Rules under cut

▍ ❝   RULE ONE. Crossover friendly; I prefer rping with fandoms i’m familiar with, but i’m open to those i’m not as well. You’ll just have to excuse me for any mistakes since I won’t be too familiar with your muse or their world.

▍ ❝   RULE TWO. Multiverse/Multiship; All relationships will take place in different verses.

▍ ❝   RULE THREE. Do not force ship; Do not try to force your muse on mine and do not get upset if I happen to say no to your ship. Not every ship is going to work, that’s just how it is.

▍ ❝   RULE FOUR. Mun is 25+; Due to the nature of this character, I will ONLY interact with those that are also 18+.

▍ ❝   RULE FIVE. No godmodding; I control my character, you control yours. Do not have your muse auto-hit mine, or narrate anything happening to my character without discussing it with me first. It’s really quite infuriating and can leading to a lot of things happening to my character that my character should have reasonably been able to get out of or would be generally ooc.

▍ ❝   RULE SIX. I am generally pretty quick with replies. I usually respond within 3 days, a week at most. If I take longer then that it means i’m probably busy with other blogs and haven’t checked in. Feel free to send in message if i’ve gone a week without replying and you see me still being active. I might have missed your reply or ask somehow.

▍ ❝   RULE SEVEN. Triggers;  Toxic relationships, obsessive behavior, death, forced servitude, abuse, violence, physical and psychological torture, vampire typical blood and violence, isolation, mental illness, PTSD, gore

//You know, I want to reblog horny memes but I feel like every interaction with Velli involves some level of plotting and I feel like most people don't want to deal with that--

//Hi yes hello, like if you would like me to go through your meme tag and send you stuff--

//Dress up time--

❛ you are not for the living. you are not for human kind. ❜ @dcnnela

There's a silence that permeates him. The words settling inside of him like a weight. Rocks weighing down a corpse in a river. He was not for the living, not anymore. He couldn't walk down cobbled streets the same way, wear his uniform in broad daylight, chat casually and easy with his family.

No, he was not made for that any longer.

"So who am I for then? Am I just for you?" The words are spit with venom, but also a hint of resignation. An understanding that there was truth to her words, even if he hated it.

"A-Am I still even for me?" The words come out shakier than he wants, voice cracking. He doesn't know what he wants with the question, as no reassurance from her could ever make it sit right in him.

❛ come to me. ❜

❛ a guardian angel. a spirit of comfort. spirit of any celestial sphere. anything. hear my call. ❜

❛ you wakened me from an eternity of darkness. ❜

❛ you are not for the living. you are not for human kind. ❜

❛ and shall you be one with me ever-eternally? ❜

❛ come here. there’s nothing to be afraid of. ❜

❛ i wish i could stay, my love. ❜

❛ why have you killed these beautiful flowers? ❜

❛ i must tell you my dream. ❜

❛ i’d never been so happy as that moment… as i held hands with death. ❜

❛ i wish you to have all you deserve. ❜

❛ you mustn’t leave. i love you too much. ❜

❛ i will stay with you until you are fast asleep. ❜

❛ uh, forgive me. i only wish to stay one night. ❜

❛ by god’s name, never speak of that castle. ❜

❛ i banish you, i banish you with garlic. ❜

❛ beware of his shadow. ❜

❛ the shadow covers you in a nightmare. ❜

❛ you are late. the midnight hour has passed. ❜

❛ i wish you to do as i request. ❜

❛ i will be addressed as the honor of my blood demands it.❜

❛ speak not of it again! ❜

❛ take heed what you do. ❜

❛ i might ease your wound. ❜

❛ come by the fire. ❜

❛ your face shows you unwell. ❜

❛ do you ever feel at times as if you were not… as if you were not a person? ❜

❛ look at the sky. look at the sea. does it never call to you, urge you? ❜

❛ you are fortunate in your love. ❜

❛ now are we neighbors. ❜

❛ it is late. you must wish to retire. ❜

❛ i have been enduring the most irregular dreams. i fear i am taken ill. ❜

❛ it is a black omen to journey in poor health. you will remain and well rest yourself. ❜

