Tell me what defines you as a vampire and do you have a soul and are you evil?
this simply beggs the question define real vampire....
whats unreal to one...is very real to another
ok well no role playing people please I want undead only ….
Despite the obvious flaws in the original question it is a useful one to answer.
For myself. Yes, I have a soul, if you can define a soul as the animating body that survives after death that is the vehicle of my mental focus/will.
Am I evil. Well that depends on who you ask. Some will tell you yes, that i am a miserable, self centered sob that has no business being alive, and to others, im a good and loyal friend, who is known to do anything for those i consider family or friends. So it is a perspective on what the situation requires. I am no more one then the other, as I do not care if I reincarnate as a Dung beetle. I am in human form, and a human i will be.
I have no soul. My heart is black as nite. I love the tast of blood. I sleep in a coffin and i can not go out side in the sun lite. So i am the undied. So i am a vampire.
I still respect life,and humanity,yes sunlight proves a problem,the thiorst i try to control,i can see my reflection in a mirror.night time is my dominion,when i feel most alive.But we are the childeren of the night.But evil is something i fight not to be.I personally try to retain the qualitys that i had when i was human.
so ok im sounding general with my questions and obvious flaws infernalmage….
I don’t care lol
Yes we can sound like a dinner hall at university and debate the concepts of what is evil or dead or perceptions ….. blah blah.
As a user of chaos magic I know to except my evil with my good like a ying yang to make the whole.
Would being a vampire not be the same ?
I think the only bad thing would be the murder part…. As a perception a mass murderer is a very good solder in my book
yes i am a vampire
a soul whats that
evil i made the word
Lavisbre, in many a debate can be a clad response to an answer. You ask two questions to start with that ask for a debate. Then now you ask something I really do not know what you mean. I do not understand what you mean by –the murder- part of being a Vampire. Could you clarify that please.
How do you distinguish or tell the difference between the different vampire races?
I say some can be good and some can be evil.
This also depends on the type of vampire you are not all vampires need blood and it is not necessary to kill the victim when there are so many humans willing to be donors. Being a real vampire does not mean there is no soul or that one is undead and evil it just means they are a different type of person that is out there.
It is possible that some may possess a soul or by doing good deads could possibly earn one. It is possible they could steal human souls as well.
Lavisbre
In regards to your comment about serial killers and mass murderers....I have had the misfortune of meeting many in my life. Some of which have tried to infact kill me. They are not pleasent people, but the serve their purpose. However I would much rather that they go and visit you if you think it would be a better waist of their time, as well as seeing how useful they are.
Murder does nothing. It does not teach lessons, does not raise the spirit beyond its flesh, it is ignorant, and waist ful. There are some times when death is warrented by corrupt actions, generally good death does not happen by the hands of men, even if they hold to it by god.
Well they way I see it. I was born and razed wiccan. I become a vampire when i was in middle school. I do not go by the wiccan law and I dont believe in good and evil. I believe everyone goes by there way of doing stuff. I mean you mite think it is wrong when in the other person eyes it is right. It is just nature of everyone and everything.
Once again I can only say I believe all humans to be vampiric in nature, as for souls, yep I think we all have one of those as well....good or evil....we are all works in progress.
foolish this is...how can you expect to receive a answer of substance when you say "undead only" !!! There are many forms of Vampires!!! 333
i agree with that guy above me, there are numerous definitions that fit vampire or vampirism...personally my view conflict with the author of this thread.
but here is the thing that most forget. u cannot be good with out a small part that is evil and u can not be evil with out a small part in u that is good. so u see what is evil and what is good. as far as being undead. what is death. that is a matter of what the person thinks what his or her beliefs are. for i know that i have had a past life. but as far as that i am quite alive......
but what the person up above some where said what is real to one person may not be real to another. so in the end it is all a matter of the mind and what that person can grasp with his or her minds.
A vampire is the highest of beings... taken by the dark powers... corrupted and proud... contemptuous of mortals who are but a shadow of their beauty...
I walked into 7-11 last night and 2 people simultaneously made vampire comments.
I supose that makes me a vampire, as this happens quite regularily. *laughs*
However I have the authority to define myself as well (unlike many people) so I am not... you decide *laughs, is your chaos magic stronger than my faith?*
Soul, by my definition, is that energy force that is capable of existing beyon the material; yes I have one.
