Info
There are vampires and there are psychic vampires. One is cool. One is kind of a pain in the ass and not nearly as sexy and I think you can guess which is which. Vampires roam the night, drink blood, sleep in coffins and dress smart as hell. You probably wouldn’t even mind being bitten by them because damn. The others… Well.
You ever meet someone who’s a real bummer to be around? Maybe this person is already in your life and just being in their presence is a chore. Every encounter is a drain on your entire being. They make you tired, they make you feel weak or sick. Just hanging out with this person requires a nap and a shot of B12 when you’re out of there. That walking bummer is a psychic vampire and they may or may not even know it. The ones who don’t know, well, you can’t exactly hold them accountable because they honestly have no idea that they’re a real drain on your will to live. It’d be nice if they could gain an idea of how much they suck to be around and take the measures to change that, but the folks who realize that they’re psychic vampires and go around like they’re real vampires, as though they’re these tragic romance characters, well, those folks can shut the fuck up. They are one hundred percent nefarious, my friends. Who would knowingly do such a thing to other people?
Psychic vampires are a whole thing and for the record, Vampire: The Masquerade is a dope role playing game and you should definitely take it for a spin.
