[Mongoose]

Oh, so just to understand, the different system is the "You reform in a random body 24 hours after death"?

 

[The_VALKYRIE]

Does bloodvine still have the same effects it use to under the mew vyre system

 

[Retro]

I'm not sure if I missed it somewhere, but do vyre teeth still regrow if removed? If so, would it also apply to the claws that ferals grow as they rank up?

Also, because I'm still not inherently sure about the progression.
If for example:
Bok'ra infects Ragnar and ragnar infects Raziel and raziel infects malyn

Does this mean Bok'ra ranks up, because three vyres have been made because of him?

Or would Bok'ra have to himself infect all three to rank up?

 

[Ressplendent]

So, quick Q,
If a player was turned Gluttony and Feral, what would the physical changes be? Based on the information given,
A Gluttony vyre would 'gain dog-like teeth, their pupils bleed into the sclera of their eyes, and they have large, pointed ears.'
but a Feral's physical traits are, 'They look exactly like their past selves. There is no way to tell based on their appearance alone. '
Would one override the other?

 

[Mudpaw11]

How would Lover's emotion abilities (ego depletion and besot) effect people that have something that would effect their mind already, such as
1. Spiritblessed (The elemental effects their emotions, ex. Shadowblessed are naturally apathetic so could a strong emotion even be placed in them like besot or would the shadow just cancel it out)
2. Dark Thread ("Darkthread crafts circling ones head seem to block Arcane spells aimed to infiltrate the mind or soul of the wearer")

 

[Fry]

"They cannot hold or willingly touch a holy symbol of a deity not Skraag or a deity which has blessed them."

Does this count for Dead Gods? Specifically Kilrox.

 

[Retro]

If a vyre transitions types, is their rank progression reset?

Nope.

The former.

Yes, if bloodline and type conflict, bloodline takes priority.

"They cannot hold or willingly touch a holy symbol of a deity not Skraag or a deity which has blessed them."

No.

If a vyre transitions types, is their rank progression reset?

No.

 

[Galaxy]

if one vyre with progeny switches bloodlines/types, do all the progeny follow with that switch, or it just confined to the one vyre?

confined to the one vyre

 

[Edouard2000]

A question about Biters and their relationship to holy symbols. Is it something that needs to be visually seen/presented to them or would they sense it on a person. Like if they had a holy symbol of Korog under their shirt, would the Vyre sense it and start backing away. Or is it a typical "The power of christ compels you!" as they hold up the holy symbol?

 

[Jstar]

Are the other subtypes of Vyre capable of turning people like a Feral would, or are they limited to their specific turning method?

They have to know the holy symbol is there for it to have any effect.

The latter.

THE VYRE
F A Q

The new Vyre rework will bring about its own questions, and this is the place to ask those. Commonly asked questions will be stated below in the main page, hopefully they help!
Please use this thread for any questions or feedback.

_ _ ______________________________________ _ _


Does a Vyre need to sleep?
Yes, like a normal person unless stated otherwise (e.g Biters).

Do Vyres bleed, and if so, can they die from bloodloss?
Yes, except where stated otherwise (e.g Biters).

Do Vyres age at all?
Nobles age more slowly the higher their rank, but all the others age as normal.

Can I ‘feed’ on NPCs, or do they need to be player characters?
You could feed on NPCs in events, but otherwise it needs to be other players.

What’s progeny mean?
All vyres below the given vyre in the chain. Vyres they turned, and vyres the vyres they turned have turned, and so on. Whilst some Vyres call only their direct kin (the ones they’ve turned) progeny, this term can apply to all in the bloodline.

Since Lovers feed off of emotion, do they grow fangs still? I understand that the bloodlines may effect like look; but realistically if they didn't need fangs would they grow them?

 

[Lovelyninja567]

If this has already been answered, I apologize -

For the ‘cures’ stated under each new type of Vyre, (Lover, Biter, etc.) I assume these cure the character of Vyrism? Or do they just switch types?

The answer is the same, when they conflict bloodlines take priority over the type.

Cures them of Vyrism.

Another -

I know Vyres are unable to injure their Sires and such, and this may be an IC matter to figure out, but does the Lovers cure still work if the Lover can’t cut out the heart themselves?

 

[Mudpaw11]

How would Lover's emotion abilities (ego depletion and besot) effect people that have something that would effect their mind already, such as
1. Spiritblessed (The elemental effects their emotions, ex. Shadowblessed are naturally apathetic so could a strong emotion even be placed in them like besot or would the shadow just cancel it out)
2. Dark Thread ("Darkthread crafts circling ones head seem to block Arcane spells aimed to infiltrate the mind or soul of the wearer")

Small bump since I'm unsure if this is still just waiting on an answer/being discussed or if it was accidentally missed

 

[Ressplendent]

It says that Gluttony vyres have large, pointed ears. What would happen if someone were to cut them? As in, cut the point. Would they grow back or?

 

[blargtheawesome]

oh my god i forgot one

How would Lover's emotion abilities (ego depletion and besot) effect people that have something that would effect their mind already, such as
1. Spiritblessed (The elemental effects their emotions, ex. Shadowblessed are naturally apathetic so could a strong emotion even be placed in them like besot or would the shadow just cancel it out)

Ego deplotion would work. Besot might not work, it might work. Talk it out with the player in context.

2. Dark Thread ("Darkthread crafts circling ones head seem to block Arcane spells aimed to infiltrate the mind or soul of the wearer")

Dark thread works on Lover abilities.

Yes, they could get someone to cut it out for them.

They don't revert after cosmetic surgery.