Am I evil, yes. I regularily break commandments I believe in, however i also recognize that these are faults of my character and make half assed attempts at improving myself occasionaly. I have some regrets but no guilt, I am only mildly evil by my own accounting.
I asked no role players as I want those who believe themselves to be vampire to answer.
Yes like I mentioned it’s like being at university with everyone trying to get a “I sound smarter debate point”
If you conceder yourselfer a vampire then answer please, I just don’t want role playing bloodlines and what not, I want from the person.
Im in good communication with one such being and im fascinated by her. Im wondering if there are more.
Answer to isilea ??? I asked three questions not two … there all linked and Simonious I believe …
AS for murder, you cant take blood with out killing … that would troublesome for most. Is it for a vampire?
Answer to infernalimage.
Now im not following your comments on sending murders to me?
Answer to morlock? Is that role play clan junk? Are you telling me there are 333 forms of vampire?
Explain im interested.
Answer to antithesis. Lol I know…. just trying to get the right people to talk with out being rude as this a forum for all.
Like I mentioned im in talks with a very convincing individuals, they confirmed there blood drinkers and that means the death of the person they drink from so murder is topic.
I don’t think murder is good or evil just perception.
They also mentioned a couple of things and im pepper potting the community to see if this is unique or common thoughts from those who believe or are vampires.
People like Uzziel ,obsidian fury, carvall, dark wiccan and bethory baby all have very good points and view and I understand the nit picking from some other people …. I just want them to get over the definition state and answer some debates
ok you want your answer yes I'm a vampire. I do drink blood sometimes i feed off energy more though than anything. I sometimes wonder if i have a soul. evil I can be if I want. yes the sunlight bothers me but it doesn't kill me i am what I am and thats it
Yes I'm a Vampire too . I'm a Psy Vamp . And yes I do like the taste of blood and biting . Though I don't feed this way . I feed thur energy .
I will try to give a serious answer but this really is complicated to do in a forum posting and obviously everyone here has their different perspective which is correct for them and should not be subject to criticism or ridicule.
I am Vampyre and I do consider myself undead. But for me to give a simple answer like that does not illustrate the myth and legend from reality.
Most people draw their conclusions about vampires from popular culture, stories, movies, books, etc. With rare exceptions these ideas are far from what I view as reality.
I drink blood of others but never prey on others. I drink only consentually. Blood is a powerful life force and I derive sustanance from it, of course this would be true even unconsentually. However, the act of drinking consentually also creates a deep bonding of souls, me with them and them with me forever, that is at least as important to me as the sustanance.
I say I am undead but does this mean the shell that I currently occupy cannot be harmed? Of course not, my body shell only allows me to take human form, it can be destroyed in an instant by any normal means, no elaborate ritual is required to kill this shell. A vampire is a spirit being and is not subject to death just because the shell he/she has chosen to occupy at the moment ceases to exist.
When this shell is gone I will choose another. It is not like an act of reincarnation, it is rather more like finding one that meshes well with your spirit and then bonding with that particular life form for the duration of its existance.
As to the question of good and evil, I don't believe that vampires are inherently either. Just like humans some can be very good and some can be very evil. One is not made good or evil just because they are Vampyre!
Lavisbre, I think you've been watching too much Buffy...
Anyone who tells you they are undead is either pulling your leg or is severely deluded.
CarnalxViolence I don't believe anything was said about being "undead" The person was asking what u believe makes u a vampire...not Bela Lugosi.
For me ,the light sensitivity, the ache and tired feeling when I don't feed.I am a hy hybrid from lack of sang. donors.And so since I moved to the U.S. I have not fed from blood only energy.
I also feel more energized at night, food tastes have changed since my awakening, sleep patterns, etc.My empathic ability and psychic ability have increased a lot.
there has been mention of undead. Lavisbre himself said:
"ok well no role playing people please I want undead only …."
And thats what my post was referring to. It sounds like he wants the romanticised version of vampires - the hollywood creation - as opposed to the type of human being that consumes human blood.
I have a soul.I am not evil.Or,at least do not believe so.I like the day and I am not of the undead.Am I a Vampire? Of the worse kind.
"AS for murder, you cant take blood with out killing … that would troublesome for most. Is it for a vampire?"
what trite garbage...of course you can, you find a willing donor, I have drank blood, but don't feel the distinct need...and I have never killed anyone.On the point of undead only though...if I cut you, you would bleed, if I take you into the sun, you would NOT burst into flame, and if I poured holy water on you, likely it would simply wash off some skin oils....I have met many people who could do strange and interesting things, but NONE would have rated as undead...and by saying that you don't care if you thread questions are poorly stated, you are torpedoing your whole debate right at the start.
