Vampire Rules

With the huge popularity of vampires lately, I've been thinking...

[Poll #1487782]

*meaning, if the vampires in a particular bit of fiction don't conform, it nags at you, feels like cheating, maybe turns you off that world, etc.

I acknowledge a range of fictional vampires, from the classic Dracula type to Jiang Shi to psychic vampires and the like.

Being parasitical is pretty central to my vampire-struct, regardless of type... not necessarily blood, but some kind of symbolic life force.

So is an aversion to sunlight.

So is needing to be invited in.

So is physical power, although that can take a lot of forms.

So is immortality.

Yes, immortality too!

Another vote for immortality.

Wow, that's quite a userpic.

I'll agree with aversion to sunlight (not necessarily immediately fatal, but definitely harmful) and immortality.
