"Rebel Vampires" Book 3

**Vampires** are undead, immortal beings who rely on the blood of humans, cattle, or animals to survive. They serve as the primary supernatural creatures in the books.

Vampires are one of the most powerful supernatural creatures on earth. They are some of the known supernatural beings, with the others being shapeshifters, werewolves, human-vampire hybrids, and plain immortals.

They are based on the depiction of vampires from the *Twilight* universe.

## **Origin**

Not much is known about the origin of vampires. They seem to have popped into existence when the Earth was created, meaning they have been around for billions of years.

At first, all that existed from them was a liquefied substance called morphoeus, which later served as their venom.

The first vampire was a man named Altheromoteaktus, who was created once man had evolved from chimpanzees into homo sapiens. Altheromoteaktus ingested some morphoeus and it transformed him into a supernatural creature that would later be named ‘vampire’.

Altheromoteaktus created more of his kind and vampires slowly made their way through history, right up to the very present.

## **Characteristics (physical appearance)**

### **Overall look**

Vampires have refined physical features that are intended to lure in prey. For example, their scent and voice.

### **Skin**

Their skin is textured with a rock like substance that is much stronger and harder that granite. But due to the delicacy of their skin, when it is exposed to sunlight, it slowly starts to incinerate until the vampire is nothing but dust. However when it is cloudy or rainy, this won’t happen.

### **Eyes**

A vampire’s eyes deviate in colour. This is how one can tell what kind of vampire it is. Vampires who feed on human blood retain a burgundy colour in their eyes, whereas a vampire who feeds on cattle will retain blood red eyes. If a vampire were to feed on another animal like an insect or a cat, their eyes will retain a lavender colour. When a vampire goes for a long period of time without feeding, their eyes, no matter what type of blood they feed on, will turn black, meaning they are thirsty.

### **Teeth**

A vampire’s teeth are their greatest weapon. When not feeding, a vampire’s teeth look like normal teeth, only extremely whiter than normal that they shine. When feeding, two sharp fangs extend from the slits in their front two teeth. The fangs retract when they are done feeding.

## **Nutrition**

Vampires rely on the substance of blood to keep themselves alive as well as fed. The blood they drink can vary from humans to cattle to other animals.

The most common source of food for vampires is the blood of humans. The vampire bites the human and the venom in their saliva glands will inject into the humans system, allowing the human to be paralyzed and the vampire to drain them without any struggle.

However, other vampires have discovered that other sources of blood have been effective. Some vampires choose to feed on cattle or other animals in fear of harming humans.

Blood is the only thing vampires can survive on. They can ingest human food and drinks to blend into human society, however after 1 minute they cough it all up as their body physically can’t digest it anymore.

## **Venom**

Venom is the liquid that paralyses a vampire’s prey. The venom is a metallic silver liquid that contains basically every poison in existence times 10 and is described as similar to snake venom.

In a vampire’s mouth, venom moves and pools and it’s also what they swallow, just as humans swallow saliva.

Their venom is transformative to humans, but it is deadly to animals and shapeshifters.

## **Supernatural Abilities**

Vampires not only have the ability to feed on the blood of the living, but they also have enhanced superhuman abilities.

* **Superhuman Strength:** Vampires possess superhuman strength. Their strength is extremely powerful, with a single punch from a vampire being enough to break a human jaw and most likely disconnect it from the face. They can crush metal with ease and are strong enough to carry piles of bricks as well as any other heavy objects like logs. They can lift a small car and crush bricks and iron. However their strength has limits, as they can’t crack the earth and can’t lift a train or aircraft.
* **Superhuman Speed:** Vampires also possess superhuman speed, and they can run up to 300 mph. When a vampire runs, they run so fast that they become a blur to the human eye and could easily outrun explosions. They could make it around an entire race track in 2 seconds and can swim to the other end of a pool in about 3-2 seconds. Their speed is greatly useful for catching their prey.
* **Heightened Senses:** Vampires have a heightened sense of smell, touch, hearing, seeing and taste. Their sense of smell is described as being greater than a dog’s, and they can smell blood and other things from over a mile away. But they can’t smell things halfway across the world. They can see in total darkness and can easily see through the glass at an interrogation room. They can feel things below the ground when they touch the ground and can feel organs and a heart beating. They can taste all the ingredients in a type of food and can taste sweetness in blood.
* **Jump:** Vampires can jump incredible distances and can easily jump higher than the tallest trees. They can’t jump all the way to space.
* **Transformation:** Vampires can transform a human into a vampire by biting them and spreading their venom.
* **Immortality:** Vampires are immortal beings and do not age. Their physical appearance stays the same the minute they are changed, only a few features improve. They have no limit for how old they are, as they do not die unless they are killed by another vampire or a human with enough knowledge about them.

## **Transformation**

Vampires can transform a human into a vampire if they wish to have a companion or just want to extend their species.

When a vampire bites a human, their venom is injected through saliva glands in the vampire’s mouth and the venom slowly spreads through the human’s system. The venom kills all the cells in the human’s system. During this time, the human will be in indescribable pain, described with the feeling of being burned alive.

It takes 3 days for the venom to fully spread and transform the human. After the first day, the human passes out and is effectively killed, with the venom spreading through them slowly and transforming them. After 2 more days, the human will emerge as a vampire.

## **Weaknesses**

Vampires have an array of weaknesses:

* **Sunlight:** Vampires will incinerate when exposed to sunlight. Their skin starts to smoke and then catches fire, and the vampire will slowly burn.
* **Garlic:** Vampires cannot stand garlic, and when they smell it, they become poisoned and can’t survive unless they immediately consume blood.
* **Nuclear Radiation:** This is likely never to happen, but vampires are vulnerable to nuclear radiation and will explode when in close contact with it.
* **Decapitation:** Vampires can be killed via ripping off their head. However it takes vampire strength to rip off their heads.
* **Crucifixes:** Originally thought to be a myth, vampires are repelled by crucifixes, being that they are thought of as unholy creatures sent by hell or the devil. When exposed to a crucifix, vampires begin to feel slow and torturous pain, and it has been revealed that when exposed to a crucifix for 5 minutes or more, vampires will begin to lose their powers, and depending on how old they are, will begin to age and die.

## **Extra Information**

* Vampires are unable to sleep and spend all day and night up awake.
* Vampires limbs can be ripped off. Their legs, hands, arms, everything can be ripped off. However, they can reattach their torn limb by licking the limb and sticking it back on them. It takes around 24 hours for the limb to fully reattach to their body. This doesn’t work with their head, however.