A threads question sets the tone for the whole debate, hence a poorly worded question will attract garbage unwanted
wow this is tough….. lol
simple question anyone who is vampire tell me about yourself and those points.
Anyone who is just playing or repeating comic books and blood lines keep it for someone else.
carnalx violence yes iv watched every episode of buffy it was great .i liked angle too. Did I believe in the undead before yes … I was 6 years old when I truly wanted to find them.
I had a plaster mode kit of Dracula and melted candles into the mode and made a vampire candle to burn into the night to attract them. Lol
We lived next to a graveyard in the moors in England next to a stone circle lol
Now we all know tv and books are not literal facts and loosely based on beliefs and artistic licenses.
I love vampire masquerade n blood lines games … very claver plots n cults, and that’s all.
I love anne rice n think giving Lastat a soul brilliant as who wants to be a monster, this has opened many doors, and helped some develop what is ticking inside.
i personally take energy and do not consider myself a vampire more incubus, chaos magic user, others call me a vampire by there standards.
My blood use is purely for magic, my sex magic purely for energy and I use the energy to practice deeper levels of chaos magic.
Onlookers see a romantic guy who practices dark magic and will have you performing acts of depravity covered in blood and living your darkest fantasies.
Nocturnisorchid was right stop being so literal everyone, I want to hear from the vampires in our community with out poo pooing them on technicalities and cleaver debating tactics grown out of when you leave collage.
Can we for once not have someone trying to out smart or be elitist.
I believe people have ways or feelings that are vampiric and evolving them is crucial.
I know of someone who heals really fast in a day from minor wounds and nails grow really fast… too much calcium and over active immune system?
Or is he part of a DNA trait out there
I like a lot of people drain energy …. Can I prove it scientifically …. I guess if we can measure energy that I feed on.
Lucaianra like many has answered honestly and I totally understand what hes getting at.
Anyone who has astral ascended would agree were separated from body and spirit, our spirits are undead some feel.
He is living as he must totally understanding what he is inside and has communicated that with us…..
Answer to daermon yes I have attracted trash answers
Yes, alot of the disagreement on what defines a vampire comes from the association of undead.
I think to most of us it would imply at least a NDE; if not having fully died and come back into an animated corpse or simalacrum.
Is Undying a better term, if so, then anyone who believes in reincarnation and can remember their past lives might be concidered undying.
I should think that any arguement for immoetal soul can be immediately disregarded as it is nessesary to apply the term death to the physical world and not to the imaterial (unless of course you believe hell/heaven and the return to earth is litteral.)
well said Kglitterous, im noticing a mind field when talking about vampires in the forums, and everyone all to ready to dismiss such claims on VR the top vampire data base?
Something wrong with that picture
as far as i know i have a soul and feallings as a human does but they are eather very intence or i am detached from them light does bother from me and yes i do drink from blood and feed from energy i hope this helps you understand us a little better as far as evile i tend to tink of that as a point of vew
I am evil, I destroy life because I don't agree with the concept. Hack reality and tear it down. The motive is good, start anew, the only method for suck is evil though, and there is the price, but I do have a soul, and it's mine.
I daresay that any true undead spirit would be on the internet. They would be attached to their source of power, those they energetically attached to in life.
Kglitterous, another point you made is about 'undying' rather than undead. In that case, would it simply be the body, or the soul that we'd refer to? Because yes, reincarnation would imply the soul is undying. But undead implies a re-animated corpse - the traditional view of vampires.
Its all so confusing!
Yes I am a vampire. There is no one characteristic that defines anyone. As such, no one can possibly debate that without a headache.
Yes I have a soul. Everyone at one time or another, (before the vampire bit you) has had a soul. Now whether you choose to believe that it's still there is entirely up to the vampire in general. Personally though the soul is your personailty, your animation. Everyone is different, even vampires.
Am I evil? Yes and no. Yes because I kill my victims every once in a while. That might be bad to some. Again it's a state of mind on what's right or wrong. No I'm not evil to me and my state of mind is the one that matter's right?
Really, it's a losing debate.
