Help[Games] Re: Question
in reply to a message by Cyrie
I say, do whatever you feel fits best with your story. If you want to change the prompts, follow it partially, or not at all, it's all right -- the story is all yours, and I'm sure it'll still be just as interesting to see an unorthodox choice in the storyline. You might have to play fast and loose with the prompts later on if you deviate far from it, though, but that's allowed, if you prefer it.
Mutatis mutandis. Si non confectus, non reficiat.

Round 5
Past King: Airdan Blackfern (Deceased)
Regent: Soora Wolfriver
Rankin Icefrost
Queen: Enola Wolffern
Crown Prince: Efren Blackriver
Prince and Princess: Ári Blackriver and Alaia Wolffern
Of the illustrious Royal House of: Ayen
In the Kingdom of: Tavaraen
In the middle of the night, far to the north, the scouts became an army. More vampires had come over the mountains than had been scouting around Keenor and an attack was their plan all along.
The attack was quick and unexpected. The northerners barely had time to fight back. It was no surprise to either side when they lost, but a few soldiers managed to escape the battle fields undetected and ride south to warn the others.
Victory by victory the vampires worked their way down the Southlands. All the people of Odros, regardless of species, came together to fight the war. A few diplomatic water sprites were even convinced to drown any vampires who came near the rivers and lakes. Not everyone was well trained, most had had no warning until after the fightng started, but everyone at least tried.
And it could have been successful. The effort was there even if the skill was not and the vampires were outnumbered. But they had an advantage that went beyond numbers or training. Their dead weren't dead.
There are only a few ways to kill a vampire and the vast majority of vampires who "died" during the war were not killed in these ways. No matter how many vampires the others thought they killed there were always more. More than there should have been, more than they thought there would be. Or so it seemed. These supposedly extra and unaccounted for vampires were really the same ones who had been killed and had now come back to life.
It wasn’t entirely a secret that the vampires were lmost impossible to kill, but not many people knew and it was easily forgotten in battle when the only thing anyone had time to focus on was not dying. By the time it was remembered it was too late. Too many had died, too many cities had fallen, the vampires were too close to victory. Not even knowing the most important fact about their enemy could save them.
