5
6	!!!Tropes shared by all Vampires:
7	* AchillesHeel: The sun, with less effectiveness as the vampire ages. Beheading, as is for all Immortals.

10	* AxCrazy: The Majority of the horde are this.
11	* CannotTellALie: Born vampires cannot tell a lie, when they try their throats burn and seize up.
12	* FurAgainstFang: The Horde are in a war with the Lykae, (it's all that [[FateWorseThanDeath torturing]] the Lykae King). The Forbearers however have an uneasy alliance through marriage.
13	** The Lykae Queen is both a half-vampire and the niece-in-law of Vampire directly under the Forbearer King. Plus the Lykae are allied with the Valkyrie and the Valkyrie are allied with the Forbearers. Well, the Forbearers are refusing to allow the Valkyries not to accept their alliance and the marriages make things harder.
14	* GlowingEyes: Those who haven't killed someone drinking them to death have black eyes with strong emotion. Those who have, have glowing red UhOhEyes.
15	* KissOfTheVampire: Some of the Brides have discovered this to their embarassment. [[HappilyEverAfter At]] [[PowerPerversionPotential first]]
16	* OurVampiresAreDifferent
17	* PowerOfLove: Meeting their Bride makes their heart's beat again which makes them much stronger.

20	* TeleportersAndTransporters: Vampires can trace (a different name for teleport) to places they remember.
21	* TheAgeless[=/=]TheUndead: Born vampires are ageless after maturity. Turned vampires are both ageless and undead.

23	* VampiresAreSexGods: It's a RomanceNovel series.
24	* WeakenedByTheLight: They burn in the sun and will die if they stay in it long enough. Exceptions are [[DaywalkingVampire Daywalking Vampires]], usually {{Non Human Humanoid Hybrid}}s.
