Meet Aimée, Aimée is a vampire, she's around 275 years old. She's married to Amir and they have a grand anniversary coming up, they'll be married for 250 years and they're still very much in love, Aimée asked Amir to turn her on their wedding night so they could be together forever... She loves gardening and grows the ingredients for the special herbal tea they drink so they can go out in the daylight.

I finally started playing Vampire: The Masquerade -- Bloodlines on Thursday. And... Of course I liked it. Unfortunately I'm limiting my playtime of it to streaming, so I can't let myself just drown in it and emerge after it's done.

Instead, I made a pic of the Tremere lady I named Sophia that I chose as my character! I made a pretty big mess of it, should have gone with more planning and less enthusiasm :D But here she is anyway. I happened to remember to record the process, so you can have that too.

Meet Amir, Amir is a vampire, he's very old, roughly 500 years, he can't remember exactly when he was born. He takes special herbal teas so he can be out in the daylight. His favourite colour is purple and he has his own style, he doesn't care that people find him odd or excentric.

In order to welcome @Photosaurus on Mastodon, I'm sharing our last collab last November with this pic I love so much ! Also 2 detail shots of the leather belt accessories (details in ALT description). The goal was to represent what could be a vampire crossing the ages and slowly adapting her wardrobe (we also did a victorian and modern era version but I prefer the medieval one^^). #fantasy #photomonday #vampire #portrait #leathercraft #costumedesign

In Central and Eastern Europe there were numerous reasons why people might become vampires, often through no fault of their own. These could include having red hair (like Cain and Judas apparently had), being born with a caul or being born with teeth. Eating a sheep that had been killed by a wolf or having an animal, especially a cat, walk on your grave could also place you among the undead. For this reason, pets were often kept indoors during funerals. Vampirism could result from being born a seventh child or being born to a mother who neglected to put salt on her food. Having blue eyes in areas where brown eyes were more common - or vice versa - also boosted your chances of becoming a bloodsucker. #folklore #mythology #weird #history #vampire #vampires #paranormal #gothic #death
