Gostalgia

**Gostalgia** is an occasional segment on The Attack where classic games and gaming systems are discussed and evaluated in terms of modern sensibilities.

It was spun off into its own show for a handful of episodes, but that was shelved for being too resource intensive after the reduction in staff when What's News and Mostly Harmless were cancelled.

Romani Culture

Among the Romani people, *mullo* (literally *one who is dead*) are believed to return from the dead and cause malicious acts as well as drink human blood, most often that of a relative or the person who had caused their death. Other potential victims were those who did not properly observe the burial ceremonies or kept the deceased's possessions instead of properly destroying them. Female vampires could return, lead a normal life and even marry but would eventually exhaust the husband with their sexual appetite. Similar to other European beliefs, male vampires could father children, known as *dhampirs*, who could be hired to detect and get rid of vampires.

Anyone who had a horrible appearance, was missing a finger, or had appendages similar to those of an animal was believed to be a vampire. A person who died alone and unseen would become a vampire, likewise if a corpse swelled or turned black before burial. Dogs, cats, plants or even agricultural tools could become vampires; pumpkins or melons kept in the house too long would start to move, make noises or show blood. According to the late Serbian ethnologist Tatomir Vukanović, Roma people in Kosovo believed that vampires were invisible to most people, but could be seen by a twin brother and sister born on a Saturday who wore their clothes inside out. Likewise, a settlement could be protected by finding twins who could also see the vampire outdoors at night, who would have to flee immediately after they spotted it.
Romanian Vampires

Romanian vampires were known as *moroi* ( from the Romanian word "mort" meaning "dead" or the Slavic word meaning "nightmare") and *strigoi*, with the latter classified as either living or dead. Live *strigoi* were described as living witches with two hearts or souls, sometimes both.[38] *Strigoi* were said to have the ability to send out their souls at night to meet with other *strigoi* and consume the blood of livestock and neighbours. Similarly, dead *strigoi* were described as reanimated corpses that also sucked blood and attacked their living family. Live *strigoi* became revenants after their death, but there were also many other ways of a person becoming a vampire. A person born with a caul, an extra nipple, a tail, or extra hair was doomed to become a vampire. The same fate applied to the seventh child in any family if all of his or her previous siblings were of the same sex, as well as someone born too early or someone whose mother had encountered a black cat crossing her path. If a pregnant woman did not eat salt or was looked upon by a vampire or a witch, her child would also become a vampire. So too would a child born out of wedlock. Others who were at risk of becoming vampires were those who died an unnatural death or before baptism. Finally, a person with red hair and blue eyes was seen as a potential *strigoi*.

Another type of Romanian vampire is pricolici. These types are humans born with a tail, and they can shape shift like a werewolf but they have control over their transformation. Their entire power is kept in their tail. In undeath, the pricolici remain in their wolf form.

Romanian vampires were said to bite their victims over the heart or between the eyes, and sudden deaths could indicate the presence of a vampire. Graves were often opened five or seven years after burial and the corpse checked for vampirism, before being washed and reburied
'Vampire' victim accused of being a drunk liar

## Was the alleged victim of Vampires in Cape Town Drunk?

Cape Town - Friends of the Brooklyn “vampires” have accused their alleged victim of being a “drunk, lying fraud”.

And they say there is no way their buddies could have attacked Theresa Simons, 53, because “they are good people”. Four weeks ago, Theresa accused Vincent Bobby Walters, 49, and girlfriend Nolene de Grame, 50, of drugging, assaulting and trying to rape her.

The mother of four claims that they tried to drink her blood in a “demonic” attack, leaving “tooth marks” on her body, and only prayer saved her.

Before that, the suspects, Theresa and her husband Andor had finished four boxes of wine. Theresa claimed Andor was sleep in a nearby park during the attack.

Walters and De Grame have been charged with attempted murder, attempted rape and robbery after allegedly taking her cellphone.

But Rehanah Toefy said Walters is a hard-working family man who has “lost his job” because of the allegations. She couldn’t say what kind of work her friend does. And she claimed that De Grame, who’s been her char for years, was too ill to drink heavily or harm anyone physically.

“These allegations and charges against this sweet lady are false,” said Rehanah.

“She has asthma, is diabetic and suffers from extreme high blood pressure. She moves slowly because of this.

“Physically she is unable to attack anyone, she takes forever to complete the chores she does here around the house.

“She is a sweet soul. And she drinks beer, not boxes of wine.”

Another friend, Maya Sawicka, 45, claimed she previously boarded with Simons for three years.

“She is a drunk liar who uses people,” claimed Sawicka.

On Sunday, a heartbroken Simons said she can’t believe Swaicka and Toefy would “stab her in the back” like this.

“I asked Maya to move out because she and her son were causing too much trouble,” said the community worker.

