Addiction to cardamine and blood-drinking

[Coin]

It's not really the plan of the character. The character, named Dr. Vladimir Acula, Hematologist, would find blood curiously attracting to drink, when he's only really addicted to cardamine, though he would associate it with an addiction to blood itself and would go out in cannibalistic rampages to get his fix of blood, but since most people he'll find will not be cardamine addicts, he'll just crave for more blood, and then he'll suffer from severe Cardamine withdrawal, which would explain his instability, but he would still look for blood.

vampires in disco... meh.

rp'ing twilight will not get you laid.

the pseudo-science behind the cardi addiction is shaky, to say the least. replacing ANY part of the human genome with that of a grass would be catastrophic, and the cell would die immediately. plant dna has up to seven strands, but humans only have two. replacing part of human dna would mean that the RNA transcriptase would be able to process any proteins - it would get caught on this seven-stranded dna and not be able to make the proteins; without enzymes, the cell would die, and the cardi 'addiction' would cease.

however, i do see two potential sandboxes for this char of yours; attacking corsair human organs trafficking, or attacking outcasts. either sound fun.
