[QUOTE="Velaria, post: 4200573, member: 63120"] No vampires here nope not me.... well.. *shifty eyes* Okay yes, Velaria became a vampire thanks to Valreus Rohaun long ago.. what.. 7 years ago or so? However through great will she turned her need from blood to that of feeding off of extreme emotions that so often flew around the rp rooms. Yet, despite all my efforts to prove that blood was not her chosen form of food, everyone always knew that she was a vamp though I never flashed fangs, or acted such, Simply because my profile said Velaria Starmantle Rohaun, and at that time leader of the Rohaun family. I followed the rules, that when she was in the old emporium, she was never fully there, appearing simply as a shimmering figure, and mostly effected things only through voice and thoughts. So many times I have seen the power player and the like, and often times I was called such. Perhaps back then I was, but then it was the way my character was. When she ascended (retired her) she was cast out of the heavens because she chose to meddle in mortal affairs to much, (people insisted I come back) when she was, she came back as a normal elven woman, though still holding her wisdom and knowledge within behind locked doors, that slowly trickles out as she meets with those she once knew. Immortal, no, hard to kill, yes, and have and will fight like mad with Vel but she has been messed up and sent into month long recuperations or more on several occasions. I guess what my rambling is pointing at is this, not everyone falls under the categories that is being spoken of, not everyone falls under the preconceived notions of what they were before I stopped playing because it was sickening to come into the room, and those that I had helped before ic sneered and acted disgusted with me because even though I was always a vamp from the first few weeks of my rp back in TSR, they now knew it to be true and immediately called me scum. So just think about that the next time an excellent rper comes in, and is playing a vamp with some variations on the "rules" that being condescending to them does not necessarily help them, but could very well chase them away. Instead, try coaching them, showing them where they can play better, and explain what not everyone may know.. the flavor of the month is not always received well. Ehh just my 2 cents which is still not worth much at all. Velaria [/QUOTE]
