    Not all vampires can regenerate (as quickly or at all) in the Blade universe. Quinn, aka mr. Crispy, was a special case. The vampire who turned him belonged to a pure blood House. I cant remember which house, but supposedly the members of this specific blood line could only be killed by decapitation. Which is why we hear from Blade and Quinn about having previous encounters, and Quinn surviving everything. Blade lore is actually quite deep if you know where to look :)

      In the blade universe, vampires are looked at as a Biological species, instead of the more common supernatural trope. As a result, religious items and holy water dont affect them. The virus is transferred via saliva in most cases, but is not the most effective means. Vampire blood also carries the virus, and injecting it is far more reliable. Infected humans have, at most, a three day incubation period before becoming a vampire, where symptoms like: aversion to sunlight, and unquenchable thirst become increasingly worse. If the infected human is killed during this period, they will likely still revive as a vampire, unless beheaded or staked through the heart, or in some cases both. Those improperly disposed of will revive at drastically accelerated rate of hours instead of days.

      On the subject of Tribes that belong to House Erebus
      1. Ashe- They seem to be extremely sensitive to the things normally used to combat vampires, so garlic, silver and sunlight has a greater effect on them. (Kinda.. got the shaft in regards to powers.)
      2. Cianceto- from Mexico, and raised from the dead by the same witches who supposedly gave Montezuma his immense power. A warrior caste, they have the strength of ten men and are able to regenerate lost limbs rather quickly.
      3. Dragonetti- a tribe of influential sorcerers dating back to pre-medieval times, who were reincarnated and returned to Europe. They consider themselves to be the first pure bred vampires. (The wiki doesn't list any powers for them, so I assume the word sorcerer simply means that they have a slightly better than average vampiric "allure" to humans?)
      4. Faustinas- believed to have gained their pure blood status by practicing Santeria (a type of Voodoo). Along with physical strength, they can also control minds, matter and the elements of the world. Faustinas can only be terminated with a silver stake through the heart AND decapitation or they will be reborn with more power than they possessed before. (So, to be safe.. treat every vampire as if it's from this tribe specifically.)
      5. Kobejitsu- proficient assassins known as Death Ninjas. Strong and agile, possessing unusual stamina. They are identified by their red, bulging eyes. They are the only members of the House of Erebus who do not cast a shadow. (Vampiric assassins. As humans, we can barely tell when a regular ass vampire is stalking us. I assume these guys are used in political corruption, within their own world)
      6. Lemure- of Rome, were originally evil spirits that inhabited corpses and turned the dead into immortal night stalkers. Known for their ability to seduce their prey, they are beautiful denizens of the dark and frequent underground raves and goth clubs. (Also kinda got the shaft in the powers department.. but hey, Pretty Privilege can get you anything you want I guess)
      To be continued)

    I always assumed Eli Damaskinos was twisted due to his experiments or some personal weakness, like he tried to change his body but failed. This is all head canon, but it doesn't make sense for his body to be so weak, his blood a different color, and his skin so translucent while all other vampires we see remain mostly ageless. He's also apparently at least 1000 years old, not just a few hundred years old.

    By the way blade being a half vampire actually comes from this movie. Originally in marvel comics his mom was bitten and died while pregnant with him and he basically developed a vampire antibodies which made him immune to vampires powers and bites. They didn't make way to half vampire in the comics until years later after this movie came out. Also the modern look of blade is also based on this movie because originally he had an afro.

    • @F76CC

      Actually the movie Blade is based off of the Blade from the animated Spiderman series from the early 90s. That was when Blade was first shown as having all the vampire powers with none of the weaknesses due to being half vampire. Even Whistler is from the Spiderman animated series and wasn't in any of the comics. The flattop hair and leather was also a thing years before the movie and the Blade from the spiderman animated series also had a flattop and leather outfit.

    I really think I'm going to have to argue with you about Drake's true form being the red-skinned demon creature. You said he was very first vampire ever turned by LaMagra meaning he would have looked like a human before being turned / created. I think there's either two possibilities with the giant Redskin demon form. One of them being he eventually evolved after a Time into that form. The other which I do think is more likely, he had the ability to shapeshift and thought of a very terrifying form to terrorize the local villagers. And I'm sorry but if I can shape shift into a demon creature with armored red skin spikes and horns when I have to fight, I'm going to do it.

    • @NottherealLucifer
      @NottherealLucifer Рік тому +6

      "True form" doesn't mean the first form you ever had. If you're using shapeshifting to look human then whatever you look like without that shapeshifting is your true form. Even if he slowly took that form that's what he looks like when he's not hiding his appearance.

      @Scimon_Scisick 2 роки тому +8

      Blade was born a human/vampire hybrid, the enzymes in Blade's blood made him immune to normal vampire bites, uniquely attuned to sensing the supernatural and resistant to aging. Since being bitten by Morbius, Blade has gained many of the traditional powers of the vampire without developing their weaknesses. He has superhuman strength, senses, and stamina, plus an accelerated healing factor.

    I believe that Reapers were basically what the ancient Vampires were like, but less pure than Dagon. Elder from Blade 2 was just a very old weakened Reaper who wanted to die finally but wanted to make sure the vampire race survived strong. Could he do the same jaw split that the Reapers he created could? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe when they were trying to create pure vampiric strain it became even more pure than that of the elder. the elder was old enough to control his hunger.. or was he? Taking full blood baths seems pretty gluttonous.

      These are ghouls, as states above. Its what happens on occasion when a human, infected with the vampire virus, is killed (improperly) before the transformation is complete. It doesn't always happen. But, when it does, it creates a ghoul: a vampire that has no other desire but to feed. It not only drinks blood, but consumes flesh and organs aswell. No matter how much it eats, it continues to decay and rot presumably until it is immobilized and dies of starvation.

      :l he did in fact regrow his hand. There is a Tribe (or 2) of vampires in blade lore that have this ability.
      Among the regular boosts vampires get simply from the base virus. The curve balls come in when you factor what clan the vampire who turned you.. you could be very unlucky and your sire be from Ashe- which makes you even more susceptible to garlic, sunlight and silver than your brethren.
      Or you could get lucky like Quinn and your sire be from Cianteto- the strength of ten men and the ability to regenerate lost limbs.
      There are other cool abilities and tons of really crappy drawbacks depending on who turned you xD
      Trip to france, get bitten? Whelp, hope you like shedding your skin at night to become a sentient ball of fire.
      Japan? You have bulging red eyes, but you are fast, nimble and have the stamina of thoroughbred stallion. Oh, and for some reason your body doesnt cast a shadow.
      Greece? You get the physique and beauty of a god and basically anyone who looks at you will be instantly seduced.
      Brazil? You basically get the vampire equivalent of a zenkai boost. If you are killed incorrectly, you revive stronger than before. You can brainwash people, manipulate matter and elements..

It's hard to say if he would have been able to react in time without the shattering glass tipping him off and the velocity of the arrow slowed by impact with the glass. Honestly, it seems like a pretty foolish tactic to post up behind a pane of glass to fire the arrow.

    I think that Frost’s ascension was flawed because he also didn’t absorb Blade’s vampire spirit.
    If you pay attention you’ll see that Blade was able to avoid being struck by the same lightning that hit the other pure blooded vampire elders. Since Blade is born a vampire he in turn is a pure blood of a sort, albeit a new strain.
    So, when Frost gains the powers the blood god has he doesn’t obtain the full measure of it that he would have had Blade still been inside the stone chamber he was placed inside of when the energy passed through the assembly of pure bloods.
