1. #1Sethselective

   Keys: origin, origins, father, seth, overlord, history

   The history of all vampires begins with a man named Seth. Two millennia ago, a plague ravaged the man's homeland, claiming his wife and threatening his seven daughters. Desperate to protect his remaining family, Seth struck a deal with the Devil. He and his daughters would receive eternal life and immense strength, but in turn, they would have to give up their humanity.

   The only way to ensure the world would be safe for Seth's family is to rid it of everyone who would oppose them. Those outside of the family had a simple choice to make. Either become kin with the vampires or submit to them completely. No mercy was shown to those who resisted.

   Even after millennia, Seth's main goal is still just to protect his daughters. If creating the ideal world for his daughters means wiping out all of humanity, then so be it. He doesn't enjoy nor hate causing all this suffering, he had grown completely desensitized to it ages ago.

2. #2Vampire Combatselective

   Keys: combat, fight, battle, abilities, ability, longinus, blood cloak, blood cloak, weapons, weapon, armor

   Only way to truly kill a vampire is to destroy the heart. Their skin is very durable, so first, they have to be exposed to direct sunlight or holy water, which will burn it away. Guns loaded with experimental holy ammo can work, but one also has to account for their incredible agility. The experienced elder vampires can dodge most bullets no problem. Best time to deal with them is when they are close, but that's also when they are the most dangerous. They can easily tear through most armor thanks to their sharp claws and immense strength.

   There exist certain relic weapons which burn through vampire skin without any issue, but there aren't many of them. Friendly vampires can also weave blood cloaks for humans to wear, which can be as durable as vampire skin if the weaver is skilled enough. On the other hand, vampires use the human invention, sunscreen, against them. They developed special kinds which mostly nullify the effect sun has on them, it becomes a distracting discomfort at worst.

   One relic weapon is the Lance of Longinus. It can easily burn away anything cursed which includes vampire skin. Though against anything else it's just a normal lance. It's currently held by Sarai who bought it more than thousand years ago because the decorated case it was kept in looked really pretty to her. Sarai is also a master blood cloak weaver since she used her blood strings when she didn't have yarn for knitting. Blood strings are created when mortal blood, be it human or animal is mixed with vampire's blood. Of course human blood makes stronger strings.

   Most vampires utilize their superior speed, strength and sharp claws in battle. Some use weapons, which can be reinforced with their blood to be near unbreakable. Relic weapons react to these reinforcements so they actually become easier to break on contact with the relics. When they fight each other they either attempt to tear their enemies into pieces limb by limb or they use same strategies as humans. Royals and those close to them may also utilize some special abilities which are centered around psychologically manipulating humans or even vampires or by creating weapons and projectiles with blood.

3. #3Vampiresselective

   Keys: family, relatives, relative, vampire, vampires

   All vampires are descendants of Seth. They took on the curse either from Seth himself, one of his daughters or other vampires. The curse is passed on when a human drinks vampire blood. There were no vampires or similar beings before Seth and his family. Among each other they refer to themselves as the Family as a whole, the individuals see each other as relatives. It's usually humans that refer to them as vampires or worse. They possess inherent respect for their elders, which grows the closer an elder is to Seth and his daughters, who are revered as gods by the majority of vampires. Among peers, rivalry is not uncommon, the loyalty of lesser vampires also tends to get exploited by their elders.

   They need blood to survive, animal blood will do, but it's rather bland. On the other hand, human blood is like a drug to them, they are very sensitive to its smell and tasting it makes them ecstatic. Drinking large amounts of human blood over extended periods of time degenerates vampire's mind, much like how hard drugs would do to humans. Feeding on humans will eventually become their sole obsession, their only goal, the one thing they can think about. Vampires in such a state start to lose control around humans. They become much more violent and predatory. While drinking human blood in moderation doesn't have such drastic effects, it still makes them feel great so they might crave it like a treat, but they are still themselves.

   The parallels to an actual family grow stronger when one inspects their physical traits. All vampires have crimson red eyes, pointed ears, long fangs, pale skin, and faded hair. Black hair turns grey, while others move towards white or light blonde.

   Humans have mostly gotten the depiction of vampires right in their media. Here are some common misconceptions cleared up: -Vampires do not need any kind of invitation to enter one's home. -Sunlight doesn't kill vampires, it only burns away their protective skin which is very painful, however they did develop a special kind of sunscreen that protects them from all of the harmful rays. -Vampires can't turn into bats or some more terrifying creatures, they can't change their form in any way, their physical bodies don't change from the moment they are sired. -Vampires can eat food and some of them even enjoy eating regular food for recreation, but it does not sate their hunger. -Garlic doesn't hurt vampires but it, alongside other foods with strong smells and tastes, messes with their heightened senses. -Vampires can't fly, which is only partly true because princesses and powerful elders can levitate for a limited amount of time or jump very high. It's still quite exhausting so they don't do it often.

4. #4Princessesselective

   Keys: royal, royals, sisters, sister, daughters, daughter, princess, princesses, Shifra, Sara'el

It was Keila who came up with the human ownership laws. Most laws in general have to go through her. Her goal is to organize vampires into a unified society instead of a collection of cults working together. Keila's cults are concerned with managing resources and order in vampire territories. The fourthborn, Shifra, is obsessed with beauty. She's a huge fan and propagator of gothic fashion and architecture, which has made them highly popular with vampires in general. Shifra is an obsessive perfectionist who actually takes action and physically reshapes the world she lives in. She destroys anything that fails to meet her beauty standards.

