Vampires

### Behavior

Personality based, unless they have gone a while without feeding, in which they become aggressive, and a natural sense to survive

### Distinction

An immortal being, that needs to feed on blood to survive.

## Creation

Vampires date all the way back to 2640 B.C, with only one remaining Ancient One. They were created when two lovers dung an underground home to hide since the two of them being together was forbidden. When creating this tunnel, they uncovered a tomb with the remains of a long deceased messiah, Alexander Ono-Stag. Within his tomb was a deadly disease that infected both the lovers but because they had remained underground for many months, the disease mutated within their bodies and made them immortal. Because Alexander was said to have great power, whatever disease he had retained its power, giving the couple incredible abilities that surpass any other living creature, until the last Werewolf came out of hiding and repopulated their kind.

## 2640 B.C

After the lovers discovered their new powers, they took to the surface to face their oppressors but quickly found out their weakness to fire. They discovered their weakness was because the disease was trapped for so long that it couldn't adapt to the sun. They returned to Alexander's tomb and using his bones, crafted a magical ring that they believed would protect them from the sun's harmful ray. The ring would later be called the Interdiu Ring, with interdiu meaning daytime in Latin. Their new rings worked and they fought back against those who sought to harm them.

## 1435 B.C

The lovers continued to live out their immortal lives together until one night, the towns folk had a Rabbi commit a vile sin and directly bless their water supply. They then took the water and marched over to where the lovers stayed. With the blessed water, they drenched the female lover and set her ablaze, killing her. The male lover slaughtered the rest of the towns folk and went into hiding, never to be seen for many years.

## 1035 B.C

After the remaining lover, later called the Ancient One, came out of hiding and tried to make a somewhat normal life for himself. Unbeknownst to him, the town he had killed as revenge for killing his lover was made up of Werewolves which led to their existence being made and them being hunted, driving them into hiding. He eventually found the last Werewolf, but decided not to kill him. Instead, they became friends but that friendship wouldn't last.

## 1034 B.C

One night, the Ancient One discovered the disease inside him had changed his body, causing him to no longer need a daytime ring and not be affected by his original weaknesses. He also discovered his blood had magical properties, with one being regenerative. If he were use his blood on a human, it would heal their wounds. However, when he fed a human his blood, he found out that this caused them unimaginable pain and would only stop after a full 24 hours or they drink human blood that isn't theirs. If they wait, his diseased blood would leave their system and they would return to normal, but if they drank human blood, they fully transition into a lesser version of the Ancient One. This led to him unintentional creating the first Elder Vampire. In the following months, he went on to create seven more Elder Vampires.

## 1022 B.C

Vampires began to grow in number and soon, the Ancient One became a king-like figure to the Vampires, with them swearing loyalty to him. His Werewolf friend however, began to grow concerned with the growing numbers. The Ancient One, or Sebastian, didn't share the same concern, but he allowed his friend to recreate his species. Sebastian did not know that this would lead to a war.

## 1000 B.C

The Vampires were not happy with Sebastian's friendship with a Werewolf so they betrayed him. They staked him, thinking it would kill him. It turned out he had been immune to death but they burned him and encased him in the very tomb Alexander was in. He would remain there for centuries before being released by Frederick. Vampires continued to spread their disease across the world.

## 100 A.D

Vampirism slowly began to stop spreading as a civil war between them had begun. Because Sebastian was trapped in a tomb and couldn't maintain order within the Vampires, the Elders each broke off from each other and made different factions.

## 1223 A.D

Siblings Luther Kingsly, Bailey Gaylord, and Frederick Figelhorn were turned into Vampires. However, unknown to Frederick, his mother was a Werewolf, and as such, being born one. However, he never realized until many centuries later.

## Types of Vampires

A Vampires age determines their strength and their resistance level to their weaknesses.

### Transitioning "Vampires"

Theses are people who have ingested Vampire blood are almost both at the same time. These people will experience pain and a slight increase to their senses, and only when ingesting human blood will they fully become a Vampire. After 24 hours, when the blood leaves their systems, the pain will stop and they become normal humans again.

### Newborn Vampires (Babies)

These are Vampires who are freshly turned and are at the bottom of the strength level. Newborn Vampires are highly vulnerable to sunlight and fire. Their strength is also below that of a Werewolf.

### Novice Vampires

These are Vampires who've been around for 100-400 years. They learned how to control themselves but still are vulnerable to sunlight and fire. They are still weaker than Werewolves.

### Aged Vampires

These are Vampires who are between 400 and 1000 years old. They begin to slowly become more resisted to sunlight and are on par with Werewolves that aren't Alphas or Bodyguards.

### Old Vampires (Old Ones)

These are Vampires who are between 1000 and 3000 years. They are more resistant to sunlight and are stronger than Werewolves that aren't Alphas or Bodyguards. They are the third highest form of "rank" for Vampires.

### Elder Vampires (The Elders)

These are Vampires who are over 3000 years old. They are almost just as strong as Alphas and easily outmatch every other Werewolf or Vampire in strength and speed. They are almost completely immune to sunlight and their compulsion can affect Werewolves. They are the second highest form of "rank" for Vampires. They are also the first and only Vampires to be created by Sebastian.

### The Ancient One

The first ever Vampire to ever exist and is over 4000 years old. He is completely immune to sunlight, fire, and even death itself. His strength is unmatched by all and his compulsion affects both Werewolves and Vampires that aren't Elders. He is the highest form of "rank" for Vampires and was viewed as the King of Vampires.

