By the traditional definition of vampire, yes. They’re a special class of zombie in that they feed on blood, live near-indefinitely if not slain or starved, and are intelligent (though some mythos does differ on that last point), with some myths describing them as having powerful magic and/or psychic powers, but they are considered zombies in that they are dead who have risen from their graves in unlife and have their original, corporeal bodies.
Now, is that the definition Dave is using? We’d have to ask him that. Dave?
to be fair, he DID speak the truth – only from his POV. if the orcs took it the wrong way, so not his problem.
still, i can´t help but think the orcs being very naive here – first, they let the supposedly dangerous zombie into their village, and second because it obviously never occured to them that sooner or later they too will end up a target of the laser dudes….btw, what *did* sue do to warrant a covoluted plan to lure her into a trap? i mean, there are plenty of undead creatures, why suddenly target specifically her?
…maybe to get their hands on henry for more of his useful venom?
She killed and ate a lot of people in that one city and despite showing signs of sentience was marked for destruction, only to be rescued in a literal jailbreak.
Sue mentions that she thinks that she’s still wanted in that city, and in the previous arc refers to herself as a former serial killer in a context that implies that she feels that being feral does not absolve her of responsibility for those killings.
I have to imagine that it wouldn’t be too hard for the laser priests t scrounge up that information.
No, he’s right, not a single untruth. Now ‘half-truths’! Those he tells all the time.
Two half-truths make a whole lie, according to my mother. By that measurement, he’s told enough half-truths to make PLENTY of whole lies.
“Goomba-stomp”. Imma add that to my dictionary.
Not “rogue” though. Sassy at worst.
So, basically, the Laser-Priest is justifying his lies with his own Bio-centric viewpoint.
Also, are vampires technically considered zombies? Becuase if they’re not then there is a falsehood in his statement.

He spoke the truth, only the truth – just not the full truth!
/sigh
The Laser-Priests need to learn to properly conjugate second person informal in English.
