Hello everyone.
A few of you know about this aspect of myself. However, this is a topic that I have avoided on this site until now. I'm not really sure why, as I'm sure that you are all open-minded enough to not give the topic too much thought. I suppose it just never seemed to fit into our topic of conversations before. For all I know there are other vampires that have been members of the group since its inception & haven't mentioned it for similar reasons.
Well since this site is meant to deal with the important aspects of our lives, & this is obviously a huge part of mine, I've decided to add this forum. I wanted to create this post to explain the facts concerning my kind of vampires...Energy/Psi vampires. I've copy & pasted this information from my posts on another website that I moderate for. Some of you know about the website & some of you don't. So here it is...enjoy. And if any of you have any questions, feel free to either post them here or send me a PM. ;D
"My kind of vampire (energy/psychic vampires) are born with our "condition". That "condition" is that one (or more) of our chakras (energy centers) does not create enough of its' own energy for the us to function properly. (Basically, we are born with deformed chakras.)
There is one glaring difference between an energy/psychic vampire & a "regular" mortal & that is the absolute need to feed. If we do not feed properly, we can suffer from a myriad of ailments. These include (but are not limited to) emotional, neurological, mental & physical instability.
Now, for the little known fact that so many like to abuse. Every "regular" mortal CAN, HAS & WILL energy-feed as we energy/psychic vampires do. The reason for this is that when the human body experiences injury, illness or disease it automatically does this "spontaneous feeding" as a form of self-defense & self-preservation.
What makes a trye energy/psychic vampire is the fact that, even when in perfect health, we will experience one (or more) of the mentioned consequences to not feeding.
As for people who say, "Well, yes. I tend to get headaches when I do not feed from others." I am afraid that what you are most likely experiencing is a psychosomatic response that you have trained yourself to have in order to further create the illusion that you are, indeed, some type of vampire.
If the only side-effect that a true energy/psychic vampire had to not feeding was a headache, it would be a crippling headache that would stop normal functioning. Like an extremely severe migraine.
I hope that this has answered your questions, Severus. If anyone has any questions, feel free to PM me.
Sincerely,
Laurasia "
"'Commonly Asked Questions About Psi/Energy Vampires'"
1: What is the defining characteristic of Psi/Energy vampirism? The definate physical need to absorb energy from an outside source in order for your own system to function properly.
2: What are some of the symptoms of Psi/Energy vampirism? One of the main symptoms is that the vampire will have a "draining" effect on other people around them either physically or emotionally. Most other symptoms are brought about by not feeding properly & can include...Fatique, headaches, depression, lowering of the immune system, irritability, inability to focus, digestive problems, psychological & neurological disturbances. (Please note that these symptoms tend to be EXTREME, meaning that the headache I mentioned before would be a migraine not a simple tension headache.)
3: Are Psi/Energy vampires born the way they are or "turned"? The vast majority of us are born the way that we are. There is some controversy as to whether a Psi/Energy vampire is even able to "turn" another person. While perhaps not entirely impossible, the act would be EXTREMELY hard & rare.
4: I am highly empathetic, does that mean that I am a Psi/Energy vampire? No. While it is true that many Psi/Energy vampires have high empathy levels, that is not our defining feature.
5: I have the ability to absorb energy, does that make me a Psi/Energy vampire? Not neccesarily, again that is not our defining feature.
6: Are Psi/Energy vampires psychic? Not neccesarily. It is depends on the individual.
7: What types of energy do Psi/Energy vampires feed from? We all feed from different types & not all of us can feed from every type of energy. Some of the energy types that we tend to feed from include...Electrical, emotional, sexual, chakra/pranic/life-force, atmospheric (weather), kinetic.
8: Do Psi/Energy vampires eat food? Yes.
9: Do Psi/Energy vampires burn in the sunlight? No.
10: Are Psi/Energy vampires evil? No (Just like with "regular" people, it depends on the individual.)
11: If a Psi/Energy vampire bites me will I turn? No.
12: Do Psi/Energy vampires belong to covens? Not neccesarily.
13: Are all Psi/Energy vampires automatically embued with magical powers? No. These are gifts learned through time that every person, vampire or not, can do.
14: Are Psi/Energy vampires and Lycans enemies? No.
15: Do Psi/Energy vampires kill their victims? No.
16: Why do victims hate to be called victims? Because they are not victims. They are called donors. It is a consentual relationship.
17: What is a "willing donor"? A willing donor is someone who agrees to allow a vampire to feed from them. For Psi/Energy vampires, the best donors are those who are "conduits".
18: What is a "conduit"? A conduit is someone who has the ability to absorb large amounts of energy. However, unlike a Psi/Energy vampire, they DO NOT use that absorbed energy to fuel their own systems. Instead they "hold" the absorbed energy until they are able to release it, idealy to a Psi/Energy vampire. If a conduit does not RELEASE this extra energy, they will begin to develop symptoms very similar those experienced by Psi/Energy vampires that have not fed properly. (NOTE: The key distinction between the two is that the vampire will develop symptoms from not ABSORBING energy efficiently & the conduit will develop symptoms from not RELEASING energy efficiently.)
19: Do Psi/Energy vampires prefer to feed through willing donors? Yes, definately. It makes feeding more readily accessible & is more ethical than feeding without someone's knowledge.
20: Are vampires superior? No.
21: Are mortals lesser beings? No.
22: What are some shielding techniques that an Energy/Psi vampire can use when they do not want to feed? There are many different techniques & some are easier than others. (Also anyone can use them to stop the flow of energy, either in or out. Therefore they are also the best defense for a person to prevent themselves from being fed from.) Here are a couple of the most effective kinds...
Basic Shielding Technique:
Simply visualize yourself surrounded by a protective circle of white light. Or you can envision yourself encompassed by a cone of white light. When you are able to hold the vision solidly, your shield is up.
*************************
Advanced Shielding Technique:
~This is a bit harder to hold & should be practiced to achieve its full effect.~
Visualize yourself surrounded by 4 mirrors (with the reflective sides facing away from you). They should all be touching, forming a solid box. Once you are able to clearly hold this add 2 more mirrors. One above & one below, also facing away from you. You should now be unable to see yourself at all. Only a complete "box" of mirrors. Once you are able to clearly hold this visualization, your shield will be up.
Remember, practice makes perfect.
*NOTE: I just want to acknowledge that some of these questions were taken from Kirsty's similar thread regarding vampires as a whole."
Sincerely,
Laurasia