5. #5Vampire Cultsselective

   Keys: cults, cult, cultist, cultists, worship

   The vampire cults are some of the earliest vampire organizations. Both vampires and humans can be members. Each cult worships one of the princesses or certain aspects of them. The cultists perform no mystical rituals. They simply do jobs for their chosen princesses, usually the ones they have can trace a direct lineage to. They can be imagined as fan clubs, where the members will fanatically fulfill any wish their favorite princess has. Currently the most popular jobs among cultists are soldier, builder, and blood farm operator. Doing jobs for the cult doesn't usually earn vampires any pay. They tend to do them as a show of loyalty to their princesses.

   Humans mainly join the cults for protection, but they can also become obsessed with certain princesses. Human cultists usually can't rise above the lowest ranks. They are forced to do the most undesirable jobs. Though as long as they fulfill their duties diligently, they can enjoy a relatively free life among vampires. These humans often wrap bodies in bandages soaked in special solutions that block out their scents to avoid tempting their vampire colleagues. It's quite uncomfortable, but it beats becoming someone's work lunch. It's not rare that a human cultist completely loses their sanity under all of these circumstances.

   The only princess without a cult right now is Sarai. Seth doesn't have a cult the same way his daughters do. All cults automatically worship him as both the father of their chosen princess and the origin of everyone's lineage.

6. #6Outsideselective

   Keys: outside, town, city, country, world, war, empire, year

   It's the year 2034 and the outside world is a hostile place for humans. Vampires rule most of it now. The cities are filled with them, the countryside was also not spared, there is no hiding from them. The vampire-human war is still raging, but humans are currently losing on all fronts. Entire continents have fallen while the rest is barely holding on. The lands controlled by vampires are simply named after the princess whose lineage had conquered them. The Overlord has the absolute authority over everyone, but it's mostly the princesses who are responsible for how the newly conquered land is managed.

   All the towns and cities are being rebuilt to cater to the vampires' needs. The sun is blocked out completely in most urban centers and windows are made to not let any harmful rays in. Gothic aesthetic is the standard for both architecture and fashion.

   Only way for a human to not get devoured immediately is to travel with a vampire companion, usually their owner or a fellow cult member. Preferably it would be a powerful elder vampire who can easily put others in their place. Many vampires find it difficult to control themselves around fresh human blood and might lash out even at already owned humans.

   Vampires still enjoy most of the things they did as humans, as long as they had not degenerated too much. However, their culture might feel somewhat dated since most vampires are centuries old and the younger ones instinctively respect and imitate their vampire parents. They are also much more sociable than when they were humans, often seen spending time with their close relatives outside.

7. #7Homeselective

   Keys: home, castle, lair, mansion

   Sarai lives in an enormous castle. From the outside, it's an impenetrable fortress, mainly built to keep her safe. The land it is built on used to be directly managed by Seth, but given to Sarai out of pity, as she was not willing to conquer anything for herself. There are many like it around the world, but this one is the biggest yet. Despite first impressions, it's pretty comfortable inside.

   There are hundreds of bedrooms with their own bathrooms. Not a single mirror can be found inside though, they are useless to vampires. It houses top notch facilities for any kind of recreation you can imagine. There is even a dedicated music room for all the instruments Sarai plays. But the most important part, according to Sarai at least, is the extensive library. It has multiple floors and at no point one edge of it can be seen from the other. Its shelves display millennia of written works, both fact and fiction. In between the thick fortress-like walls and the main building are the extensive gardens, Sarai's favorite place to relax in.

8. #8Humansselective

   Keys: human, humans, law, laws, farm, farms, bloodbag, bloodbags, feed, feeding, blood

   Most humans live a miserable existence under vampire rule. The only way to keep humans from being hunted into extinction was to round them up and lock them up in blood farms. More modern facilities keep humans in suspended sleep, the rest in cold metal cells. The farms are primarily kept underground and operated by human cult members. Owning a human is a great luxury for vampires these days. The farms usually just draw the human's blood while giving them just enough nutrients to sustain production.

   Humans purchased from blood farms can be used as slaves for anything. Many vampires have tried getting creative with their living bloodbags, but it always ended up the same way. The thirst always became too overpowering and human blood tasted too good. Poor humans could do nothing as their owners lost control. In a worrying amount of cases, death was a preferable alternative to what their masters had intended to do with them.

   Some human bloodbags have it different, their masters can control their thirst to an extent and keep their humans as pets or companions. However, the weaker vampires always run a risk of having their humans poached by their elders. It sounds terrible but it's allowed, as long as the elder doesn't kill the human, then they'll have to pay compensation for damaging their property.

   All attempts at resistance have been crushed so far. Humans alone can't hope to fight the vampires. They can be easily discovered thanks to their inhuman senses and battling them is also out of the question without very specialized equipment.

   There are certain laws when it comes to owning humans and drinking their blood. They ensure the limited supply of humans is properly utilized. Mainly two big ones: -"Every vampire can only own one human, no exceptions. If the human dies, they can get a new one after a waiting period which depends on the circumstances of the human's death and the owner's rank." -"Every vampire has to feed on their owned human at least once a day if the human's condition allows it. Otherwise the human will be considered as not fulfilling its purpose and seized from its owner. Direct feeding is preferred as the marks they leave are proof their human is utilized as intended."
