>>122444202>need to drink blood to survive (whether animal blood is okay and whether it needs to be fresh differs)By far the hardest part but I think I can manage, maybe just use blood from a local butcher? But would red meat give me enough blood?
>direct sunlight instantly kills you (reflected sunlight seems mostly okay though)Kinda sucks, but again, I think I can manage.
>silver burns you as if it's red hotNever really interact with silver.
>garlic hurts youI never eat it.
>looking at crosses and/or religious symbols hurts youCurrent year, won't be a problem.
>no reflection in mirrorsSucks but maybe a camera can be used? I'd like to be able to see myself shaving and stuff.
>can't go inside someone else's home without being invitedI don't go into people's homes without permission now, so this is fine.
>need to sleep in a coffin or casket (in some cases, it also needs to contain dirt from your actual grave)Maybe like orthodox vampires abide by this but I don't even know where I would buy a gothic coffin. I'd prefer a normal bed.
>can't cross any running waterI'm assuming this means rivers and large amounts of water? Surely things like sinks and showers and possibly pools should be fine, right?
>can't walk on consecrated ground or go inside holy places like temples and churchesAgain, current year. I should be okay.
Now, what do you GAIN from being a vampire? From what I see, usually superhuman strength and an almost hypnotic level of charisma are a given. Anything else? Turning into a bat seems kinda cool since I can just simply fly anywhere.
