* Some experience with diplomacy between human and alien races.

* Good with the running

* Easily adapts to new environments and people

* Known in one dimension as Rose Tyler, Defender of the Earth

Think that covers most of the highlights.

[Rose is taking notes. She wants to be prepared.]

You had a vampire for a mate?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Conrad was a good pal...he's a grump, though.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

That a common trait in vampires?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, no. Yes.

I dunno. The vampires I've met are all sort of...emotionally wacked in their own ways. Conrad is just a fussbudget.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Guess being a vampire could do that to you.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, trust me, he was like that before he went vampire.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Oh. Well then, guess it's worth noting that they retain some of their personality from when they're human.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I think they retain all of their personalities...

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Really? Sorta always assumed somethin' else took over when a person became a vampire.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't know if it varies from person to person or anything. But Conrad is basically the same...just with fangs and a sun allergy now.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

So you haven't any experience with other vampires?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, I have. But I didn't know them when they were human.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Are they like Conrad?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, they have the same talents, but personality wise...no. They're very, very different.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Guess it's just like every other species in that way. Unless the others were a lot alike and Conrad was the exception.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

It's hard to say, to be honest...I think it's just a personality thing more than a species wide vampire thing.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

That makes sense. So the sleepin' in coffins bit?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Nope! Beds. But they gotta keep the shades drawn to prevent light coming in from outside. That's the big thing there- blocking out the sun.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

So the sunlight bit is true.

Garlic?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I don't think the garlic is true, mostly because they can't eat food anyway.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

So what other sorts of beasties do you run into here?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, vampires are the most common, oddly enough...and half of the stuff in the Underground, I have no idea how to define them...

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

What about the...magic? One girl said she owned a magic shop here.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, the magic is real. Trust me.

Wanna see some?

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Yes! [That's a very enthusiastic yes accompanied with a slight squeal.] Please. Where you at?
