I like this very much as a concept for a series.<br /><br />I've seen the ideas mentioned in this post updated, but not with any great change that I remember, or even any dealing with these issues.<br /><br />Re the burning I'd imagine the idea is supposed to reflect in some way a drying out over the centuries, and if so, I'd say the regrowing is out. Of course, it would depend on the magical context, the fictional world the vampire exists in.<br /><br />The vulnerability to sunlight could be seen as an aspect of the same maybe, but also the idea of the vampire's power being drawn from the night. As a mythical or fairy tale creature, it's an extension of our thinking, and if the darkness brings fears that weaken us, so the sunlight has the power to banish. Destruction by sunlight is extreme perhaps.<br /><br />Again, good concept.Porkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00604351052444947490noreply@blogger.com
