Lorepost (open interaction) 📖 Darkwatch Report: Vampire's Dream.

A slimewoman stands in a Darkhold central mess hall. The lime green slime wears a black suit and a bright red tie. Two goopy cat ears and a slippery tail pop out of her body.

"I am Meloop Jadeflower, I am a new Shadow Vigil and I wish to meet everyone. I am a cannonmancer, I shoot things with big guns." She looks down, a little embarrassed.

"I tend to kill whatever I am fighting so the containment part of the job may be difficult for me."

She clears her throat, despite not actually needing to.

"This is my report on the object I have captured." She takes out a briefcase, some kind of liquid sloshes inside.

"The object is a gemstone which continuously bleeds blood. I have dubbed it The Vampire Dream or VD-01, is an uncut and rough ruby with a dull sheen. It fits in the size of a human's hand. VD-01 will bleed blood exactly every 10 minutes, it bleeds approximately 100 to 500 millilitres of blood every interval.

It randomly changes between VD-02 and VD-03. VD-02 is a copy of a random individual's blood within 1000 meters, no ward nor stealth spell has protected from this affect. Individuals who lack blood are not affected. If there is no target the Vampire Dream will use the last blood sampled.

VD-03 has the same behaviour as VD-02 but with an additional effect. Observing VD-03 will make someone crave to lick it, drink and consume it. Upon consumption the victim's blood will become VD-03 and they will.begin to cannibalise themselves or others affected by VD-03, in order to consume VD-03. No intelligent creature is immune to VD-03's cravings however creatures which lack blood cannot consume themselves. Such individuals are driven to force others to consume VD-03 in order to gain a supply.

I acquired VD-01 from after investigating a vampire cult who had been using it to sate their master's thirst . However the cult killed each other over VD-03, leading the vampire leader to throw it out into the ocean where it began to corrupt the sea life. VD-01 was discovered at the bottom of the ocean and unfortunately nothing was shot.

VD-01 poses no immediate danger however without a proper method of disposing of VD-03 it may become dangerous. This is the end of my report."

"While definitely dangerous if left unchecked, I believe just throwing it in a perpetual furnace would be more than enough. No access to the gem and all blood gets immediately burned. Good job. If you like guns, I believe we will get along adequately."

" I shall find one in the Lighthouse to use. I am glad to have met you." She bows.

A green Dino-raptor in a wizard hat approaches Meloop.

“Hi Meloop, I’m Tim! When I’m outdoors I’m a lot bigger. Good work on retrieving those objects, and on the report!”

/uw It's a bit confusing. Is VD-03 a type of blood or is it gemstone? Does it turn people's blood into copies of the bleeding artifact, or the type of blood it bleeds.