I personally am not a real vampire, and i personally do not think their are any real vampire on vr, i mean their are modern vampires on here but i really doubt their are true vampire on vr...
well I know it’s hard to believe sometimes based on life’s personal experiences.
One thing iv learnt along the way is be open minded.
Your perception of the undead is most properly like the everyone’s from the films n books we read.
I also don’t think that vampire is real.
Anyone who clamed to be I except that they are what they tell me they are.
Sure I spell BS from some with the classic stuff from a vampire game. Then like iv mentioned there are some right now that have me convinced.
I have a soul and I try not to be Evil intil I get Pissed off.
I am almost tire of the systematic responses not answering the question, so in my point of view, I will give one to you.
I work graveyard at an undisclosed location in the French Quarter, New Orleans. Does not mean the light of day does not bother me, although it is very irritating to squint the eyes every time I step into the light, whether it is a street light, or the daylight.
My hearing is slightly atuned, ringing is an almost constant with the flow of traffic, loud voices, people talking all at once gets very overwhelming to where I have to either walk away, or into another room.
Touch has its pleasant side, during specific natures, it gets very sensual.
Sight, well...Lets just say my doctor gave me a 25/25 per eye on the exam. Or was it 15/15, I can't remember, the only thing I know is sometimes I can see further than the eye can see. That is a fact. No jokes.
Strength is not a matter. Just human. Bodybuilding is an exercise. Even though I am only about 5'4" 120 pnds, and can bench an astonishing 170 on a good day. Fact.
I dress like an everyday person, suite to work as I do work at a Hotel. On my offdays, I like to wear black, not because it is gothic or whathaveyou, but because I have been wearing it all my life...Before the word goth even existed mind you. As I am 30 years old. You do the math. I am a polythiest, I do have a soul according to the ethereal knowledge I have and have experianced. Evil? Evil is in the eye of the beholder, but I can tell you that I have never betrayed, wronged, nor caused bodily harm to another. I do lead a moral life, as I am a man of honour, living by the bushido.
This is my answer. I am who I am. Trueblood is just another stereotype for the unexplained matters.
i sort of believe in souls, or at least a soul like thing, but evil is not tied to a type of person rather i think its specific and therefore vampires being evil strictly for being vampiric which is what i think this is asking is preposterous....
I'm not really going to add to this substantially, I just wanted to say that 25/25 vision would be the same as 20/20. You probably meant to say 20/15, as that would be better than average.
Some think that they are undead, which I believe is false, may feel that way, not questioning wheter they are vampire or not, probably are...
I'm not undead and who would want to be? What makes me a vampire is the decision that I am a mortal vampire and I need to drink blood at times to deal with the hunger. I do have a soul. As for evil, the only time I'm ever evil is when I see chocolate cake or some good food. It's as simple as that.
As some know Im about as Evil, as a can of diet coke! Its more like 333 then 666.
Um Im an energy feeder. No Im not sanguian but I love being a chew toy.
And I personaly think that souls are redundent. Besides its never truly yours to begin with. But thats just my opinion.
let´s see ... yes i´m a modern vampire, why? because i drink blood, i bite... mainly alive at night... and so...
i have a soul... mmmh ... well, yes, i think ... i´m not different from you... maybe because of the above mentioned... i don´t know...
and evil... well, i think it depends on what you consider evil...
Yes I have a soul, but as to those movie myths of being swayed by garlic or crosses is yet what it is a myth. I have no fear of garlic or of crosses. I do not concider myself to be an evil person. I do not need to drink blood all the time, most the time I feed off the energy one puts out.
As for sunlight, I can be out in the sun but only for short periods of time or I do burn, but not into an inferno mind you. That is highly again over exaggerated by hollywood myths.
Yes to a soul, no to being evil, and if they give you some story about just being energy deficient then its all in their head.
ok finally this thread is going somewhere....
As to undeath....garbage concept, unless viewed as an abstract, in which undying, as Kglitterous stated, is the state you are speaking of.
myself I don't pretty anything up, i'm an energy and emotion leech, many have gotten pissed at my use of the term leech...but too bad, it's what we are.