“I stand by what I told police.”

Sawicka and Toefy are now drawing up a petition calling on the Cape Town Magistrate’s Court to have their friends released on bail when they appear again on December 29.

“I want to show what kind of ‘victim’ Theresa is. I hope Nolene and Bobby sue her. They do not deserve this,” said Toefy. The two suspects are still in custody.
Spanish Vampires

### Spain

In Spain there are several traditions about beings with vampiric tendencies. In Asturias highlights the Guaxa, which is described as an old vampire who sticks his single tooth and sucks the blood of its victims. Cantabria equivalent exists in the name Guajona. Catalonia is the legend of the Dip , an evil vampire dog.

In the Canary Islands there was also a belief in vampiric beings, here in the form of blood-sucking witch. One such example is provided by the legend of the Witches of Anaga in Tenerife.
How our society is constructed

## **How out society is constructed!**

**Distinctive differences between fact and fiction:**

For the most part, our community sits on the belief, that the modern human view of Vampires has been distorted by Mythology over time. I love a Vampire movie as much as the next fellow man, but there are distinct differences of fact between the real life Sanguinarian Vampire and the Hollywood Vampire.

Sanguinarians Vampires are not immortal as Hollywood Vampires are.
Sanguinarians Vampires are not demonic or evil as often depicted in Hollywood Vampire movies.
Sanguinarians Vampires may blister or rash in sunlight but do not suffer combustion as a result of sunlight exposure.

Our community is a support network for both Sanguinarians and their Donors. We operate over the internet, and hold gatherings occasionally for those who want to meet others of their kind.

## **Our Policy**

Our community follows a logical belief system. We are a scientifically minded support community for sufferers of the Sanguinarian condition. We work to support Sanguinarians, and also their donors. When possible we can help with finding access to blood, help donors and Sanguinarian Vampires meet each other and even offer personal support.

We do not condone illegal actions against other people. We do not encourage illegal behaviour, and do not support and form of illegal act such as murder, harming others against their will or taking blood in a non-consensual manner.

We would encourage anyone who is being mistreated by a Sanguinarian to make us aware. If the Sanguinarian cannot be persuaded to follow policy they will be removed from our community, which does not condone abusive behaviour. In serious enough cases, the issue may be taken to the relevant authorities.
Attack Episode 133

## Back to episode list

> "'Do me in the front butt,' she whispers. 'Right in the pooter.'"
>
>

The Attack episode 133 aired on 24 February 2016. It was hosted by Alex Corea and Evanne Friedmann.

Zack Pearlman creepily stalked around the back of the set during the opening teases. Kevin was on mic off screen to give commentary on the show.

Alex and Evanne talked about Orbyt Play the past weekend and showed highlights from the stunts. During one of them, Corrado punched Alex in the crotch, so Alex set up an IRL Duck Hunt stunt for today's show with Corrado as the duck (and Yaniv as the dog). The donation incentive was $500 to play the game, and each $20 after that would be an additional tennis ball shot at Corrado. The incentive was met very quickly and tons more donations came in for more shots.

Alex cut the sound of a frog screaming into Star Wars and Jurrasic Park clips.

Alex and Evanne finally addressed "Shrimps of Passion," the Attack fanfiction by **Rylos**. Since he didn't finish the 12th and final chapter, Alex had the Gamewisp subscribers finish it one sentence at a time. Kevin narrated as Alex began the chapter for everyone.

Evanne took a moment to talk seriously about the Chun Li's "jiggle physics" in Street Fighter 5. Alex and his unrealistic breasts took issue. Evanne countered with unrealistic breasts of her own and the two had a boob fight!

In The Rundown, Alex and Evanne discussed:

* The price of the HTC Vive was announced at $799
* Over 6 million people played The Division beta. Kevin joined them to talk about The Division

Corrado was shot with lots and lots of tennis balls, and was also shocked.
Sanguinarian Vegan & Vegetarian Study

We have been studying the phenomenon of Vegan and Vegetarian Vampires in recent surveys. I personally have only met a single Sanguinarian in my life that claimed to be Vegan, and none that were Vegetarian. It has always been a view of mine, that seeing Veganism or Vegetarianism in a Sanguinarian would be very rare, as Vampires are by their very nature predators.

From what I have seen in most Sanguinarians, backed up by our Sanguinarian Bio Study, the majority of Sanguinarians seem to need meat in their diet as well as blood to maintain their health, especially when blood is of low access.

So rather than playing the guessing game, we have produced a survey within the communities for feedback from individual Sanguinarians.

## The Study

The community were given a variety of scenarios to which they could tick the appropriate option to their situation. The scenarios were based around their diet, specifically related to Vegetarianism and Veganism.

