Clannfear claws cure disease without even needing to be made into a potion. It's quite possible Sigrid would want to prevent Katia from becoming a vampire, as having a vampire as an enemy is an easy way to die. Vampires in oblivion gain a ton of benefits and have very few drawbacks; Katia could simply sneak back in and feed on Sigrid had she eventual turned. I'm pretty sure that she's fine.
On the other hand, Sigrid is Sigrid. She probably could keep away a vampire Katia without needing to think too much about it. It's magic, baby.
We also don't know if Katia came into contact with the Clannfear's claws. She could have, but she could not have. I mean, she might not have vampirism at all, since we didn't exactly see Nah bite her anyway, but I think there's still a lingering possibility. We should wait and see. If she does, oh well.
The only real reason why I'm here is for Prequel, but I'd appreciate some direction to other great adventures as well. Send me a message.

Again, I have doubts on Sigrid's combat abilities, the only useful magic school she has tagged is conjuration and Katia would get a boost to her destruction and be somewhat better strength, speed and willpower.

Katia would have to catch Sigrid off guard. In a one on one fair fight, Sigrid will win due to her being able to conjure a full set of armor and weapons + powerful minions. The Clannfear requires a skill of 75+, so Sigrid can theoretically summon anything at or below that skill level. This includes a skeletal champion, a faded wraith, a clannfear, both fire and frost atronach, daedroth, and spider daedra.
Any one of these would fucking wreck Katia in a fair fight. If Katia had become a vampire she would still require less than fair fighting, and being a vampire would assist her in this very much.
I think it's worth assuming that Sigrid values her life, and would want to make sure that she had the advantage over anyone she robs. Katia blatantly telling her that she had a run in with a vampire, and may be infected would have been a red flag to Sigrid. Sigrid, regardless of Katia's actual combat prowess, may have assumed that Katia fought a vampire, and became infected (if you remember, Katia never specified WHAT her encounter with a vampire was). Taking advantage of someone who may have the combat prowess to kill a vampire, and may become a vampire themselves, is a stupid move. Sigrid is anything but stupid. Hence my reasoning that she likely WOULD cure Katia.
> oh HELL no. are you kidding?
stop this. stop it now.
so some broad stole your stuff. well, guess what?
she has a whole pile of gold just sitting around, and she has to sleep sometime. maybe you can't sneak all that well, but with the right distraction, you won't need to sneak.
just wait. sometime soon, some tourist is going to ignore all the warnings and stroll right in. maybe you could even "direct" such person towards the guild. the louder they are, the better. they'll drown out all your creaking. when they walk in, follow directly behind. then find a good hiding spot. from this point, there's two openings to take back your things, with "interest." one is while Sigrid is tending to her new guest, but you have to be extra careful she doesn't see you. the other is in the middle of the night, while she sleeps. beware, we don't know how light a sleeper Sigrid is.
you could probably ask Asotil. it must be nearing 4:00 by now, and a guy like him would jump at the chance to stamp out injustice. if it wasn't Sigrid we were talking about.
...he might need some convincing in order to help you.
There's also your vampire friend, who could probably do the sneaking for you while you scrounge up some clothes and pay her another visit.

Re: PREQUEL suggestion box
>Find sudden determination
You know, that stuff didn't belong to you. technically she can't accept stolen goods, you can get your clothes back as they belong to another mages guild, you are borrowing them. You can get your book(s) back as they are supposed to belong to your friend and not you, the letter and gift you are taking to her are also not yours. so yes, you may have lost some cool stuff, but not all hope is lost. even mages have to follow rules.She did say she didn't take dontaions from people who were unwilling to part with stuff.
>Go to the store room and hide in the empty container untill the rain stops (or until before morning). the go grab the oily rags in the barrel, to turn into makeshift clothes. Then wait till one (or both) of the mages leave the building so the door is unlocked. then as a potential mage enter the building and get your stuff back.
There are words here.... Do you wish to read them? Yes / No

