Interview With You/Vlad/Cemetery/Grave
You glide through the mist to the grave and reach for the rings around the hand. “Not so fast, grave robber!” a voice bellows.
”Well, technically, the hand is sticking out of the grave, so I’m not robbing the --” you stop, realizing you’re talking about three feet higher than you ought to be. You look down to see a midget pointing a crossbow at you.
”Yes, undead fiend, it is I, Minivan Helsing! Unhand that hand, or you’ll be less handsome! Because I’ll shoot you in the face!”

If you have not learned how to mesmerize people.
You raise your hands in the air, but then you fix Minivan Helsing with your icy vampire’s stare. “You want to put down that crossbow,” you say.
”I really don’t, demon!” Helsing shouts. "In fact, I want to fire it at you!”
There’s a thwip as he pulls the trigger on the crossbow, a ptwang! as the crossbow’s string breaks, and a thunk as the bolt thuds into the ground somewhere behind you.
”Drat!” Helsing shouts. “Be a good infernal fiend, will you, and hold on while I grab my bolt back, and restring this thing? Only I’ve just got the one bolt, y’know. Or you could come closer and I could stake you? I’m sure we can work something out.”
You decide to flee the scene before you get perforated.

Helsing drops the weapon. “I want to put down the crossbow.”
”You want to take a long walk off a short pier.”
”I want to take a long walk off a short pier,” Helsing says, and wanders off to find one.
You sink to your knees in the mist, a little shaky at the brush with death. Undeath? Redeath?
Anyway, you kneel in the mist, breathing heavily . . . until you notice that your legs are turning to mist, too. It’s like you’re flexing some muscle you didn’t know you had, only instead of impressing ladies with a gun show, it’s allowing you to turn into mist. Nifty!
