he turned to the three newly made vampires. "Follow me and Stay Close."

He left the loft, the three vampires following him closely. Turning a corner he led them down a dark alley and before long they were standing before a small building with many towers and various religious symbols. This was obviously the Church of the Creator, as a large sign above the door announced it as such. Unlike the building surrounding it, it was free of graffiti and litter, but it clearly needed a lot of repair and upkeep. The door hung strangely off its hinges, making the front of the church look strangely lopsided and the small patch of lawn in front was in desperate need of a mow. There was a small sign out front, which read "The sheep who knows the shepherd need not fear the wolf."

John led the three young vampires around to the back of the church and unlocked the door there. Ushering them inside, he leaned out to look carefully around the speeder lot before closing the door behind him. However, just before John closed the door, Jack could have sworn that he heard someone's footsteps outside. The sound was faint, however, and left as soon as it came.

Father John turned around looking worried. He motioned for all of the young vampires to sit down in the plastic chairs in the room they had just entered. room.

They were all in a room used for sunday school. Posters with inspirational photographs or cute drawings and religious text verses adorned the walls, but judging from how faded and frayed they were, they hadn’t been changed in years. The linoleum tiles in the floor were cracked, and although most of the room were clean, the corners were filthy. A tarnished silver crucifix hungs over the door through which you just entered, and it wobbled precariously as John shut the door.

“I don’t know how much time we have,” he explained. “I can answer some of your questions — I’m sure you have many.” He sat down and pulled a rosary from his pocket. He played the beads between his fingers as he waited for everyone's queries.

Tag: Kira, Jack, Stenton



Vasud
The street outside of the church.
Two girls lie unconcious upon the ground, much of their blood drained from their young bodies. Vasud looked down upon them, but as he looked upon the time-keeper he carried upon his person, he realized it was nearly time for him to head over towards the Church of the Creator. Almost as he thought this, his comm-unit beeped and as he picked it up Lord Dastchell's voice came over towards.

"John should have gotten to the childes by now. I have arranged for a speeder to meet you at the church in one half hour in order for you to bring them to me. Move to the church and observe John and the Childes. Allow them to ask him their questions and allow him to answer. Once he is done, do not allow them to linger. Take them away and when you get here I want you to report on everything John does." His voice then chirped out without a chance for Vasud to reply.

Sighing, Vasud left the still breathing, but unconcious and pale, girls upon the street and wipes the left towards the east, where he knew the church lie.

As he entered the ground, he made his way to a secure spot in the shadows. He then saw the Priest and the young vampires approaching. He followed them as they moved to the back of the church and observed as John looked about the speeder lot worriedly and then closed the door. He walked up to the door as it closed and knelt down, listening to everything that went on inside.

Tag: Vasud



Hurakan
As Hurakan moved towards the industrial sector, his beast sense flared and he looked to his left to notice one of the few other vampires he knew. Vasud, Dastchell's personal lap-dog, was making his way towards the old Church of the Creator. Intrigued, Huraka stopped his present course and thought about whether to follow him or not. Whatever Vasud was interested in, Lord Dastchell was interested in, and whatever Dastchell was interested in would be something very interesting indeed.

And if Vasud was going to the church, it most likely concerned Father John, and if it concerned father John it most likely concerned Lord Savoy, a rival Lord to Dastchell who had been trying to wrestle the command of the Coruscant sector's Brood from Dastchell for many years. And if it concerned Lord Savoy, it would most likely end in bloodshed. And Hurakan liked Bloodshed.

IC: Kira Sarken

As they followed the man, the kindred as he called himself, and them. As they walked Kira was torn between horror, anger, and fear. He bid them to sit down and said they could ask questions they must have. Oh she had them.
"First, why, how have we been turned into creatures of nightmares? Second, what is going on? Third and most important, are you the one that did this to us?!" As she said the last question she stood and activated her lightsaber in a viridian fire, Her eyes locked on this man. Her anger was getting the better of her, although it was really understandable if you looked at the circumstances.

IC Stenton Carrios:

When the man approached Stenton followed silenty glancing at his companions. One was a woman and from the lightsaber on her belt a jedi or sith, another a Zabrak who looked and felt more like a techy then anything. As they entered the church he sat back relaxed, after all he could kill the man in an instant with the force. Plus he needed to know about what was happening, however the girl obviously had other idea's and jumped up with a lightsaber. Stenton became alert his hand dropping to the blade on his belt but he felt no need to fight at that moment. "Sit down!" he hissed "He was about to explain our situation so put down the lightsaber and calm yourself." He too was angry but knew that he'd kill the man after he gave the information.

Kira's common sense caught up with her hasty actions about the same time one of the others told her to sit down and she did but not because he said so. She kept her eyes locked on this kindred as he called himself whom she knew of. He had called them that two. Was that what these creatures, that they had no become as well, called themselves?

IC: Father John

John was extremely calm in the face of the young girl was pointing a weapon in his face. "Firstly children, there is no reason for such animosity. You will face such adversity by everything else that division among yourselves will be extremely foolish. "

He then flicked his wirst in Kira's direction and her lightsaber was ripped from her grasp and flew into John's open hand. "I used to be one of you child," he said towards her, inspecting the lightsaber slightly before laying it on a table next to where he had taken a seat. "I was known as a different name when I was a Jedi Master. However, that was many years ago, before I was turned like you. I have been a kindred, like you all, for a good fourty years now, and I was assumed dead. But enough about my past, there will be enough time later for that if you wish, but right now we don't have much time."

