How are vampires made?

A vampire must first give its victim the virus. The most common way to do this is biting the victim, although vampirism is a fluid-transmitted disease like AIDS, so there are other ways too such as sex. The victim must then drink vampire blood. - - -Answer- - There appears to be several ways to achieve the vampire state. Ancient lore has claimed such means as simply being cursed, or having a dog leap across an open grave, or to be buried by moon-light. Count Dracula became a vampire by 'Cursing God with all his heart and then drinking blood.' Such claims however needs be taken 'with a grain of salt' as the science of those times was not very rigorous and the accounts are imbued with much drama.The most credible way seems to be by being in very intimate contact with a vampire and becoming possess by that which enable a vampire to steal life-energy. (I'd like to be cautious about calling this a virus as the existence of such has not been established (the research has simply not been done) an really it gives an ability that seem to be much more that what a simple virus could produce.) You then have to die while you are in the 'feverish' state of this 'infection'. If you do not then your body can over-come the fever and give you immunity to any re-infection. (This appears to be true for most thralls of vampires. Count Dracula's Szgany minions had no fear of him. Were ferociously loyal in fact.) Now this may not be true for the entire range of vampires, may only be true for the most immediate blood-line. You may be able to be re-infected by distantly related vampires, although this has not be tested at all to my knowledge.Now becoming a vampire is rather an iffy proposition. Most vampires engaging in the process make sure that their 'victims' are abundantly 'infected' (lots of biting) and that their health is sufficiently weakened (lots of blood drained). But even then, even if you die in exactly the right way, the condition may not take. Not all vampire victims become vampires. And not all people who do become vampires become a good one either. Some barely achieve animation and are little more than zombies, some are paralyzed to some extend or only have portions of their bodies reanimated. Remember Count Orlock - very unattractive, stiff, hyper-sensitive to light, and a plague carrier (what Nosterafu means.) And your 'health' is to limited to what you had when you died. You can never do better no matter how much blood you drink.And becoming a vampire isn't for everybody. Some people, on discovering themselves a real vampire, have destroyed themselves.AnswerIn fiction there are several different ways to become a vampire. In the World of Darkness universe, for example, vampires are created by removing all of the victim's blood and replacing it with some of the parent vampire's, or "sire's" blood. In other fiction, such as the "vampire slasher" genre of movies from the mid-seventies and early eighties, all that was required was to be bitten. According to Bram Stoker's "Dracula", the title character became a vampire by "Cursing God with all his heart." In Anne Rice's stories the method of becoming a vampire is a little unclear. In Slavic and Chinese traditions, any corpse which was jumped over by an animal, particularly a dog or a cat, was feared to become one of the undead. A body with a wound which had not been treated with boiling water was also at risk. In Russian folklore, vampires were said to have once been witches or people who had rebelled against the Church while they were alive.ANSWERThe first answer is correct. None should become a vampire just for fun, health, love, or anyreason unless aprooved by,someone. But basily the blood given to you by the vampire changs the genes and DNA in your body mutates them and you become what just gave you blood. of corse changing all your bodys atributes is very painfull. i would say if you have wisdom and can keep your self controlled. Sure
