![]() ![]() It doesn't look very much like a tick actually does, no, which is a tad disappointing to me as a life long tick fan, but sometimes it's the thought that counts, and the thought here is that a big tick ate somebody's head and started steering their body around like an even better head crab. Better because it's also a vampire and an aristocrat. Here we have our first example of what seems to be the more "dominant" vampiric race those that evolved from mosquitoes. ![]() Their basic design is fairly simple, just a ghoulish humanoid with very large, dark eyes and a beaky nose, but it's by far my favorite thing in the game. Is it strange that a human with only vague and minimal insect-like features can sometimes look so much cooler to me than a full blown insect? Insects really are my very favorite thing, but I guess I'm so used to them that a lot of insect monsters end up feeling kind of mundane without some odd twist, and it can be a lot more fun to find those cool, charming insect traits hidden away in a totally different creature.Īnyway, this little guy only ranks as a "manservant" of the mosquitoes, but he's also the only one of the encountered outside of their domain - carrying an invitation you will absolutely require to enter the Courtyard. Yes, these are vampires who have to invite you inside, which is such a hilariously appropriate twist for "high society" vampires that I'm surprised I haven't seen it more often.Īnother you can encounter wandering beyond the Crimson Court itself, it's hard to say what sort of arthropod this is actually supposed to be. It has a face more like a cockroach, earwig or beetle than anything else, but with raptorial forelimbs and a larviform body.

Whatever the case, the Chevalier is said to be almost mindlessly bestial, so I guess those powdered wigs are secured really tightly.Įxclusive to the courtyard proper, a couple of the higher-level vampuitos are not only a whole lot larger than their manservants, but get both a (sort of) "human" form and a "bloodthirsty" form. ![]() ![]() The bloodthirsty esquire is quite cool, with its far longer proboscis and mantis-like raptorial forelimbs, both befitting a vampire clearly so interested in swordplay. ![]()
