Reconstructing Friendly Vampires (And Dhampyrs).

• Animal control.
• Charisma.
• Glamour.
• Retractable nails/clavs and fangs...

Those make sense, what might a dhampyr pregnancy be like?

Well, first of all, it comes with an free Caesarean section...

The skin on the belly would not have the long period it normally has to stretch...

The pregnancy is fast, so wouldn't the skin on mother's belly be even more stretched, bruised and such compared to an normal one, it might even get a vew small wounds where it breakes...

To steal from The VampireVannabes, force the mother to hold a very special liquid diet...

Well, all babies kick mommy in the stomach. Well, these brats are a [[Understatement bit]] stronger than normal...

Lactating blood or blood-mixed milk?

Blood mixed milk.

Anything more you need help with?

Would it make sense to give the mother at least some temporary vampiric powers during pregnancy, I mean so she can get all the nutrients nescissary for her babies easier...

A human (Well Member/Twister, vampires can only make dhampyrs with them) woman pregnant with a dhampyr will be turned from the inside by the baby.

How do vampire turning work? Who kan turn who and how?

Vampires are made by a human injesting a vamp's blood. A vampire will be about half as strong staight out the gate as it's creator. Dhampyr turned vampires are much stronger and are affected less by vampiric banes, but are prone to instability (as in they sort of switch between human and vampire a bit) for their first year.

What did they turn mommy into?

Mummy was already a vampire.

Ah, I understood it as a classical case of vampire dad, human mother... Wasn't it how you planned it to begin with?

I always had the mother as the vampire. Also Tabitha can see the "rules" behind everything and Ezekiel can implant ideas in people's.

Makes more sense now how she survived childbirth...

What do you think the kids use their powers for?

Stuff like impressing crushes, trying to get their family more "human", track down their dad, general stuff. Also Tabby's made a weather machine powered by love.

Just got this thought. Young kids often fall in "love" with teenagers or adults. A childish crush like this is cute...

...but not if the child in question can mind-controll the target to "love" the child in return...

This could cause a lot of problems...

And what might the gestation be like for human women? Also one of Tabby and Zeke's "uncles" brings home a pregnant human (the kid's his) and she gives birth, so the twins now have little sibling anxiety directed at a kid who's going to be their age very fast.

No idea. Like for vampires, but with a much larger risk of death?

They would propably be jealous of having to share their attention, but hey, a new play mate, and one of their own kind...

How long time would the it take for the kid to reach about the same age as them? (I mean all three kids at the same age at same time.)

About nine months.

They are now how old?

How old will they be then?

How fast do they age?

They are at story's start nine months old, when the baby's born they are about fourteen months old. They'll take about a hundred years to be grown.

How old do they appear?

Five.

Isn't averting Immortality Begins at Twenty going to raise suspicion?

They move around a lot, and they are usaully home schooled, they only went to school (where they met their little friends and turned them) because they were lonely.
