My Bloody Revenge novel Chapter 17

Vampires requires blood in order to stay alive but can also eat regular food as well. Contrary to

human beliefs food is also a source of nourishment but not nearly enough and seen more as

junk food. Without eating human food, a vampire would need to drink at least ones or twice a

day to sustain a healthy body. With food it’s enough to drink every two to three days. Newly

turned need to drink regularly in the beginning and can’t eat human food at all. Staying off

blood causes one to look sickly pale, cold and the body slowly shuts down until finally going into

a hibernating state. Humans was once the main source of food but over time some started to

search for alternative ways of getting blood. From there 'vegetarians' were born, meaning they

only drink the blood from an animal. Naturally that was frowned upon by some and seen as

unnatural, disgusting and shameful. Vampires are a proud race reeking of beauty, old money

and power. From that covens were started. Jaze continues to explain that when the blood bag

came, many rich covens started their own donor facilities. Some humans actually volunteered

to donate after accidentally stumbling upon the truth. Those get the title Pet and are often

looked after by the coven owning the facility. There are humans out there owned by specific

vampires as well and they only answers to their master until the day they die or in rare case

gets turned. Only purebloods can create others as they see fit since they are seen as Originals

and after them comes the nobility who can choose to create two without asking for permission

from an Original. All vampires need to be registered so a maker needs to be present during a

turning who later reports it higher up. Lower ranks never turn another person or has any real

voice in a clan and is often seen as slaves but treated well. Mostly. Childbirths are rare but

occurs. During his 500 years he has come across two naturally born vampires at two different

occasions. One was born from two Originals mating, accidental pregnancy but loved none the

less, and the other came from a human mating while being turned.

Sun doesn't turn one into a pile of ashes like humans often writes in books. It can make the skin

sore or even get slightly red and temporarily agitated if exposed for a long period of time.

Water does nothing whether it be ordinary drinking water or blessed. Garlic is often avoided

due to its strong smell but often seen as some sort of repellent vampire’s fear greatly. In that

way humans really are dumb. A turned person goes through some physical changes such as

more prominent facial and body structure with perfect skin. Eye and hair colors intensifies but

doesn't flash red when hungry or angry. Vampires are a lot like sirens, both pray on others and

uses their looks to get what they want. Simple way to explain why all vampires have good looks.

Enhanced strength, speed and agility is very much true. Also, better eyesight, hearing and sense

of smell too. With age comes more power but a vampire can never exceed the strength of their

maker.

Going full out vampire means changing form into what humans refers to as demons, that's why

books and movies often describes vampires as descendant of Satan himself, which is very

wrong. Lucifer is a fallen angel and is far from evil. Fallen or not he's still an angel who has his

own kingdom after not agreeing with some of the rules decided in heaven and therefore got

banned. In vampire form one can have wings, horns and tail or just one of them. There are

some who gets scale like skin or even hooves. Sharper, longer, teeth. This is also the only time

the eyes changes colors, not necessarily, but often. The very lucky ones get to keep most of
