Our morals are not the same as the humans. We aren't humans after all, we are Vampire. And yes there is a difference. Humans perceive themselves to be the top of the food chain and as such they feel that everything else should mimic them. Merely because we share similar bodies doesn't mean our behaviors, thoughts, feelings, codes of conduct, etc will be the same as theirs. So what then are Vampire morals? For many of us they are second nature, but for some of us, especially those still experiencing the Awakening and those that have been Turned, they simply aren't and therefore must be learned.



Some have a difficult time overcoming their learned human morals because they have been practicing them so long. But like the Awakening, all it takes is time and practice. Below we have taken the time to list most of the morals that should be held by any True Vampire.

 

- 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 someone/something, especially when it comes to feeding our thirst or defending ourselves.

 

- We feel no guilt when we feed because we are predators.

 

- Killing is acceptable. The council's stance on it is, if you feel you can get away with it, go for it. If you get caught, not a word about our kind should be spoken, or else you will be eliminated by any means necessary.

 

- Stupidity and weakness are not tolerated, especially with in our own kind. When examples of such do exist within 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.

 

- Respect must be shown to those that are: older, higher ranking, more powerful, more knowledgeable than yourself.

 

- We Vampire 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 choose 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.



- To judge someone 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 Vampire. Some take it very seriously, seeing it as a violation of loyalty, making it an unforgivable transgression.

 

- Sex. Can play a big part in some Covens, some vampires practise in BDSM and also have slaves and pets who are kept to feed from. Vampires are related through blood not DNA so sex between 'family members' is acceptable.

 

- 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.
