  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

A freeware Kinetic Novel released by Bishojo Games in 2008, Songs of Araiah tells the story of Jason Leraines as he runs away on his 17th birthday in an act of defiance against the Hanasians - the ruling body over the country. He goes to a mansion that is rumored to have a vampire in it that will grant anyone a wish if they let her suck their blood. When Jason meets the vampire, Melissa Vonstrauft, and tells her his wish - to live forever - she sets the price for it at being her servant for the remainder of his life. Given the alternative is a swift death, Jason accepts these terms, and becomes Melissa's servant.

It can be downloaded from here.

  • Berserk Button: Never say anything that would make Melissa feel old.
  • Immortality: Melissa's explanation of it is that the closest one can get to immortality is effectively Healing Factor-type immortality. Anything can maim you (and you'll feel it), but all wounds will heal in a matter of seconds. Eating, breathing, and sleeping aren't needed (save to recover from mental fatigue).
    • Jason gets this immortality mere seconds after Melissa swaps blood with him (a side effect of receiving it is sharp, severe pain). She defers the explanation until after Jason starts connecting the dots and figuring out Melissa is NOT a vampire, which happens to be after she kicks him hard to wake him up. Up until the kick, he actually thought he was dead.
  • Lethal Chef: Melissa, who has also been stuck effectively eating her own cooking (which would be a problem if not for the immortality thing). When Jason first cooks and (by accident) makes something clearly inedible, she eats it without any hesitation or complaint, noting it's not bad.
