[ WP ] Going to a casual Vampire LARP , you discover that one player is an actual vampire .

Despite every insistence on the contrary... this was lame. 
 
 Not knowing what else to wear - parlour LARP at least did n't require heavy armour - she had worn a black shirt and dark jeans, and some make-up to give her pallor. Unsurprisingly, she was not alone in this choice, but it did make her feel better that she had n't gone full goth like some of the other players. 
 
 Every person had some dark, mysterious backstory - passive-aggressive hinting that they were n't normal. Of course they were n't, *they were supposed to be vampires*. 
 
 She found a booth, occupied only by one person, and pushed herself in. Said person was another girl who looked relatively normal, in a long-sleeved sweater instead of dress shirt, and was browsing her phone. 
 
 `` Uh... hi.'' 
 
 `` If you're hinting a mysterious backstory on me, just spill it so I can pretend to feel sorry for you.'' 
 
 She could have felt offended, but after nearly an hour of this it was refreshing from Sweater Girl. `` Um, nope. I'm new to this. Got turned a few days ago by a stupid ex-boyfriend. None of my friends knows where he's gone, so I'm hoping this vampire-meet could shed some light. Figuratively.'' 
 
 Sweater Girl paused in her phone scrolling, and she actually looked interested. `` Blood-parent link?'' 
 
 `` Too young, and I do n't want to wait that long for it to develop.'' 
 
 Now Sweater Girl put her phone down and turned to face her. `` No psychic calls?'' 
 
 `` Well, he's not answering.'' 
 
 `` What about good old-fashioned door-knocking?'' 
 
 `` He booked it. I managed to lockpick my way in, but he left in a hurry.'' 
 
 `` Sicko, not taking responsibility for something he made,'' Sweater Girl grumbled. Then she grinned. `` Well, you can probably sniff him out! If his stuff's all over the place, then his scent's got to be pretty strong.'' 
 
 I stared. 
 
 `` Heightened senses? Duh?'' 
 
 Then, despite all the talking-to the organizers had told me, I pulled out my character sheet and opened it up. 
 
 `` I... uh... do n't have that skill...''
