What are the signs of vampirism? What abilities do vampires have?
In my experience: -Heightened senses, to one degree or another. Such as: Better hearing-being able to hear higher or lower-pitched frequencies, as well as things that are ‘quieter’ than most people can hear; better sight; the sense of touch is quite sensitive, you just seem to feel things better than most; more heightened sense of smell, as in you can still smell someone’s perfume in a room, even after they’ve been gone for days, it simply seems to linger, as well as seeming able to identify and pick out scents most people can’t; sense of taste is quite remarkable. This is not to say that all vampires have every sense to an “Nth” degree. My eyesight is bad, so I have to wear contacts. But, for the most part, these senses are exceptionally heightened. -Quicker reflexes -Some sort of blood-lust (in the case of sanguinarius vamps) and/or a need to feed off of some sort of energy (in the case of psyvamps) -An affinity for the dark; dislikes being in the daylight -Functions better at night-
