Hii I’m really behind on vampires smp because of school could you catch me up on the important lore bits that happened in eps 4 and 5?
Okay, so I can catch you up on Scott and Apo's POVs the best, the rest is based off of what I've seen, and some snippets I've watched. Also I consistently mix lore bits from different episodes up, so I apologize in advance if it's not completely accurate /gen.
He is just, living in a comedy show.
Scott is messing with the townsfolk, trying to convince them to convert to vampirism willingly. This is mainly due to the fact that there are now too many vampires that aren't on the vampire's side and he's kind of pissed about it (very much implied with my watching, because he is SO good at keeping his emotions under control).
While episode 4 was more found family vampires, with Shelby and Pyro hiding the fact that they're interested in a cure (but not necessarily going to take it), episode 5 was very much Scott taking the reins with those two when he found them lying to him. I haven't watched Pyro's POV yet for 5, but Scott found him conspiring with the humans to leave them [Pyro] a note at the secret mineshaft.
Also Shelby turned a willing Avid, at the same time that Drift was turned. The one person Scott and Owen told the coven not to turn. It was pretty interesting, because she lied successfully to Pyro, and somewhat successfully to Owen, but ended up failing at lying to Scott.
At the end of episode 5 he believes Apo to be run out of town because Martyn found out they were a vampire. And she runs to the castle, asking to join the Vampire group. They agree (although I think they may have her prove her loyalty).
Okay, so in Episode 4 Martyn is suspecting her of being a vampire? Why because they're being suspicious as fuck. They feel so guilty after what happened in Episode 3. Apo is also being super protective and constantly asking if everything's fine with everyone, no one's hurt. But she's also struggling with the blood lust so bad, constantly saying that they're hungry and just generally feeling so guilty.
Legs finds out they're a vampire at the end of episode 4 as well, when he, Cleo, and Apo go to neutralize a beacon by the castle.
The first bit is much of the same as episode 4, her with the militia and feeling guilty for being a vampire and also not telling them. They are struggling so much with their hunger, it's terrifying. Knowing she can't keep it under control, she ends up asking to talk to Martyn in the militia head quarters. He obliges.
She then, comments that she's hungry so many times, and tells him that they're a vampire. And that in order to save Martyn on the bridge they had to give him blood. (I think it was their own blood that they gave him, but I could be wrong). Martyn, considering the circumstances, freaks out, freezes her and panicked tells the town. I don't actually know what the town say, because she's stuck in the militia head quarters for a while. And then everyone goes down the ladder. And they all talk. Eventually, near the end of her episode, she asks the town to chase her out so that way they can be their spy on the inside. Make it seem like the town hates her so she can betray the vampires.
But with how Scott and Owen found out Shelby and Pyro's lies to them and got them in line, I'm scared this will end in her death if she's found out.
