Vampires are a type of undead post-human monster that must consume blood to survive.

## Awareness of Vampires

### Human

Throughout most of history, the majority of people remained ignorant or denied the existence of vampires.

Vampires were considered mythical creatures for people of the 21st century.

Nevertheless, there were people who believed or knew of their existence.

Until the beginning of the 20th century, vampires were still somewhat known, but for some unknown reason, fewer and fewer believed in vampires, so that in the 21st century almost no one believed.

### Supernatural Creatures

Most supernatural beings know about the existence of vampires.

## Vampirism

### Creation

To create a vampire, an existing vampire must drink a mortal's blood and then die.

At some point the mortal's soul is revived in their corpse and must drink human blood to be fully transformed otherwise they die again.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Super Strength**: Vampires possessed superhuman strength, although the exact extent and limits of this power are debatable and often vary from individual to individual, as is the case with humans; either due to their age, the supernatural blood they had consumed, or how long they had been a vampire. Some vampires were able to warp metal with their hands, while others were held back by wooden doors.
* **Super speed**: Vampires possess a supernatural speed so fast that they appear nearly invisible.
* **Supernatural agility**: Vampires possessed greater athleticism and agility than normal humans, and could overcome great heights and distances.
* **Immortality**: Vampires are already undead and are therefore immortal and are very difficult to kill they are also immune to disease and immune to many drugs.
	+ **Invulnerability**:As undead, vampires could endure almost unlimited bodily damage and survive as long as they were not decapitated or put through the heart (see #Weaknesses ). Their bodies seemed more resistant to blunt force trauma than humans and could shrug off mortal wounds. However, some damage can have visible or debilitating effects.
	+ **Regeneration**: Vampires have enhanced healing that almost heals. Healing can be slowed for certain weaknesses.
* **Super senses**: Vampires were mainly nocturnal and had enhanced hearing, smell and night vision. They were particularly sensitive to the smell of blood and could distinguish between individual humans and vampires by their scent
* **Emotions**: Vampires have enhanced emotions such as love, joy, and happiness are enhanced for vampires and allow them to live life more intensely. This ability allows vampires, regardless of their age, to feel emotions at their peak. Conversely, sadness, depression, guilt, fear and anger are also amplified. Moreover, vampires up to a conscience age can turn off their humanity. When they turn off their humanity, they can block out their more negative emotions such as fear and guilt, they can feed and kill without remorse, compete against any opponent without fear, and rid themselves of painful feelings such as sadness, loss, depression, and shame.
* **Pyschic Powers**: Vampires have psyschic powers.
	+ **Mind Compulsion**: Vampires can manipulate dreams and create hallucinations, but can't create supernatural beings like werewolves.
	+ **Telepathy** :Vampires have a limited form of telepathy that allows them to easily enter the minds of humans and, with more effort, the minds of other supernatural beings.
		- **Dream Manipulation** : Vampires can also use their telepathy to control dreams and the subconscious mind.
		- **Illusions**: Vampires can give younger vampires illusions.

### Maker Abilities

Vampires that turn other vampires have special abilities.

* **Mental Control**: Creators have the ability to mentally control their created vampires. They can "summon" their offspring by speaking the vampire's name aloud to call him/her. Regardless of where he/she is, the offspring will telepathically hear the voice of their creator calling their name. They can also give commands and sense when the vampire is in great physical pain.

### Enhanced powers

Vampires develop more powers the older they get

* **Invisibility**: Older vampires are able to make themselves invisible.
* **Atmokinesis/Weather Control/Manipulation** : Very Old Vampires are able to control the weather within limits. They can and have the supernatural ability to affect meteorological energy patterns and create rain, wind, hail, lightning, snow, sleet, fog, and temperature changes that allow them to create fog, haze, and mist out of thin air and direct a strong storm, control the direction and strength of the wind, or even call down lightning to strike its enemies and return the weather to normal later.
* **Elemental Manipulation: The supernatural ability to control and manipulate the elements of air, earth, fire, water, lightning, etc.**
	+ **Pyrokinesis** : Elder Vampires have control over fire and can summon heat and fire with their minds.
	+ **Electrokinesis** : Elder Vampires can summon lightning in their palms.

## Weaknesses

* Wood: Vampires are extremely susceptible to wood so a stake to the heart or head will kill them.
* Decapitation: Dismembering, severing, or removing a vampire's head results in immediate and permanent death.
* Heart Extraction: Removing a vampire's heart results in permanent death.
* Sunlight: Vampires are vulnerable to the UV rays of the sun that burns them. Older vampires can resist the sun for a few minutes.
* Invitation: Vampires could not enter a private residence, including houses and apartments; otherwise they would encounter an invisible barrier. Areas accessible to the public were not protected as such. If a vampire is unconscious he can enter it and when he wakes up he will scream in pain and flee.
* **Vervain**: Exposure to or ingestion of vervain causes a vampire to become so severely feverish and weak that it can even affect their healing abilities. In addition, physical contact with vervain burns a vampire's skin. Vampires cannot force anyone who has ingested or is carrying vervain. Many vampires drink small amounts of diluted vervain to protect themselves from the Urvampire's compulsion and to reduce its effects when used against them by enemies.
* Sacred objects: Sacred items can weaken vampires.
