sjghdfghd Peter pls, Astarion is easily the least Scary and Cool of my characters you've met (though Arid and the Operator admittedly set a high bar LOL). And yes, so glad to be in a game with you again!!! I can't wait to see what delightful new flavor of fucked up CR our two will have this time <3

Normally I'd say that Astarion would want to scope out a potential victim before biting them (and preferably choose someone who's asleep for his first bite), buuuut if Peter seemed helpless enough/sufficiently unaware of his surroundings, Astarion might take a bite! It'd also mean I wouldn't have to bullshit a way for Astarion to improvise Thieves' Tools to break into someone's apartment lol

...I really like that idea the more I think about it :D Could make for interesting interactions when they "meet" for real some other time. Though I keep imagining Peter seeing the puncture scars on Astarion's neck and being like, ":0000 Did something bite you, too?" 😂

Also, out of curiosity: is Paimon present with Peter here?

EDIT: Disregard last question, I just saw your CR meme comment!

As I roll back into OOC things five days later (where the hell does the time go???) but YES I am very excited for the plans that have unfolded since, for a Halloween Night Bite!! I should also let you know that Peter will be hitting up Vanessa Ives afterwards with Concerns the next morning when he notices any evidence of it (help I think I got bitten by something on my neck???) which is going to lead into her informing him about some dangers of supernatural creatures.... and no doubt being Highly Pissed Off if she ever finds out it's Astarion (Vanessa is Peter's Spooky Mom here LMAO). So I was laughing when her mun told me that Vanessa and Astarion are already going to have a Bad Encounter during the event.... oops, if she ever finds out about him being the vamp to bite Peter, it could be some extra fuel to the fire there :)))

Actually on that note I should check, would a bite mark be the only effect on Peter from Astarion / are there any others I should know about! I'll definitely give things some time to play out, but I figured I would start looking towards that future there, too.

And yes he's got literal demons with him here! Which, Paimon's not as much of a Direct Presence here, with the nerfing, but could potentially add some fun spooky flavour in other capacities, as he's definitely still able to poke his head out from time to time / influence things on a certain scale. He'll probably be Watching all this and Absorbing It....

Yessss, Vanessa's player already hit me up about these plans, actually! Leave it to Astarion to piss off the Mother of Vampires with his first ever victim LOL! I'm so pumped for this :D

As for effects of the bite, Peter should feel woozy and weak for about a day afterwards, but suffer no other ill effects besides the wound itself :|b
