A Monster
-
True Vampirism
Sunlight
No issues.
Mirrors
He has a reflection. How else could he
stare at his gorgeous face and body?
Eating
He can and will ingest anything he likes.
It doesn't make him sick, but there is no
satisfaction in eating.
Drinking
He can drink like he eats. Alcohol on the
other hand doesn't effect him as it would
a normal person. He really has to drink a
significant amount in a short period of time
before if effects him.. and it does for a short
period of time. Until the virus can get around
to clearing it out.
Temperature
He runs cold, and doesn't seem to warm up
next to a fire. However, if he has recently fed,
he will maintain a normal body temperature
for a short period of time.
Immortality
He is immortal, and will retain the age that
he was when he died.
Healing
The more blood he has in him.. the faster he will
heal. Drinking his blood can and will infect you,
but unless you kill yourself, you won't turn.
Addiction
Different bloods taste different. Immortal blood
(demons or angels or mythical creatures) tend to
have addictive blood. Once you've had a taste, it
is hard to stop wanting it. But like any addiction
it can be moderated. Other bloods can be addicting
too..sexual attraction to a person can also be because
the smell of the blood flowing inside of them.
Strength
Slightly stronger than a mortal human. If he
starves himself the virus kicks in, he usually
can over come anything or anyone. Or die in
the process. The older he gets the stronger
he gets.
Everyone plays vampires different, I am going to elaborate a bit more on the type
of Vampire Laurent and how he became one. I have based this 'Vampirism' off of
Hemlock Grove's Upirism.
Laurent's "Vampirism" could be a genetic disease inherited from someone in his
bloodline. As for whom he inherited it from, he couldn't be sure. His mom was a
prostitute who abandoned him at a young age.. and his father is unknown. Then
again, it could also have been passed to him from another without his knowledge.
(Like any blood born disease, he could have picked it up through the exchange of
body fluids). To this day he can only speculate on how he was infected.
This form of Vampirism can remain dormant in the body forever, the symptoms
never surfacing, and the infected living and dying a normal life. Only in the act of
suicide does the virus take over and reanimate the starving corpse. The process
is distinguished by a wing pattern made of blood, that surrounds the infected
either above or below the body after death.
Symptoms take over almost immediately (after death) and the infected is plagued
by an insatiable thirst for blood. It can be quenched in many ways, including direct
source, bone marrow, raw meat, or synthetic sources. It is often uncontrollable if
unquenched for a longer period of time. Other than that, they are indistinguishable
from other mortals. They can eat, drink, and retain a normal diet. They produce waste
and can also reproduce. He is capable of all ranges of human emotion, it has been
noted that the older he becomes the emotions are less intense. He is also capable of
turning his emotions off for any length of time.
He is indeed immortal and doesn't age, they retain the age they were at the time of
death. The only noticeable effects of aging is the increase in strength and power, and
increase in the control of his thirst.
