Not at all really, haha.



I use black liquid latex in my costume, actually.  I would be very surprised, however, if it is anyone's fetish.

Help with research question?

If you were going to kill or repel Red Court Vampires (both offensively and defensively), what acoutrements would you carry around?

Thanks!

I'm trying to figure out how this is any different than normal.

It's Wednesday?

Thanks, Shecky...so this stuff (garlic, holy water, etc.) is good for Rampires as well as Blampires?  One place I read says sunlight is good for half Rampires fighting the Red side---but Rampires go about in the light, right...or only when they've got their human skins on?

Thanks for the help!

You know, Myyrdn my boy, of the three of us you're the only one who'll fit in the Gimp Suit.

Hey Shecky.

We got a candidate.

Oh, didn't we tell you?  We stitched four together, so y'all don't have to be apart.  *runs for the hills*

Aw, crud - somehow I read "Black" instead of "Red". My bad.

Hard to keep them all straight!  No worries.

This is my problem...I can't find a whole lot of info about what does Rampires in except 1) shooting their heads off or 2) cutting/shooting abdomens open and draining blood sac

Wonder what that group that Martin & Susan were part of in South AMerica (what was the name, again?) used other than guns & knives to fight off the Red Court....pertinent to this topic b/c am trying to figure out my costume for the Urban Fantasy party...

I'm less worried about keeping it a surprise then being un-authentic  :D hence the call for help!  ;D

Shecky, if he got the visual of you and I stitched together in a super gimp suit chasing him, I'll bet he'll never quit running.

You kidding?  I'll just run till I can't see you all anymore.  Y'all won't be physically ABLE to chase me in the super gimp suit.

I think

They can be burned with holy water I think.  At Bianca's party, didn't Susan throw the jar of holy water at the light or something, and cook them with the holy steam?
