Prologue
Vampires Exist & Don't Buy Into The BS Hollywood Films Showcased About Them *From the words of Carmella Quan Sun*
"To anyone who has been blissfully unaware, vampires are real. And they walk among you. It is unknown just when the vampires roam the earth all that is certain is the creatures of the night have blended into human society and lived many secret lives. It wasn't till some time in the 80s when Darius made himself known to the human public. Sure there were your share of skeptics and there were those cautious to the reveal but, thanks to the respective guilds manipulation of media it wasn't long till the humans managed to embrace us.
And now the vampire society has become a public knowledge. Despite this you still have some dangerous vampires out there and there are five things you must be aware of so that you won't be used as a late night snack.
1. Not All Vampires Burn In The Sun: There are many different kinds of vampires and for some sunlight has a different effect on them. Some burn in the sun while it mostly just weakens them and leaves them vulnerable for an attack.
2. Vampires Aren't Tragic Romantics: That's just BS vampires would spew to bring mortals to a false sense of security. We don't constantly whine about our vampirism or try to kill ourselves to be rid of it. Because our roommate inside our head wouldn't let us if we wanted to. Speaking of
3. Every Vampire Has An Inner Demon: No matter which species of vampire they usually have an Inner Demon that dwells within them. You must do what you can to keep it satisfied. If you don't the end results won't be pleasing for you.
4. Vampires Are Dangerous Predators: Sure we can be affable but at the end of the day you shouldn't keep your guard down on even the nicest ones. One day their predatory instincts will kick in.
5. Only Live Human Blood Works: Remember that whole feeding on animals nonsense? BS. That is just lies elder vampires would provide newborns to give them false hope. The unfortunate fact is vampires must feed to keep their Demon from wrecking havok. And the blood must be fresh. No matter how much you'd resist, the thirst always wins."

Very interesting! The stronger the vampire the better they can handle it but of course there are some species of Vampires who can handle it just fine. Dhampires of course generally don't have a problem with it. Oh yeah Vampires in this universe are straight up monsters and they aren't as weak as the Buffyverse Vamps. Generally speaking a normal human going up against a vampire is getting mulched. The inner demon is a part of them and resides within their mind and soul and they can be downright nasty. It is possible to appease them and find common ground with your inner demon, in fact that is the recommended route, but they are not to be underestimated and can harm the vampire and even take them over! They are dark creatures of the night after all! Oh yeah. In fact, drinking animal blood is a common hazing ritual for new vampires. Puking is the usual result of this.

Chapter IThe Dreaded
A young woman was walking through an empty alley in the dark when a Vampire jumped out at her. She screamed.
Carmella heard her scream from her vantage point atop a high-rise building.
The girl backed in fear. "Please, you don't have to do this. I can get you money." The vamp grabs her and smiled as he looked at her with full predatory glee. "Its not your money I'm interested in." He bared his sharp canines before her.
"Somebody help! Aah! Aah!"
Just as he was about to go in for the kill his scent picked up another presence near by. He spun around to see The Draculina herself emerge from the darkness of the alley. Carmella smirked as she casually advanced towards the other vampire, who now has become the prey.
"Hate to break it to you but the lady isn't interested. Maybe you're coming off as too needy"
The vampire immediately lets go and falls on his knees. "O-OH FUCK IT'S YOU!!!" The vampire shouted "F-Forgive me, please! I had no idea I was feeding on your clan's turf. Just don't give me the Final Death!"
"....What" Carmella stares at the vampire with a blank expression.

Note: Oh the one where she owned The Archmage isn't deleted. I just gave it its own short story in the horror thread.

"I'M SORRY FOR BREAKING THE RULES. PLEASE DON'T RED GAZE ME!!!"
(Yeah. Definitely a youngling. That doesn't work on other vamps, unless if you're an Elder. Still....fuck)
Carmella takes a deep breath then exhales, the rush that she felt prior to fighting the vampire has all but vanished. "If this happens again, I won't be merciful."
The vampire nods then transformed into a swarm of flies and flew into the night sky. The young woman rushed up to Carmella and embraced her with a hug. "OH MY GOD, THANK YOU! THANK YOU!"
Note: Youngling is slang for a vampire who just got turned and is learning the ropes.

Carmella's finally getting the recognition she deserved from that smacking down that loser fraud and now the low level trash don't even dare cross her path!

Chapter II The Dahmpir & The Sorceress Detective"OH MAN! I bet tears were streaming down and everything" Dr. Lucien D'Artagnan bellowed out with laughter as her patient Carmella Quan Sun was telling her the story of her encounter with a vampire who broke the council rules. "Your Doctor/Patient etiquette knows no bounds Doc. So after all of that what I've got was me walking the young lady back to her apartment." Carmella explained
Dr. D'Artagnan calmed down and relaxed in her chair. "So all of this because you've taught The Archmage the value of manners?"
"Honestly, I'm starting to doubt that was The Archmage. I mean, an Archmage has enough magic ability to be able to go toe to toe against Dad" Carmella explained
Lucien thought about this for a moment. She has never encountered one herself but she has heard stories and has known those to have fought a variation of The Archmage. Yet the more she hears about this one the more she questioned if the current holder of the title is worthy of it? "An Archmage is the most prestigious title a magic user could have, Carmella. For someone to pretend to be one is an act that is considered unforgivable among the Magi Collective."

They've got a good relationship and you can tell that she's definitely the type of confidant who can and will offer real wisdom to Carmella while still being someone she can banter with all while being someone who treats Carmella just like a person and a friend rather than royalty like everyone at The Coven. Interesting analysis about The Archmage. We could say that, while he's talented, his training isn't complete at this point in time and his Master sent him to the meeting as a lesson in defeat and humility so he'll learn to take things more seriously in the future. Granted, this could very well have gotten him killed horribly buuuut if he's dumb enough to go in there and act like that in the first place he kinda deserves it. Sink or swim, bitch.

I drive my black 1967 Impala down the busy section of Castle City as the heavy rain hammers down like a drum. There are two things about Castle City that it's infamously known for: It's always night and it never rains. Some could chalk it up to paranoia but I say something is coming and I'd best prepare myself when the real storm hits. I turn the volume up a few notches so that Ozzy can play his tribute to the Apostles he made deals with to gain him immortality and a place in music history. When you're a Dark Magi, there's no room for morality. I'll give him this, he is not a bad singer. Metal keeps me sharp, especially for the meeting I'm about to partake in. My name is Violet Ragnarson. And I'm a Sorceress.

My name is Violet Ragnarson. And I'm a Sorceress. It's like the opposite of Burmecia! Neat! finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Burmecia Like her choice in music! Violet knows how to rock out and she looks good while doing it! Nice intro to the series bro and I'm looking forward to her awesome adventures!

OT: So I've seen that Jamie Foxx vampire movie on Netflix. What I got from it is I can come up with better and more intimidating vampires than that movie ever could. I also watched Demon Slayer as a palate cleanser.

It's another one of those movies that tries to be like Lost Boys but fail in a cringe worthy manner.

Honestly, I think Live Action Vampire Movies peaked with Blade. I can't recall one quite as badass as the first two. The 3rd was....well it had a fun final battle.
