[quote=@Tsar Gatto] Hey hey, thanks for the consideration – as always this looks delicious and has not failed to entice. I’d love to join if you’ll have me, this time I’ll not be fading away into nothingness. I’ll get to work right away on a character of some type, hopefully more involved in things this time around. (Though working in the financial services in the UK, today will be a baaaad day no doubt. So no promises about timings I’m afraid). [/quote] Glad to have you back, Gatto! (Christ, I feel for you, my dude. As a country we've fucked up big time). [quote=@Keksalot] Is it possible for a vampire not "born" into Nyctary to establish himself as a very valuable asset and ally to the family or does the right of blood override anything an outsider can do? [/quote] Yep! The Nyctari value any asset they can get their hands on, even if it is souly to further their own ambitions. Kreslav would likely find himself being fought over by scheming family members.
