I take it that you don't play Ventrue then?

His fav. clan is Tzimisce, so he's not restricted. (Looked it up in the 'Fav. Clan' thread.)

On sucking them dry, in the Hollowbrook Hotel I usually feed on the male blood slaves when I need to. The only thing I don't do is to suck them dry. I don't know if it would incur a humanity loss since I always avoided killing them with feeding.

There is.

On sucking... Well, honestly I mostly play the game with Gangrel or Nossie, so I restrict myself the other way: to rats. With those two clans having animalistic leanings it feels right. I think it's what "real" Gangrel or Nossie would do. So my way of roleplaying them. Which doesn't mean that I'm rude to the Prince, oh no... Especially with Nossie, it's like, you are so great, wise, oh yesss... tell me more then. Even with Gangrel I play only animalistic, but not necesarilly all Intimidation based character. More often than not this attitude leaves my poor Outlander in his SM Apartment, and not in Skyline though... Don't know why

I got more choosy after I bit a diseased neck downtown. Wasn't funny

For Hallowbrook, I usually kill everybody there, including the bloodslaves. I see that partly as a kind of mercy killing, and partly a necessity to uphold the masquerade.

I've considered that. You know the Prince's ghouls would just come behind you and kill the surviving bloodslaves anyway, when they clean up the evidence. Plus, they've been blinded, used for food, and thoroughly traumatized... kinda hard to live a normal life after that. But I still usually find myself letting them live. I feel sorry for what they must have been through.

I think we are part of a very small minority that actually considers the moral implications of this stuff. I'm sure most gamers look at those generic humans with their eyes gouged out and go, "Oh, good! A power-up!" Like those mushrooms or whatever in SuperMario. In the PnP game, it is the storyteller's duty to let you know that each one is a real person, dragged off the street and treated like happy meals. That way, no matter how much good you do, the horror of exactly what you are now never quite escapes you.
