Hi, everyone. I'm not a vampire, and I'm sure you probably answered all these questions before, but it's tough reading through over 400 pages.
So, vampires. How are modern vampires in any way related to legendary vampires? In fact, how can they even share the same name? "I like blood" is vastly different than "I'm a reanimated corpse with no brain that needs to drink blood in order to stay animated".
I've heard some people claim that they get really sick if they are unable to consume blood. How is this possible? Wouldn't they be very sick children?
Speaking of blood, why is blood special? It's a transport system for the body. Wouldn't there be lymphatic fluid and urine vampires? How are they any different from blood, besides what they transport?
I have more, but there's a lot already here.
we have the need to consume energy that we are not able to produce ourselves in order to live normal healthy lives. some don't consume blood, they are refered to as psi vampires, they consume life energy. blood also contains the life energy. some of us were sick as children, however it usually starts occuring once we near or enter puberty.
Okay, so why don't you produce your own energy? Also, if you can't produce your own energy, why don't all those who are vampires die soon after childbirth? Or, if you become vampires near puberty, what happens to the energy production? Does it turn off?
Also, it seems like there are many, many more people who identify as vampires than 10 years ago. Is this because people call themselves vampires when they aren't? Or, is it that the internet brings people together? Not producing personal energy seems like it's an evolutionary disadvantage, so why haven't vampires died out?
we don't know why we are not able to produce the energy that is required to live normal healthy lives. we are just aware that the normal means, i.e. food intake, does not supply us with the amount we need.
i've addressed the reason why we do not die at a young age. it doesn't turn off, we just have to take it in a different way. same way you eat 3 meals a day to keep yourself going and healthy, we eat as well, however we have to take the processed energy from someone / something else and "digest" it so we can use it. so it's like this, a non vampire eats dinner, they digest their food which is turned into energy for them to use, we then feed off of their energy and change it to where we can use it. for some reason food digestion does not give us the energy we need.
before 12 years ago, there was a rule of secrecy for those that follow the black vail. this is part of the reason why there seems to be more people. the other reason is of course the internet. and lastly because people say they are things that they are not to be cool.
it does seem to be an evolutionary disadvantage when you just look at it without thinking, but really it's the same as everyone else. you eat don't you? you have to take from something else to survive right? so do we, it's just a different way.
