Night-Gaunt49 said, @DavidHuieGreen“Physically the vampire is a supernatural predator who has superior abilities to get their prey. He/she would have to be stronger, faster etc to do so if you follow the evolution of predators that is.”.Supernatural is not part of evolution but even if it were, evolution has never taken a single path, certainly not toward strength or speed. If anything, it favors stealth and freedom of movement. You don’t have to outrun humans to capture and kill them. Snakes are slower than birds or deer but eat both of them here in Florida (along with alligators and probably a small child every now and then)..Being helpless in sunlight is definitely not a superpredator characteristic, too easy to kill the predator when helpless.

“Vampires didn’t have much trouble with sunlight until a movie came out called “Nosferatu” where it happened.”.Another mark against them when a moviemaker can introduce weaknesses and a vampire is unable to withstand him..
“You can still be a super predator even if it is only at night.”.As long as I don’t mind being common preyduring every day.

Forgive her, Gary, she was drunk at the time (times?).

A vampire that needs humans to survive is no stronger than the rest of us.

Gary, you are pathetic. Are you looking for pity? You’ll get none from Leopold, nor from me….
