Ydwin: Is She Really A Fampyr?

[Zap Gun For Hire]

Ydwin can get Food Resting bonuses.

 

Case closed, I'd say.

Shut up, Unity.  Not helping my cause here at all.

My only question is....how is it pronounced?

Is it Vampire?

F-ampire?

Fampyr?

Vampyr?

Whenever I talked about them, it was awkward 

[handsomenat]

Aloth pronounces it once in a banter. Can be heard

at ~15:57. Not Vampire, more like Vampyr? I guess? (Turns out it's very similar to how you pronounce wampir in my own language).

While I think the text is pretty clear on Ydwin, it's important to note that living beings can eat souls to extend their lives.  In Twin Elms there were two factions that did that.  I just thought it was implied that Ydwin died in the ritual or separating the soul had the same effects as biological death.

She says that the experiment dislodged her soul from her body as well so I guess she's technically dead. Has to sustain herself on luminous adra and flesh of animals, like she used to in her previous life. Her wording.

Do you think it is too late for Obsidian to make her a full companion?

 

I don't think so. Josh said once in one of the streams that they are well aware people want it, so I hope it means that if they upgrade a sidekick their first option will be Ydwin.

Do you think it is too late for Obsidian to make her a full companion?

I think it is. My guess is that what they did in Beast of Winter is the extend they will expand upon existing characters.

 

Which is smart - making her a companion would require some heaving editing of base campaign. Exploring those characters in expansions means writing stuff for new content only.

I have some insight from Modwyr:

She is becoming a curious scientific case of interest to the community, I see :D.
