Red Court/The Eebs question...

<< < (3/5) > >>

morriswalters:
We have three types of vamps in the books that we've seen.  Red, White and Black.  Whites breed normally. Blacks kill to create.  The Reds seem to fall somewhere in between.  JB seems to treat it like a virus, when you get bitten but not killed you're either turned or end up like Susan. Is my understanding faulty?

Not to mention the whole point the Red's were using the Bloodline Curse was that the curse was gonna jump straight from Harry to Eb.

Bad Alias:
@morriswalters: They do feed repeatedly on people. Justine had puncture marks from being fed on when she was crazy in Bianca's basement with Harry. I've always assumed them to be bite marks.

The mechanics of how the Reds turn people has always been vague. From Grave Peril:

So I'm not sure if this is correct:

I don't know if it was ever really established whether only the nobles being allowed to turn new rampires was a biological limit, or a political one. Were they purposely limiting their population to keep the King's power from being spread between too many descendants, or was it a matter like the blamps where newbies trying to turn more vamps would result in mindlessly feral progeny?

So did Harry.  So a nibble isn't sufficient.  And while reading this, I found a crossover with another thread.  Harry dies and creates a ghost of himself,  So Vadderung should have said that Harry came back from death twice. :)
