fandomaniai was trying to think about something that ALL vampire mythos have in common.
*they have fangs (nope, Kindred vamps don't)
*they can't be in the sun (nope, Dracula and Mick can be)
*they sleep during the day (nope, a lot of vamps are awake during the day - most are just not out in the sun)
*they hate garlic (nope, my vamps love garlic on things, 'specially spaghetti)
*they abhor crosses (depends what the wielder believes in)
*they can't eat real food (nope, there are some vamps that can, they just don't get any sustinance from it)
*they drink blood. this was it, the one thing that i thought of that crosses all mythos.
what do you guys all think?

Really? Wussie vampires when they don't get enough blood? That'd be... interesting to see. Although i suppose not quite as compelling as the monsters we see.
Eww... fat sucking vampire! Although, good for the US population!
