<p>Through my research and study, investigations, witness accounts, and interviews conducted, I have determined these things to be mostly true for vampires. </p><p>Let it be known that I have only encountered a vampire one time in my life, and the fear of it controlled me. If not for my holy symbol and my faith in Celeborn, I fear that may have been the end of me. Therefore, I can conclude with relative certainty that a holy symbol presented by a person of faith can, at least for a time, cause a vampire to recoil and perhaps even depart.</p><p>These weaknesses may, or may not, be true for all types of vampires, for which there are at least several known to include the infamous Nosferatu and the Moroi.</p><h3><strong>I present the Weaknesses of Vampires:</strong></h3><p>1. Vampires cannot tolerate the strong odor of garlic and will not enter an area laced with it. This is a common defense used by the people of Ravengro at their homes. I too have used this on occasion.</p><p>2. Vampires seem to recoil at the presence of a holy symbol presented by a person of faith (the faith must be strong, ie. not flippantly presented by someone who heard they don't like crosses).</p><p>3. Vampires recoil from mirrors and try to avoid them.</p><p>4. Vampires, at least most of them, seem unable to enter a home or dwelling unless invited in by someone with authority to do so.</p><p> </p><h3><strong>Killing a Vampire</strong></h3><p>Killing a vampire is a most difficult challenge. If defeated, a vampire seems to turn to mist rather than be outright killed. They heal at a tremendously fast rate, potentially in a day or two. </p><p>Vampires seem to be especially vulnerable to sunlight, and this is a potential method of killing one, although I have no first-hand accounts to verify.</p><p>I have heard rumors that running water may also kill a vampire, though I am interested in how a person might convince a vampire to bathe.</p><p>The tried and true method of killing a vampire is none other than driving a stake through it's heart. Once dead, the vampire should be destroyed completely by severing it's head, anointing it with holy water, and then I would suggest burning it or fully exposing it to sunlight when the opportunity arises.</p><p> </p>
