hmm... time to derail this topic from that particular vampire universe...
'thul have for the past year and a half kept watching the TV series "vampire diaries", and find that they have a fairly well-developed vampire mythos there... but then, with 61 episodes, that is bound to happen.
Though based on books, it was apparent they had just minor details in common (some characters, a bit of the early story, type of setting...), the majority appears to be new stuff...
General basics of vampirism there:
vampires are supernatural
they drink blood. mostly human, but can live less powerfully on animal blood.
Power of a vampire is based on age.
humans become vampire if they die with vampire blood in their system, even in minute amounts. If they don't feed on human blood while transitioning from human to vampire, they die.
Have any of you others watched it?