❛ dream of me. only me. ❜

❛ oh, he’s coming to me. ❜

❛ i cannot resist you, my love. ❜

❛ i am no one. i am his servant. ❜

❛ look, this is a pretty one. his lordship likes the pretty ones… ❜

❛ you are lost in his shadow. ❜

❛ soon i will no longer be a shadow to you. ❜

❛ soon our flesh shall embrace and we shall be as one. ❜

❛ i have not failed your lordship! ❜

❛ embrace me, my boy. i am so rejoiced to see you. ❜

❛ my dear creature, yes, i am he, and i am hither come to help you. ❜

❛ my dreams grow darker. ❜

❛ does evil come from within us or from beyond? ❜

❛ i shall persist to join you every night… first in sleep, then in your arms. ❜

❛ everything will be mixed with abomination, and you’ll be knee-deep in blood. ❜

❛ you are promised to me! ❜

❛ i will end this plague. this devil. ❜

❛ he hasn’t found you. ❜

❛ i feared i’d never see you again. ❜

❛ you shall crave of me nothing. ❜

❛ the bells of dawn shall toll in despair of my coming. and i shall taste of you. ❜

❛ pray, forgive me for all the troubles i have caused you. ❜

❛ i am only glad you have become yourself again. ❜

❛ may i… stay with you tonight? ❜

❛ this creature is a force more powerful than evil. it is death itself. ❜

❛ i have seen things in this world that would’ve made isaac newton crawl back into his mother’s womb. ❜

❛ i have wrestled with the devil as jacob wrestled the angel in peniel. ❜

❛ if we are to tame darkness, we must first face that it exists. ❜

❛ i have felt you crawling like a serpent in my body. ❜

❛ love is inferior to you. ❜

❛ i told you, you are not of humankind. ❜

❛ i am an appetite. nothing more. ❜

❛ i lay within the darkest pit. till you did wake me, enchantress, and stirred me from my grave. ❜

❛ you are my affliction. ❜

❛ i care nothing of your afflictions. ❜

❛ yet even now we are fated. ❜

❛ your passion is bound to me. ❜

❛ you cannot love. ❜

❛ yet i cannot be sated without you. ❜

❛ remember how once we were? ❜

❛ i abhor you. ❜

❛ i will leave you three nights. tonight was the first. ❜

❛ tonight you denied yourself, and thereby, you suffer me to vanish up the lives of those you love. ❜

❛ you revel in my torture. ❜

❛ upon the third night, you will submit, or he you call your husband shall perish by my hand. ❜

❛ till you bid me come shall you watch the world become as naught. ❜

❛ tell me, what is this insufferable darkness? ❜

❛ nothing you can say will shake me, for there is a devil in this world, and i have met him. ❜

❛ i’ve brought this evil upon us. ❜

❛ i sought company. i sought… tenderness, and i called out. ❜

❛ at first, it was sweet. i had never known such bliss. yet it turned to torture. ❜

❛ it was you that gave me the courage to be free of my shame. ❜

❛ he took me as his lover then, and now he has come back. ❜

❛ all my sleeping thoughts are of him every night. ❜

❛ don’t touch me! i am not to be touched. ❜

❛ i’ll be good. i promise. ❜

❛ you could never please me as he could. ❜

❛ yes! take me! ❜

❛ kiss me. kiss my heart. ❜

❛ let him see. let him see our love. ❜

❛ without you, i will become a demon. ❜

❛ you’re safe with me. ❜

❛ keep away from me. i am unclean. ❜

❛ he will murder you if i do not go to him. ❜

❛ kill him i will. he shall never harm you again. ❜

❛ i can weep no longer, for i have no more tears to shed. ❜

❛ the grim reaper wields his heavy scythe with every change of wind. ❜

❛ the monster left you to the wolves, yet you prevailed. ❜

❛ his pull to me is so powerful, so terrible, yet my spirit cannot be evil as his. ❜

❛ we must know evil to be able to destroy it. ❜

❛ you are our salvation. ❜

❛ i bid you, come to me. ❜

❛ your oath re-pledged. so too shall be our flesh. you are mine. ❜

Vhaal'krin tilts his head in that curious way he does, red eyes twinkling as he skims through the other as if he's searching for something in the other—not suspicion, just beady eyed curiosity, taking in his stance, his hair, his eyes. "Why? I have to check... It's not that you look like the hag type or anything, it's just—well, I'm very tasty, you know?" Apparently so, anyways.

He hooks his finger around—the lord's? the prince? what was he? He does so very delicately, because he felt as though he could break the other without meaning to; even though he's cold as a stone left near a river, and their hands shake, like children making a pact.

Something about him seems... odd. Old. Not in appearance, just in the way he talks, the way he articulates. Far older than he—but isn't everyone? He doubted such a thing could be considered a feat.

"Ah... well, you should be more careful, then. You look very dainty and like danger-prone... and there's still a few rogue mindflayers wandering about, I just had a scuffle to subdue one just on my over here... I think I'd very much like to see you in uneaten, as well." he smiled, impish, wide, boyish in a way that felt dangerously carefree as he allowed for his hand to drop. "My friends call me Vhaal," he greets nonchalantly, tossing a white tuft of his long white hair back; well, they would, if he had any. "You look like you need a friend... I'll tell you what—I won't let any mindflayers eat you tonight, yeah?"

