Do vampires burn in the sunlight?
Are they crippled by garlic and crosses?
Hop into the world of SoDead and find out for yourself...
At first the number of vampire related sightings and incidents were small and isolated but have since increased tremendously over the last decade, awakening Vampires (even Elders) across the world
Since the start of the new century, human caused industrial catastrophes such as: Baia Mare Cyanide contamination, Deepwater Horizon explosion, Jilin Chemical spill and Fukushima Nuclear disaster have all had detrimental impact on the global environment.
This is compounded by human dependence on technologies that has left endless amounts of toxic materials that have entered the air, soil, and water-supplies around the world. This hazardous cocktail is viewed as the catalyst in disrupting the deep slumber of the SoDead.
At first the number of vampire related sightings and incidents were small and isolated but have since increased tremendously over the last decade, awakening Vampires (even Elders) across the world. Rekindling relationships, reigniting old rivalries, and driving endless plotting and scheming as Vampires with opposing ideologies strategize in their pursuit of power in the shadows.
Three Vampire Tribes have now emerged in today’s society. Each with its set of beliefs, values, governance, and more importantly validation as to why they are the rightful heirs of the unending night.
Dare to know more? The saga is only beginning. Enter the world of SoDead...
Not quite...while the sunlight does put vampires into a weakened state, it does not vaporize them completely like you see in the movies. With that being said, they tend to avoid the daylight so they're not caught off-guard by vampire hunters without the ability to defend themselves. However, new innovative cloaking technology that the Gangrels have been developing allows Purified vampires to step out in the sun without losing their strength
Vampires like anywhere dark and silent to rest. Coffins are their preference and help them restore quicker, but they're not necessary and tend to be a luxury good that only Elder vampires and high-status tribe members can afford
If a human is bit by a vampire, they will turn into a vampire without treatment. However, the transformation does not happen right away and occurs gradually over a one week period. There is a 48-hour window after being bit where a human can ingest a synthetic blood to reverse the transformation. Sometimes humans will take advantage of this and intentionally get bit to temporarily use vampires' super strength and powers before turning back
Ha. Ha. Ha. Nothing...vampires are way too powerful to be impacted by something as simple as garlic. This is a common misconception started by Hollywood when they ran out of ideas
Good question...garlic doesn't work, sunlight doesn't work, and neither do wooden stakes. Given the vampires have only recently emerged from the shadows, the vampire hunters are still experimenting with new technology to try and exterminate them. So far, they have discovered that silver significantly weakens them (but does not kill them). Close proximity 5G exposure also seems to put vampires in great pain due to their supersonic hearing.
At this point, nuclear radiation is the only surefire way to kill a vampire. But that obviously comes with lots of collateral damage, so it has only been used sparingly in very specific areas
Yes. Vampires have a very intimate relationship with both bats and other nocturnal animals such as owls and rats. They can summon these animals at will, and command and control them like generals of a nocturnal army
The Gangrel tribe views co-existence with humans as essential. Maintain a view that vampires and humans have a place together in society. They freely mingle out and open to the world. The elders of this tribe have accumulated vast resources (endless $) over the centuries and live an extravagant lifestyle. Some are even viewed as modern-day celebrities/influencers.
The Dark Queen (AKA - Mother of Vampires) is a mystery of sorts...her real identity is unknown with numerous aliases. Legend states she is the 1st child of Cain. She is rumored to travel frequently, but maintains operations in Plovdiv, Bulgaria
This tribe has great disdain for all living creatures. Disgusted at the mere thought of fellow brethren having any level of admiration for humans. These vampires view humans as nothing more than pawns (feedbags) in their thirst to claim power.
The Elder (AKA - Whitey) is one of the most ruthless vampires on Earth. Armond "Whitey" Sye is a 2nd generation vampire who truly exists in the shadows. Questions of his whereabouts and even his existence run rampant, with scattered sightings throughout the Middle East...though, last reported sighting of Whitey was over 20 years ago in 1999.
These vampires are loners, fiercely independent with no formal hierarchy. They maintain a singularly focused view that they are the most powerful creature on the planet. While they understand the general philosophies of the other tribes, they choose not to get involved. Occasionally if there is a common interest, they have been known to partner with both other tribes to work towards a shared goal (e.g., assassins/mercenaries for hire)
None...the Bat Tribe is a loose collection of strong personalities scattered all across the globe
