VN Ren'Py Completed Rebirth [Ep.1-5 All in One] [LikesBlondes]

[Ka1tzer]

Is Zephyr in direct service to all the Archons, to the bald muscular one, or to the princeps (and/or the quaestor)?

I'm finding it weird that it seems like every power figure has access to her services, and yet she is never available for Sharon and the MC to be used as a messenger.

At the start of the story, she was presented in a way that made it seem like she served the muscular bald archon (forgot his name). But she continues to appear on behalf of other actors and now I'm confused.

Surely the princeps could command whoever he wished for whatever he wanted I guess, but it still seemed strange.

 

[GrannyJuices]

well that's weird, w/o mod it continues onwards but with mod it ends when mc talks to sharon.

either contact zoey and ask help or play from start at your save w/o wt-mod until you reach end and make save to continue on ep 5.

Righto I'll do that then. Appreciate the help blud, have a good one

There are apparently contradictory statements in game about who Zephyr reports to, which certainly leads to some confusion.

In ep1-3 we only encounter the Zephyr running messages for Marcius. In ep1 Andrew refers to her as "The archon's zephir".

But in ep3 when the Zephyr is delivering Marcius' invitation to meet, she states: "I am a messenger under the auspices of the princeps."

In ep4-5 the Zephyr is running messages for the Princeps, and she apparently has direct access to his quarters. So I believe the Zephyr has always been in service to the Princeps.

It's not entirely clear why she was running messages for Marcius, but not other Archons. Initially it was probably because at that stage other powerful people weren't aware of MC/Sharon, Marcius is the only one who wants to send messages to them. Alternatively it may be because Marcius was the most powerful Archon in the city so had more privileges.

If it's the former, and all Arcohn's have access to the Zephyr's services, then Sharon should too. Perhaps she does, but simply doesn't know. Sharon doesn't seem to know much about how the bosses run/do things.

I don't mean to start any trouble, but I suppose it could be oversight/mistake on the author's part. She started as Marcius' messenger and was then "retconned" (without an actual retcon on the initial 3 chapters) to be the princeps messenger.

Thing is that, assuming she's trustworthy in regards to how discreet she is (which shouldn't be assumed by anyone who isn't naive), she'd be a great help in some time saving scenarios in which characters go back and forth from the main city to Scottstown. But as of now she has been presented as a "tool" that others have and can use, but not the MC/Sharon.

Here's another question that has been bothering me a bit even though it's (probably) completely inconsequential:

Why is the quaestor fat?

I mean, I believe it's stated that the vamps bodies can't really undergo changes no matter how much exercise (or lack thereof) they do. And yet we have the quaestor being fat and Marcius being built like a tank.

The state of the person's body when they get turned is the one they keep for eternity? ...that'd kinda suck. Especially since I'd assume that during the process of turning, what with how much the MC and Laurie were sweating and in pain, it wouldn't be that much of a stretch to think that the process itself would alter the body of the person undergoing the process.

What happens when both carmen and laurie are marked?

What happens when both carmen and laurie are marked?

IIRC nothing
mommy doesn't bite the same girl 2x though so maybe it 'protects' her from mommy?
so it may be an as yet unutilized mechanism.

Guys...it's a PTOLEMY script/game...along with the other 2 devs/writers in this 'team'...stuff like this is the norm unfortunately. Could be real top tier games if not for dodgy plots, suspect writing at times and very rushed nonsensical plot endings. All their games are the same. You know what you get from them at this point if you have been around the AVN scene a while. Better to just not question these things.

Here you have to understand two things. Tradtional vampire lore and VTM Lore. Keeping the body you had at the time of your turning (this includes hair, facial hair etc etc) is very standard lore across the mythological genre (VTM exempted depending on the actual sub species of vampire, example being the Nos)

Hi

Everything is ready. Just one problem we noticed in the testing phase.
Some of the renders, rendered in 1500 by 750 resolution rather than 1920 by 1080. No idea why. Maybe a fault with the batch software. No clue.
Fortunately there seem to be only 6 renders that have been messed up. I'll redo these manually, and the update will be ready to go.

Best regards

yeah that and she charges a boon a year to be on retainer plus 2 to 5 bags or equally worth of fresh blood per service provided!
that`s one expensive messaging system, Sharon is either being Cheap or financially responsable depending on who you ask and how long they expect to live!
I mean if its forever you should save up every penny in the 1tst 200 years, after a couple od decades you can live off your savings and the earnings of your investments!

Yes. I know Rebirth's world is more like an interpretation of "vampire world" but if you are interested in details in official lore take a look at official

Physiology

Vampires change considerably after the Embrace. When a vampire is Embraced, their internal organs atrophy, and almost all their bodily fluids are replaced by blood. Vampires use blood (also called

) for a variety of purposes; blood replaces most bodily fluids, so vampires will sweat blood and cry blood under certain circumstances. Blood is also used to get up and move; every night, vampires expend a certain amount of blood to rise.

In addition, vampires can use blood to enhance their physical attributes and use supernatural powers called

Once Embraced, vampires become immortal and are locked into a form of stasis. Apart from wounds, vampires are restored to their condition at the time of Embrace every time they rise up for the night. This physical condition eventually extends to their mindsets as well; old vampires find it very hard to learn new things. While mostly incapable of eating food, vomiting it up almost instantly, vampires who have trained to do so can hold down food for longer before they must expel it from themselves, therefore keeping their façade of

I don't know if it's just me who thinks this waking Ancient story is being dragged to Babylon. Gone are the times of MC acquiring new skills, using them in the story, becoming stronger than everyone, etc. Carmen is still a blessing though.

100% agree. It's getting old and boring.

It's not entirely clear why she was running messages for Marcius, but not other Archons. Initially it was probably because at that stage other powerful people weren't aware of MC/Sharon, Marcius is the only one who wants to send messages to them. Alternatively it may be because Marcius was the most powerful Archon in the city so had more privileges.

Personally I see Zephir more like an equivalent of Hermes (the Greek god).
Due to her ability to find whoever she need to find, and to enter wherever she need to enter, she's The Messenger. Whoever that have a "rank" high enough and need to send an official message will rely on her services. Therefore strictly speaking she don't works for someone, nor is she someone messenger. She works for the Vampires and are their messenger in this part of the world.
As for Andrew, he described her as Marcius messenger because at this time Sharon never had to receive a message from someone else than him. Therefore he was truly believing that it was who she is.

If it's the former, and all Arcohn's have access to the Zephyr's services, then Sharon should too. Perhaps she does, but simply doesn't know. Sharon doesn't seem to know much about how the bosses run/do things.

Well, it's pretty obvious that all she know about Archon's role come from her own interactions with them and what she witnessed during her none-life. After naming her Archon, Marcius should have taught her, or asked someone to taught her, what was her duty and responsibilities. But like he strongly disliked her, he didn't bothered to do it. After all, it's the best way for him to see her fell, and then to have her crawl in front of him.
What of course can't be the reason, he wouldn't have tried a shady move if he had planed to just wait and see.


Of course, all this is more than certainly just post-playing rationalization. But well, for once that there's way to explain some of the inconstancy due to the total lack of lore building prior to the starts of the story, let's go with it.


Edit:

I don't know if it's just me who thinks this waking Ancient story is being dragged to Babylon. Gone are the times of MC acquiring new skills, using them in the story, becoming stronger than everyone, etc. Carmen is still a blessing though.

Or simple they scratch them late, because the realised that the numerial LI4 variable, don't add anything to their ideas/vision and the whole pathing (if they have any) for LI4 is enough.
