Chicago ST: hey is there no way for a corax to survive a vampire embrace at all do they all die that bad?
Me: They die. Horribly.
Me: Everything I explained to Ryan, all from the book.
Me: They lose everything and die in screaming agony.
Chicago ST: so no chance of an abomination like a werewolf or a bastet?
Me: No.
Me: That's the thing. Embraced Corax do not have to be out in the sun for sunrise to kill them. They just die automatically. That's if they survive the severance from Helios and the obscenely quick drain in Gnosis.
Chicago ST: kk
And I ask myself, "What part of 'Sun-Child' and 'blessed of Helios' do you not understand?!?"
In my Corax's background, I mention that many horrible things happen to embraced Corax and that's why Lorrie was taught the Rite of the Sun's Bright Ray - it scared her so bad she could barely function without the security net of being able to sun-strike leeches at will. And in a recent thread, I had my Corax explain to a somewhat dim-witted White Howler exactly what happens to a Corax who gets the Embrace. Instant severing of the connection to Helios. Gnosis drops out of you like water from a sieve. And then, whether or not you're out in it, the sunrise makes you die in screaming agony. The Blessed of Helios do not survive the Embrace.
No, she does not have the Corax book. But when I told her that I had pretty much quoted the book verbatim, she could have shut up. But no. Someone apparently wants a Corax abomination. NOT. GONNA. HAPPEN. They die soon after Embrace. Die horribly, in fact. This should have been abundantly clear.
And who the hell wants an abomination Corax anyway? What's the fun in that? If you have no Gnosis, you can't change, and even if you could, how're you going to get fangs from a Rara Avis beak? Garou, maybe. Bastet, possibly. CORAX? A blessed of Helios becoming Childer. Fuck. That.
Abomination my tailfeathers. Ugh.
