Wha??
The boxed RQ3 edition is being replaced by a paperback with the same contents, but cheaper, so you won't be able to get the old boxed edition. I don't know when AH runs out of boxes, or introduces the paperback to the trade. I don't have my copy of the paperback yet, so it may not be ready.

I use the daemon spelling because it has associations in my mind with "spirit
being" rather than with standard Christian mythology. I also wore that
spelling out in my WFRP days. In fact, I'd forgot about the existence of
Fundamentalists.
And of course the Vivamortists acknowledge the power of the Runes, in a matter-of-fact pragmatic way. They would be publically puzzled by any insistence on an association of the Runes with theism.
I'm not sure how much to trust the Vivamorts myself. Beings with very long life spans may become pretty much incomprehensible to us mortals in terms of their motivations and values. Vivamortists admit that, from a human mortal point of view, being a vampire is a pretty bleak prospect. It's hard to tell if they are subtle propagandists or totally indifferent to the fate of their mortal audience.