The scenarios were as follows:

* I am Sang, but not Vegetarian or Vegan.
* I am a Vegetarian / Vegan Sang with little or no sun intolerance.
* I am Vegetarian / Vegan Sang, who has moderate to high sun intolerance.
* I am Sang, but in my normal diet I am Vegetarian.
* I am Sang, but in my normal diet I am Vegan.

The community was asked to select the scenario that applied to them.

## The Results

The results of the Survey did not surprise me. The results have been compiled below and are subject to be updated as soon as more results come in. These results are as it stands at present.

* **100%** of Voters answered: I am Sang, but **not** Vegetarian or Vegan.

This did not come of a surprise to me at all, as it is rather obvious that a creature that feeds on blood would have a predatory nature.

## Conclusion

I am aware that there are Vegetarian & Vegan Vampires in the world, as I have met one, but only one. From the results from the community survey, I believe I can safely suggest that Veganism and Vegetarianism in Sanguinarian Vampires is an **extremely rare phenomenon**.

This tells us that Sanguinarian Vampires are predatory by nature. In our Sanguinarian Bio Study we also noted that more than **55%** of the voters have problems digesting high iron Vegetables also. It would certainly appear that Sanguinarian Vampires prefer a meaty diet over a diet of vegetables.

Hungarian Vampires

### Hungary

In Hungary, the belief in vampires has existed since the Middle Ages, and bloodthirsty creatures are mentioned all over the Inquisition's notes. In the 12th century, Hungarian inquisitors interrogated a pagan shaman during a trial in the city of Sárospatak, who claimed the existence of a demon, which was called "izcacus" (which means blood drinker). That demon was described as a wild entity that could eventually be called to destroy the enemies of the pagans. The Hungarian experts estimate that this word's origin dates back to the period before the Hungarians' arrival in Europe in 895. The word has its roots in the ancient Turkish language, with which the Hungarians made contact during the late 8th century in the regions between Asia and Europe.

Sanguinarian Eye Study

So this in an interesting subject for me (Krystian Hamilton). On many occasions I have been informed by people I associate with at work, and at home that my eyes are an odd colour. My girlfriend has often claimed that my eyes have changed colour, saying sometimes they have got lighter and unusually vibrant, while other times she has said they look darker. I know several Sanguinarians in person, whom I have noticed also have very bright or very unique coloured eyes. Due to this, I decided to as part of my research projects look into this as a point of interest.

## The Study

As per other studies we have conducted, I launched a survey within our communities to find out if other sangs have had people approach them on this subject. We also had some interesting comments such as:

"I've often been told my eyes are 'bright/vibrant'"

"I have blue eyes with darker circles around the iris and brown" (I have this also)

"I have extremely dark rings around my iris and people have noticed my eyes seem to change colour"

The results of the survey were interesting. 100% of the Sanguinarians that answered the survey have some form of eye discolourment or unnaturally bright vibrant eyes.

## The Questions

The community was proposed the following scenarios, and asked to answer as honestly as possible. These scenarios are based on my own experiences with other Sanguinarians, and my own eyes.

* People have noticed I have two or more colours in my eyes, making them look unusual
* People have told me my eyes look unnaturally vibrant
* People have told me my eyes are an odd colour
* My eyes don't appear to be unusual in any way.

I was not particularly surprised by the results, as I myself have seen Sanguinarians with strange coloured eyes, an d even picked them out of a crowd based on their eyes.

## The Results

These are the results in so far, but are subject to change on new votes. Any new data will be updated into this document following processing:

* **60%** of Sanguinarians answered "People have noticed I have two or more colours in my eyes, making them look unusual.
* **40%** of Sanguinarians answered "People have told me my eyes look unnaturally vibrant".
* **00%** of Sanguinarians answered "My eyes don't appear to be unusual in any way".

This is an interesting result. The above data is subject to change, should the data change as the survey is still live. New data will be updated in this documents as soon as it becomes available.

## Conclusion

It would appear on current statistics that the majority of Sanguinarian Vampires have unusually vibrant or discoloured eyes that are enough to attract the attention of those around them.

This has been an interesting study, and I'm sure it will continue to be so as the results continue to come in.
Icelandic Vampires

The Icelandic Draugur (plural *draugar*) is usually translated as "ghost", but unlike mainland ghosts Icelandic undead were believed to be corporeal. Icelandic scholars such as Úlfhildur Dagsdóttir and Ármann Jakobsson have argued that the Icelandic draugur draugur has more in common with the eastern-European vampire than it has with most beings categorized as ghosts. According to Ármann medieval Icelandic undead can be put into two categories. The first being "Varðmenn" or guardians, which are undead that stay in a certain place, usually their burial mound or home, and protect it and their treasures from thieves and trespassers. These draugar are depicted as being driven by greed and unwillingness to part with their worldy belongings and are in many way similar to dragons. The second category are "tilberadraugar"(A tilberi is a type of undead in Icelandic folklore, a human rib given life by drinking the blood of a witch and then sent out to steal milk and money.), parasitic ghosts who roam the earth and harass the living and try to drive them mad or even kill them, often by dragging them into their graves, and thereby turn their victims into more draugar. This comparison of Icelandic draugar to vampires is not entirely new as it was also made by Andrew Lang in 1897 when he called the draugur Glámr in Grettir's Saga a vampire. There is also some similarity in the methods used to destroy draugar as those used against alleged vampires. Decapitation of the suspected corpse was common as was driving nails or sharp stakes into the body to pin it down or into the grave.

