### Distinction

A much stronger variant of a Vampire, using more traits from the Lycanthropy spell in it.

## Creation

Unlike regular Vampires, Upgraded Vampires are only a few weeks old. Salyia, a witch and the creator of the upgraded immortality spell, made Louis the very first Upgraded Vampire. While at first her intentions seemed pure, she really wanted to kill Eve and need a subject to do it. The physical process of creating the spell involved Louis's blood and, presumably the knowledge of the original immortality spell and the lycanthrope spell. The blood would then turn black and the subject, in this case Louis, would have to both drink the blood and get stabbed in the heart with wood dipped in the blood itself to truly become an Upgraded Vampire. Asides from Louis, there has only ever been one other strain of this spell used on Louis's niece, Tracey. Louis's strain is unique because he was already a Vampire before becoming an Upgraded Vampire. This could explain why he is stronger than the Vampires he sires.

## Powers

### Louis's Strain

* **Better Charm:** Louis has the ability to charm a human, Werewolf, and even other immortal beings into doing whatever he desires. However, he is unable to charm Witches.
* **Superior Senses:** Louis has better senses that a normal Vampire. He can sense someone's very presence before they are even in the same room as him. He can even tell if they are a Vampire or Werewolf. His senses are very similar to those of a Werewolf-Vampire Hybrid.
* **Superior Strength:** Louis is stronger than all Vampires and most Werewolves. He is even stronger than new born Hybrids such as Dolphine or Edwin. He is, however, as strong or maybe slightly stronger than Thomas, the oldest Hybrid alive.

## Weaknesses

### Louis's Strain

* **The Vampire Blade:** This is the only weapon that can kill Louis.
* **Broken Bones:** If Louis's neck is broken, he will be unconscious for a short while before waking up.
* **Mummify:** If Louis refuses to feed on blood, he'll grow weaker and soon mummify. In this state, he won't be able to move until he ingests blood.

### Vampires he makes

* **Sunlight:** While not directly harmed by the sun, Upgraded Vampires are weakened by the sun, but they only become slightly weaker while remaining stronger that most Werewolves.
* **Wood;** If they are staked through the heart with wood, they will instantly die. Wood will also harm them if they aren't stabbed in the heart.
* **The Vampire Blade:** This blade will kill them the same way wood can, with the only difference being this weapon can't be destroyed as easily.
* **Invitation:** An Upgraded Vampire can not enter a home without being invited in, unlike Louis. If they do, they will start to burn and if they cross the threshold, they will set on fire and will only go out if they exit the property.
* **Broken Bones:** If their neck is broken, they will be rendered unconscious for a short while before waking up.
* **Heart Removal:** An Upgraded Vampire can not live if its heart is removed.
* **Decapitation:** If an Upgraded Vampire is decapitated, it will die. This can only be done by other supernatural creatures.
* **Mummify:** If an Upgraded Vampire refuses to feed, they will grow weaker and begin to mummify. When they are mummified, they can't move and will only wake if they ingest blood.
* **Animal Blood:** Upgraded Vampires do not gain the same strength from consuming animal blood. The same amount of animal blood compared to human blood is not enough to give a Vampire their strength.
* **Werewolf Blood:** If an Upgraded Vampire feeds on a Werewolf, they will puke it up and be weakened by it. However, it is not to the same extent as a regular Vampire.
