Quest:Thinned Blood

Thinned Blood is a side quest for VTM: Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines .

Acquisition

At the Santa Monica beach, a thin-blood named E wants to find his sire Lily. Agree to help him.

Overview

Head for the Surfside Diner. Ask Doris, the old lady behind the counter, about a pale girl and the phrase "thin-blood". She'll tell you about Lily and give you some of Lily's belongings that she left behind. You'll get a Purse, Lily's Key, a Bail Bond, and Lily's Photo, for 1XP.

Nosferatu: Nosferatu won't be able to talk to Doris without her having a heart attack out of fright. Instead, they can walk past her and pick up the purse from the counter behind her.

Check the Bail Bond in your inventory, and find the name Rolf Toten. You can also check the photo of Lily so you know who to look for.

Leave the Diner, and go to A & B Kilpatrick's Bail Bonds. The computer on the back wall is Kilpatrick's "Krime-Puter." Use it, and go to the "s-z" folder and check the entry for "Toten, R."

It seems that Rolf's bail was posted in the form of a red Lightningbird, Lily's car, with the custom license plate GUYCONI.

Go to the parking structure at the end, between 2nd and Main streets, and find the red car with the GUYCONI plate. Unlock the trunk with Lily's key and take Lily's Diary for 1XP.

Reading the diary we learn that she went to the Santa Monica Blood Bank. Go there and talk to Vandal Cleaver.

  • You can Persuade or Intimidate him to open the back door if you can (the door to the right of his window).
  • Alternately, you could pick the lock on the door to the left of his window. Both doors lead to the same area.

Get inside and enter the first door to the left. Continue through the next door and talk to the male nurse Phil Flabottomus. Use dialogue feats or Disciplines to get the code to the freezer (1969) for 1XP. Alternately, you can hack the computer in the next room over.

Go to the freezers on the opposite side of the basement, specifically the first one in the hall. You may need to move some boxes aside to find the passcode panel. Put in the code you acquired from Phil or the computer. The portion of wall next to the code panel is a door. Opening the door will take you to a short interstitial are between rooms, with a lever to pull. This lever will open up another wall, leading to Lily's room.

Speak to Lily, and set her free, for 1XP and +1 Humanity. Vandal will confront you and refuse to sell you any more blood. To make him change his mind:

  • You can give him $200.
  • Use Dementation or Dominate on him.
  • If your Humanity is <5, you can tell him a story about killing innocent people.
  • Agree to replace Lily (which begins the Replanting a Lily quest).

In the Plus patch, 1XP is granted for any way you convince Vandal to sell you blood again.


Completion

Return to E and talk to him to finish the quest for 1XP.

In the Plus patch, you can also return Lily's stuff to her if you talk to her at the beach.

Rewards

As part of the earlier conversation, or if you return to Vandal and speak to him afterward, you may gain the Replanting a Lily quest.
