Edith whistles sharply with her missing fingers that briefly appear as ethereal phantoms. Suddenly, a Bernedoodle appears by her side. His coat is a muddy brown and white. He wears a jingiling collar around his neck, with a name tag reading "Jupiter".
His eyes glow a gentle green and little wisps of foxfire dance around between the curls in his fur. When he tries to communicate, ghostly hands that mimic Edith's own materialize in front of him, signing in perfect pacific northwestern ASL.
Artemis has awakened a latent power in Jupiter. The Fates had already decided these two would be together for their entire lives, and she could sense the hound's desire to help his mother. He is under her personal protection, having earned her respect for his dedication to Edith, and as such, when he is summoned, death is only a temporary set back.
On "death" his powers wane and one of Artemis' nymphs whisks the little hunter back home, no worse for wear.
If the two are separated he disappears back home as well, since Jupiter's power is founded on their relationship, it cannot be sustained without his beloved mother present.

Vito consumes The King's Panacea, the modern Ambrosia that THEY use to lie to the masses, hiding the sheeple from its innumerable benefits whilst lying through their teeth as they call it the cause of Elvis Prime's "Death".
At once, a red pulsating light begins to emanate from his chest, faint song emanating from within until at once bursting through in a cacophony of afterbirth-coated limbs.
Distressed faces of Elvis Homunculi press their way through the thin firmament of his skin like a cracked egg, clawing their way overtop of another as they impossibly push their way through Vito's skin without sign of any wound, landing wetly on the ground as an Elvis King; a fused and horrendous mass of nails and bloodied intertwined limbs.

The Vampire is able to turn one of their victims into a lesser vampire, a pale shadow of a full creature of the night but useful nonetheless.
