Not a single bit of emotion. As with all animals [both real and imaginary] that work as a hive, they live purely for the propagation of their species.

And yes, you are correct in assuming acceptance.

I'm juat wondering before I can make another post, to the Vampyers have special scenes? (Like in books and movies) Like better hearing or has special "feeling" that something is coming?
Soki: but what did my face do to you before?
ICry: Lol what? "but whats on my face? Whore?"
Soki: No, that''s not what I said -Lhfao-

Well here's the short [and non educational] answer:

Yes.

And here's the long science bit.

In a Vampyr's hands the nerve endings are a lot closer to the skin, and about a hundred times more sensitive. Their odd brain structure allows them to process all the information they receive at the speed of roughly seven super-computers. Using this brain-speed they can differentiate between different sensations - often in the form of vibrations, much like with spiders - to find prey, water, hives, and anything else they want within a hundred yard radius. Speaking of their nervous system, i should point out that in and around their abdomen [around it meaning in the shoulders and thighs two inches down] they have little or no nerve endings. If they do have any they are simply a genetic accident waiting to be evolved away as they are essentially useless and dead. The nerve endings in their abdomens cannot send any kind of electrical signals, and thus, they cannot feel pain, heat, or even cold. Excluding their lower thighs, legs, forearms, hands, lower jaw, and front of the neck. In their head their skull is, along with the rest of their bone, highly dense, yet powerfully strong. Think steel wood times a trillion.
Now back to my original explanation. In terms of "feeling" things as you put it they can only do that literally with their hands, see above. And though they have vastly improved senses, they have their own bodily problems. They often have birth defects which allow some senses to be stronger and others totally destroyed. Some have been shown to have thicker skin than others, along with an odd amount of Heterochromia. This makes each of their eyes two separate colours entirely, if they had eye colours to begin with as many have blackened over pupils or have no irises.

Does that answer your nervous questions?

I'm sorry to be a pain here, but I think I'm in too many RPs, and this one looks the least like it would fit my RP style (i.e., it looks hard to do well) so I've got to drop it.

I understand, DC.

It's cool, just for the sake of being me can i get some general feedbacks. EYE-EE, what did you think of the rp, was it well thought out, is everything moving smoothly,?

Any criticism will help me as a RP-GM, and itll make me wanna hurt you :P Im kidding.

I too think im going to have to drop out, maybe only for a week two but i'll inform you of that and you can decide whether you still want me, im finishing off the RPs i've been in for a long while and not joining anymore - kind of weaning myself off the site, and the computer in general, because i hvae so much going on in my life right now - i will however do what you asked of DCLXVI and give you some feed back, but first i want to give you a good reason not to dislike me for dropping out.
4 of my very best friends live about 3 hours away from me, and about 3 years ago they formed a band - a band which are now getting popular enough for them to tour a lot, and i've begun follwing them on the tour - even staying in their van with them across dates, so i'm having little access to computers unless im on one of their laptops for the half hour they are onstage. Because i'mm getting to spend so much more time with them i have realised how much i need the four of them in my life, and so am in the mist of arranging to move closer to them, my partner is willing too as it means he will be closer to his sister - therefore, lifes pretty hectic right now - however they come off tour at the end of this month, and then ofcourse i'll be finding a house and moving everything and sorting all the rubbish out.
there, thats my reason.
now; your feedback;
i love the idea of Vampyr, they are amazingly deisgned and i think you should be proud to jhave come up with them and have such a scientific knowledge of your creation.
i think maybe the story line perhaps needs a little more fine tuning if i were you, but i love the idea of their evolution and life style. it really is just a time thing thats making me have to drop out.
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.

Well, i can see you're going through a logistical S**tstorm so i understand, i can magically kill your character off anyways. I love being a GM. -dances- teeheeheeheehee...wait. Im not the joker. (Nicholson's, not ledger's, though i can do a good Ledger Joker.) But the point is, it's all cool. And i appreciate you telling me in advance rather than just ducking off.

Also, thanks! Most of that stuff just came off of the top of my head, (Ya'll! [tenacious D song,]) And awesome! Any ideas you can submit would be brilliant. I'm running..1....2..3....maybe four RP's right now. And im working on another, i think my fast creativity comes from so many rp's coming to a premature death and my brain going into a fit of "MUST ROLEPLAY DAMNIT!".

You'll be missed! :P

Thanks, ideas? um, well i think maybe find a piont - maybe a few vampyr are meeting to see somethng happen to stars or the moon that only happens once every million years or so, but its recorded through their history - maybe through a mind thing were a new born vampyr has the knowledge of its parents before it, which would fit well with the fast evolution thing? - and the hunters have documentations about it too, that way they can be ambushed and it would make an interesting tiwst - though ofcourse not all vamyprs have to, or all hunters... i dunno...
it sounded good in my head shrugs
