The story of me, myself, and Hiei...intro to main character: Robin (btw, me as author am a modern day vampire...thats how I know all this...but the stats I just made up on birth date and height)

I don't know anyone else like me in my valley. And now I'm the only sanguinarian left in my family...me, Robin Alicia. A modern day vampire.

We aren't like what people describe us to be. We are not immortal. There tends to be increased past life experiences, as though the vampiric soul more commonly is reincarnated, but we are not immortal physically. My kind also only needs about a shot glass's worth of blood if it's human. We cannot shapeshift. It's not like the movies guys. However when a person astrally projects(human, or otherwise), A persons astral form may be modified. And if you are around someone who is "psychically aware", then yes they may see a bat, dog, rabbit, what have you. But, in a physical sense? Not that I've ever seen.

As for abilities, granted, other people that aren't vampires have some unusual talents. But as far as we go, they do seem to occur in a greater percentage of us than society at large.
As for mine? I have a super fast metabolism, which speeds up the healing process. I have night vision so acute, that it hurts my eyes to go out in daytime, even with shades on. And I can smell a cut from 10 yards away. But then when you crave any food you can somehow find it, eh? As for fangs...Do I have them? Yes and no, they are a bit longer than my normal tooth line and dog-like. They had the potential to be longer, but like several of my other teeth, they fused to my jaw at a young age. Like my lower canines which are still my baby teeth, since they fused to the bone before I could shed the hollywood version,I know,but there you have it. But then again, the myths don't necessarily all include fangs in the hollywood has a way of blowing things out of proportion.........so there you have it...what an acctual, real life vampire or whatever you'd like to call us, is acctually like.

My Statistics................

Date of birth: 03/16/92

Hair:Brown

Eyes: It depends on my feeding cycle.........Brown when not thirsty.
But when I am, they turn rusty red from the inside out, giving them that look of an archery target.
And amber when I get violently angry......

Height:5'3"

Weight:125 lbs.

My physical quirks as related to my Vampirism

Feeding cycle: I need about a pint of blood every 2 weeks(animal). At those extremely rare times when it's human, I need about an ounce. Not sure why, maybe it has certain human dependent enzymes or something.

Smell: I can smell all kinds of stuff that most can't, but not a super sense, just a well trained sense. I can smell a fresh cut at about ten yards.

Vision: I have always been a night person, so it stands to reason that I have unbelieveable night vision. In fact, I have perfect color vision at night, even with shades on. But it is a double edged sword, although I can appreciate the beauty of the night like few others, I can't stand the daylight. I get some tremendous headaches from it that won't go away, no matter how hard I try.

Heart Rate:110 b.p.m.

Blood Pressure: 100/40

Body Temp. : 101.2 degrees Farenheit (average)....

Super Powers: Here's a touchy subject. Well, I'm NOT superhuman, just have physiological quirks that seem to fit a legend. I have an extremely fast metabolism, which seems to have my immune system in overdrive. I haven't been sick with anything more than a day in over a decade. That is except when I go too long without blood, then I get some weird gastro-intestinal things going on, like not being able to stomach any "normal" food. And since metabolism is related to healing, I also heal very quickly. Two weeks for broken ribs, in fact. That's one I never try to put to the test. So there you have it, not necessarily the creature of myth, but have enough about me different to fit the mold, so to speak...

I'm tired now...I shall post chapter one in a week or two...when I can
