Cramps And Swollen Breasts

#6 - bevi da me, e vivrai per sempre

right with this title the topic that I dedicate to my favorite supernatural creatures: vampires. The phrase is taken from "Interview with the Vampire "by Anne Rice, in my opinion, the greatest of all those who have written about these beings.
My vision of a vampire takes elements from many legends being able to see through the darkness less dense, to fly - with or without wings - to appeal to a superhuman speed and strength. But not only. I picked up mainly by Rice to the legend of the "dark gift", a special power that varies as a vampire and a vampire that is acquired only after processing. The vampire can not be exposed to direct sunlight, only to indirect and artificial light, however, with age his powers allow him to resist the light. As Lestat said, over time become more powerful.
not fear the stakes, holy water, crucifixes - there are those, like Louis, loves to watch them - can sleep in coffins or regular beds. They drink a liter of blood per day, and they must be careful not to drink from a dead, their blood is almost fatal. Indiscriminately can drink from animals or humans, but animals drink is considered boorish.
Now we come to my vampires. I use them often in RPGs, as I like to work on their psychology. I took my vampires from Rice's beautiful - and useful - to have the characteristic pink skin as that of a human being. Their meat is cold, but after a meal and invigorate their body temperature rises slightly, but do not reach that of a normal human being. In dreams are forced to relive their past - I admit, I do not remember from what source I have drawn for this feature, but I always liked - after processing. The transformation occurs by the classical method: a vampire bites a human, but leaves it in life with a little blood, made him drink his own, then the human turns into a period of time ranging from minutes to 72 hours, during which is filled with unbearable pain - because the soul is torn from the dying body -. The heart of does not beat a vampire, lost soul, "we might say, but soul understood as the heart, emotions and feelings. Precisely for this reason in the mirror does not reflect its image, but its true face of a monster - this is something of my own creation, the vampire legends are not reflected -. Still feel emotions, but are driven by new cruelty that leads them to ignore the moral attitudes falling into cruel and often sadistic. Lovers of pleasure and carnal passion, their sin is lust.
can resist the thirst, but not for long periods, can also survive by eating only animal blood. This which may seriously harm them, in addition to the blood of the dead, is the fire, their only real weakness. Being dead meat are extremely vulnerable to this, even the most sacred element.
Vampires are as men and women are not too unusual, at least in my view. They are beautiful, but not perfect. Their are two particular points: eyes and teeth. The first are large, clear, intense colors. Pupils withdrawn to make way for large irises. Usually, when they are hungry, the base color of the eyes is even more intense or changed radically. The teeth are sharp, even if you do not notice at first sight. They are clean and sorted, slightly pointed, except that the canines, as everyone knows, are real razor-sharp fangs xD
My vampires do not sparkle in the sun, they can eat human food - even if you have a bad taste for them - , they are not "gnokki" [Cit.] Love do not prove, prove the most profound affection. Also because they used to share a bed with a partner (prey cough cough cough cough) per night. They cry, but rarely.
Vampires are accompanied, but only if older or experience, by Amicus. What is an Amicus? It is essentially a normal human being, but has the distinction of being the servant of a vampire. The Amicus usually deal with their day to watch vampire, serving in every way, as true stewards. They can be of either sex. The vampire in which they are linked is called the Master, but not all vampires are able to take care of Amicus, is in fact a very difficult and time consuming task, which often culminates in tragedy.
The Amicus and the Master are tied together by four "brands" that are posted by Master sull'Amicus. The first mark is to share the vital energy of the vampire with the human, is as painless and easy to create. Just a simple physical contact through which Master and Amicus will be together until the end of the life of one of the two. During the time of the first mark the souls of the two touch each other, and the Amicus may be felt for a moment the soul of the Master as his own. The second brand works in reverse. Also through physical contact engages a spiritual time for which the Master feels the soul dell'Amicus. The third is to drink the blood dell'Amicus Master - is usually the one that ends in tragedy because the Master can not refrain from killing the human - and the fourth in all'Amicus to drink the blood of Master. Every brand is voluntary, takes place automatically only if you want the Master. The Amicus receives benefits from any brand: the first binds to the Master, making it immune to the charm of the others, the second provides a contact for which the two are able to sense the presence of the other even at great distances, so as to be although distant, the third creates a spiritual contact that the two will be able to communicate telepathically, Amicus also acquires immortality, the fourth gives all'Amicus the final choice: become a vampire or stay human forever. This choice is totally in the hands all'Amicus, which has 24 hours to choose his destiny. According to his will to implement the trasformarzione or not.
The bond that forms between Amicus and the Master is so strong that if one died, the other at 90% probability, would suffer the same fate. A vampire can have only the Amicus time, an Amicus, however, can have more than one Master simultaneously.
The powers of the Amicus are: strength, speed and agility but less than superhuman vampires, telepathy and the power to choose and won the fourth mark.

And the chronicles of the vampires is all for now! xD
If I will have other things to write, will note the.
