From what I gathered the River Salve turns "base-born" vampyres (humans, etc.) back to their original forms. Vanescula and the alliance are trying to get the base-borns in Darkmeyer the serum that made that possible so they too can become humans again. "True-borns" given the serum lose their blood-lust temporarily, I think, which is a big deal because now they might have enough blood supply without all the lesser vampyres. The alliance is working to get food and water to the citizens of Meiyerditch and beyond, and are considering rewarding people who participate in tithing stations so everyone's happy.

Speaking with King Roald after the quest shows only vampyres are affected by the Salve's blessing and werewolves can cross freely. That sounds promising. Otherwise you've got yourself what Croco said, what with the traditionalists and all that.

I think Mod Rowl*y was giving out more lore earlier after the quest release but I wasn't there to hear it, so I could be wrong on some points.


I'm still unsure if there would be another side effect for one crossing the Salve.

Talking to Safalaan after the quest yields dialogue from Efaritay that indicates Icyenic emotions are more uncontained and passionate, and more rash, possibly explaining their zealotry for Saradomin.

Turning an Icyene or person of icyenic heritage into a vyre yields a wyrd, a monstrous vyre-like creature with immense power (including the ability to induce intense hallucinations with their venom) and an intense hated for creatures of the light such as icyene.

Confirmation that blood magic can control hormones, platelets, white blood cells, and antibodies, not just red blood cells and plasma.

No more Zamorakians running Paterdomus.

The ability to turn people into vyres is not a natural trait of the vampyre race, but one granted to them through haemalchemy.

Reinforcement of the fact that attempting to equip an entire army with anything higher than steel is ludicrously expensive.

Ivandis became a vyre :c

OH and let's not forget that evidently, the Pravens were in the right when they had werewolves/Canifis declare independence from the vyres. It ended up happening, and this is a 5th Age quest, while their stuff occured 6th age, so their roleplay ended up following lore. Who knew? My bad.

So am I interpreting this correctly?

Haven't done the quest yet, but clearly I don't care much for spoilers.

Humans-turned-Vampyres ('base born*' as you've referred to them) are turned/can be turned back to humans are go free as daisies west of the salve. True borns and any base born* that are allowed/want to/whatever stay east and continue with vampyre culture. Humans are treated alright now because everyone is happy as larry and there won't be an overcrowding issue anymore.

Is that all?

I just want to know, essentially, that if I don't want my Vyre RP effected, I can continue on as before and the only difference is that people that don't want to by in Mory anymore can leave and everyone's happier now that there's a solution to the food crisis, and there's no impetus to mistreat humans anymore (but they're still meat sacks used for their blood, but now there's a bonus to it).

Basically yes Daniel. Vampyre power has been shoved out of Canifis, with Vanescula working with Efaritay and friends to get the Hallowlands repaired. It will take a long time.

Until the rewards for tithing are set up, they're using a stock of blood from Vampyrium to feed the purebloods. Most of the converted ones simply converted back.

Mack explained the new power structure to me.

Seems like some really stupid ****.

I am actually saddened by what they have done to my Vampyres.

I might bring Klaus back, though, and have him re-experience the West these many, many years later since he was turned. That could be interesting?

That's what I'll do with Grey, Dan. Maybe Klaus and Grey can walk over together and be like "..Wel*, what now?" I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold

Got an answer you may or may not be satisfied with. :P