[bloodlesson]

Vellioth can't help the chuckle that escapes his lips at the elfs words. The little fool just advertising himself as a meal, truly. Well, he supposes he'll find out just how 'tasty' this one is soon enough.

"My, you subdued a mindflayer?" He didn't have to feign being impressed, for that much was genuine. This scrawny little thing could take on an illithid? While he didn't know much at all about the creatures, he did know them to be fearsome things. Not something just anyone could handle.

"Well, I suppose the sacrifice of a few flowers is well worth acquiring your protection. Let me treat my knight to dinner at the least. You may call me... Alain, for now." He hadn't been back long, not enough to decide on whether he should resume his former identity or start from scratch. Better to give out a name no one would remember, even if it left a bitter taste in his mouth.

He would step aside, motioning Vhaal into the palace door. He would have to hope his new spawn could cook with whatever was left over from the stock for Cazadors human servants.

[pitofvypers]

"I figured as such," Vyper let out a small laugh. "You seem like quite the gentleman, after all." He remarks, hoping to butter the other man up- his glare becoming almost... sinister as he recognizes the other man's hesitance. The dhampir's own height often set other people off, and he adored every second of it. Ohhh, this could be lots more fun than he'd initially thought. He lets himself be led by the stranger, letting the prying eyes of the brothel look over the both of them. Vyper adored the attention, even the more subtle kind. The attention from this man isn't too horrid, either. Especially if it means free drinks. "My taste is far from expensive," He admits, and it's far from a lie, either. "So get me whatever you'd like." A flirtatious wink is given, and as they wait for their drinks, he leans back into his chair. Vellioth, hm...? Yeah, the cultist vaguely recognizes that name, now that he thinks about it... Though it makes one question why someone like him is here to begin with, of all places. It doesn't take a particularly enlightened mind to know most Upper City nobles stay in the Upper City.

"You can just call me Vyper." Another low, raspy laugh. It sounds almost like a growl.

[bloodlesson]

He's not overly surprised by that answer, but gives him a pleased look regardless. A woman appears, certainly dressed to match the atmosphere and takes their order. Another glass of wine and a higher end ale for his 'guest'.

As she walks away, his gaze falls back on the other. He didn't quite seem out of place here. The Sharess attracted all kinds of folk, often types visiting the city for their own ends, which is usually the ideal prey for him... just in case.

"An interesting name. I don't have to worry about you biting, do I?" He can't help the little grin that crosses his face at the little joke, even if the other wouldn't grasp the irony behind it.

"Are you a local? Or just another passing through?" He rests his cheek against his palm, feigning interest in whatever the answer might be. It would determine just how careful he needed to be with this one.

" it's a good look on you. you should get covered in blood more often. " Lorri stfu

The vampire scoffs at the words, wiping the blood from his lips and his chin on a black handkerchief. He hadn't expected such an immediate response to his request, used to playing a back and forth game of carrier pigeon before anything could be accomplished in this city.

And clearly, he hadn't instructed his new spawn well enough not to allow guests in while he was feeding. No matter, no damage done it would seem. The wizard seemed so very unbothered, unsurprised even. He lets his amusement show on his face, even if he doesn't acknowledge the comment verbally. At least the remnants of his meal were in the other room, out of sight.

"Clearly I need to have a talk with my staff, but please do make yourself comfortable my esteemed wizard." The vampire purrs, motioning to the dining room table. It was a long, wooden table, clearly meant to host large parties, though the thin layer of dust atop it showed it hadn't been used for that purpose in quite some time.

"Forgive the mess, I fear I wasn't expecting you so soon. Still, I'm more than happy to discuss the matter of the late Szarrs trinkets. Better in your hands, then left rotting out of spite, yes?"

[bloodlesson]

❝ um, i was just resting my eyes… you won’t tell anybody, right? ❞

Red eyes look down at the girl with amusement, watching as she tried to collect herself, make it seem like she hadn't fallen asleep during one of her little tasks. If she'd been one of his own, he'd be having her complete the tasks with the added inconvenience of kitchenware thrust through the meet of her leg.

But as it was, he didn't meddle in the affairs of other lords and their staff. "Your secret is safe with me, little one. Perhaps you should find a spot a little less open, to rest those eyes. Or at the very least, finish your assignments."

[bloodlesson]

//Banning myself from Serkan for a moment, I need to do drafts here. Or asks--

[bloodlesson]

//I forgot to show off the other spawn I made. These will be the spawn he gets later in his back from dead verse--
