Joshua York likens this power to the animal magnetism and charisma of military leaders like Bonaparte.Chapter 1: St. Louis, April 1857Chapter 16: New Orleans, August 1857 This power also works on other vampires, and the vampire who submits another vampire to his will take on the title of Bloodmaster, and the latter can be defeated by a stronger vampire so that the latter himself becomes a bloodmaster, and so on.Chapter 15: Aboard the Steamer Fevre Dream, New Orleans, August 1857 According to Joshua York, Damon Julian was "the strongest and most terrible predator ever to walk the Earth"Chapter 31: New Orleans, May 1870, which means that no other vampire in all of history would be able to defeat him with his eyes, except for Joshua York under the effect of red thirst or his supernatural willpower.), Resistance to Disease Manipulation (Joshua said that humans "die like flies as well, of little wounds and illnesses my kind shrugs off".) and Mind Manipulation (Unknown level of Layers: To become a bloodmaster you must resist the power of the eyes, aka mind control, of the opposing vampire and gain the upper hand with his own eyes.)
Attack Potency: Wall level (Can physically fight against Joshua York. Before homo sapiens came to Europe, vampire stories say that vampires, without weapons or clothes, were the masters on earth, that anything that walked on the planet with two or four legs was afraid of their race and were just food for them. This suggests that prehistoric megafauna were preyed upon by vampires. A few hundred of vampires decimated a horde of thousands humans in a great battle on the desolate shores of the Baltic a thousand years before.), higher via Red Thirst

Intelligence: At least Gifted, possibly Genius (Damon Julian is described as being educated, intelligent and cultured. Is a master manipulator, who manipulated and killed the entire Garoux family and inherited their fortunes and their lands Possibly scale to Joshua York, who can retain a lot of information on the first try, which makes it easier for him to learnWhether this ability is common among vampires or unique to Joshua York is unclear.)
Weaknesses: Vampires can be permanently killed with brain damage, drowning, and fire. Sunlight weakens and gives unbearable pain to vampires and burns their skins (which can heal in one night), and kills them after four to six hours of exposure. Excessive damage to internal organs prevents vampire regeneration from working, and many female vampires die in childbirth due to damage caused by their children at birth. Suddenly pulled a vampire from his victim give him a sickening, dizzy, disoriented feeling. Damon Julian is so old he's tired of life, he sometimes makes stupid and dangerous decisions because of that, although the beast, a kind of bestial alter ego among vampires, does everything to survive, and she is described as clever and patient. 
== Note ==
The reason for the layers of mind control for Joshua York and Damon Julian is because they are the most powerful beings of their entire species, apex predators. All vampires have the ability to become bloodmasters, therefore a vampire is necessarily stronger than another member of its species.
In Fevre Dream, when a vampire says that another vampire is "strong" or "stronger" they are talking about the strength of their eyes, not their physical strength.

File:Damon Julian.jpg|"Evil, you talk about. Where did you learn that concept? From them, of course, from the cattle. Godd and evil, those are cattle words, empty, intended only to preserve their worthless lives. They live and die in mortal dread of us, their natural superiors. We haunt even their dreams, so they seek solace in lies, and invent gods who have power over us, wanting to believe that somehow crosses and holy water can master us. You must understand, dear Joshua, that there is no good or evil, only strength and weakness, masters and slaves. You are feverish with their morality, with guilt and shame. How foolish that is. These are their words, not ours. You preach of new beginnings, but what shall we begin? To be as cattle? To burn beneath their dun, work when we might take, bow to cattle gods ? No. They are animals, our natural inferiors, our great and beautiful prey. That is the way of things."
File:Damon Julian 2.jpg|"Let the cattle create--life, beauty, what you will. And we shall take their creations, use them, destroy them if w echoose. That is the way of it. We are the masters. Masters do not labor. Let them make the suits. We shall wear them. Let them build the steamboats. We shall ride upon them. Let them dream of life eternal. We shall live it, and drink of their lives, and savor the blood. We are the lords of this earth, and that is our heritage. Our destiny, if you will, dear Joshua. Exult in your nature, Joshua, do not seek to change it. Those cattle who truly know us envy us. Any of them would be as we are, given the choice."