Celtic (Gaelic) Vampires

### Celtic (Gaelic) Nations

The malign and succubus-like *Baobhan sith* from the Scottish Highlands and the *Lhiannan Shee* of the Isle of Man, Scotland and Ireland are two fairy spirits with decidedly vampiric tendencies. Further Irish myths, alone or in combination, may have contributed to the storylines of Irish authors Sheridan Le Fanu and Bram Stoker:

* The *Dearg-due*[*dubious – discuss*] (literally "Red Blood Sucker" in Gaelic) - a beautiful young woman who commits suicide when forced into a marriage and then rises from her grave to seek revenge by killing her father and husband. The *Bruxas* of Portugal, which take the form of a bird at night and assail travellers, are other female vampiric spirits hostile to humans.
* The legend of *Droch-fhuil* (literally evil-blood), and the Castle of Droch-fhola (*Dún Droch-fhola*) which guarded the MacGillicuddy Reeks Mountains of County Kerry
* The legend of Abhartach - an evil tyrant who repeatedly escapes his grave to spread terror (and in some accounts to drink the blood of his subjects, to be one of the *neamh-mairbh* (un-dead), and to be killed only by with a sword of yew wood and to be buried upside-down)
Supplements and Medical Supplies

**Dietary Supplements**

There are many supplements one can use in a time of poor access to blood. Supplements such as Haem Iron or Deer blood capsules can help to supplement needs. Although this certainly doesn't replace feeding it helps survival in the worst of times.

* Haem Iron Capsules (https://www.deepbluehealth.co.nz/Haem-Iron?filter\_name=blood/)
* Deer Blood Capsules (https://www.deepbluehealth.co.nz/Deer-Blood?filter\_name=deer%2520blood/)

Albanian Vampires

### Albania

There are some vampire creatures in Albanian mythology. They include *shtriga* and *dhampir*. Shtriga is a vampiric witch in traditional Albanian folklore that sucks the blood of infants at night while they sleep, and then turns into a flying insect (traditionally a moth, fly or bee). Only the shtriga herself could cure those she had drained. The shtriga is often pictured as a woman with a hateful stare (sometimes wearing a cape) and a horribly disfigured face. The male noun for shtriga is shtrigu or shtrigan. Edith Durham recorded several methods traditionally considered effective for defending oneself from shtriga. A cross made of pig bone could be placed at the entrance of a church on Easter Sunday, rendering any shtriga inside unable to leave. They could then be captured and killed at the threshold as they vainly attempted to pass. She further recorded the story that after draining blood from a victim, the shtriga would generally go off into the woods and regurgitate it. If a silver coin were to be soaked in that blood and wrapped in cloth, it would become an amulet offering permanent protection from any shtriga.
Greek Vampires

### Greece

Bearing little resemblance to its Ancient Greek precursors, the modern Greek *vrykolakas* (from a Slavic word meaning "werewolf") has much in common with the European vampire. Belief in vampires commonly called βρυκόλακας, *vrykolakas*, though also referred to as καταχανάδες, *katakhanades*, on Crete persisted throughout Greek history and became so widespread in the 18th and 19th centuries that many practices were enforced to both prevent and combat vampirism. The deceased were often exhumed from their graves after three years of death and the remains placed in a box by relatives; wine was poured over them while a priest would read from scriptures.[30] However, if the body had not sufficiently decayed, the corpse would be labeled a *vrykolakas* and dealt with appropriately.

In Greek folklore, vampirism could occur through various means: being excommunicated, desecrating a religious day, committing a great crime, or dying alone. Other causes included having a cat jump across one's grave, eating meat from a sheep killed by a wolf, and being cursed. *Vrykolakas* were usually thought to be indistinguishable from living people, giving rise to many folk tales with this theme. Crosses and *antidoron* (blessed bread) from the church were used as wards in different places. To prevent vampires from rising from the dead, their hearts were pierced with iron nails while resting in their graves, or their bodies burned and the ashes scattered. Because the Church opposed burning people who had received the myron of chrismation in the baptism ritual, cremation was considered a last resort.
Are Sanguinarians in danger of extinction?

