Welcome to Gaia! ::

For all you skeptics, teetering on the edge of belief and for all you who think we are all insane, let me briefly explain what a vampire is: A vampire, under our modern definition, is a human being who for some unknown reason, needs the life energies of another human to live unhindered by a bothersome and somewhat crippling need. There are many kinds of us; there are those who need a form of psychic or emotional energies, and those who need to feed from blood. Also, there are those who are able to do both.

Now, I'll answer some of the more frequent questions I receive when I inform folks of my vampirism. We do not have super powers; no super speed, flying, ridiculous strength, or immortality. Some of us, however, are psychically gifted, and quite a many of us have better senses than the average Homo Sapiens. We aren't all stunningly seductive and beautiful, though I don't doubt that some of us are. We do not burst into flame or sparkle in the sunlight. Many find it quite bothersome, and many enjoy the horribly warm and bright rays (you can probably guess my stance on it) it emits.We do not all sleep in coffins, though some of us claim to for a laugh and there are some who really do; the somewhat (in)famous Don Henrie, for example. We DO NOT MURDER PEOPLE; we ask them nicely, and only ask for what we need, which is usually a small donation.

To sum it all up, the vampries of today are not the monsters or heroes of folklore and fiction. We are for the most part just like the average human, but with a few tweaks. And, of course, the whole needing of energies thing, but thats not really a big deal, is it?
