Also, remember, Forest really doesn't have much if any wood in her house.

There's a lot of stone and metal; bed posts are going to be made from steel not wood.  She's not going to give someone weapons to kill her in her own stronghold.

Lantz, it is metagaming. And kinda creepy on your end.

For that matter, the bedpost is steel as Elf said. Freaking hell dude, quit metagaming just because you think you can.

I even made a post earlier on this thread explaining that there's not a lot of wood in Forest's house for good reason.

I'm not worried about the metal bit elf, he needs a weapon, it could be a nerf post for all that it matters.

Arch your vampire wasn't subtle and he would have closed the door after forest left no matter what. He's defending Sakura because she can't defend herself and has been in that room this whole time because he is simply that protective.

And he should be able to trust Forest, because she said he'd get him something to drink. Of course, Jack needs to leave in a way that he knows won't raise any more suspicion, so he might as well go out the same door as a crow.

Connor isn't that sort of person. He doesn't leave things up to others and forgets about it. He's doing his own defense because plan A can always fail.

Connor is between Sakura and jack arch, you cannot determine success. Please edit

Jack is a vampire, and honestly whatever he did wouldn't stop him while he's in Frenzy.

Doesn't matter his state. You can only determine intent. You cannot determine success as both pc's are mine, once again edit

First, Sakura is a non-entity in this, she's in no state to even resist by your own admission.

Second, I'll change it to intent, and trust me, Connor won't like being on the receiving end of a Hunger Frenzy.

Thirdly, Frenzy literally makes a vampire stronger, faster, and in general far far deadlier. Jack's now intent on one thing, feeding, and he'll take any source he can get, but due to EX charisma, congrats, Sakura is the target. Jack can pretty much blow by Connor without much effort on this end.

You know with Elf's latest post if you guys wanted to be interrupted and join our fun, now is probably the best time to do it, progress has been slightly slow anyway could be a nice change of pace.

Metagaming much there Lantz?

Right, because Connor wouldn't know anything at all about how traditional vampires work....

Jack is a vampire, and honestly whatever he did wouldn't stop him while he's in Frenzy.

You don't get to make that decision, though.

Also, you should really stop making really powerful characters and then trying to use their power to cripple Lantz's characters without him being able to even put up a fight.

No, really. It's metagaming because why the hell didn't he do the same with Forest around the place. Even if Forest is supposedly friendly, why didn't he do this earlier if he's that protective of her? It's metagaming.

He's pretty much the Beast incarnate in Frenzy. Resilience means he pretty much can't be harmed, is far far stronger as the Beast has taken control. All he wants to do is feed. It doesn't matter what the target is, he will feed. Connor triggered a Frenzy through his actions and his, well, screaming (That shit hurts with enhanced hearing) bloody murder for no damn reason.

Because IIRC the first time he met Forest she was coming into the room to save him and Sakura from your characters attacking him, and they were walking into her house.

Yeah, again, this is coming across to me as an excuse to cripple Lantz's characters. Attacking him is fine, but RPing is meant to be fun, and a total curb-stomp is not fun.