# Are Sanguinarian Vampires in Danger of Extinction?

We have dipped down into the basics of Sanguinarian vampires in past posts, and touched on how Sanguinarian vampires are people who feel the compulsion or the need to feed on human blood. Generally, Sanguinarians don’t drain their donors completely and they usually only feel the need for a teaspoon or two at a time. Still, even a lack of this small amount can cause some Sanguinarians to go into blood withdrawal overdrive and even cause them to have some pretty serious physical withdrawal symptoms.

Donors for Sanguinarian vampires are generally people that the vampire knows personally and has some sort of meaningful relationship with. They don’t necessarily need to drink from the donor’s neck, and they often choose for another form of getting access to the blood, such as a small slit in the donor’s palm. But you can imagine how difficult this must be for the vampire! Asking a good friend to donate you blood to drink on a regular basis. No, it’s not easy at all and this has brought into question whether or not Sanguinarian vampires are in danger of extinction. Without donors, Sanguinarians can become sick and the extent that the damage can cause is somewhat unknown.

Another theory that may support the extinction of Sanguinarian vampires is the fact that being a Sanguinarian vampire is something that one must be born into. In fact, the Sanguinarians pride themselves on this very fact. But, if donors continue to fade away, affecting the Sanguinarians that currently walk among us, will this not affect future generations of Sanguinarians in the way that it will lessen their numbers?

My take on the argument is that it’s certainly something to think about. But Sanguinarian vampires also tend to pride themselves on the fact that they are the only “real” vampires. Well, if this is true, then they are immortal, aren’t they? Kind of puts the whole theory of extinction to rest. Permanently.

Donoring to a Sanguinarian Vampire

**The question many people ask is how one becomes a donor to a vampire, and what risk does it entail. Keeping my perspective in the interest of safety to others it is important to mention that this does depend on the method of which you are donating. Now first-off, I believe this is an important time to spearate the role-players and lifestylers from the real vampires. Many will claim they are fine if they get their teaspoon of blood every 9 weeks. I wish....**

**Generally a Sanguinarian Vampire requires much more blood than this. And it is important to remember that genuine Sanguinarian Vampires are actually quite rare. Unfortunately there is much more in the way of roleplay and lifestyle on the internet these days. Finding the real thing amongst the heard of posers is a difficult task. Sorry guys, I'm not going to sugarcoat it for you. I personally know of about 12 genuine Sanguinarian Vampires in the whole of the UK and Europe.**

**Donors should always bear in mind that if a genuine Sanguinarian is looking to take blood, it will probably be somewhere around 100ml. Many of us have moved on to more modernised methods of blood extraction such as Needle and Vacutainer. Some still cut, although this actually provides little in the way of sustenance without seriously injuring a person. In the present day, it is recommended that Sanguinarian Vampires undergo some sort of phlebotomy training to aid their requirements.**

## **Safety First!**

**One very important matter is safety. No vampire should ever feed from a donor without first having them screened for dangerous diseases such as HIV, Hepatitis and others. Similarly, no donor should allow direct feeding (mouth to wound) if the vampire is not tested for diseases. Vampires are not immune to disease. Evidence has shown we are more resistant to disease than many, especially when properly fed and will often fight off infections quickly, but we are not immune to HIV or other deadly diseases. For the safety of the donor, and yourself, always submit to proper health screening before commiting. It is recommended that both donor and vampire are tested every 3 months, as a person's health can change.**
Sanguinarian Blood Consumption Study

Recently a poll was held in our community discussion groups. The voters were asked a set of questions that relate to the minimum amount of blood they must consume to remain in a state of good health. There is a rumour throughout the online Vampire community, that Sanguinarians only consume a teaspoon of blood at a time - which I know is false in my case (Krystian Hamilton), So as part of my studies, I decided to find out what others consume.

## Results from Community Survey

Below are the results of the survey conducted in the community. The voters were presented with the below options, and this was how they voted:

* 57.14 percent of voters answered: In excess of a pint per week.
* 14.30 percent of voters answered: 300ml per week.
* 14.28 percent of voters answered: 200ml per week.
* 14.28 percent of voters answered: 50ml per week.

## Additional Results

Sanguinarian members of the community where then asked to answer how much they would consume if they had access to as much blood as they want.

* 50% of voters answered they would consume over a pint of blood per week. One individual in this 75% said they would consume one pint every 1 - 2 days if they could get it.
* 16.66% of voters answered they would consume 1/2 a pint, to 1 pint per week.
* 16.66% of voters answered they would consume 200ml of blood per week. (Approx 20 blood test vials
* 16.66% of voters answered they would consume 100ml of blood per week. (Approx 10 blood test vials)

**Note:** This would seem to indicate that the average Sanguinarian Vampire would be likely to consume a pint or more a week if they had access to enough blood to maintain this amount.

