The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Now we have all seen the movies Underworld and such where the bloodlines have mixed. Vampyres and Lycans. The question is can such a thing truly be? Would a host be able to sustain such a conflict within themselves? Who would accept such a creature?

Depends on the mirco-biology within the host. Science can't study something that is improbable to exist. Give me a blood sample of each, the host, the vampire, and the werewolf and a few hours.

Wait, Severus... did you just task someone into making a spiritual werewolf? Vampire = Spritiual, Werewolf = Physical Transformation or Mutation?

This is not impossible.

I would have to agree with severus. I have a difficult time believing that hybrids are in existance. If they are well than I have yet to meet one. But. I do not comprehend how two distinct species would co mingle. Breed between a human host is one thing but between the races is another.
I also find it difficult to see such a being to be accept into either community. It is a difficult enough aspect for them to accept eachother as purebloods,how would accept one with both bloodlines?

After studyingb the topic the question would be in my mind is this Could a Vampire impregnate someone who's a werewolf?

It's possible I've met them
Vamp=mindset and needs for body
Lycan=body transformation
So the host is has the physical body of the lycan with the needs of vampyric needs and abilities
No need to be to skeptical or complicated in my opinion just go with it

I am a natural skeptic. I always ask questions. If it's possible than I've certainly no problem with it. But there's always been a healthy discussion over the issue

To me, it's not that absurd.

If the two concepts at question here were to mix, all you would end up with is a creature with the need to feed (be it via sang or psi means) that had the added ability of shape shifting.

That's it.

What I don't understand is how someone can actually not believe that they can happen.. this world is full of the unknown and a Hybrid is just one of many things that this world has put into the category of being part of the supernatural realm.. To be honest, I do not see them as being any different then ourselves, it's like telling someone that has seen an interracial couple with a child that their child is not possible, it is the same as saying that a hybrid cannot exist.. They may not be accepted in the vampire community or the lycan community but they can be accepted by each other.. Just to see them as non-existent is like trying to say a bird cannot fly.. Just because you haven't seen one or talked to one does not mean that they cannot be possible..

True... but interracial couples are still human threw and threw. Lycans and Vampires are only the same on the surface.

In nature you will see tigers and lions mate successfully from time to time, even black bears and polar bears but you won't see a lion and an elephant hybrid no more than you will you see flying pigs. The genetics of the two species have to be compatible in the first place
Yes, nature does have a wide range of animal and plant life but that is because of adaptation not cross species breading.

What I think is interesting in this post is that everyone seems to think that a Vampire and a Werewolf are separate species. When to me they are hybrids themselves.

Certainly we've seen -whether in books, movies, or in life- that either of these can start as a human then through whatever process become what they are. Hence they are hybrids...part human/part whatever.

So I think its more than possible to cross species because they have a similar foundation--human. They are not that far off from one another.

I know its just a fictional reference, but the Priest graphic novels offers the idea that a vampire originally was a totally separate species, not human related at all and initially only used humans and other living things for hunting. And it was the Queen who fed a captured human her blood and that was the first human vampire hybrid, the start of the vampire amid humans species.

I guess you'd end up with a litter of mixed metaphors ...

As a scientific thinker, I must view this from a biological stand point.

In my own opinion (take heavy note of that- MINE) vampires and lycans are human at base, however they have additional qualities about them.

So when one takes a male and female and crosses them, it is possible to create a hybrid in the sense that you would have a shapeshifter with the need to feed, but that would require codominace of the genes. Lets just say for this example that the vampire or lycan gene was dominant and the other was recessive, well then the dominant gene is the only one expressed.

(oops need to add a little bit more to my previous post)

So after that, obviously if you have codominance, then on a qualitative level, they are a hybrid, but without that effect, to the naked eye, you dont have a hybrid, only on a genetic level would a creature be considered a hybrid.

Since it's possible for vampires to reproduce, and also for lycans to reproduce then the possibilities of the two bloodlines combining is also possible. Now whether or not the child born can sustain life with the mixed blood relies entirely on their genetic make up as an individual. Some may become ill and die. Or some may be born with an enhanced immune system that allows them to live and maybe even be healthier than their parents.

Now if you're looking at it as a vampire being infected with lycan blood or vise versa then the most probable outcome would be death or sickness as the body's immune system would fight the "intrusion". But again it depends on their genetic make up.

I never said anything was absurd. However, what would be the combination both of strengths and weakness/ What about the full Moon. Would the lycan have to avoid some sunlight?

I would think if you missed two breeds or species there would be some aspects of both apparent.

As with the weaknesses.

it would seem fun to think and see the possibles of the both i for one would love to see a hybrid of the two it seem very possible so i would think that it would happen when we mix the two

While I do feel it might be cool that this could happen,I dont believe in Hybrids of this nature.Too many things going against it.

And as I stated earlier too many physical and genetic variables come into play. it makes for great film and tv materials but in reality, there seems slim to none in chance

I believe that Vampires and Lycans could not mix the bloodlines, no matter how hard they would try. A Dog cant reproduce with Cat. Two different species. Vampires and Lycans are of the Supernatural world, but different types of supernatural species.
