Create a mortal if none are available. Take the skill Bloodthirsty. I returned from my visit with the Danish Prince Cnut. I was not well; my time with the woman Aija seemed to have left me with some sort of affliction. I did not recall all of the details of our.... dalliance. I should have heeded the rumors about her, and ignored her advances. It seemed she... did something to me. My skin seemed to burn and itch, and I was taken by an incredible hunger, though I had no appetite.Instead of reporting to King Aethelred, I sent Sigefirth in my stead. Returning to my guest chambers in his majesty's castle, I found Eadgyth waiting for me. She welcomed me warmly, and as we embraced, my hunger became overwhelming. I pulled her close and felt the beating of her heart in her neck. I could almost see the blood pulsing in her veins, and I knew how to satiate my hunger.I drank of her. In doing so, I recalled my encounter with Aija more fully. I realized what had happened to me. It did not stop me. I was so hungry that I simply could not stop.Finally, when I'd had my fill, I let Eadgyth's pale body fall to the floor. For a moment, I felt... complete. But it was fleeting. Before long, the horror of what I'd done registered. Not that poor Eadgyth was gone, but that I'd killed her. I would have to do something about this. Could I hide the fact? Could I blame it upon one of the king's enemies? What could I do?But even then, beyond the concern for my station and my position, already I was wondering when I would be able to feed again.**********Results: Eadgyth is killed; Bloodthirsty skill gainedExperience added to Memory 4: <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">After my encounter with Aija, I find myself changed, and upon returning home to my wife, I'm overcome with a bloodlust and I drain Eadgyth.</li> </ul></blockquote>
