A vampire is a supernatural creature that feeds on blood. They are created when a vampire bites a human, and though they are stronger than humans, they have a notable weakness to the sun and cannot enter a building without being invited inside.
Vampires are near immortal beings, but they are weak to a number of things such as being staked, garlic, crosses, being beheaded, and the sun. Most vampires die young from these things through misadventure or politics. In the rare case that a vampire does not die young, they eventually outgrow many of these weaknesses.[1] It is also possible for a vampire to die of old age, but it is extremely rare for one to live that long. The oldest recorded vampire is Lucy Ann, who lives to be twelve thousand years old.[2]