I don't buy into political correctness as having any use.
here's my opinion... first, I do believe that vampires exist... I haven't read the full forum yet, so I don't know who claims to be a real vampire... but to me, real vampires don't come to the internet post replies on forums... first they can't, why? they are under the will of Satan and hes demons, and if there is a true vampire, here in Vampire Rave, he as to agree with me... they know this is correct, they know that Satan exist, and Hell, Heaven, God and Jesus do, really exist... and of course... ETERNAL LIFE... and they don't have it... a real vampire lose hes free will, when he makes the pact with Satan, to become one... and then he receives seven powerful demons to become one true vampire, with all that powers that we know... and more... but that , worth nothing... :X
Well said Malikai (sorry if I misspelled)
But if you were human with vampiric attributes, then maybe you could get away with that. But sorry dahlings, role players, whoever. The fantasy ends after the bedroom. (Though Ill admit its kinky)
If you wanna know what a real vampire is then read my profile. I am a sang. that pretty much sums it up in my opinion.
Daermon, its good to see an energy one thats open and point blank about what they are, personaly I just call them energy deficient and not vamps.
Thankyou for the correction Voodoochild. For the undead comments, I believe this is purely RP lifer work. If you were undead, scientists would have a field day with you.
As for the aging process, being mortal and immortal makes no differance. As I am who I am, my aging process is extremely slower. As the paperwork in my possession states, I am technically 5 years behind on my aging process, physically speaking, I have looked the same since I was 8 years old, save for the facial hair, and longer face. I have a higher metabolism than most, and digest quicker. my fingernails do grow at an extended length when I do not cut them, a bit faster at the growth process in some areas. When the sun does hit me for a period of time, I burn and blister, I never tan. I could write down the diagnosis from the younger exams, but I do not see the point...Moving on.
TegoSanguisitim... if that was for (of course it was) let me tell you something, I'm portuguese (so forgive for my bad english) moving on... if you wanna come here to my country I'll take you to see what a real vampire is (if they still there) and believe me, they don't come to the internet... lol... I do not need to read books of men's to know about vampires... thats the problem... everybody read to much... and no action, no attitude, no searching for the trued... have you ever seen a real vampire? have any of you? :X
It always amuses me to see powerful, ancient, predatorial supernatural beings.....on the internet, and unable to SPELL.
Remember kids, bullshit makes the flowers grow, and that's beautiful, man.
I am a bit insulted by Malakh's comments, but it does not hinder me at any time, you would be surprised at how many of the "us's" there are online. Your opinion means nothing to me, as I am not here for you.
And the point that you are online means? Claiming to be what? This in turn makes you a hypocrite? I may be wrong. Judge not others by their systems of communication. Indeed, from the ages of whatever to whatever, please do not critisize those of whom have lesser minds than those of adequette achievement. As they being in differant states of mind, are no more right, than you may be wrong. I have said my piece.
humm... I don't understand why you feel insulted, but... forgive me, if I did...
I am not claiming to be nothing... you guys are... for God sake... If there is real vampires here in this site... wow... what a stupid I was all my life... so many time to find them, and here they were... so easy to find... if truly are REAL SUPERNATURAL VAMPIRES here, I want to speak with at least one... just one, and not by chatting... I mean the real deal... in person... if someone please, I'll go any were to meet him or her... and yes, I've found real vampires...
once again forgive me, if I offended you... gomen nasai... :(
I lay no claim to being true undead, I would just like to answer the post from personal perspective, A Vampire is defined by their own perception of themselves, they are by nature creatures of the night, but are also creatures of variety, therefore no two are able to be defined in the same way, much like humans are, I feel that if a vampire had a soul it would be a truely sad creature to behold, knowing your fate and not being able to do anything about it, to change it to reverse it if you wanted to, would tear anyone apart, I have heard that many lose themselves completely and just let all of the primal instincts take over, becoming nothing more than another animal, it is not something pleasant, by the same token, It would give the vampire a form of control, a reserve a knowledge of when is too much and what is not acceptable, And as others have said, I do not believe any one is absolutely evil unless it is by choice, you can be a vampire and choose not to be Evil, everything in that life I believe is a choice, you choose how you want to define yourself and the rest will follow suit, that is what I think.
to me a vampire is a person who is either dead or is living among the people that he or she preys on and either takes from them blood or energy from as not all vampire are the bloodsucking type. They do have a soul but it is always trapped undernenth the thirst for whatever they crave in the middle of the night.
I was all set to respond to this question until I saw that it was "undead only." I know LOTS of "rel vampires" who are NOT "just role players", but have yet to meet anyone who would qualify as undead. Vampires, as far as I'm concerned, have something in them that makes them crave the life energies of others, be it in the form of blood or emotion or just straight up.
