Or Fire Elementals!

are vamps affected more by fire than a person would be, I mean? And could they regenerate from a would caused by fire (the Hydra couldn't, and that may or may not be relevant...)

I doubt partial shapeshifting will be allowed, but BMG needs to see all this.

ah, I see........

would a vampire that drank the blood of another vampire be strengthened, weakened, or unaffected by it?

SO don't make it a special weakness. If vampires are all fleshy and watery like normal beings then they'l lbe as hard to burn as normal human beings. The vampire weakness to fire comes from two sources -

1: Undead vampires fear fire because fire is a symbol of cleansing and what have you.

2: As vampire bodies dry out they become dry and more vulnerable to fire than normal. This is the VtM explanation.

Drinking a vampire's blood is just like drinking anything elses blood, just it's more deadly to the vampire being drained then it is to a non vampire being drained.

Edit- Fire isn't a special weakness, and it never has been for these vampires...

Edit 2 - And fire = cleansing? Usually water = cleansing (Which might explain the unable to cross a body of water thing...)

ah, I see........should we go to the RP now?

Royalspork · 05-28-2004, 11:11 PM

yes to the rp people

If you wanted to bring more VtM into this, you coudl say that elder vampires can cocnentrate the blood they take in, meaning that a no0b vampire and an elder vamprie ahve the same amount of blood, but the amount of energy (or blood points) that a fixe amoutn of elder blood will provide is more than the same amoutn of no0b blood.

What is VtM?

Also, Dante, are you on a different type of computer or something? You seem to be having many more typoes then normal.
