@Witch Cat A. unfortunate side effect B. the disease shuts down sperm production to save energy for curcial functions to keep the host alive. C. Removes breeding because he disease can spread more easily by hunting and vampire children won't live long due to the many requirements for a vampire to survive.

Yah but then, why does he force himself to drink it? In your first post, we see him forcefully down a cup of coffee blood. I'm fine with having the disease idea, but we should really look it over again for any contradictions like tomorrow morning or something.

@Witch Cat

bc he needs the blood to survive? i think what hes trying to convey is that vampires need blood like the rest of us, but cant produce their own.

Well, he did say if vampires fed on blood, it'd just be like drinking water. So like, is he planning to make vampires get a blood transfusion to get the blood they need? It'd be funny seeing Atlas trying to fight while hooked up to a machine.

@AdobeFlashexactly vampires still breath and eat, and to move around everything they need blood. The disease gives them enhanced everything else so at the very least we could do something with they are putting so much into those powers that blood producation is massively damages. The disease is trying to weaken a demon and instead is infecting a person bringing their powers up, but with all of that in frail human they get side effects.

@Witch Catthats what the fangs are for. little tubes right into the blood stream.

@Witch Cat

itd be like in ghostbusters with the proton packs but instead its a blood transfusion machine. But i would think if we were following the complete vampire cell transformation, the cells would reorganize your internal organs so blood could be consumed and enter the circulatory system

@jasonwolf

so basically, what happened is in some backwater corner of the infernal plane or whatever some fuckwit was like: imma kill my friends, so he made a disease but like dropped it in the human world and boom vampires (its 2am and im on cold medication sorry)

Did Vampirism ever have a beginning? Any hints as to what started it? My Lilith idea? A powerful, ancient necromancer? Was it just always there?

@AdobeFlash

Maybe it shouldn't be the blood you need, but just what's in the blood? Plasma is just 90% water anyway, but cells, iron, ect. are still in it. So instead of having to make up a whole new organ system, we could just say ingesting the blood could also work because it's not the blood itself the vampire needs, but what's in it. If we want to say the body goes into survival mode, pooling energy and blood into vital organs, then it would seem silly to say that vampires couldn't make their own plasma at least. So, do vampires have an iron deficiency?

I hate to bring in preexisting properties, but this sorta reminds me of JJBA, with the talk of a family of immortals. In the show, a really long time ago, a bunch of superpowerful beings roamed the Earth, think vampires+. They needed to feed, but they were careful not to overbreed due to immortality and food availability. Then this fucko Kars gets born, thinks: Man, look at this mask im so cool and more powerful n shit. But, he needed much more food. Like a lot more. The rest of this society tries to kill him because he and his rebel friends will eventually wipe out all life on Earth. But due to his ability, he killed all his people.

Long story short, a family of vampires could lead to problems with feeding and population.

@AdobeFlash

That idea?

Time to use our favourite tool to ignore problems, Magic! Here's my idea, all blood is infused with magic, Vampires need magic to survive, Vampires evolved to consume blood for magic, and that's why vampires drink blood.

@Witch Cat

no, it was saying how familial vampires could lead to overfeeding or population problems

Huh, I had no idea you made a back story for vampires. But like, Lilith is real vampire mythos! And you guys did want a more traditional vampire.
