Allen spread his wings, scanning his displays and options he decided to keep the default user interface for a Dragon with just some layers of the Vampire and Whight skills on the edges in case he needed them, right now he really needed to eat and his minions brought him a couple of appetizers.

Focusing on the newcomers Allen saw the woman was already gone but the man was still there, his vision was distorted from the hunger and deterioration effects of his undead conditions but it was easy to fix, ignoring the prattle of the other minions he lunged at the Human and was satisfied to see his slaves running around to avoid trampling, he didn't want to hurt them if he didn't have to.

Opening his maw while fiddling with the Vampiric Drain skill he heard the human shout something and was confused for a second, something was wrong about the whole thing, maybe he shouldn't eat this human and let him lead Allen to more of his kind, the Player was doing something and Allen soon realised he was under a Dazzle effect, he should eat this Player but also listen to him.

Looking closer at the Human he seemed familiar but Allen couldn't remember where he met him through the blurry vision of all the effects he was under, finally deciding on a course of action he pinned the man to the floor and chomped his lower half and Drained him, then mounted his torso on a handful of spears he found lying around and picked up the Human popsicle, licking him clean of blood and then chomping his arms as well so the man couldn't resist, he asked one of his minions to heal his snack and they brought a Kobold that did his bidding.

When the Human stopped screaming as Allen knew he would because he had blockers, and also the blur from the various annoying effects was diminished he asked the Human to repeat his previous statement but Allen again couldn't understand the garbled words and it finally hit him that the system was distorting a language he wasn't supposed to know, asking one of the Kobolds to translate the Human to Draconian brought the desired results.

There were many more Human Players on the other side of the portal and the man offered to distract them if Allen let him go, considering the offer and the Human's new condition Allen decided to decline but still use him as guide and distraction.

A new problem was that the portal was too small, using his shapeshifting skills from the Vampire menu let him burn hunger points to do a lot of things, including turn himself a lot smaller, after some calculations he knew he would have a longer time in his smaller size but would not be able to become dragon again unless he could drain a lot of players, the return from draining would not be optimized but he did have an army of followers that could help him catch the small Humans.

Transformations were painful, becoming smaller was annoying, when he was the size of a Human he decided to keep his draconian shape so he could have access to the skills and abilities from the race and class, now having about two hours of life in his diminished state he turned to his translator, "take me to the other humans", he said and was surprised by the shrill of his voice.

To Allen's annoyance the Kobold looked behind him before agreeing and looking back Allen saw Oracle pointing towards the Portal, not wanting to antagonize his army leaders Allen just followed the translator but decided to find some better leader than the obviously rebelious Oracle.