Trust me, I would love for that to happen, in fact I think this is the better choice. But the fact of the matter is that kaz is not the "all you need is confedence" type and as this is just that, all I or anyone else can do is pray to what ever god or gods or whatever that that bottle is completely empty. Contrary to the name the riddler, I'm not an evil mastermind that wants to just toy with katia, I am just a realist. Katia will without a doubt try to drink that bottle, all I'm saying is to make lemonade out of lemons, Katia will get drunk and win the danceing contest, I don't want to be the bad guy... I want to help make the bad, good

Katia, are you really going to put up with this? When lifes gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! YOU DON'T WANT ANY DAMN LEMONS WHAT ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THESE?! Demand to see whatever God has put you into this mess! Make that God rue the day it thought it could Katia Fuckin' Managan lemons! You're the woman who's gonna burn the town down -- with the fireballs! You're gonna get your magicka to create a giant fireball that BURNS THE TOWN DOWN!

Oh, the ever quoteable portal 2, what would we do without you.
Fanart! Holy crap, fanart. When I am sick or testing you guys are busy being amazing, incessantly.
But just a heads up: in coming updates I am probably going to take a page from Andrew Hussie's book and start keeping this thread locked, only opening it after an update. That means it might be hard to post fanart here, unless your timing is good . Remember that there is also a fanart page on the site, and I see everything posted there too! If you want to post something, that is a fine place too!

Another one of the many uses of Jarate! But, sadly, this did not come to pass. Unless "Cheapest Mead" is a joke label on a bottle of piss.

You and Dmitri proceed to fill the guild up with cats and your hybrid babies. Life is awesome and great and nothing hurts and you gave Quill-Weave the package and a pile of gold and she's your Bffsies 4 life right along side Nah, that crazy normal human vampire chick who is now a successful doctor with her own hospital and everything thanks to your generous contributions. Later on the empire will saint you and make a statue in your honor out of cake. Everyone loves and respects you. Yay!

Your fancharacter can never run fast enough to make it into the actual story! But nice picture nonetheless and the blurring effects actually turned out pretty good (a rarity for blurring effects in general).

You're listening to a voice in your head, one of many, and to be more specifically the one that told you to cast a flying spell and jump out of a window.
you are to some extent crazy, listening to voices in your head over most of the warnings everybody gave you before getting into this situation. You'd probably believe me if I told you I was a purple snake-dragon with wings.
You could try to steal the stuff back but it seems like something only a master thief would do considering all of the danger, Sigrid is MUCH more experienced then you, she could and would probably just charm you back out and have you giver her all the stuff back and if she engaged you in battle you would surely lose, there's also steve and that clannfear(provided sigrid doesn't summon more), you have no weapons and clannfears are fire resistant.
You are just in a sad spot.The heros in the stories people tell don't just start out being the winners and getting everything on a silver plate, besides it would make the story very anticlimactic .And all you do when encountered with a obstacle is just simply try to hide or run from the bad, usually by getting drunk, doing so now would only prove how PATHETIC you are.
Go to the church, Katia managan would certainly do something about this but katia managan is not in a good spot to do it so she needs a place to stay for the night, and maybe things will get better. KATIA FUCKING MANAGAN Has done so much in her existance, some good some bad. Like that dinner party with the countess, or that time I had you jump out of the window.
Now go and get some rest.You'll need it for the next day, and don't think about killing yourself or drinking that bottle, that's like walking out and no cat can just simply walk out of their own story.And if you do I will haunt your dreams tonight and scare you(fan art is there, many pardons for using bad effects on photoshop for rain)
No pardon necessary, it looks good! I actually really like that sharp, angular style it has. (And how your avatar is slowly becoming a recurring character in the fanart).

I think the inherent problem with Swish O' Deadly is that Katia doesn't actually have any of those sweet skills and awesome self-confidence. And trying to get new skills by making a new identity hasn't worked out so well thus far.

