The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Here's what Roget's Thesaurus has to say about Vampires:

Vampire: tempter, seducer, enticer, enchanter, charmer, tantalizer, siren, femme fatale, harpy, profiteer, extortionist, monster, fiend, demon, devil, hellhound, lamia, hellion, evil spirit, unclean spirit, evil genius

Vampirish:
Rapacious, ravenous, ravening, vulturous, parasitical, grasping, all-devouring, all-engulfing.

In your reading, fictional or otherwise, what words have you come across or used to describe the Vampiric attributes of a positive persuasion. I need nouns and verbs.

Beautiful, deadly, erotic

As the etymology of the word "Vampire" is derived from the Slavic "vampir", which in turn was derived from the earlier Slavic term "vapir", a combination of the two words "va - pir" meaning "he who feasts"... which was directly derived from the even earlier Slavic/Russian word as first penned in 1047 CE, "Upir'"... which was combined in that same first written appearance together with the adjective "Likhyj" (most likely meaning "long-lasting" or "never-ending"), then the only correct synonym for our modern word "Vampire" is the following:

"Insatiable Feaster"

When it is additionally discovered that the "feasts" to which the verb "pir" ("to feast") specifically refers are the pagan orgiastic feasts as well as the early Christian Agape feasts (also reportedly of a highly sexualized nature), the sort of feasting referred to in the term "Upir'" / "Vapir" becomes blatanly apparent: the same "sexually insatiable" events for which the actual Slavic vampire was most identified historically.

Hence, the best synonym for "Vampire" is, in fact...

"Insatiable (Sexual) Feaster"


- Upir'

I imagine that an excellent list and place to start would be to look at the names of user levels that Cancer has designed for Vampire Rave.

Whelp
Mosquito
Shadow
Marplot
Caitiff
Ghoul
Spook
Phantom
Shade
Fiend
Unclean Spirit
Specter
Wraith

Vampling
Vampire
Savage
Shaitan
Blood Drinker
Changeling
Viper
Firebrand
Savant
Incendiary
Destroyer
Iconoclast
Necromancer
Sire
Master Vampire
Prince

The VR level labels are primarily demonic in origin which harkens back to Roget's definition. Vampling is a good one, as it covers a middle-ground --- neither positive nor negative.

I also liked "deadly" as a modifer. Thanks for the reminders on both.

lethal, graceful, intelligent

romantic assassin, one inflicted with bloodlust, embodiment of glamor

one i always liked (altho the white wolf games have contaminated it a bit), is kin.

otherwise, i think of such terms as silent, dark, wise, watchful, things such as that.

sexy

agent of unrequested hemoglobin reduction.

aloring,seductive and mysterious with a tantalizing bite.

Lover

Bloody desire

We can say with confidence then that real vampirism was indulged in by living beings who, unerringly, were members of the pre-christian and anti-christian high nobility and royalty. The most famous vampire stories, those of Dracula, Bathory and de Rais, support this conclusion. The historical evidence therefore supports the etymological origin of the word ’vampire’ - An Overlord.

Chudail (witchy vampire), Pishacha (ghostly vampire)
dakini (traditional magic vampire love feasting on blood), baital (psychic vampire of phantom)

few dakini is the daity to in few community they worship and pray the dakini here in India for few cases to shield them.

and aboe this all Mother Kali (Goddess Kali) worldly Vampire most powerful than all daities and God in the world as Mother Kali is total power of the God so she called Goddess Power too ( Mother Shakti )

Overlord is one I hadn't thought of, and one must always keep Kali in mind when considering vampires.

Borrower,
A harvester of wasted energy.....

N- enthrallment, bewitchery, winning ways, forbidden fruit
Slang- baited trap, snare, lure, femme fatale, carry away
V- inveigle, engage

I honestly haven't really found much of anything that stems from the positive aspects of vampires, but I would say this, from having read a lot of novels based off them:

Insatiable love, Seductive, Endearingly depressing, and DAMN SEXY!

If there isn't any real discussion going on here, this won't remain open long.

All this is getting are one word posts.
