I think conflicting motivations would ramp up the tension at the climax if the character is faced with an ultimatum:
- Both decisions would satisfy the respective motivations.
- Both decisions would come with some kind of repercussion.

To be fair, I do love adding ✨ drama ✨ to my stories! Ooh! Maybe if it were a romance and they cure the curse, but the vampire suffers deteriorates over a year or two. They would maintain their appearance but get noticeably weaker.

Oh my goshhh you are EVIL! I love it! Gah, I really want to write something like this now. The utter despair of it would be so emotionally wounding.

That's interesting! I never viewed it as anything but a curse. Something like that being irreversible definitely adds a bittersweet tang to the ordeal. This is why vampires are awesome!

Alright settle a debate for me please.
If a vampire's curse is broken, do they,
a. Revert to the age they were when they were first bitten or,
b. Rapidly age by however many years they've been alive? #WritingCommunity #WritingQ

Alright, how long does it usually take you to do an outline and don't you dare ask me about that bloody piece of string 😩 #WritingCommunity #WritingQ

Lmao that's brilliant! In one of my older WIPs, I actually debated creating a whole backstory on why the elusive character was called [NAME] 🫣
So glad to know I'm not alone 😭

Lmao! It's nice to know I'm not completely strange in this regard. That's exacty it, if I'm in the flow of things, I don't want to interrupt it by thinking of the perfect character name!

Do you also name every character in your #WIP '____' until you finish outlining or are you normal? #WritingCommunity #Writingq #Writersky

An image board including a silhouette of soldiers marching, hazy mountains with temple tops poking from the forest at sunset, a pitch black sky with grey-toned trees and ground in the foreground, a silhouetted figure stretching out a hand to the camera, someone helping another up a hill eclipsed by the sun, and text; When Gods Bleed | Even gods need our help
After ages of destruction, a god approaches a jaded soldier and her team on the frontlines for help, bringing with him a revelation that could return peace between the gods and humans, but only if they can trust each other to work together and see this new mission through.
