The Ultimate Chart of Popular Vampire Traits — And Where City of Eternals’ Vampires Fit In
IO9 has a great chart categorizing 50 of the most popular Vampire characters from TV, film, and literature by their defining traits: sun sensitivity, shape-shifting power, and so on. The Cullens, Blade, the Lost Boys, they’re all listed here — even Blacula and Bunnicula. Looking at these categories, here’s roughly how the Vampires of the City of Eternals are categorized:
Sun Sensitivity – Sometimes (without Sunset)
No Reflection – Yes
Shape-Shifting Ability – Yes
Coffin for a bed – Sometimes
Drinks Human blood – Sometimes
Sharp pointy fangs – Yes
I Got Soul – Maybe
Religious Anxiety – Maybe
Power of Flight – No

In this case, “Maybe” means you may be in for a surprise.
