Because this sounds like it'll be hilarious.

You need an X in the box.

This is going to be glorious.

You catch the thing's head. Black claws digging into the slick scalp. Squeezing hard enough that it squeals and slashes at your arm. You barely notice as the strikes spark off your forearm. Skin rippling, banded in streaks of fiery orange and sable black. You have moderately more pressing concerns to deal with right now.

You are lying in the mud.

You stand and unfold, holding the dangling creature out at arm's length as you try to brush yourself off with your free hand. [...] You watch with half-amused curiosity as it chews in vain on your wrist, desperately gnawing in hopes of tasting the sweet, royal blood within. You curl your arm, bring it close, and bite it back.

[X] Find your wondrous, snake-twined bow or another favored tool and dispense with these creatures altogether. Try and make some sport of it.

First kill the vampires, then chat.

Huh, unless some really weird flesh-crafting is going on those aren't standard oWoD vampires. Though that might be the mage-centric lens in effect.

To be sorta frank I think you're badly overestimating the potential threat of the vampires and going about addressing it kinda badly. Like, with Indrajit in the driver's seat they're basically just particularly angry scenery. Barring some weird miniboss showing up they can't really even breach our skin and we just tore one in half as casually as you'd rip a sheet of paper. So, like...Odette can handle herself, Nathan can more than handle himself, there's no really super-pressing do-or-die criticality going on here.

Additionally the vote's probably talking about this shit:

Article:
Pinaka: The celestial bow of Lord Shiva, the Destroyer. The bow is actually Ashta Nagas coiled in the shape of a bow. The eight angry terrific snakes form the body and string of the bow. Terrific in appearance and extremely heavy. The angry Ashta Nagas hisses and produce terrific sounds causing the entire universe to tremble in fear. The arrows from the bow is lightning fast. Indestructable.
Source: Mr. Wikipedia


Which, uh, our bow definitely ain't. So tbh this isn't really even the option for concentrated vampire killing it's more like "Indrajit notices that all his shiny things are gone and probably pitches a literally god-like hissyfit".

It's metaphysically rotten and we have no idea whether Indrajit will be sick and how bad can it be.

We sorta do actually. Indrajit pretty thoroughly chomped on the thing and his only real reaction was a "huh, tastes sorta weird? Lemme try a few more and see if I like it" rather than a visceral "what the fuck gah ack get it out" or "why do I have a slow-burn erection for this red splatter on the floor". Tbh it's pretty plausible that rakshasa can process vampiric resonance just fine, especially considering that oWoD vamps are sorta like really shitty, off-brand rakshasa in essence. Like look at the lines right after he macks on the vampire's neck and is just like "this tastes familiar but sorta low quality".

More broadly I seriously doubt it'd even be an option if it was an out and out trap considering Zerban usually doesn't roll like that.

So a light snack then? :V

[X] Take the opportunity to eat a few more of the sickly beasts. You're still not sure if you like it or not exactly and could use a more informed palate.

There are a couple of benefits, loadsa Prime energy for one to stash for winter or blow right now and let us get a better look at what Indrajit's swinging (although he's a weird demon-tiger so maybe it doesn't dangle?). It's probably the most efficient method of mopping up the vampires considering that them dying is a natural byproduct of Indrajit eating them. Given the sorta overt BLACKLIGHT parallels it's possible, probable even, that the more vampires he eats the better an understanding Indrajit has of the modern world. Vampires are going to be a recurring antagonist/infestation in all likelihood (it's just how they roll) and getting a leg up on solving them at the start is pretty valuable.

That's a good point, the situation is actually under control at the moment. Changing my vote:

I would assume that these are blood brothers and or regular fleshcrafting as this seems to be the lair of a fairly powerfull Tzimisce even if it lacks the flesh walls so far and a ardent follower of the sword of cain that was building shovelheads here. A
And well the problem is that to much vampiric essence turns us from "happy fun Indrajit" into jhor infested Voormas fanboy. And no one wants to do that to our fashion sense.
