Blood lust

I didnt know where to place this topic so i put it here in the Chit Chat.

So i just realized in VA world the vamps don't really have Blood Lust. I kind of love that. It brings this humanity to the vamps. What do you guys think about it?

What about Blood Lust for Ripping Out Someone's Throats, Tasha?That kind of Blood-Lust would have been Bad-Assed, if it were done right!

Lol. I'm not talking about battle fighting blood lust. That's in the books and we see alot of that especially with Rose and the novices eager to fight. I'm more interested in the vampires having control over their desire and need for drinking blood. Maybe it's because they are born vampires opposed to the Strigoi who are turned - they certainly have bloodlust.

You also see Plenty of Kombat Blood-Lust in Cirque Du Freak or the actually better-done[at least Kombat-Wise!] Percy Jackson And The Olympians novels, by Darren Shan and Rick Riordan, respectively, with the former also showing Vampires acting like the Ancient Greeks[especially the Ancient Peloponnisian Greeks, the most obvious of them being the Ancient Spartans at their Prime Years, i might Add!!!]while the Latter Series actually show Modern-Day DemiGods[Wasn't it said that the likes of Leonidas was descended from Hercules, who's an Olympian Demigod, for that matter?Well, the Percy Jackson And The Olympians novels, believe it or not, have Demigods, as well as epic Kombat Scenes, in Aces and Spades!]

That didn't stop them from discouraging outrightly idiotic ideas, either, although it fails to discourage outdated means of fixing problems, for the most part, though.

Then again...the cast of the latter series got better on their own, and they didn't need the deaths of their relatives just to get better, for the most part[well, except for a few people in the cast, but even still...the few people in question would have gotten better on their own, eventually, and in realistic fashions, as well!]although despite the fact that the apparently unclear thinking on the Demigods' parts was rather justified, it could still bother a few people, though[They have the Symptom of A.D.H.D!]At least it's better means of justifying unclear thoughts than the lack of clear-thinking that was put on Rose[who may be a modern-day Spartan Lady, without realizing it, but unless the Teacher she called a Fascist Bastard was really a Strigoi, her fogged-up thoughts was uncalled for, that time!]

That said, i'm glad that Rose and Her Mum called each other out, in Frostbite, though.

Since i have not read those books I really don't understand. But with Rose- eh. There's more to the story and battle scene if only you will read the rest of the series... you haven't even read the big battle in the 3rd book which you really would get a kick out of!

But i like how Vampire academy world differs from all those other worlds especially the vampires are sooo different.

A.D.H.D stands for Attention-Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, Tasha.

I would, if i knew whether or not Vampire Academy being at least more tolerable than twilight will be worth saying a lot, because for now, some part of me doesn't feel like its worth saying much[although at least i find Rose and Company tolerable, though!]

That said, Vampire Academy, at least, managed to do a loads-better job at justifying their own Plot-Armor than twilight did, that much no person with enough common sense would dream of taking away from[something i am grateful for Lord_Loss_17 of Gaia Online for not doing, since i never planned on doing that, either!]but if only they could just go Hathaway-Punching the Living-Shit out of the Majority of the Royals so they can be the Bad-Asses that the Vampire Mountain Vampires are, if not better.Besides, having Modern-Day Vampiric Equivalents of the Ancient Spartans wouldn't mean shit, if the majority of these equivalents feel too much like the Ancient Spartans who were empty Shells of their former selves, instead of the Massive Bad-Asses that they were during the early Persian Wars, and even before that, for that matter.

There's a reason why the Spartans got pwned by the Macedonians and the Roman Empire, and it's mostly because they were just empty shells of their former glory!And from the looks of it, unless Rose and Company do succeed and save the Moroi Royals from themselves, the Moroi are bound to suffer the same fate as the Ancient Spartans who weren't at their Prime!

I know what ADHD thus the lol.

Vampire academy is far more then tolerable. It's nothing like twilight. VA doesn't suffer from plot issues. Its sound like u fear reading the series from being disappointed. I can assure you , so far, the series is well written and established with adequate plot development and character development. Yes the Royals are annoying and disappointing but that's a key factor to the revolution brewing which is discussed in the book and i believe will be followed through. They have to depict all that for change to be understood and welcome and meaningful.

I can see your point, but still...i never recalled The Vampire Mountain Vampires being stupid and being deliberately harmful to the members of a famous group or bloodline they met[If my modern-day Spartan of a Psychic Wizard somehow harmed someone he meant to help, with words, it was from him shooting himself at the foot, for trying to tell a legacy that's both good and bad, about both her family and his own, and he's the father of one of my party members, too!]

I mean...you're right about me being scared, but i forgot to ask when the Pre-Climax action starts getting up-to-par with the Potter-world, at least?[Cirque Du Freak and the P.J.A.T.O novels still have better Pre-Climax action than even the Potter-world, overall, though, if you remove the duels and Quidditch, that is!]

funny you should mention the Potter world because in my opinion those books , i love them dearly, but are some of the most anti-climactic books I have ever read. Im not one for comparing books but i thought breaking dawn was the most anti-climactic book i ever read but honestly it was deathly hallows that was the most anti-climactic novel i ever read.

You mean...remove the Massive Final Battle from Book 07, in which the entire cast gets together, and its anti-climatic?

Good news, i found a video with Dekkar as Christian! ^_^

maybe i'll give it a re-read before i pass too much judgment on it but the first time i read it i was so disappointed i didnt even re-read it. Which is rare for me I almost always re-read series especially before the movie comes out.

I just use caution and try not to overread the novel.

thats good but a little faith will take you a long way.

That's what i have The Last Olympian for, since that novel is actually better than The Deathly Hallows, in terms of epic battles and Pre-Climax action, really.

I'd tell you more, but then i'd have to kill you, after i risk spoiling that novel!

I like your theory that it's because they're born. I reckon that probably is the reason. I mean, the Vamps seem to like blood well enough, but since it's not their main source of food they're not always thinking about it. Then again, maybe it's just the people Rose comes in contact with. Oblivously there are those Vamps who don't mind drinking often upon dhampirs otherwise there wouldn't be Blood-Whores.
I think there'd be some sort of internal resistance that happens at an early stage when they're all taught eating too much of a human will turn you evil. They can't exactly give into their blood lust if they're going to lose who they are. For the most part I reckon the Moroi wouldn't want to do that, and for the Strigoi, well it's just assumed they're constantly giving into the blood lust. Other than Dimitri we're not really seeing enough of their lives to know if it's controlled or not.

That's why when it comes to the Princes, that Rose and Company are surrounded by idiots, Kim.
