- We are predatory in nature. We take what we need, sometimes
to the detriment of others. Though we may appear similar with
our prey, it is the spirit or soul that sets us apart.
- We have no qualms about harming some one/something, especially
when it comes to feeding our thirst or defending ourselves.
- We feel no guilt when we feed because we are predators.
- Stupidity and weakness are not tolerated, especially with in our
own kind. When examples of such do exist with in our own ranks
we will eliminate them by whatever means necessary.
- Loyalty is very important and taken very seriously. Those that
are disloyal are also eliminated by whatever means necessary.
- Males bow to the wishes of the females. The females are the
giver of life, the reason our kind continues upon this earth. Much
respect is owed to them. It is rank specific. (Royal males obey the
wishes of Royal females only. Pureblood males must obey Royal and
Pure females. Turn males must obey all female Vampyres. In a case
of conflict concerning the wishes of a Pure female [or Turned] and
a Royal, the Royal female's wishes would over-ride the Pure's/Turn's.)
- Respect must be shown to those that are: older, higher ranking,
more powerful, more knowledgeable than yourself.
- We Vampyres in nature are heartless to those that offend or
annoy us.
- Our emotions and feelings are usually kept hidden from those
around us. Only the most sensitive individuals can detect our moods
when we chose to hide them.
- We hate most things associated with the human world as most
human things restrict us and we hate being restrained in any fashion.
- We are loners by nature and when we do chose to be around others,
enjoy the company of a select few. (This for the most part applies to
Royals, though other ranks experience this as well, though not as
often.)
- We view everyone in the Community as family members and treat
them as such.
- Rape, abuse, etc of children is forbidden. Killing children is
forbidden. Rape in any form is also forbidden. Violating any of these
is punishable by a painful and excruciating death.
- Drug abuse is unacceptable. Note that we say abuse and not
use. Using them is fine; except when employed to manipulate
someone to get what you want, like blood, sex, money, etc.
- To judge some one is to be judged. We do make judgments of
others but that is reserved for when individuals make absolute fools of
themselves.
- Adultery. This is different from clan to clan. To some clans it
matters not as sex is no big thing to a Vampyre. Some take it very
seriously, seeing it as a violation of loyalty, making it an unforgiveable
transgression.
- Generally as a rule we don't discriminate. There are exceptions
of course, such as humans, specifically the stupid individuals,
and there are certain clans that loathe each other greatly. Race plays
no part in discrimination.
