    I swear, that bloodless debuff to rolls is why I meta-gamed and never let him get his stupid teeth near my character again. She’s like, “I mean, it’s not like things can get any weirder and this way he’s not sneaking up on anyone else and getting into a pulp like if he tried that on Lae’zel,” but I was screaming, “You EFFED all my dice rolls, you a-hole!”

      Honestly better to just let him kill you. 200g for vampire bite ability & a free face punch for that smarmy lovable asshole. Love him, but felt good.

        I let him kill me and I don’t think I got the vampire bite ability, is that through a dialogue option?

        The ability to punch him in the face, directly, without even handing him a warning, is still somehow one of my favorite moments. It is one I reloaded just to do it again. I love him so much, but it really did feel satisfying.

        Plus, when he sees your leftovers in the morning, he just goes, “Oh no, something terrible happened!” and then continues walking to his fucking tent. Motherfucker was really going to murder me and just pretend to the whole group that he didn’t know anything about it.

        Like yeah, I get it. That’s not only very like him, he’s between a rock and a hard place when it comes to his own survival. From where he’s standing, lying his immaculate ass off is the best chance he’s got. The only chance. But dude. That is a bruise he earned.

        I am curious about how they animated that, actually. Did someone really hit the actor in the face? That was pretty well done.
