Gwen's Vampire Globals Object

This is a revision of standard vampire code that floats around the WoD communities. Includes +pump, +vshift, +relax, and +feed. Other commands are due to be added in the future. A Hunting Room and Automatic Blood Drain code were added on 4/6/03.

MUSHCode for Gwen's Vampire Globals Object

@@ This is a typical vampire sphere object. As mentioned in the credits, it doesn't have a particular
@@ origin, it was just an object I came across somewhere (could be Full Circle or Texas Twilight, or even
@@ Denver).
@@
@@ In any case, I updated several of the commands, including 'fixing' the generation check to actually work.

@@ This object presumes you use Didi-Style chargen, and is configured for TinyMUSH/TinyMUX servers. It will
@@ also work on Penn (you need to change setting it INHERIT, to setting it WIZARD).
