I've posted (a whole sentence!), but like everyone it seems it's a little busy for me at the moment. I don't think I'll be able to post almost all weekend, but hopefully it'll all get better after that.

The masquerade of murder returns! A new game of Vampires Amongst Us has begun. Unmask the killers, trust no one, and try to survive the night. Find out more and sign up now!
Hope so Vekky as I'm really wanting to get things rolling between them two. On that note I think I will post up the next section of the Black Pyramid.

10 toughness is to much I think... plus all the other awesome stats he's just far to over powered.
What? I endeavoured to make him below average for all but toughness, with the aim that although he is pretty harmless he is also practically invulnerable...
Oh, I see. The numbers in brackets apply only to when Mad Jack, his other personality, is in control; and, if you read carefully, you will see that that is a very rare occurance.

Nobody should have Toughness 10 except Vlad von Carstein(cos he's wearing the Carstein Ring).
That aside, I think it's too easy for your character to flip and turn into the overpowered Mad Jack if the amulet is all there is to it. And if your character is 'harmless but practically invulnerable' then he'll be very much like Zosz, who serves more like a deus ex machina than an actual character. I don't think we have space for more than one Zosz, TBH.

A deus ex machina is 'a plot device whereby a seemingly inextricable problem is suddenly and abruptly solved with the contrived and unexpected intervention of some new character, ability, or object.'(copied from Wikipedia)
Asides from Zosz being new, he pretty much fits the bill. So admittedly 'deus ex machina' is a poor analogy; I should simply call Zosz a plot device instead.

... Ok, I didn't think it would be easy....
I thought that the character could open up some good opportunities for comic relief, a detailed sideplot and perhaps sometimes a problem to overcome...
But perhaps I am missing the point. Perhaps TVC is not about what individual characters can contribute to a plot that has only vague boarders, with as many laughs as possible along the way, and the odd bad guy - much like what I write. Perhaps it is about a group of characters working in tangem, rather than tangent, to achieve a common goal, against which a similiar yet smaller group of characters are striving - much like the laughless, yet brilliant, Lord of the Rings (although we don't actually get the point of view of Sauron & Co. at any point).
As I haven't actually read any of the previous chapters (so much to read! At last I know how intimidating it feels...), I honestly have no idea.
P.S. On the light of the previous point, it is also probably best that I don't join in until the sequel, if there is one.

There will be a sequel and to be honest it probably is best to wait for it as we are wrapping things up at the moment.
@ Nightwere - that last post of yours was bordering on the homoerotic.......

There's nothing to stop you joining the sequel, but I think that DoN is probably planning to set up a separate recruitment thread for that... and lots of stuff is changing too, I believe.
I'd just save your current character, keep it somewhere, and then have it ready for the sequel.

DoN you scoundrel. Sleeping around with your poor, demented brother's wife. I'm ashamed!
That's exactly why I banned you!
Oh, speaking of said wife, Kraskor is sort of sitting in front of her dumbly... perhaps he should meet his sire again...? I'm sure it'd be a nice reunion.

Ah no - I should mention at this point Vekarin and the Duke need to be left alone.
@Harland - Once I have finalised the idea for the sequel I will give everyone who wants to sign up feedback then.

They're somewhere in DoN's nether regions.
Seriously, I'm still waiting for the damn plot to move forward. So it seems Vekky and the Duke are supposed to have an EPIC DUEL, can we get started right now?

Patience people! I was recovering from the worse hangover I have had since I was 17
I will post now, and hopefully if Vekky can post a fair bit as well we can get this cracking on.

Sigh* I blame others... I was going to unvail peter to the council when they were all in one place and prepairing the final elements of the various armies, it was gonna be real nice 
.
But I suppose this will have to do....
BTW the metal was actually very hot it was simply burning your nerves so it felt cold instead its a cool thing i picked up from... The punisher! I think... anyway I would appreciate it if you let me finish the description of the ritual i just wanted you to reflex and explain how peter was feeling which i didn't feel was my place to describe.... but its up to you.