## Features

Not every Vampire looks the same. Their Iris's will change to reflect their personality.

### White

If a Vampire has white eyes, they have yet to take a human or Werewolf life. They are completely innocent of murder. This, however, does not mean they don't drink human blood.

### Yellow

When a Vampire's eyes are yellow, they have taken at least one life. However, they do not kill out of joy, they do it as self-defense. They are also more likely to have a kind personality.

### Orange

Orange eyes indicate they are a killer, but a merciful one. They would be considered a murderer, but also a vigilante at the same time.

### Red

Vampires with these eyes are not as friendly. They are the exact opposite of a vigilante and will usually kill without mercy. They are a menace among the Vampire world.

### Black

A black eyed Vampire is cold blooded murderer, killing with no remorse at all. The downfall to this however, is they can be burned by Old Holy Water.

## Abilities

* **Increased Strength:** Vampires possess strength beyond any type of life form. As an example, they have the strength greater than 100 strongmen.
* **Increased Speed:** Vampires move at such great speeds, they appear as a blur to humans. Their speed is comparable to half that of a passenger plane (which normally fly between 500-600 mph).
* **Increased Reflexes:** Vampires have reflexes faster than anything, being able to dodge or catch things faster than a second. This, paired with their speed, makes them hard to fight. However, they are vulnerable to distractions.
* **Increased Senses:** Vampires can sense when someone is looking at them and can even tell the difference between humans, Vampires, and Werewolves.
* **Increased Agility:** Vampires are more agile than anything, being able to preform very challenging acrobatic moves with ease. They also exceed in any form of vaulting or free-running.
* **Increased Jump:** Vampires have the ability to jump up to 13 stories tall buildings.
* **Increased Durability:** Vampires are very durability, with even young Vampires being able to shrug off small injuries, like punches, kicks, and slight trauma, but not gunshots or stabs, which will hurt them, but they will still heal. Older Vampires become more resilient to major trauma, being able to shrug off gunshots and stabs.
* **Increased Healing:** Vampires heal faster than anything, to the point even their blood can heal wounds on humans or Werewolves, whether it's ingested or placed on their wounds.
* **Blood:** Vampires get a boost all their abilities when they feed on human or Werewolf blood. This however, is only temporary.
* **Fangs:** Vampires have fangs that stick out from the top of their mouth that allows them to tear into flesh with ease. Their fangs also allow them to tear deep, allowing for blood to be more easy to drink.
* **Compulsion:** Vampires are able to compel humans into doing what ever they say. They are however unable to compel Werewolves or other Vampires. Elder's are able to compel Werewolves while Sebastian is the only Vampire that can compel both Werewolves and Vampires that aren't Elder's.
* **Immortality:** Vampires are immortal, and as such, don't physically age. They do get stronger over time and once a Vampire reaches 3000 years old, they technically become an Elder, although they don't officially gain the title unless one of the already existing Vampire die or give up their title. They also become immune to more thing with age, like Sebastian did with sunlight and wood.
* **Telepathy:** Vampires have a slight form of telepathy, allowing them to look into someone's head and either view memories, or share their own. Vampires can do this to both Werewolves and Vampires, though the Vampire doing it has to have a stronger mind that the others and the other has to be weakened to a point where they can't resist it. Alternatively, Vampires can share or view memories if the recipient is willing, and "opens" their mind to the Vampire. Older Vampires have harder minds to break, while younger ones don't.

## Weaknesses

* **Sunlight:** Because the disease Vampires are infected with was buried, it is very vulnerable to sunlight. They will burn in the sun until the fully catch ablaze and burn to death. This was counteracted with the creation of a daytime ring, and in the special case of Sebastian, became immune to the sun.
* **U.V Light:** Because the sun gives off Ultra-Violet rays, they will burn Vampires to the point of setting them on fire and killing them. Daytime rings protect them from this and Sebastian is immune.
* **Wood:** Wood is one way to kill a Vampire permanently. The reason behind this is Alexander Ono-Stag was killed with a piece of wood containing the disease.
* **Holy Water:** Holy water will block a Vampire's compulsion but not physically harming them. However, if it's the Old Holy Water blessed in 1435 B.C, it'll burn only a heartless Vampire. The second kind of holy water blessed in 1347 A.D will reveal if someone is a Vampire and if they've taken a life yet. If it's dropped on a human with Vampire blood in their system, the water will stick to the person. If it's dropped on a Vampire who never took a life, it'll float above wherever it was dropped. If the Vampire did take a life, the water will evaporate upon touching their skin.
* **Heart Extraction:** A Vampire cannot continue living if their heart is removed. However, as a Vampire grows older, their heart becomes harder to remove. Sebastian's heart can't be removed.
* **Decapitation:** If a Vampire is decapitated, they will die. However, as a Vampire grows older, their body becomes more durable and as such, are harder to decapitate. Sebastian cannot be decapitated.
* **Broken Neck:** When a Vampire has their neck broken, they will be unconscious for some time, the time depending on their age.
* **Fire:** Fire is a Vampire's greatest weakness as it can permanently destroy the disease they are infected with and as such, kill them.
* **Alpha Bite:** If a Vampire is bitten by an Alpha, they will slowly get sick, before dying. Death time depends on the Vampire's age and where they were bit.
