#Lesser Vampire

[mossypidder]

First drawing I’ve done of Cosmo in about a million years. I drew him older than he would be in canon because I was in the mood. Slightly addicted to the SOL brush.

He’s nicknamed Bee/Honey Bee, because y’know how when honey bees sting, it pulls out their guts and they die (females anyway, because males don’t have stingers, but still), and he faints or gets very dizzy half the time when he sees blood, let alone actually bites. Also he tends to wear yellow. Anyway. Thoughts are not coherent and I’m gonna leave this here and go-

Theme that plays when Carlaud wanders through the corn maze stage. I always think of Shantae's scarecrow enemies when I think of this composition. Makes me want them to cameo in a Carlaud game proper. Alas, Carlaud's tale is a comic, first and foremost.

Oh yeah, here's more info on Cornpires:

You may have seen the Ricepires from that one comic I did. Lesser Vampires in general are kind of the "Dragon Quest Slimes" of the Carlaud world, so they're allowed to have goofy variants.

I will unfortunately never be normal about these two. The yearning in Ismark's eyes. The horrors in Doru's. I just want the best for this sweet golden retriever and his sad vampire boyfriend. 😭

Doru doesn’t want to admit that anything about his current predicament is something he should feel grateful for. But a fierce ache takes root inside him, and for the first time that he can remember, he’s at least somewhat glad he’s here, and that there are some idiots here with him who insist on loving him even when doing so has brought them nothing but trouble.

Read their story on Ao3!

𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐘: The devil Strahd has been slain and the mists cutting Barovia off from the world have lifted. For Ismark Kolyanovich, this is met with mixed emotions as his best friend Doru—a rebel who was turned into a vampire spawn—remains cursed. Ismark journeys to Castle Ravenloft to meet its new owner and hopefully find a cure, only to discover an eccentric cleric with big plans to rebuild Barovia and make it a home for all things living and undead.

Belial is a priest, (technically) a vampire, and a demon. What a talented boy! Character Bio below the cut!

Belial is the 68th spirit recorded in The Lesser Key of Solomon. He is ranked as a king in command of 130 legions of demons and spirits. He was the second to have fallen after Lucifer, is a priest of the Cult of Bael, and is the head of Hell’s Vices as Lord of Iniquity. With Naamah, he sired the first creature to be conceived with a hunger for blood, making him the Father of Vampires. One of his titles, “Worthless One”, was given to him as a reminder that he has no place or value in Heaven. Having carved himself into a highly proficient killer, Belial’s reputation was built from blood and violence. He is a merciless and unyielding force, which is often attributed to his association with the element of earth. He demands commitment and dedication from those who work with him. Harsh consequences are placed on his devotees that fall short of this. Belial is a known sadist, yet his bloodshed is partially motivated by his desire to not only fortify his domain in Hell but also the coregency he is a part of. As a fallen Power, his need to defend the people that he cares for is above everything. For those that he is close to, Belial is incredibly patient and protective. He is very selective with who he allows into his circle, and seeing any vulnerability from him is a sign of trust.

You're an adventurer. You've done some things in the name of good, you consider yourself a good person. You're a good person. But you're worried, worried you're going to be hurt, worried you can't save everyone. You're just a small human with a sword and armor, and you're going up agasint wyverns, and ghouls and vampires and the like. Because of this, a demon comes to you to talk.

The demon says he can help. He knows you know he's evil. But he's far from the worst evil in the mulitverse. If you had to choose between him and a tyrant dragon, or between him and an evil lich, you'd choose him every single time. He tells you he can give you the power to stop these things, if you just pledge yourself to him, you won't have to do much, just let him help you.

And for awhile you have his power. You fight with a firey sword and eldrich armor. With him, you save people you could never save before, and slain evils you never could have. There are some sacrifices, he tells you to do things, small inconsequential things, little rituals that don't mean much to you. This is fine, it's normal, adventurers have done this before.

