Blood, Memories and Changing

-When bitten, a victim enters a state of euphoria, no pain is felt.
-a vampire has 3 choices when biting:
  †-Bite to feed
  †-Bite to kill
  †-Bite to change
-Only a very strong and experienced vampire has the capacity to bite to change.
-if a vampire licks the wound of it’s victim, it will heal (does not work for lethal wounds)
-During the embrace, a victim will not synch with the sire, unless the sire bites to change.
-A biting vampire will always synch with its victim (feel their emotions; perhaps see powerful or vibrant memories). The victim will only feel the synch if it receives the vampire’s blood (bite to change).
-When a victim is bitten to change, they will berserk for a few moments, then fall unconscious for a few hours (or days depending on the strength of the person) then awaken as a new vampire. If left un-trained, the new vampire will wander in search of blood. In this case, a vampire is called a Ghoul or a Dreg
-a full vampire is not able to apply body piercings due to their healing factor. if they attempt to pierce their flesh, the jewelry will fall out after only a few seconds.
-if a person is changed to a vampire while wearing silver jewelry, it will apply permanent burns if not removed immediatley.

Key Differences between BloodSlaves and Vampires

-BloodSlaves senses, strengths and abilities are all heightened, but it is a mere fraction compared to a full vampire. Essentially, a BloodSlave is a human with a trace amount of vampire blood in them.
-BloodSlaves can survive on human blood as sustenance
-Prolonged exposure to human blood will degrade the body of a BloodSlave, and prolonged use of vampire blood will cause a BloodSlave to loose self control. This is highly prohibited by all known covens and is punishable by death.
-BloodSlaves posses the ability to walk during the day. This is why they are key in helping vampires stalk and feed.
-a Vampires hair does not grow back when cut, when it's gone, it's gone. it cannot be dyed either. if hair is dyed it will gradually change back over the course of 12-24 hours.
-Fingernails will however grow back. when a vampire is going about his business, the claws are retracted and appear like a femenine manicure. when a vampire is angry, fighting, or sometimes when feeding, the claws will extend about a centimeter (1/4 inch), become pointed and very sharp.
-All Tower Vampires are cursed with a stigma when changed. Tower Vampires cannot experience erections or sexual climax. Hence, they crave the taste of human blood at the peak of such an experience.

Conditions of a Tower BloodSlave

-Sires are free to discipline their BloodSlaves as they see fit
-Should a BloodSlave go missing for more than 2 months they are considered dead and a sire may seek a new BloodSlave
-All BloodSlaves must go through a 3 month training period before they are officially inducted into the coven
-If a BloodSlave kills another BloodSlave, they are punishable by death (unless ordered to by their sire)
-If a BloodSlave kills another vampire, the punishment is death. If that BloodSlave was ordered to by his sire, the sire is also punished to death.
-If a vampire kills its BloodSlave, he or she is tried. It is decided by vote if that vampire is allowed to take another as a BloodSlave, and how long they must wait before doing so.

Conditions of a Tower Vampire

-Tower Vampires suffer a stigma in which they are granted immortality, but are cursed with never being able to experience an erection or ever being able to climax. This stigma causes the vampire to crave the taste of human blood at the height of climax.
-Tower Vampires may only have one BloodSlave at a time.
-if a vampire goes missing for more than 5 years they are considered exiled and marked as 'deceased'
-all Tower vampires must be approved by Kyuketsuki-Sama.

-Tower vampires prefer males, but not entirely. They more-so prefer beautful humans for feeding and changing.

-Due to the fact that vampires are impotent, they also seek BloodSlaves that are particularly sexual.
