Changes: Vampires

Revision as of 00:32, 31 July 2011

Vampires are blood drinking creatures of myth that have been encountered by the Winchesters, Gordon Walker and other hunters. Little has been revealed about vampires, such as their organization, weaknesses and their origin - all vampires originate from the Alpha Vampire.

They have appeared as monsters of the week in 'Dead Man's Blood', 'Bloodlust' and 'Live Free or Twihard'.

Characteristics

A vampire's appearance is that of a normal human. However, they all have common features, such as sharp, pointed, retractable teeth that emerge from their gums and extend beyond their human teeth, and immortality. They live forever, and several depicted vampires are hundreds of years of age or older. Their diet is based strictly on blood, and while human blood is prefered, they can survive by ingesting the blood of other animals (although one such vampire, Lenore, refers to cow blood as 'disgusting'). Vampires can only be killed by beheading, and then, they leave behind a corpse that can be examined to find their vampire teeth.

Type of Hierarchy

Vampires are organized into nests, with eight to ten vampires residing in each, with a mate for life. The younger members of the nest typically do the hunting for their elders, bringing back humans to be fed upon for days or even weeks.

Reproduction

Vampires reproduce virally, by injecting humans with their blood or having said humans drink their blood. This is the only known method of creation among vampires. Vampirism is rarely curable, with the only known cure being a ritual recorded by an ancestor of the Campbell family of hunters. The ritual requires the blood of the vampire who converted the subject, and will not work if the subject has ingested human blood. The conversion is painful, but no secondary effects are retained.

Known Abilities

Superstrength
Superagility
Supersenses
Invulnerability

Weaknesses

As other supernatural creatures, they have weaknesses that hunters can use on their advantage to kill them.

Beheading - Beheading is the most used method to kill vampires.
Dead man's blood - The use of blood from the recently deceased can also be used as a method to incapacitate vampires briefly.
Sunlight - While sunlight can hurt them (John Winchester likened it to a really bad sunburn), it's not lethal as it only causes pain to vampires. Other kinds of lights can be harming to their eyes, as they shine more to them than to normal humans.
The Colt - As it can kill almost anything, can be used against vampires
Angels - Can can kill them without difficulty (Castiel killed Lenore by just placing his palm on her head).

 ==Known Abilities==
-*'''Blood drinking - '''vampires possess the supernatural ability to service on human blood and have no need to feed on human food or water.
-*'''Unhuman strength '''- Vampires are shown to be stronger than typical humans, although this strength has been known to vary between them. It has been shown that older vampires are much stronger than humans, which could mean that they become more powerful as they age. [[Gordon Walker]], a hunter, incapacitated Lenore with ease in 'Bloodlust'.
-*'''Unhuman agility''' - They also have shown enough capacity to be able to climb walls with ease, or jump from a floor to other while receiveing no injuries.
-*'''Enhanced senses '''- All vampires' sight, hearing, and smell are enhanced to that of a superhuman level. They can see in the dark, hear a human's heart beat, and their sense of smell is so good, that they can smell human blood from long distances as well or track down other people - or vampires - two miles away. In 'Dead Man's Blood', [[John Winchester]] stated that once a vampire has a person's scent, they'll remember it for life.
-*'''Longevity''' - Vampire's possess a longer lifespan then humans. Vampires have proven to much older than humans. This doesn't mean vampires are immortal though because vampires can die only by decapitation.
+*'''Superstrength'''
-*'''Invulnerability '''- Because vampires are immortal, they can't be killed by coventional weapons and they can't get sick by illness or diseases. However, there are ways to kill a vampire, such as decapitation, which is the most used method by hunters. Also, it has been proven that angels and the Colt can kill vampires as well.
