Dracula could do some kind of mind control whammy, so I think it's fair game as a generic vampire power. Easy to overdo, though.
It's considered one of the standard vampire powers in a lot of the stuff I read.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Including D&D, FWIW.

True. And in the Vampire: the Masquerade system, it's a basic trait. You can just blow XP to really ramp it up and turn everyone into thralls of your will!
(Okay, sometimes I miss the vampire LARP. What?)

I used to have big plans for hypothetical thralls of my will. Right now I can think of no higher ambitions for thralldom than getting Ryan to go potty.

Liese! Our house is Athens is for rent (and sale), but it's a 3br 2ba house, and on the higher end for Athens rents, so I don't know that it would suit your friend. It's more a "family with kids" house than a "single musician guy" house.
And we are around and flexible this Saturday and would love to see you!

Yeah, I think he's looking more for "room" than "house" but I will mention it to him. I would also caution that I have no idea about this kid and am not in any way advocating for him! I think he's pretty into eastern religion, which for a white son of former hippies, I'm thinking may mean a certain amount of recreational pharmaceuticals.
Yay, Saturday! What would be convenient for you and Steph? Lunch? Graeters? I can take this to email or F2F if we need to!
