It would definitely kill your dog.
Not always
The reason why vampires need permission to enter your house is because it is playing on the fear of the stranger. The fear that a random person who knocks on your door is a predator.
Based on that foundation, I think that the cop version would be that someone has to invite the cop. Instead of playing on the fear of the stranger, it is the fear of the unhinged police officer. If someone calls the police, then they are invited.
Or what if you’re renting, and your landlord is a vampire
they can enter 24 hours after giving notice
Is this vampire lawful good? Or lawful evil?
Well, they’re a cop, so definitely not good.
Well if you were playing a vampire in 5e, the default alignment is Lawful Evil
That’s also the default alignment for cops
Disagree, as most have no respect for the law.
I don’t think Forever Knight ever brought up the “needs to be invited” rule.
This is great. I could definitely imagine some YouTube channel breaking this down in a 30 min video. And I’d watch the whole thing.
We need a LegalEagle video on this question!
I guess if it comes down to if a vampire can go over the head of a homeowner to the bank or the goverment
Vampire magic doesn’t care about human papers.
Vampire magic only cares about who occupies the home.
I’d argue the banks are the actual homeowners anyway
So tenants are fucked, as are short term guests.
Answer depends more on whether or not the Vampire sparkles in the light of the UV lamp outside my apartment door.
Pretty easy to detect that with even crap tier webcams, they’ll oversaturate glitch or white out.
Then its just a matter of some OpenCV code noticing the sparkles, then dumping the hidden container of holy water on the ceiling on them, and answering the door with a shotgun loaded with an oaken slug.
Next call up John Constantine and see if he knows any rival vampires that have some kind death mark on this particular vampire, or if any of them need a blood meal.
Now you probably have cred with some other vampires so further visits from further vampire cops will at the very least be even more interesting.
