POWERS Enhanced speed Enhanced senses Other enhancements based on char play - could be ability to sense metal, or other items Glamour - ability of vampires to entrance others, either by manipulating their targets or by adjusting their own appearance to make themselves more attractive to their victims.
Glamour is, and always will be, a weapon, no matter how prettily dressed. Glamour is intended to make you feel good, to make the idea of vampire feel wonderful. - Feels good when you really don't want it to.
Glamour, and the ability to call, to reduce inhibitions, are relatively common psychic skills. Empath can read emotions. Translate them
Glamour. - psychic space not physical - can convince the other that what is happening in the psychic space is physical. That's what glamour's all about,
Glamour can feel viscous and syrupy by those that are aware of it's usage.
Vampires are not all equal in relation to glamour
Vampires are not equal in supernatural abilities. ie..strength, speed, toughness. Some are barely more than human in those aspects, some are higher in speed or strength than they are in other abilities, some are equally good in all. --- some can sense emotions, some can sense metal ie..bladed weapons .guns.etc.
master vampires can communicate telepathically with those they turn and vice versa. if turned by different vamps, cannot communicate telepathically.
NOTES Transition from human to vampire
Takes three days, pain ...chills...flu like symptoms....dizziness..tiredness..
After that - need at least pint of blood every other day. - first blood can make one feel intoxicated. That sensation leaves as the young vampire becomes accustomed to drinking blood.
Blood is needed to survive but it is like another vitamin, comforting like chicken noodle soup for vampires. the hunger for blood is antithetical to violence. It is about seduction, about drawing the human closer..ie the use of glamour.
Needs to eat.. Food, meatloaf, chicken and rice...much sought after meals for vampire. Good solid meals...not rabbit food.
sunrise- descent into unconsciousness sunset - gunshot ascent to consciousness may dream while asleep...may wake during the day but is generally sluggish and doesn't move as quickly or easily as during the night hours
dangerous when out too late risking sunrise ...
To denote singlehood females - wear hair up, exposing neck to indicate carotid was available.
Vampires bargain, negotiate and honor their agreements
==========
Disavowal - when a vampire publicly repudiates the one who made him. Being given immortality, whatever the circumstances, is considered a gift. It creates a bond magically, biologically, politically between the vampires. Disavowal severs the bond. It's considered an extreme action, an action of last resort, and ethically questionable.
