another question which may end up addressed in the game itself idk, but: are aef vampires undead, ie, do characters technically die in the journey into the game if they get brought in as vampires? if not, is that an aspect of their change one could play with, ie growing sicklier and sicklier over three months and then dying, only to wake up the next night with The Hunger? ngl that'd be pretty appealing to me personally, i could have so much fun with that...

this question got away from me but i think the gist of it is in there still