Yea, I just remade the willpower symbol with paint, but I call this rusty thing the Badge of Will nevertheless.
Also, good news: The open wound in my drawing arm healed, so I can resume drawing now.
Oh man, this makes this... second generation fanart? Fanart of fanart? I approve. The Badge of Will is a cute idea too (sadly, Katia isn't up to rewarding herself at the moment).

Justice is not served in Cyrodiil. There is only one option: We must become Justice's champion, and dance with the devil in the pale moonlight.
We shall become... BatKat
We will not be the hero they deserve, but the hero they need.
But... she's not a rich playboy, OR the world's greatest martial artist! But then again, I am sure she will be very entertaining trying.

We're not leaving this town until we have that package, or the town is burning down around our ears or both.
Doomkat looks very confident. Dangerously confident.

Sorry for the horrid scrawl that I call "My handwriting."
Yes, it's Katia Managan. The "F." stands for "Fucking", because "Katia Fucking Managan" is the best full name ever.
I like to call this one "Psycho Nurse Nah" for obvious reasons. And yes, this one includes feet. *Gasp*
Here's a little fan-made intro to PREQUEL by me. And yes, I had to use MS Paint(Obviously, if you look at the Y, silly!) to fix it up, because I noticed I spelled "Crie" instead of "Cry".
I must've been out of it.
And finally, a little fan-made view of what the monologue is like. The scale says "Katia" on the base, and it says "PREQUEL" above the scale.
I still would love to be a part of the story, even if just displayed as the "Only Seeable by Katia" conscience. (Not sure if I spelled that right, I don't really write this word all that much)
If, by some whacky chance that my insanity actually makes a part where I show up as a sort of craze-induced illusion who lectures Katia in what she should do, I end up in PREQUEL, you can also use the picture of me as a reference, or you can just make a floating sandwhich.
Aaaand that's all I have for the moment, but I'll be uploading more fanart soon enough. (Not even sure this is the right place, but... Heck, everyone knows a good piece of fanart helps people cheer up! Katia'd probably love seeing a drawing of herself.)
Oh, and sorry about my garbage art skills.
I'm not very good at drawing.
I don't really drop in reader characters, but it's neat to see them regardless! Thank you for the fanart - and no, it's not garbage! It's better than a lot of people can draw.

after watching, would someone be nice enough to verify what they seen with what I wrote in the spoiler box, to clarify something for me.
part 2 starts were part 1 ended at the title screen, which flashes back and forth between the title and "press start" until the title screen dissolves to a Katia sleeping, it is clear that part 1 was a day dream. Someones throat clears, Katia looks up at the person crossed, he isn't the one trying to get her attention, he just has a creepy stare. She turns to see her manager who calls her into her office. The scene cuts to her staring at a pendulum desk toy, the clacking of it sounds through out the whole scene. The manager slides a form over to Katia that accuses her of theft. Katia pulls out her lighter and sets fire to the building... yet again, another day dream, she is sitting there staring at her manager.
later at her apartment, she downs some booze, scene snaps to black.
I love these things . Looking forward to the next installment. And yeah, I can verify that I interpreted it correctly.

aww, she finally found a way to make a living off of causing problems for everyone. And while I don't know if it's intentional, it's funny to note that the handprint is covered such that it only seems to have three fingers.

You, dear Katia, are kinda similar. CHEER THE FUCK UP, smile!
Misery loves company! And holy shit, you totally win the Prequel Fanart Award or something for drawing better than me faster than me and more regularly than me. Seriously, you are the King Fanartist, it is you. Maybe closely tied with AMKitsune, of course.
And everyone, you are all awesome. Your art puts mine to shame, and I am honored to receive it ! Thank you all very much.
Anyway, with this I am going to have this thread closed. Let's let Katia make the next choice on her own, then we'll try some more limited suggestion box opening-and-closing, see how that works.
