man, remember Buffy vs Dracula?

loki-zen

also, interesting to me how - while of course the ultimate inspiration for both is Bram Stoker’s Dracula, alongside/which itself draws on extant vampire lore - how precisely the iconic vampire abilities of the various clans in Vampire: the Requiem match the demonstrated abilities of Dracula-as-portrayed-in-Buffy.

Buffy!Drac turns into a bat, for instance. And a wolf. His hypnotic abilities seem connected to eye contact in ways that are less explicit elsewhere. His bite is explicitly depicted as pleasurable, which is at least not consistent for Buffy vamps, and it seems to have some of the mild amnesiac properties of Requiem’s Kiss as well. His blood is powerful in more varied ways (Buffy rarely discusses the consumption of the blood of vampires, in general). Mist Form is OP. etc.
