Vampire!.!.!.ETC!. but i dont want anyone to say Vampire!.!.!.Edward Cullen!. because i cant stand Twilight!. and vampires are over rated!. So please help!. It can be a magical power or they can be something!. 10 points Thank you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I am currently writing a book and the character is a shapeshifter!. Along with being a shapeshifter he has strength and grace!. I haven't found out there are anything else special he can do since that's not really what the story is about, it's more about an imprinting!. I kind of got the idea of imprinting from Twilight, which is something that happens in the story!. BUT that's not really what influenced it, it was a different book that helped me develop it more!.Www@QuestionHome@Com I think it is quite alright to make the character a vampire!.!.!. there are different "types" of vampires!. I prefer the Anne Rice's series vampires!. Thru ought literature and culture, vampires have changed quite alot!. (Nosferatu dies from the sun, Lestat is burned by the sun but not killed, and now Edward Cullen just shimmers) So, you could even make your own rules as to powers, strenghts and weakness of the vampire!. Advice though, try not to make it as cutesy as Twilight!.!.!. that's just the current trend and there is nothing better than the classic vampire!. ;)Www@QuestionHome@Com You can make them one of these, or be original and make something up: Harpy troll (it's hardly ever done) dragon (turns to dragon, mostly in human form) mutant (just give him/her a couple powers or a tail or something) Genie Fairy changeling (I love them) mermaid (the tail can only appear with contact with water, if you'd like) ghost (a solid-looking ghost!) You can take any myth and twist it to make it fit your character!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com Ohmigosh, thank you SO much for not wanting to copy Twilight! I think that you should make the character an angel (like the person above me said) unless you want something dark, than make him a demon, nothing too specific!Www@QuestionHome@Com chupacabra :)Www@QuestionHome@Com like faeries, werewolves, witches,invisibility,flying, like that stuff need more help email kunkunWww@QuestionHome@Com Well, you could make the character an angel!.
