Vampires
A cherry red sun hangs overhead, pleasant rays caressing Vampire hide without searing pain or bubbling flesh. Oh how they long for the days when they walked beneath that crimson warmth! Now confined to the darkness, born without the melanin-producing gland essential to the absorption of the sun’s UV rays, and killing the gland in infected humans.
Coveted are the memories of expansive forests, exhilarating hunts, and no law to restrain the Vampires from their desires. Their form quickly morphed after passing through the veil to this plane, transforming from hideous demon-like beast to a more pleasurable human-like facade; the better to hunt you with my dear.
However, in the throes of hunger the beautiful disguise dissolves spontaneously into a horrendous abomination ready to sink its teeth into tasty flesh.
The vampire is able to lower two fangs and make his or her eyes glow lightly at will, for purposes of intimidation. However, once they draw in for the kill, their faces contort in the visage of a demon, the eyes glowing more fiercely, and many more razor sharp fangs becoming visible, giving them the maw of a shark.
-Live an eternity without aging.
-Vampires are not born on this side of the plane and can only occur through infection of a human host.
-Can be killed by being beheaded, silver through the heart, or over exposure to the sun.
-Churches or other communal, high traffic areas are avoided by Vampires, because the high energy levels and human bodies make it hard to control their thirst.
-Heightened Senses make them weak to loud noises, bright lights and strong smells.
-Vampires are sensitive to Electro Magnetic Fields.
-Vampires have a UV Allergy, which will cause blisters as well as begin to weaken the Vampire after about an hour in sunlight and overexposure to the sun can cause death.
