But it seems very, very off to me that the expectation is that the other party members will ALLOW THE VAMPIRE TO DRAIN THEIR BLOOD.Sure, from a game mechanical view point you're just giving up a healing surge and it is no different from giving one to an artificer or a ritual.But from the flavour perspective it seems incredibly different to me.I know that a great many characters that I play would be quite willing to give a healing surge via magical means but NOT by offering up my neck for a vampire to suck.Part of that, of course, is a trust issue. Maybe after I'd adventured with the guy for 10 levels I'd change my mind. But at first level? Or after just meeting him? No way.</blockquote>
