Contents
Overview
Freestian Vampires, also known as Freethinker Vampires and with the latin name of; Vampyrus Freestia Sapientis, are powerful, fully sentient, bipedal carnivores and are among the most infamous of the residents of The Freethinkers. Able to change between a 'human' and dragon-like 'combat' form at will and possessing incredible strength and longitivity, they have become an intergral part of the Freethinker society, swearing to defend and protect the nation in return for the acceptance and intergration of their race within human society.
Physiology
Freestian vampires possess significantly different internal and external biology to other humanoid species, including other 'true' vampires.
Combat Form
The 'Combat ' form of a Freestian Vampire is
Human Form
The 'Human' form of Freestian Vampires is the more common sight of these creatures within The Freethinkers, both more comfortable to the Vampires themselves to move around in and in terms of reducing shock to the humans around them. Whereas most Freethinkers are comfortable around a Vampire in full combat form, generally the same cannot be said of more nervous outsiders and visitors to the nation, for obvious reasons. The human form itself is infact a self-defense mechanism in origin, designed to allow the Freestian Vampire to intermingle with humans without attracting attention or attack. Although the attitude towards them has improved considerably over the ages, the human form represents a less aggressive, more approachable facade, and has become the 'natural' state of Freestian Vampires to exist in.
