As Skuggi heard roam free he leapt from Rex's shoulder, heading over to the book shelf interested in the things he saw there, namely a bird skull. It was a well known fact that Skullbirds liked other animal skulls, often using them for nests. He chirruped in amusement as he stood on it. "He's pretty hardy. He doesn't easily spook or get hurt for long." Skuggi slipped into his shadow and went through the eyehole of the skull. "And there's that."

He takes a cookie and nibbles on it. Unlike most vampires he's fully able to eat normal food. He just supplements it with blood. When he heard Jay talk about the Fae things sort of clicked. "I see... That could mean several things, for one... I'm pretty sure you are part Fae. It would make sense, seeing as they are immune to compulsion magic of all kinds and well, super secretive. Father went to them during his travels before I was born." He shook his head. "It's all speculation since I wouldn't know much other than what Father wrote. I can assure you it wasn't the Unseelie court... They would kill you if you were part Fae, they see it as a Blight and remove any half breeds they find."

"As for why I am here... Well, as I have established that you could be an ally, I would like to compare any notes that you have on this Undead menace. If there is a Lich behind it... I'll need help taking the, out. They threaten everything we both hold dear. Would you be willing to assist me?"