## Conclusion

The above results would indicate that almost **two thirds** of Sanguinarians need to consume in excess of a pint of blood per week. The lowest amount voted for was **50ml** per week. Even this far exceeds the rumour of only needing a teaspoon of blood to stay healthy.

Unfortunately, as mentioned in previous articles, you must be aware that you will come across individuals who are posing as Sanguinarian Vampires or role-playing. These people often do not understand the actual realities of the Sanguinarian condition, and what is required to feed it. Our scientific studies, along with external studies conducted by other communities are dedicated to reaching the scientific truths while filtering out the fantasy and fictional elements on the subject of Vampirism.
The Indoguration

Dognald J. Trump

LOTS of dogs and cats

**The Indoguration** was a 3-hour charity livestream benefiting the Lange Foundation. It aired alongside Donald Trump's inauguration as US President on January 20, 2017 and was repeated on a loop for the rest of the day. The stream featured footage of dogs and cats and was a parody of the presidential inauguration.

The event was hosted by Woof Blitzer and Anderson Pooper (Kevin and Alex). Most of the stream was footage of puppies playing on the set. There were several preproduced bits, including performances by 3 Dogs Down, Corgi Keith, and the Rocattes. Barottweiler Obama, Joe Bidog, Paw Ryan, and several other puns made appearances. Then it was revealed that Catamir Putin was pulling all the strings.
Caution in Blood Drinking

**What can happen if the blood you are drinking isn't clean?**

For those of us who drink blood, we need to be aware of the health risks that come with it. Most of the bacterias and other pathogens found in blood are relatively harmless and most sangs build resistance to these rather fast. However there are some illnesses that if contracted are fatal, or lead to complications in qaulity of life.

* Prion diseases
* Viruses such as HIV, Hepatitis, Herpes and some others.
* Bacterias

When feeding from a new source or blood donor, it is always a good idea to make sure you know where the blood is coming from, and that it is safe for you to consume.

If you are feeding from a donor, ask them to arrange a blood test with their doctor and ask for evidence of the test results. This way you keep yourself safe.

The Attack episode 73 aired on 24 Aug 2015. It was hosted by Kevin Pereira and Alex Corea.

Alex spent the first 30 minutes of the show trying to steer the topic toward "white history" for some reason.

KP was very distraught about his life and circumstances.
Alex showed off his collection of historical deadly frisbees that have been passed down in his family.

In The Rundown, Blythe discussed:

* Nintendo filed a patent for a new console with no optical disc drive, just a cartridge slot
* A giant wooly Yoshi amiibo
* New Hearthstone cards
* UK government is going to charge electric cars through the road

Kevin sarcastically opened packs of new Hearthstone cards on stream in an attempt to gain viewers. The show streambombed **TimTheTatman**.
Green Light District

**Green Light District** is an occasional segment on The Attack where games from Steam Greenlight are discussed and evaluated. The **attkGreen** and **attkRed** emotes were created for use with this segment, but are now used more generally in chat. The segment first appeared in 81: Los' Quinceanera.
Kyrrax & Krrerok

Kyrrax et Krrerok étaient les deux plus puissants corbeaux de l'effroi découverts par Valnein Zappécrou lors de la campagne des Flèches d'Arakk. Capturées par les troupes de l'Asile, ils subirent les expériences de Valnein et devinrent gangrenés. Il en garda un en tant que monture, Krrerok, et offrit l'autre, Kyrrax, à son ancien maître, Satedal, lors de leurs retrouvailles en Azsuna.
Férule de la lune glacée

Pierre

Sacré

*Un bâton de culte lunaire de type Équinoxe. Legs des grandes prêtresses officiant au temple d'Elune de la principauté de Zin-Falor, la légende veut que son croissant soit taillé dans une énorme pierre de lune. On ignore si la "lune glacée" fait référence à l'Enfant Bleu, ou simplement à la Dame Blanche vue à travers les cieux glaciaux du Berceau-de-l'Hiver.*
Alanoa

### Origine

Sortie d'un oeuf, elle fut offerte à Tueng par l'Ordre du Serpent-Nuage pour célébrer l'aide qu'il apporta à l'Ordre pour vaincre les Serpents-Nuages de Lei Shen.

*Serpent-Nuage femelle, elle est fidèle à Tueng et lui sert autant de monture pour se déplacer que de compagnon lors de ses voyages.*

History of the VDH

**Re-launching the community (20/04/2020)**

Our community was disbanded in 2016 for reasons that will not be shared here. We have decided to reconstruct the community from the ground up.

Join our community on Facebook

**Our History up until now:**

The Vampire & Donor Hub was founded in 2014. Our aim was to create a community network for Sanguinarian Vampire's & their donors that offered reliable help and support to newer, less experienced vampires and donors, whilst also sheltering them from the misinformation and misrepresentation from many of the other communities out their on the internet.

