Second Life Role Playing

In Second Life there are many opportunities for Role Playing. Old West, Victorian Era, Domination/Submission and others. One of them is based on Vampires. The players in the game say their interest is similar to other super natural entertainment. Dracon Dyszel, ‘Clan Voice’ says, “Tell me do we all not have an affinity for the mythical?” Information from Bloodlines indicates there are five objectives in the game. Become a Vampire, by being drained and then replenishing your blood to full capacity. Increase your Status by collecting souls, that is, being the first to bite new vampires. Accumulate blood wealth, purchasing from Bloodlines or collecting from victims with a spike. Win honors by attaining great numbers of fresh bites in a 24 hour period. Stay alive by regularly drinking blood from any source. Daily needs are a quarter of a liter of blood with a maximum capacity of 5 liters. Math tells us a vampire can go 20 days before being cursed. Players get credit for a soul by being the first to bite the victim and that victim purchasing a HUD from Bloodlines for $L599. “It can be used as erotic RP for some — others as a sense of a family. We don’t encourage or discourage [the erotic aspect].” reported Dracon. If you are intrigued by the mystical melding of science fiction and vampire lore, check out Bloodlines on Liquid Designs (121, 126, 238 )

As a role player of SL Bloodlines I felt compelled to leave a comment.
I love the Bloodlines RP. I think the creators did an amazing job. They are always on top of things to make sure Bloodlines is running smoothly.Constantly coming out with newer products to advance the game.

I have made several great friends in the game. Everyone is there for their own reasons, but while role playing are united by them same goals. There is a sense of family. That is what my clan is to me. It is a great group of people, and very fun.

The creators of Bloodlines, Mars Bracken and Lyle Maeterlinck have done an amazing job with their Vampire RP game “The Thirst”. This game gives Second Life residents the opportunity to become a vampire, earn medals of honor, vampire status, and blood ranking. This game is not only challenging and fun, but a great way to meet people in Secondlife. Since I have joined Bloodlines, I have not only had a great time trying to achieve honors, and ranking, put have joined an amazing family in “The Hellfire Clan”. Joining a clan and taking on minions to guide through the Bloodlines gives you a very rewarding feeling. When you see your minions adapt to the game and begin collecting souls you see the rewards in this pyramid affect soul collection. Bloodlines will be coming out with new products in the near future and we all look forward to the growing success, and the expansion of the Bloodlines Family.

Van Helsing where are you?

1. Usually you get bitten unaware of the fact that you are now part of bloodlines and that you already have lost your soul (restorable by a potion L$249.
2. Every vampire in the system knows you are bitten and knows by who you where bitten. And will if you want to join them gladly sire you after you buy the potion and then introduce you to their clan.
3. Only when you teleport to the store you find out that once bitten you loose your soul prior to joining the game.
4. When you feel that is tacky and you are made part of the game without informed consent and demand your soul to be restored you get first laughed at. Then lied to about the functions of the hud “its sort of a radar and does not register you are bitten” and after persisting showing from your logs that a vampire can not only seen that you are bitten but also by who. They take affirmative action to remove you from their system and database.
5. After you tell a friend who got bitten months ago and is possibly interested in joining she gets a restore potion and stays registered but is friendly asked not to tell anyone since they then have to go round handing out free potions to everyone who got bitten in this manner.

To me that can only lead to this conclusion they know its tacky but have no Interest in changing their ways since its good money that is earned this way.
