I'm gonna pass on the hypnosis and such, since Zero is really resilient to that kind of thing. He even resisted when his sire tried to bind him to her will, so. Also he'd have to have a death wish if he tried to feed from/bite Zero. :')

My other character (Kazuki, festumkept) similarly is very well guarded when it comes to mental/mind related things. Undecided with the feeding stuff atm.

Yuuki canonically can't be hypnotized because she has the ability to do that to other vampires (she can be tricked by a delusion, but is usually aware that what she's surrounded by isn't real), so for Yuuki I'd say probably not! When it comes to blood though, if it seemed like he might need it she might share. She has a harem more like two boyfriends and two children and a babysitter who might object or want to intercede if she tries though. Or at the very least would come running if they smelt her blood. Her blood has some magical properties to it as well in that those who consume it become stronger and basically have power-ups.

On the flip side if she gives someone her blood that gives her a bit of a connection to that person, and she has the ability to rip her blood out from their veins, etc. (BUT SHE WOULDN'T DO THAT. PROBABLY. It's just a thing in case it's important and such)

For my other character Kija, I'm fine if he was to drink from him. Kija wouldn't offer it up willingly though. As for his hypnotism, I'm tossed on if it would work or not? In canon, he has the divine protection of all his previous predecessors. For instance, someone wanted to possess him but they weren't able to do it at all and admitted as such. They said that the divine protection he had was too powerful. Basically, he has a bunch of sacred ghosts that are constantly chilling around him that he's unaware of. So I guess my question is, knowing that, do you think hypnotism would work, or do you think the sacred/holy aura of protection he has against things like possession would to repeal that too? Thoughts?

Regardless...! While Kija is human, he has a white dragon claw for his right arm, and the blood of a dragon from heaven also flows in his veins.

Maybe, it's not so much as possessing, as it is actively enforcing his own will on another person to control their thoughts and actions. And/or drive them mad.

As far as feeding and other interactions go? It all depends on if that protection would be considered holy or not? Dracula is a classic vampire, and as such he carries around quite a few weakness and aversions to things considered sacred (salt, iron/cold steel, holy artifacts, blessed/running water, consecrated earth ect.) That's not to say he isn't powerful though, and knows a thing or two about magic that he might be able to get around it?

[aiffection]

Ai, like Yuuki, would be impossible to hypnotize as it is also something she can do. She'd also offer blood if he needed it, though would be more likely to point him to the clinic where blood is offered (because she can be fussy sometimes) and has a protective family who wouldn't like it. Also all the blood stuff that applies to Yuuki, applies to Ai too since Yuuki is Ai's birth mother.

Soushi (festumborn) will be harder to manipulate with hypnosis as he has pretty good mental shields and getting into his head will be extremely difficult. I'd be okay with feeding (not that Soushi would offer willingly) but his blood would probably taste strange considering he's not entirely human.

Velvet (oligomania) has no mental shields so hypnosis is possible - but she'll be pissed and violent afterwards so that's a thing. Also available to feed from but again, not human - she's a demon so it might taste off.

[trademark_skull]

Emizel: Probably not very edible with pure demon blood, nor does he like people biting him either. But Dracula could try..? Hypnotism might work though since any ability Emizel would have to resist it is probably underdeveloped due to mental/emotional age. But only for minor things.

Gladion: (type_edge) Edible and susceptible to hypnotizing, though he will try to put up a fight anyway. His pokemon won't be though, at least one of them already is mentally heightened and two more are man-made.

[bifroster]

Jane is an ordinary human, but she's intelligent and quite skeptical, so while he can hypnotize her, she is going to put up quite a fight! As for feeding, she won't appreciate being bit, but if he asks her politely, she might offer him her wrist so he doesn't starve. He might be one of the most iconic villains ever, but a guy's gotta eat.

[farseen]

Regarding feeding and hypnotism-- if these things ever come up:

Shin-Ah is from the same canon as Kija, who commented earlier in this post, and also has the blood of a heavenly dragon in his veins. While Dracula is a classic Vampire (I know the lore very well), I don't necessarily want to open the veritable Can of Worms that comes with messing with Sacred Dragon Blood and Vampires. It might be Bad.

For Hypnotism, Shin-Ah may be somewhat susceptible to a degree-- although I think he would need to have reason to allow such a thing first. Shin-Ah has canonically allowed the ghost of an ancient ancestor borrow his body for a day, and can see the spirits of the deceased to some degree that isn't elaborated too much.

All this said, Shin-Ah is also a softie. He may end up sympathizing and trying to help Dracula if given reason to-- if only because he might see Dracula as being unfairly treated due to his own colored experiences and naivety. This could go in.... interesting directions. :|

[onlydoubts]

bodhi rook (callsigning) is completely susceptible to hypnosis, he has no mental barriers against this kind of thing.

his blood isn't anything special, normal human blood - and dracula is more than welcome to feed off it. by force, but he may offer it willingly. if it came to that.

[minenameis]

I'm totally up for Frog being potentially hypnotised/vampired on, though he does carry a sacred sword and will no doubt use it if he finds himself in a sticky situation! Also if Dracula does feed from him for whatever reason he might recognise that he does in fact have human blood despite looking like a frog, since he's really a cursed human. :Db

[tacticalvisor]

All of this is fine for 76/tacticalvisor. His blood may taste a little different? As he's been canonically enhanced to superhuman levels via Mysterious Government Program. Nothing supernatural, just more durable than the average joe. (I'd say something about being a steak dinner vs most people's burger-blood, if that makes sense.)

[holdsodear]

I should probably do this, hello, yolos in and all that-

holdsodear (Mrs. Bradley) is an ordinary human and definitely a susceptible type, so this is fine! If you have any specific thoughts/questions, feel free to PM!