During our 2 years online, we have hosted several community meetups in London, Brighton, Devon and Cornwall.

Our members of present seem to be happy with the level of support and resource information we provide, and we will continue to try and provide this and more. Future events will be posted in the blogs section of the Wiki.
What exactly is a real Vampire?

## **So what exactly is a Sanguinarian Vampire?**

**Sanguinarian Vampires are your classic blood feeding Vampires. They need to consume human or Animal blood in order to remain healthy. The causes of Sanguinarian Vampirism can be attributed to very few physical conditions, although it is generally accepted there are many forms of Sanguinarian Vampirism with different causes.**

**Vampiric forms of Porphyria are caused by problem with the body’s ability to produce haem, a vital component of haemoglobin. It is beleived by many scientists that Porphyria may have been the disease that started popular Vampire Folkelore. Not only do Porphyria sufferers crave blood, but they blister and burn in sunlight, and are extremely intolorent to allicin (found in garlic). In some cases gums can recede, which can make the teeth look larger and fang like. This is the result excessive amounts of specific hormones in the body.**

**It is believed by many, that vampirism can have physical or non-physical causes, and sometimes a bit of both. Very little is known about any form of vampirism, even the ones the scientists do know about. Typically vampires that do not feed become violently unwell the more deficient their body becomes. The subject will become physically weak, discoloured, suffer with symptoms of mental illness due to impaired brain function and experience animalistic and predatory urges. Some cases can result in hospitalisation if malnourishment continues.**

**Typically a vampire will suffer from few health problems if they have a stable supply of blood, while those who do not may experience constant health issues.**

**Sanguinarian Vampires need blood as regular humans need food. Lack of feeding results in a poor quality of life and crippling illness. This of course depends on the cause of their need for blood and how promenant it is. Typical symptoms caused by lack of feeding include, but are not limited to:**

**Insomnia**
Lethargy

Abdominal Cramps

Inability to Digest Food

Neurological Depression

Neuropathic Pains

Tremors

Cravings for Blood or Blood Related Products

Hypersensitivity

Paler Skin

Dark Circles under the eyes

**Some symptoms of Sanguinarian Vampirism are permenant and never relieve such as sensitivity to sunlight, allicin and visual sensitivity to bright light as well as hypersensitivity. This can include all 5 senses.**
Cœur d'Hargrund

*L'existence de ce coeur élémentaire particulièrement puissant est arrivée aux oreilles de Gulrig Forgepoing en l'an 25 par les dires de certains excavateurs sombrefers opérant dans la Gorge des Vents Brûlants. Il envoya alors un nain de confiance, Belaf Roche-Hurlante, le récupérer pour forger une arme surpuissante.*

## Détails

Le nom "Hargrund" ne vient pas de l'élémentaire dont est issu ce cœur, contrairement à ce qui est habituellement le cas, mais de l'arme qui fut forgée à partir de celui-là.
Ragagnac Brasse-l'Orage

Pugiliste

Brasseur et maître des runes Marteau-Hardi, toujours accompagné d'animaux de bât transportant ses tonnelets.

## Description physique

Nain à la peau sombre, tannée par les éléments, mais son bronzage propre aux nains ayant arpenté les étendues sauvages est plus terne que pour le Marteau-Hardi moyen.

Tatouages nains nombreux, mêlés à des symboles taurens sur toutes les parties visibles de son corps.

Détail caché aux non-experts en magie : une rune de feu Sombrefer archaïque, tatouée et dissimulée sous son épaisse barbe rousse, tout autour de la bouche.

## Personnalité

Jovial et curieux, ce Nain semble passer le plus clair de son temps de passage en ville à proposer ses breuvages.

Il n'a d'allégeance que pour son clan et plus généralement pour la subsistance des Marteau-Hardi comme nation naine, mais sans animosité aucune envers les humains et Barbe-de-Bronze avec lesquels ils combattit jadis, pas plus que pour les sages issus de la Horde qui ont su rompre avec Garrosh Hurlenfer.

## Histoire

Vétéran de l'expédition en Kalimdor, Ragagnac est un brasseur survivant du clan de Castagnol, apparenté aux Marteau-Hardi, dont le territoire se situait aux confins des montagnes du nord-est d'Alterac.

Les campagnes contre la Légion et le Fléau en Kalimdor ont pour lui été une occasion de tisser des liens avec les elfes et les taurens, s'inspirant de leur savoir sans renier ses origines et sa passion pour la bonne bière.

Il fait désormais partie des quelques maîtres des runes à arpenter les Royaumes de l'Est.

## Back to episode list

The Attack episode 221 aired on December 5, 2016. It was hosted by Alex Corea and Erin Steeby.

