Wow...

First, what's this babble about "drinking blood instead of normal
fluids?" Do you eat vegetarian food? I'm sure that at least once in your
life you ate meat, and that meat must have had at least a speck of blood
on it. You drank it, you used it to continue your life, trivial though
some might call it. Also, you tend to stereotype, and generalize
vampires as a whole.

Now, I am not Blooded, but as someone who is hopefully going to be
Embraced relatively soon, I wonder why it is you think all Consanguine
are evil. Oh boy, we drink blood! Spooky! Let me break this down for you
-


You kill things. You eat them.
We kill things. We eat them.

I believe your first post about this said something like, "They want YOU
to be THEIR dinner!" Something along those lines. I imagine a Sheep King
public post along the lines of this;

Sheep Post #897
From: Sheep King Woolly
To: All Sheep
Subj: Mortals!

Those accursed mortals keep killing us and eating us for their mutton
dinner! Quick everyone, take up your arms and rebel! Rebel, I say!
They're trying to survive, how dreadful! Let's MAKE THEM ALL DEAD!!!
DEAD, I SAY!!!

***End Post***

Remind you of anything, Searoth? Say, a public post 2102? That's
basically what you said, with a little rewording from a mutton view. SO
WHAT if Consanguine drink blood? They're trying to continue their
existence, much as you attempt to continue your own.

Admittedly, there are SOME evil Consanguine. There's some evil in every
guild and class, probably Daru included. But there are also some
Consanguine who attempt to further the world, rather than spending their
time and resources bickering like fools about whether they should be
allowed to drink blood!

If you're going to tell Consanguine they shouldn't drink the blood of
creatures, then I will fully expect you never to bash again. Otherwise,
it's the exact same thing, except the Consanguine are making the corpses
into resources to continue.

How often do you kill to gain experience? At least we make good use of
corpses.
