vampire history / 金曜日, 7月 10, 2009 @ 7/10/2009 12:44:00 午前
Well, this time that quote doesn't necessarily apply to vampires, but rather, the fans of the White Wolf Inc. Vampire games. This site is basically made for those fans, by one of those fans. Here I'm going to present to you the history of several of the different vampire clans, as it was written in the clanbooks (which are under copyright to White Wolf Inc. -- and please note I'm using the older books). I won't be giving you any of the game rules, character concepts, "cool" new powers for the vampires, merits, or flaws. If you want those things, go buy the books and support the game. I've always found "history" to be interesting, even the kind that isn't real. Let's get that straight for those of you that just surfed in and don't play the before mentioned role-playing games...
Vampire: the Dark Ages and Vampire: the Masquerade are just that. Games. I do not really think I am I vampire. I do not run around with fake fangs in and try to bite people or anything stupid like that, I do not only come out at night, and I do not drink blood. If you can't handle that concept, that this is not real, and is only a game, then I would advise you to leave now. People like that are what give the role-playing scene a bad name.
I do not take credit for writing any of the stories or histories on this page. In light of some recent confusion, I feel the need to make this even more obvious and clear -- I did not write the opening stories here and I did not write the clan histories. The works of art and storytelling in question are all under copyright to White Wolf Inc. I am not employed by White Wolf Incorporated, I am merely a fan of their games and work.
The material on this site was meant for mature minds and people capable of recognizing the difference between reality and fantasy. If you can't handle extreme violence, then you probably shouldn't be reading this either. After all, they are vampires, and not every vampire runs around in formal wear seducing everyone in sight -- some just take what they want, whenever they want, and that's the way it is. There are people like that in everyday life. However, this does not mean that I, or White Wolf Inc., encourage or support such degenerate or cruel behavior in anyone, and I will not take legal responsibility for any fool's misguided beliefs and actions. We all have free will and are capable of logical thought, and to say that I -- or White Wolf Inc. -- somehow have the power to control another human being is not only silly, but ignorant and immature. Stop pointing fingers and take responsibility for your actions.
Now, with all the legal concerns out of the way...
To view these pages as they were meant to be viewed, there are a few fonts you will need to download and install, those fonts include -- Wilhelm Klingspor, Vivaldi, DeRoos, Goudy Text Lombardic, MatrixTall, Arabian Normal, and Wellington. I guarantee you, the site will look much better if you take the time to download and install these fonts, if you don't already have them. Otherwise, some of the titles/headings, and quotes will look a little boring, and incredibly large to you.
Well, I think I've covered everything important... So onto the interesting stuff.
Immigrants from the Province in Eastern Europe that Montague Summers said has the Strongest Beliefs in Vampires Settled in Bohemia, Suffolk County.
The village of Bohemia, which is east of Amityville, was founded by Slavic peasants from Eastern Europe in the 19th century. The names of the early Slav families were Vavra, Kratchovil, Koula and Ruzicka. They developed a reputation of being fine carpenters. The part of Eastern Europe they were from was the province of Bohemia, in a village near Kadam. These peasant immigrants brought with them legends and tales of vampires which was added to the local Suffolk County folklore.
Montague Summers who wrote The Vampire in Europe said that the small province of Bohemia was the main center of Vampire activity. An article in the Prague Post called Bohemia, "Vampire Central." (Bohemian vampires rise again By Katka Fronk Prague Post 3/29/00 ) Summers said that Bohemia was worse for vampire legends than Transylvania. A quote from Summers in regard to activity in Bohemia: "...and when they pierced it with sharpened piles of white thorn it howled horribly, writhing and champing its blud red lips with long white teeth whilst streams of warm red blud spurted out in every direction." It is from Bohemia in Eastern Europe that Slavs came from to settle Bohemia, Long Island. They named their Suffolk County village after their homeland. Much of the local vampire legends come from the beliefs of these Slavic settlers.
The largest Vampire hunts ever in Europe was in Bohemia. Dead bodies that they thought were vampires had their head removed and then chained down in the grave. Many of these graves were found by archeologists.
According to college professor Giuseppe Maiello, who teaches in Bohemia, Europe, "From the beginning of Slavic settlements here in Bohemia - that means from the beginning of the 6th century - you can find a percentage of graves that you can recognize were considered "vampire" graves." and "Of course if in a small community there was a typical epidemic and people began to die, if the people started to die, in this case they were sure it was the action of one or more vampires." (From Radio Praha, Creatures of the Night 27-10-2004] By Jan Velinger http://www.radio.cz/en/article/59603)
According to an Katka Fronkin, "When Montague Summers wrote The Vampire in Europe in 1929, he took this account from a tiny village in Bohemia -- vampire central. According to Summers' research, you stand a greater chance of having the life sucked out of you here than in Transylvania."
