1) The fact it's a melee weapon & not a ranged makes me believe it's probably a Syringe type device. MC jabs the needle & injects the substance. But it's never made clear so I'm not gonna argue either way. I still think it's too much hassle to add another component to the situation. I prefer Pollen Blood from MC one way or another.
- We have "Tranquilizers" I don't see where it says "syringes" and the context of using it a melee weapon suggests it's probably more more likely a club with a "tranquil" enchantment (or a solid needle/dart that is coated in a tranquilizing poison) than a Hypodermic Needle... Damagus01 already pointed out the Tranquilizer angle #42,391, which I had forgotten BTW
- Given Tinkerers latest revision (aka gnome patch) I'd guess staying on Patreons good side is high on his list of priorities.
- You suggest unappetising Blood packs as a way to slip them an aphrodisiac!! you don't see the flaw in that? Special Pastries are Appetising & Morish, if they weren't, how easy do you think it would be to tempt the girls to eat them??
Ghouls are in the grey zone with some sources placing them as Undead and others not (personally I'd say they aren't Undead, my favourite interpretation is they are corrupted living creatures), Tinkerers version seems to suggest he thinks the same, seeing as the Vamps seem to kill them, turning them into zombies.

The more I think on it the more I like the thought of the MC offering his own veins to the Vamps (It's more intimate and surely the "strength"/"purity" of his blood has to be more appealing than that of some low life bandit), then dosing himself with potions to affect them in different ways...
Personally I don't care about minions for the Party, I'd rather use them as "ferries" (leave stuff like Bandits tied to a tree for them to collect later and transport to relevant locations) or maybe have them go on raids to capture Bandits or certain resources themselves (have a random bandit appear in the dungeons every week or so).
I'd never say no to more Females and a Dhampir could be interesting, BTW so could a range of other "halloween" girls to populate Castle Tepes... "werewolf" in particular![]()
2) Agreed.
3) I suggest an idea based on what I know. I also agreed that you're version is also an appealing idea. Again no argument here I just wanted to explain my side.
I too prefer to idea of Ghouls being corrupted being or there own species all together. However it depends on the media. Most media has it that Ghouls are;
1) Corpse-Eating Zombies (undead)
2) Humans corrupted by eating corpses or blighted flesh (living)
3) There own species, either as a type of not-undead corpse-eater (Necrophage) or Djinn (Ghūl).
You could argue that living creatures corrupted into Ghouls could exist in a half-life state of not-undeath in which case they would be a type of undead. Like Vampires are a type of undead, which I personally refer to as Immortal Undeath. As you said, gray area.
Well FunFuntomes wants me toreupload the Dhampir idea I had. It's a bit rough in places but feel free to give it a look once I re-upload in a bit.