Yes, I for one do have a soul...that spiritual part of me that lives on after/between death/between lives. And I'm only evil when I intend to be. ;) Evil is in the heart of the individual, not their "species." (yeah, bad word, but you get the point)
Sorry for the undead comment I was being pissy with the need for definition, there are too many definitions and literal BS.
One-upmanship with technicalities.
I want the vampires as close to the undead as possible, like supernatural …. To start to talk.
What I find ironic on a Vampire site is the amount of people who truly don’t believe in the vampire.
That’s like joining a Christian rave and denigh god or that other one …. Jc Mohamed something.
So please don’t be put off by the undead…. I was just annoyed with the stone throwers
If indeed you are looking for undead specimen for your own gain and knowledge, studies and or otherwise...A message will do.
I really doubt that their are undead vampires on VR, i mean yes i can see being a psy vampire but i really do not think their are true vampires on VR, i mean for me that is hard to believe...
Again, it comes down to how you'd define a 'true' vampire. If by that, you mean a hollywood-myth, Vlad Dracul type who can't go out in the sun and is scared of crosses, you'll be disappointed.
Nowadays, a 'true' or 'real' vampire is someone who takes energy from another being, whether by blood, or siphoning the energy directly, or by other means. There are plenty of this kind on VR. I should know, i'm one of them.
Ok! I'm trying to follow this whole conversation so bear with me.
Yes I consider myself a vampire. The thirst is bothersome but I have found ways to control it. The sunlight is a HUGE problem for me, but also I have found ways to deal with that until I can get better suited in a position that I can deal with. (job wise) It does not matter how tired I am during the day, as soon as the sun is down I am alive again. (by alive i mean awake).
I do not know where the murder comment came into play, but I did see that to drink blood you have to kill (if I read it right). I do not agree with that. I for one have killed no one and as mentioned above I do drink blood.
What defines you as a vampire? Strange question, it's like being in love I suppose, you just know that you are, balls to bones, it's always there in your mind, it affects everything you do and say right down to the way you think and live.
As to soul and evil, for me soul - yes I suppose so, but not in a religious sense. Evil, well thats just a name others give you depending on there view on your actions and beliefs.
That's true but most of us share at least similar perspectives on where the line becomes pretty clear in the evil aspect at least. There may be a lot of grey before that point but most of us have long since come to an agreement on the evil in questions like murder, rape, torture, etc.
You kind of stepped into it, didn't you? I can relate having a similar thread myself that blew up in my face.
1. I am not undead.
2. I do not sleep in a coffin.
3. The sun does not cause me to burst into flames.
4. I have been a Sang vampire for 26 years.
5. I feed on swans, donors and through BDSM blood play.
6. Yes, I have a soul.
7. They don't cal me Wicked for nothing.
how can you define a vampire as real?is like me asking someone to define their god to see if they are real....but yes i am evil
To answer this question is a lil complicaited for me..YES I am a vampire I do not drink blood but love the taste and I love to bite. You see I am an energy drinking I thrive off of energy and crave it. Sometimes I get too much and need to expell it almost like a gass build up when you fart..I am neather good nore bad I am Chaos I am the Line runing down the center of the Yin and Yang..So you ask me what sets me off..Well I am diffrent I am neather good or bad..I am Chaos..
Yes I do see what your saying, I guess a little more about me so you can understand where im coming from.
I believe there are vampires and no not Hollywood types.
I even go as far to say anything to do with a vampire and the church is bogus and just like witchcraft the church trying to make it’s self more powerful by assimilating copying or destroying.
Pretending a cross would stop one? Pretending holy water will? Such poppycock.
I have the same view with the king arther stories, why when you have the power of the land England due to the sword would you go after a dinner set (grail) from a religion that was doing what it was doing to the population and not even mentioned in the supposed time when a king arther could of lived in the first testament.
And Merlin is way out of the time scale for this story, still that’s another post.
So I don’t see why the sun would affect a vampire, or a cross or holy water.
Im interested in what makes you believe your one.
I drain energy for magic not food, I drink and use blood in magic or play not coz im a vampire, im not. I admire the image and wish to know more.
How do I define myself as a vampire?? hmm tough, umm I like to say because of the being able to take energy thing. But there is more to it. I feel like I've been around longer than the 15 years I've been living. Also yeah, I do believe I have a soul. I always think I sometimes can remember at least some things about some past life (who knows, might be delusional or something.
