Usually it's blood; human blood is usual, but some vampires feed on sheep or cattle. I've heard of one unusual vampire who lives in cranberry sauce, and one who lives on coffee. But rodents is a new one.

That's what I am saying. The vampire undoubtedly wasn't living in peace in Daventry. He was undoubtedly feeding on humans. Unless he was somehow feeding on the blood of animals.

No one mentions it?

New clue: It's a little surprising that Sierra included me.

OK - we know you're not in KQ4.

So - might as well ask - are you in an evenly numbered KQ game? (So KQ2, KQ4, KQ6 or... shudder, KQ8).

Ahem. Are you in any of the even-numbered KQ games?

Yes

Ummmm, yes?

Whoops!

Are you in a KQ game with a number higher than 4?

Are you found in Daventry? (Both KQ2 and KQ6 take do also take place in other locations... but both start in Daventry... KQ8, I can't really speak to... it starts in Daventry and that's as far as I ever cared to go)

No

Aha! Then you must be in KQ6! Are you?

(I could be wrong, but I doubt you'd be so evil as to make us play KQ8)

He could also be in KQ6.

Because KQ6 is higher than KQ4 and also has segments that do not take place in Daventry.

So... to rule that out - are you in KQ6?

Um ... I just asked that. *points up*

Rath Darkblade wrote: ↑Fri Jan 03, 2025 10:00 pm Um ... I just asked that. *points up*

Indeed.

So to answer you both: Yes, I am in KQ6.

LOL! No idea why I read that ye asked he was in KQ8.

OK - KQ6, not on Daventry.

So probably one one of the Isle - the Isle of the Crown (the island from which the king and queen rule), the Isle of Wonder, the Isle of the Sacred Mountain, and the Isle of the Beast (formerly the Isle of the Forest)

So I will begin - Are you found on the Isle of the Beast?

Are you on the Isle of the Sacred Mountain?

(At least I remember that one. Climbing and falling and climbing and falling and...)

Yes

No

Hmm ... are you the Beast (in his garden, facing Alexander)?

It's an old story .............................................. Beauty and the Beast

Here I am, facing myself ................................... The Beast wants a woman to love him "with a pure love"; so does Alex. The Beast was cursed; so was Alex. The Beast has a ring to give his "pure love"; so does Alex. Etc.

No one mentions it? ......................................... Neither Alexander nor The Beast mention how similar their stories are

Am I right?

Yes, I am the Beast, although not quite right on the clues:

It's an old story - "Tale as old as time..."
Here I am, facing myself - Alexander is voiced by Robby Benson, who also voiced the Beast in Disney's Beauty and the Beast
No one mentions it? - In spite of this, there's no slightly fourth-wall breaking comment about it.

In retrospect, it does seem a little odd that Sierra would include a version of Beauty and the Beast so soon after the movie. It seems like ripping it off. And then to cast the Beast in Alexander's role... Then again, Sierra did it again in KQ7. Ooga Booga is basically Halloweentown from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
