We found a great site that gives a side by side comparison on vampires from twelve different authors depicting a list of over 200 traits based on these authors. Please visit this link to see for yourself. We can also send you an excel sheet with the same information in an easy to read spreadsheet. We ask that you RP based on these “truths” depicted below, so everyone is on the same page, it just makes it easier to manage when we have rules.

• Vampires appear the age at which they became a vampire, so if your vampire was turned at age 10, then they will appear to be 10 years old.
  
• A vampire is 'frozen' at the moment of conversion. That is, hair and nails can be neither shortened nor lengthened, tattoos don't stick, etc.
  
• Vampires are a kind of undead.
  
• Vampire skin is unnaturally pale and cold to the touch.
  
• The pallor and coldness decreases after feeding.
  
• A vampire's heart beats, but it is too slow to hear it.
  
• Vampires are still sexually functional.

• You become a vampire by suffering fatal blood loss and drinking (or being injected by) a vampire's blood.
  
• The new vampire appears dead for some time before rising.
  
• A newly made vampire will wake ravenous and will tend to attack anyone within range (unless fed as part of the process).

• Vampires can be sustained by animal blood, but not for long.
  
• Vampires have fangs and are retractable.
  
• Blood must be 'fresh' (from a living person, not stored or refrigerated or synthetic).
  
• Vampires no longer need 'regular' food and are not physiologically able to eat solid food.

• Vampires tend to have the same supernatural traits/abilities as their sire/creator.
  
• Damage resistance, high strength and fast healing.
  
• Superhuman perception (e.g. sight, hearing, mystical).
  
• Hypnotic mind control, but the mind control requires eye contact.
  
• Superhuman speed.
  
• Flight/Levitation.
  
• Inhuman stealth (Sometimes to the point of invisibility).
  Please note: Since vampires already come with many special abilities additional abilities will not be approved.

• A vampire is immune to mortal diseases
  
• A vampire can no longer contract mortal diseases, but can still be a carrier
  
• Vampires have control over animals
  
• Old vampires tend to be stronger but generally just because the strong ones are better at not getting killed

• Vampires can become intoxicated by drugs or alcohol secondhand (e.g. by drinking from an intoxicated victim)
  
• Animals can sense vampires and feel threatened by them
  
• Please also see Death/Harm below

• A stake through the heart causes permanent death
  
• Sunlight causes nearly instant combustion and is nearly always fatal (unless the vampire is a day walker but sun still affects them)
  
• Sunlight causes severe burns and discomfort and is fatal after extended exposure
  
• Sunlight must be direct to be effective
  
• Vampires suffer more than usual damage from fire
  
• If invulnerable to normal attack, wood is one of the few substances that will harm a vampire
  
• Beheading causes permanent death
  
• Dead vampires decompose/disintegrate as a function of age
  
• Cross if effective, burns vampiric flesh on contact, but may be replaced with other religious symbols according to the belief system of the wielder and/or vampire
  
• Holy Water if effective, burns (like acid) and can cause severe damage in quantity

• These are things that differ between authors, so it is your choice if your vampire has the following abilities or weaknesses.
  
• Vampires have no reflection in mirrors or water.
  
• When you drink from a vampire (without being dead first) they gain some power over you.
  
• Crosses if effective, burns everything on contact, if you are RPing to attack a vampire – make sure you both are on the same page.
  
• Holy Water can reverse or halt effects of vampiric attack, if you are RPing to attack a vampire – make sure you both are on the same page.
  
• A stake must be made of wood to be effective, if you are RPing to attack a vampire – make sure you both are on the same page.
  
• Vampires can be sustained indefinitely by animal blood (without suffering deleterious side effects).
  
• Being fed on is pleasurable for the human victim.
  
• Crosses are more effective in the hands of believers.
  
• Crosses are ineffective.
  
• Vampires can summon certain animals.
  
• If invulnerable to normal attack, fire is one of the few substances that will harm a vampire.
  
• Vampires have control only over specific animals.
  
• Vampires can function normally during the day, provided they avoid the sun.
  
• Only the oldest/most powerful vampires can function during the day or if they come from a long aged bloodline.
  
• A child of a vampire and a mortal results in a 'Dhampir', with some vampiric abilities and fewer of the weaknesses.
