Let me drink blood items in game!!!

WoL is your character, that's the only reason I said your WoL, because that's who we are in the game. The fact we're done saving the world and just back to adventuring is positive yup. But that doesn't change the fact that as far as FFXIV world and story goes, you're not a vampire.

If this was an MMO based on Anne Rice book, I'd agree with you. But our characters aren't vampires, drinking blood would probably hurt us, not make us stronger, so I don't see how it could be a food buff.

Outside the MSQ and Side Content, you can RP your character anyway you like, and use /em to act like you're drinking blood instead of eating food items. But in terms of gameplay and FFXIV official lore, it makes no sense for blood vials to buff you.

drk says other wise legit has a few moves of drinking blood


beside Vincent valentine kinda goes against that and our characters could be vampires and stuff


beside there are blood pancakes which are a real food

I don't know who Vincent Valentine is, I don't play other FF games, only FFXIV, so I don't have a frame of reference there.

Also, I didn't say vampires don't exist in FFXIV, Hesperos is clearly based on vampiric tropes.

But our characters aren't vampires, there's no reason for us to be drinking blood. Outside the MSQ and whatever side content stories SE wants to have our characters do, you have all the tools to RP as a vampire.

You can make up any story you like, you're a failed Ascian experiment, or an Allagan one, or some kind of Voidsent curse, it doesn't matter. Be a vampire, dress in dark vampiric glams, use your /em. There's nothing wrong with that.
