Our GM had a real thing for vampires...it started off when we where hired
to geek a guy who turned out to be a vampire, and turned out to be in a
big vampire cult, which turned out to especially want our blood
(well...after we toasted this guy...eventually *grin*) So we spent months
ascensing everyone and anyone who hired us, worked with us...or even
walked past us on the street! We got pretty good at killing
vampires...you know, blowing off their brain stem to create major tissue
damage. I had an adept with missile mastery who never went anywhere
without a dozen wooden stakes, and a bag of saw-dust!

I guess our GM was just pissed off at how we geeked anything he sent
against us in the first two rounds...at least these guys stood a chance
*grin*
