Romance & “Romantic Feeding”
Conventional RPG romances are absent. Intimate scenes are limited to romantic feeding after sufficient rapport or power unlocks with specific primogen.
- Meet the primogen in their haven.
- Choose agreeable dialogue options and flirt three times across eligible quests.
- Start a new conversation; the scene can follow if rapport is high.
Reference guide: PC Gamer.
Spend blood resonance with a primogen to unlock their clan powers tier‑by‑tier; on the final unlock (with cordial relations), a romantic feed may be offered.
Fletcher (Ventrue), Mrs Thorn (Tremere), Niko (Banu Haqim), Onda (Lasombra), Patience (Toreador), Silky (Brujah). Safia supports a gentle, platonic arc.
Primogen Rapport Tracker
Track your flirt attempts and unlock progress locally (no data leaves the page).
Tip: three successful flirts usually enable a scene on a subsequent visit; power route requires the final tier unlock.
