Multiple mysterious
sightings have been reported at various locations across Second Life!
One witness detailed a white faced tall, dark figure with red eyes
wondering around a seemingly abandoned cemetery. Another witness spoke of a beautiful pale
skinned woman he met in a bar who mesmerized him with the words she spoke. His memory of what happened next is very
vague and scrambled into bits and pieces as if he had been drugged. His wife reported his disappearance after not
coming from the bar. He remained missing for 5 days. He finally came stumbling in at 11 am on the
5th day with a strange injury to his neck resembling the bite of a
vampire. After trying to contact his
wife for a personal interview she replied with "no comment" and we
later learned that her husband disappeared again one week later and never
returned. Many SL residents speculate,
do vampires really exist? Journalist
LadyLoveDr decided to go deep into this dark world to uncover the truth and put
an end to all the speculation.
The journey started with
one simple question, 'If vampires do exist, where would I most likely find
one?' This question posed a more
complicated response than I imagined it would.
I finally came to the decision of visiting the bar where the woman
vampire who's words memorized the missing man had been. I became a regular at the bar after being there
nightly for 2 whole weeks. By then, I
was well known to some and pretty sure the others were under the impression I
was an alcoholic. I was finally
approached by a woman I had not recognized at the bar before. She sat down next to me and put her cold hand
on top of mine. I glanced over at her
and as our eyes met I heard her say "We're ready for you now." I sat there dumbfounded for a few moments. I knew exactly who, or should I say what, she
was. I needed to stand my ground. I
needed to be in control. "What
makes you think you're what I've been looking for?" I asked her.
"You've been frequenting this bar for 2 weeks
straight asking about us."
"How would you know?"
"I've been here watching you."
"No you haven't.
I would have noticed you before tonight."
"We're only noticed when we want to be."
She invited me back to
her place. I went willingly after making
it well known that I was a guest and not dinner. Once back in her domain I was able to obtain
an interview with her and was granted permission to share it with the world to
finally put an end to the famous question, 'Do vampires really exist?'
Interview with
Alejandra Rassir
LadyLoveDr: How would you define a vampire?
Alejandra Rassir: Vampires are creatures of the night who are cursed by God to drink blood in
order to remain immortal.
LadyLoveDr: You told me you're in a clan, what is its
purpose?
Alejandra Rassir: My clan, Kindred Rose Noire, have a reputation for honesty, kindness and
impeccable taste. Since the beginning of time our purpose has been to enforce
the ancient traditions and shape the destiny of the Kindred. Currently we have
759 clan members that consist of vampires, lycans, and human hybrids.
LadyLoveDr: Do vampires have any special powers?
Alejandra Rassir: We have the ability to transform into almost any animal: bats, cats, dogs
and smaller. Some can fly or levitate,
use hypnosis to mentally subdue their victims, and have the ability to
hypnotize. Most vampires are psychic,
can predict the immediate future, use telepathy to read minds , and move
objects by telekinesis. We have control
over physical pain, although any light weakens us and the sun causes terrible
burns. All injuries can be regenerated when we go dormant.
LadyLoveDr: Are you currently involved with anyone
romantically?
Alejandra Rassir: I have a great love that will last for centuries! His name is Antonio Pointe Du Lac and he is
also a vampire in the same clan.
LadyLoveDr: Have you encountered any vampire hunters
or vampire haters in the SL community?
Alejandra Rassir: Yes, I've encountered vampire hunters.
I have personally killed some of them and tasted their blood on my
lips. I do not fear them, nor does any
clan member of Rose Noire.
At the end of the
interview I was treated to a tour of the Rose Noire grounds. The architecture used to build their
community is phenomenal! There were
things that scared me yet intrigued me at the same time. Anyone is welcome to stop in and check it
out, although almost all their members speak Spanish. If you're an English speaking person like
myself, I highly recommend picking up a free translator HUD from the SL
MarketPlace. They are always welcoming
new members who want to take a walk on the dark side, be it vampire, lycan, or
human hybrid. So my fellow Second
Lifers, do vampires really exist? The
answer is quite simple. They always
have. Even for the speculators that will
put denial at the top of their list.
They can deny all they want, but when it comes down to the cold hard
truth, vampires are real. Walking among
us like normal citizens of Second Life.
They creep in the shadows hiding their real selves from the rest of the
world and preying on the weak in order to survive another decade. The next time you wake up in the morning and
can't quite remember what you did at the bar last night, check yourself for the
marks of a vampire because you might have just been someone's late night snack.