As time goes on your demon tells you there are certain people who you can't fight, they're his freinds, and you consider that pretty ok. They can't be that bad if he works with you. This is normal and ok. Your skin is turning pale, and your eyes are changing color, but that's normal and excusable, you just tell people your family if further north then they're really from and they think you've always been like this.

You start to have freinds who stay away from you, they say your going down the wrong path. But they're the real evil ones, you need this power to do good, they're basically telling you that you shouldn't be doing good. You know your demon is evil, you're just making a sacrifice for the greater good. You're dressing more like someone who follows him now, but it's good quality armor and clothing so you don't mind. Sometimes there are people who he tells you that you can't save or can't help, you feel bad about it, really bad, but you tell yourself that there's no saving them anyway, the alternative would be not having the power to save them. This is normal and ok.

Eventually he starts telling you that you need to kill things for him. You assume they're people who need to he killed, and don't think about it often. This demon may be a demon but he's done so much good for you, his enemies can't be good people. He takes you to his realm a lot to show you off, to show how good you've been, you honestly feel kind of proud. You're too pale to pass as human now, and your eyes are a deep red, even your teeth are getting sharper, you just say your from an uncommon race when people ask. None of your old freinds talk to you. You know you have to be doing good, if this were wrong there would be a lot of evil you'd have to face in yourself.

You've relocated to the demon's plane now to live with him. He sends you out to other realms to kill people for him, you don't have time to ask who they are, he even let's you consume the blood of the people who you kill, it makes you feel good when you do. When you're not wearing the armor gives you, he just has you wear a loincloth and jewels. He pets your head sometimes and it feels good, and he shows you off to the other demons and you feel nice and pretty. He'll carve little symbols into your white skin, and has you wear a little color for him, this is normal, you're happy to serve him. He does what he wants with your body, but you feel ok about it, you don't have to worry about moral choices anymore, your demon always tells you what's the right decision, and all you have to do is go along with it.

Ok give me your favorite (or one of your favs) iwtv character, one of worst things they've ever done, and your best PR statement defending them!👀

oh god this is so scary. defending these chars will get u killed on twitter. promise to not hurt me

anyway my favorite character is louis and i guess the worst thing hes done is either being a pimp or terrorizing the gay san francisco population.

your honor if i may, louis had to take care of his family and being a pimp was the most reliable means available for his circumstances!!! plus he did his best to elevate their qualities of life alongside him as he went up the social ladder!

and uh. the san francisco thing. well your honor he was coping badly about the loss of claudia and was using these men as a means to self medicate (by giving them drugs which he'd take back into himself when draining them) he was on a bender he simply didn't mean it 🥺 if he tried to do this anywhere else he probably would've been killed it was a matter of safety 🥺🥺🥺

Lestat in The Thing Lay Still

[manmilkers]

We are supposed to believe, Armand, capable of controlling a theatre of +100 people without breaking a sweat or any visible strain, stopping time, mind wiping other vamps, able to withstand sunlight, wasn't capable of stopping Santiago, who is removing what Armand's perceives as his one obstacle to Louis, Claudia, and Madeline, a vampire Armand did not want made? But Lestat, who goes off script to align himself with the accused and speak in the defendants favor and who cannot control a dozen inebriated soldiers without bursting blood vessels and bleeding from the ears and not being able to stand upright after and is +2 centuries younger/less powerful than their leader had the more active role in the orchestrating/controlling the lynch mob- trial? There is an obvious difference in power here that belies the narrative being spun as well as onscreen actions being taken by each of them, that Lestat showed up for vengeance and Armand “could not prevent it” 🙄, as well as a disparity in what we know these characters motivations are. Both of these people have an obvious pattern of taking fairly extreme measures when they perceive Louis as spurning them for someone/thing else or being more taken with another. Only one of them has ever forcibly forbade Claudia from leaving Louis and the other had control of the coven that killed her.
