Thelma Howcroft - can you make her a vampire?

[grody_antagonic]

Do any of you remember the sidequest in Vampire Bloodlines, where you save a girl by letting her drink your blood (or smth like that) and then she appears later on your frontdoor, wanting to be your servant as you made her (accidentally) a vampire?

I wonder now... Thelma Howcroft already thinks she's a vampire and is known to bite and drink some blood now and then from her friend in the hospital. I also learned that a vampire is created here, by letting someone drink the blood of another vampire. That would lead to a fabulous solution with Thelma. Can I make her a vampire later? I already solved her sidequest and now I'm thinking about drinking her empty, BUT I want to make sure I won't miss such a great oppurtunity if it's possible later to actually make her a vampire too. She'd just have to nibble on me for that.^^

Is it possible? Wasted potential if not.

side note - the lady in bloodline.. you end up making her a 'ghoul' not a vampire. ghouls get access to some basic vampire powers but are still 'mortal' to an extent.

as for howcroft in this game.. im not sure not far enough into it.. but im debating eating her nust for the lols.. :p

Ah yes, I couldn't remember all the details, too much time has passed since I played that masterpiece.^^
Still... Lady Howcroft has a massive opportunity to become a vampire. I really hope the devs didn't miss out on that one, yet I kinda think they did (like it feels they did miss out on many things here)...

There's a point where she asks you if you're a Vampire. Maybe you get an option to turn her if you tell her? Though, I somehow doubt it. At best I can see her becoming a Skal.

At which point does she ask that? I'm on chapter 3 atm. Will she get to me or do I have to start the conversation? Will wait for that moment and test it out.

I hope your able to make her a vampyr I would be very disapointed if not.

I got it after finishing her 2nd quest. The guy she was "with" whose name I forget was dead at the time, if it matters. The guy whose face was blown off.

I don't think you can. Of the NPC's i met so far, i would turn her just for the hilarity. I have a dark sense of humor and love irony. Shame. :(=


if they do a Vampyr 2 it should have the ability to sire other vampires that alter their course of history within the game and should be nearly open to all NPC's.

Form your own coven...send them out on missions like targeted hits...Hmmm.

there are a few NPCs that you can turn, but Thelma isn't one of them. It would have been interesting if she could be turned;.

MHO any NPC should be turnable since it is a vampire's ability (at least, after the player's character is informed on how to do it). I suppose adding that would have required an additional layer of programming that was too much work for an indie studio, to have all these potential other vampires with unique identities roaming around and interacting with the world and the player (as opposed to the generic enemy vampires that roam around later in the story, and are just another thing to fight in the streets, not unique characters).
