Could someone add OotS to this page?

https://en.wikipedia.org/List_of_vampire_traits_in_folklore_and_fiction

Please add it with a "buddy" (that is, add it under the same entry on every table), to make the sorting job easier... (I'm currently trying to work on getting these tables sorted into some kind of vaguely rational order, or at least into the *same* order...)

If the assorted tables intimidate you, then please put the *info* for OotS vamps on the talk page, and I or someone else will actually add it into the tables.Tamtrible (talk) 05:51, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Major missing plot thread(s)

So there's no mention of the Oracle of Sunken Valley, Belkar's curse and subsequent character development, or Roy's relationship with Celia in the Plot section. I don't have time to write them in just right now, but I'm hereby signalling that I intend to. —VeryRarelyStable 10:58, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

Redcloak's alignment

The article states that Redcloak is Lawful Evil, citing to this strip. In that strip, however, Redcloak is addressing O-Chul, and noting that O-Chul is Lawful. That doesn't mean Redcloak is. His methodical attempt to get information shows his bent toward the scientific, as noted later in our paragraph, but that's not enough to paint him as Lawful.

The latest strip, however, shows him summoning an entity that addresses him as "Cleric of Law". Redcloak also refers to this spell as getting help "from the other side of the family", meaning not a devil. This is consistent with the conclusion that he is Lawful Evil and is now relying on the Lawful alignment rather than the Evil one. This may be OR. Still, I think the new strip would be a better supporting reference. JamesMLane t c 20:45, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