Corrado and couple random people fell over a cooler very slowly and died.

Joey presented a Techamendations segment comparing Apple TV, Amazon Fire Stick, and Roku Ultra. This somehow devolved into Alex and Erin being covered in caramel sauce and popcorn by the Yeti.
Le Haut-Conseil Zappécrou

Trik Zappécrou

Trixie Zappécrou

## Histoire

La création du Haut-Conseil Zappécrou date du Cataclysme, lorsque plusieurs membres importants de la famille Zappécrou revinrent à l'Asile. Jusque là, Pilbein avait principalement gouverné seul, prenant conseil auprès de sa cousine Trixie, dont l'autorité était reconnue dans l'Asile. Cependant, afin que l'autorité des Zappécrou fraîchement arrivés soit reconnue par tous, Pilbein créa le Haut-Conseil pour les regrouper et en faire des conseillers capable de prendre des décisions à petite échelle et de commander aux membres standards de l'Asile.

### Third Studio

#### The Attack's final years

On the 25 Oct 2017 episode of Front Page, Kevin had a heart-to-heart with the community about the company's dire financial situation. The content of the stream was to be restructured so that there would be a lot more content each day, and it would be geared toward building the community so that the company could become self-sufficient in the time periods between large projects. The new show Content was begun the following week, and The Attack's return was contingent on meeting Patreon goals. On 4 December 2017, they reached the Patreon goal of $8000 to make a new episode of The Attack to which it was a holiday special and it aired on December 13th, 2017. All good things must come to an end, in March of 2018, The Attack ended its run on Twitch after three years of live content. Thanks for the memories over the years.

La Cime inversée

Les Pénitents

Église de l'Équilibre universel

La Cime inversée est un complexe de grottes situées dans les profondeurs des Bassins de la Vision, eux-mêmes situés sous la Cime des Esprits aux Pitons-du-Tonnerre et habités par des morts-vivants depuis leur accueil par Magatha Totem-Sinistre.

L'archevêque Maldictus y fut placé suite à son extraction du Monastère écarlate durant le Cataclysme. Depuis, ses Pénitents en ont fait leur "Sanssaint-Siège".
Bombe de mana miniature

Orgrimmar

*La miniaturisation des bombes de mana jadis utilisées par les forces de Kael'thas intéressa grandement le Chef de guerre Hurlenfer. Thalen Tissechant est connu pour avoir été le premier à en mettre en point.*

*Celle-ci est le fruit des recherches personnelles du Telluriste cramoisi, à partir des plans dérobés aux ingénieurs de la Horde.*
Mamie Razkan

Mamie Razkan est une druidesse d'Aviana taurène, membre du cercle cénarien.

Suite à l'invasion de la Legion, cette ancienne réside désormais en Haut-Roc auprès de la tribu Corne-Céleste. Elle essaye aussi de former Kythra à ses futurs responsabilités.

## Histoire

Originaire d'un clan traditionaliste des Milles Pointes, Aigle-de-la-Terre, Razkan s'exila en Féralas pour se former auprès des kaldorei. Elle devint druidesse de la Serre quelques mois après.

Pour reprendre le contrôle de son clan allié aux totems-sinistres, elle épousa Vent-de-plaine puis rejoint son organisation pacifiste. Elle prônait déjà une paix de compromis en Kalimdor, entre taurens et elfes de la nuit, mais conserve de cette époque une tendance isolationniste vis-à-vis des Réprouvés et Elfes de sang. Paradoxalement, avant la Croisade d'Argent, elle aida des exilés thalassiens (qui s'étaient nommés les *Fils de Quel'Thalas*) à rejoindre la Horde.

Puis pendant huit années, elle porta la charge d'ancienne et officier d'un cercle tauren dédié à la Terre-Mère, organisé en clan.

Elle aida les Taunkas puis les Roharts, publiant des rapports technocratiques aussi volumineux qu'inutiles en vue d'introduire des quotas de pêches aux populations locales sous contrôle des druides.

Son clan d'origine fut détruit par le Cataclysme, et sa sœur Razaka décéda.

En Pandarie, elle se réfugia dans la formation des jeunes qui, de manière à la fois amicale et sarcastique, lui donnèrent le titre de "Mamie". Ses capacités physiques s'affaiblirent grandement à cette époque bien qu'elle ne renonça pas à aider l'ordre du Serpent-Nuage.

Elle participa à la lutte contre Garrosh, spécialisée dans l'observation aérienne. Elle tenta de reconstruire son clan à Gorgrond, sous le nom d'Aigles-de-Fer, mais celui-ci finit manipulé par la Horde de Fer.

Avec la disparition formelle de son cercle des Pitons voué à la Terre-Mère, elle s'envole pour ce qui devait être son dernier voyage, vers l'antique Val'Sharah.
