They could just eat vegetables and drink more whole milk, the bastards. That's how I get vitamin D without going outside.

The "vampires can't go in the sun" is such a boring trope. I hate Nosferatu for introducing it.
Dracula (not the OG vampire, but the prototype for modern vampires) could go into the sun just fine, it just suppressed their supernatural abilities. That's way more interesting
Carmilla just liked to get up late. Because she was up all night doing her vampire things.
And he was shimmering and sparkly?
🤣
But just in case anyone wants a serious answer: no, they're indistinguishable from a regular human on land. Can't swim tho (deep water kills them or something? I forget exactly).
Why does it have to be human blood? Why not cow blood or chicken blood?
They're vegan
I dont think human blood is vegan, neither is a lot of vitamin d supplements
Depends on how you get it. Consenting adults donating their own they can afford to lose? Vegan. Caged up toddlers that can't consent? Not vegan.
There's a simple solution to make everyone happy:
>99.7% corn syrup
>0.3% sunny
>May contain trace amounts of D
Just like me fr
You must've misread that, it says "100% Vitamin C" right on the packaging.
It's pure ascorbic acid.
If you cut the O in corn syrup in half you get 2 uppercase D’s, therefore, it’s actually 199.4% D. Checkmate
They should take vitamin D supplements like the rest of us shut-ins.
Dumbass vampires, I dont go out in the sun either, now we both don't have enough vitamin D.
There is milk in supermarkets enriched with Vitamin D. Good news for all vampires out their nd for their potential future victims
That's why you don't hear about vampire attacks anymore.
That's a very nice start for a book.
There's a supernatural masquerade, with vampires and witches and werewolves living among us, and all sorts of mundane regulations are just their influence on the government.
You think fluoride in our water supply is for our teeth? Bah! It's a vital mineral nutrient for the goblins and dwarves from the Underdark. They have a treaty with the surface governments to allow them to easily adjust.
Do you post your ficction somewhere on the fediverse? I would like to read what come next.
I wish I had the patience to write! I just read a lot of amateur stuff on ArchiveOfOurOwn and this seems like something I'd find there.
Since when can vampires consume food/drink
I believe that since at least the late 1800s with the prototype of the modern vampire, the novel Dracula described vampires eating solid food.
Granted it was mostly done by a crazy vampire, but he didn't seem the bare any I'll effects for the effort.
They seem okay with at least one animal fluid, maybe they can handle other animal fluids?
I wouldn't say no.

That's going to depend an awful lot on [which clan is local...](https://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Nosferatu_(VTM))
But if we're being honest, there are much worse fates than simply getting got by one of the ugly ones.
Thank you, i just discovered another fantasy world i had no idea it existed
To be fair I was specifically talking about Nazuna
You know vitamin D suppliments are a thing right?
I now realize that banishing garlic from my home is an important public service for the needy.
