Vitus

@ananke: Go ninja, go ninja, go!

I picture this theme playing as Vitus' ship approaches a planet, its shadow slowly falling across a doomed civilization...

@trinity-blue: Sleep.

@everdeen: Use their hatred as a source of power.

Your glib bravado will not protect you any more than hiding behind the Red Planet will.

Are you at all familiar with the Hex-Solar Empire?

On your world, this does not surprise me.

A fitting name, for one who would be easily crushed underfoot.

@emperor_von_doom:

When one embraces vampirism, one's drinks can often include what you so colloquially refer to as a "tussle."