Or the imagination- who knows??
Kosmos --
Lavisbre, how do you use energy and blood in magic? Call me clueless, but it really sounds intriguing. I'm guessing it's something to do with the Chaos magic you mentioned?
Wow...look...someones thrown a stone into a pond...and ended up with a frikkin Tsunami...
This thing could go on for ages...
What is a true vampire?
How does one define vampire?
Are vampires undead?
Is the such a thing as undead?
To state just a few questions this one subject generated...every answer varies on ones experiences or beliefs...or both.
Now im sure this individual may have found what he is looking for...but all i see is a bunch of people spitting there words at each other only to have those words lost to the wind...
Can we wrap this up...seriously?!
"I mean...how retarded do you have to be...?"
Hey Carnalxviolence
No I won’t call you clueless, my practice is experimental and not common knolidge.
It’s an extension from menstrual blood and semen.
I also use it to write sigils, the reasoning is writing in blood seems historically to form a bond with user and spell.
I also use it in sexual acts with a woman who believes she is a vampire, bugger to clean the sheets after lol
1) I am a Vampire, as I derive sustenance by feeding off the energies of others through one method or another.
2) I cannot remember the second question.
3) I am not evil. While many confuse "Dark" with "Evil", I am not so naive. I am aware that, though my 'ability' is deemed Dark, being Evil is a personal choice. Myself, I prefer the "Doing what one feels is right, as long as it doesn't harm others unnecessarily" method, which is quite far from evil.
very well said max...
I only feed from energy and i do consider myself vamp. however, i dont mind sunlight. I do love the night. but i love the colors of the day as well. I feel things within energy and i sense bad things when they are coming. I always felt ive had a soul. I dont consider myself any more evil than any other person on this earth. But to many im probably just another average person. Not to myself though.
hmmm the whole soul thing stymies me..for exampl a soul in what context judeo christian? or Hindu? It is hard to define.
ok i know my last post i said i am evil...but how can one define evil?are we as vampires evil jusr because we drink blood or feed off of energy?soul whats that?
Evil is a term that others use on you depending the rules and ideas that they live by, one mans evil is another's slightly strange.
To be fair you cant say you are a vampire beacuse every 1 thinks different things you can say it to yourself but say it to pritty much anyone else and they more than likely wont beleave you. Im not sure if i beleave in the kind of vampires in book and films but no one can answer what a real vampire is coz no one can prove what one is.
the dark x brings up a good point. i guess without true definition of souls (or even a true one on vamps) there never really will be an answer. To me a soul always was what was inside of us and lives forever even after death. but thats the catholic view. souls are put in by god at conception yadda yadda. but i have never really looked up any other definitions for a soul to even begin on deciding what it means.
evil is a question of ones will as is the soul that drives the mind and body
I am a true vampire, and yes I have a sould.
And as far as evil goes, I don't personaly think of myself as evil but if you piss me off I transform into a being of pure chaos that will destroy and kill any and everything and one so I guess I am half and half
I have no soul
I am evil
I'm the dead that can not die
I can live on blood or nothing at all though sometimes I prefer uncooked meat
I am willing to kill for my food
any other questions?
*raises hand* ima vampire.
i do have a soul.
am i evil? no more so then the next person. vampires are evil only based on their actions, not their nature. they must behave badly.
do i do questionable things? sometimes.
but i practice some minor magic to just keep my natural darkness in control. so i think that makes me not evil.
Good and evil---aesthetic principals of a false God.
And dahlings, if you were really vampires, I highly doubt you would be at this site 24/7.
Gotta be honest.
There is life outside the internet. Try it.
*waits for the uproar*
hi kittenlovecraft
*uproar* lol
your entitaled to your oppinion flower and power too you ... even if you sound like someones mum lol
yes there is life outside the net... but this is so adictive and full of my type of people.
i wont denigh some on here are roll playing and defend there stance on vampire by word play and so forth ...
i also belive there are a couple of people i would call vampire.
xKittenLoveCraftx, you're completely right. What big bad vampire would be on the Internet all the time XD
Though I don't doubt there are some real vamps here.
As for the original post I don't believe anybody, vampire or non, can have a lack of a soul. I think the soul is what makes us all alive, makes us walk around.
And evil, simply depends on the person, once again, vampire or non.
