Necromancers

[/u]

Necromancers are vampire quick fixers, that is, they'll "heal" you (give back lost blood) for a price.
A very high price too, 25 coins per pint.
And even then, they can only heal you up to 100 BP less than your highest BP amount.
That means if you had 3,000 BP, the necromancer can only heal up to 2,900.
The Necromancers can be found in the Magic and Potion shops.

Useful Tips

[/u]

Hunters : These little blighters catch the new player unawares, to begin with before you have perception you won't see them coming, they appear as humans and only hit you when you enter a square to bite them, then they shoot you with a crossbow and run off, if you chase them they continue to run and hit you, eventually (after a lot of blood loss) they turn green and stop running and hitting you, when green you can bite them! Unless you have perception then they appear green before you enter the square to let you know they are hunters.

Text : Remember to always read the text information at the top of the grid, this tells you when someone has bitten you, or when a hunter has hit you, or if your coins have been stolen and how many.
Talking - This is an option when you click other commands, you can Talk to those on the square you are in, your text will appear at the top of the grid as will their answers if they reply.
Shouting This option comes later on with the gaining of shadows 3, you can shout and your voice carries a farther distance than just the square you are on.

Banks : You can access your money and see how much you have at any bank, not just the one you deposited it, you can withdraw your coins from any bank as well. There is also a scroll you can acquire that allows you to check your bank account balance anywhere on the grid.

Buildings : As you make your way through the city you will notice some squares have names, these names signify a pub or building belonging to someone like a castle or manor. Some buy buildings in the city for real money and name them and use them as homes. In the pubs you can purchase beer, wine and information, have fun exploring them.

Freebies : Sometimes you may come across a *bag of coins* and the portion to *take* appears, these are random items dropped on the floor for the taking, once you pick up the item it will appear in your inventory in your *my vampire* link, other things found include, scrolls, holy water, garlic spray etc.