"To answer your first question, You have all become Vampires, cursed by the force to never know daylight and to drink only the blood of mortals/ How this came to pass is one of the great mysteries of the force, but be crtain that some other vampire - we call each other 'Kindred' - took notice of you and passed his curse along. How this is done I am not at liberty to say, but I can say that it involves biting you and draining you of all your blood before entering into a complex ritual that is forbidden to teach to newly made vampires."

"To answer you second question, you have been turned into vampires as I said, however it is forbidden to create a new vampire without the permission of a vampire leader. Every planet has a Prince, the eldest and most powerful Kindred on that planet. Our Prince is a Hapan called Vidal Dastchell and I expect you'll be meeting him soon. If you are a Jedi or a follower of the creator, keep your faith. If you are not, I recommend you consider conversion."

"And to answer your lasts question, no I am not the one to do this to you. Every sire and childe have a blood bond that they can feel the minute they look upon each other. The sire is the vampire who made the younger one and the childe is the person who was sired. If I was your sire, you would feel a strong connection to me."

He then looked around, waiting for more questions.

His answers had calmed Kira somewhat and if what he said was true she would know when she found whoever did this to her. As she considered that a new voice in her mind spoke up.
Who says this happening is not a good thing regardless of how it came to happen? Something with this many downsides has to have some form of a bonus. From the looks of things there is no way back anyway so you might as well try to find the silver lining. Kira spoke again, this time in a much calmer manner, "If this happening has as many downsides as you say, is there any I hate to ask benifits? Also what was that about not able to see the daylight again?"

IC Stenton Carrios:

Stenton tensed up when the blade was ripped from her grasp. A quick glance and touch showed that his lightsaber was still there. For now. However the man started talking and Stenton's eyes widened, no sunlight? cursed by the force? who was this nut and where did he get such idea's. But the idea of drinking that girls blood, every drop, the man was right he had felt the need for it. He scowled, this was not going well and we hasn't exactly pleased over no more sun and having to drink blood. The girl asked about the benefits, with a quick glance at the girl he leaned in closer. He wished to hear the benefits, hearing the word Mortal had peaked his interest, was he immortal?

Sorry. The three you got is towards your max possible which is the number you chose in the beginning. In other words someone with 100 vitae would be the most powerful, but would also have to feed A LOT to fill his vitae pool. Either way, however,, 10 vitae is considered satiated. The rest of the vitate is optional to use.

IC: Father John

John looked over Kira and said, "I did not say that it had an enourmous amount of downsides, I simply said that you will face much adversity. Just as new sharks in the ocean must defend themselves from the older and more powerful predators, so will you have to be wary of older and much more powerful vampires."

"Also," he clarified, "A stake through the heart destroys a vampire, as does sunlight and fire, however contrary to belief, garlic does nothing to a vampire. Personally, I actually like the smell of Garlic. It pains me greatly that I cannot eat it any longer." He smiled as he thought he had made a joke, but clearly no one thought he was funny. Sighing, he continued.

"As well as sunlight, we must sleep during the day and no force can rouse us. We must drink blood to survive, although we need not survive on the blood of sentients. We can subsist on the blood of animals, however it takes alot more of that than sentient blood to satiate a vampire, and I highly reccoment overcoming your personal convictions and feeding upon mortals. Humans are usually the best tasting blood in my experience."

"Also, remember that religious objects and light force techniques used by the jedi repel us, unless we keep our souls pure of sin and void of the dark side."

"As far as being immortal," he continued, "Kindred can exist for hundreds, even thousands of years but we are not truly immortal. We can be killed and after so long a Kindred must take a long slumber in the earth of his home planet. This slumber must last for no less than one hundred years so that the vampire may regain his strength. If the vampire does not do this, he will eeventually waste away and die."

"However, you will find that a correctly trained vampire is just as powerful as any Jedi or vampire that you will find. Our stolen blood, or vitae as we call it, grants us the power to use various powers."

IC: Vasud Sokaris

Vasud walked toward the Church of the Creator- a place he, personally, would have been glad never to set foot in again. It had been so easy to take what he wished from those girls. A mere touch of the Force to render them unconscious, and the loss of blood kept them that way while he was bringing them back to their friends, pretending that it had merely been the alcohol that had made the pair pass out.

He still had some shred of decency, after all; leaving the two girls unconscious where anyone might take advantage of them would have been wrong. They were safer back with their friends, and should recover fine.

Along the way, his senses gave him warning that another was in the area. Glimpsing him out of the corner of his eye, Vasud continued on his way, pretending he'd not seen the other vampire. He was on Lord Dastchell's business. That came first. Concentrating on that meant he could almost ignore knowing the other was there.

Finally, Vasud reached his destination. Hiding in the shadows, he watched as the others arrived. One in Jedi robes, a tall man, a Zabrak, and the one escorting them... His fair face twisted into a sneer of contempt. Father John Marrow, the preacher. The former Jedi. The professional fool. 'Caring, and likes people'. If only he liked rational thought a little more instead.

Listening at the door, the Morganian heard the questions of the new vampires, and Father John's tedious explanations. The explanations were littered with weak jokes and religious maunderings, as well as the odd unnecessary metaphor. Boring...

Vasud waited outside a few more minutes, giving time for any more questions, though most things seemed to have been covered, then knocked on the door.
