About Vropiro



My name is Vropiro, I'm 30 years old and I live in Pennsylvania. I am the assistant administrator for the Vampire Church, I help run the online programs and am a moderator for the Vampire Church Elist forums, I also run an offline office on the eastcoast in the United States. I have known of my Vampirism for many years but could never explain or understand what was going on with me. I have done lots of research on Vampirism and had visited the Vampire Church daily for over a year to read and learn everything that I could. The information that I had gathered and learned over that time lead me to my awakening, and a short time after that I had become a member of the Vampire Church which in turn had opened me to a position on the Vampire Church council, and it is a position I take very seriously. In conclusion, I will do whatever I can to stop the misconceptions about Vampires and Vampirism, people need to know and understand what it really is and not what it is thought to be.

Question: Do you feel that revealing and teaching about your vampirism online is easier than doing so in the offline world? In your experience, is it difficult to find others near you who are afflicted with vampirism?

Greetings..

I think it is much easier online than offline being that the people online come looking for help and an explanation, they look for guidance and answers with an open mind and try to understand what is going on within them. Trying to work offline is a harder task I think because when you try to explain Vampirism to someone or to a group of people you always have someone else around who is completely immature about it and just don't want to let go of the mythological aspect of things. I have done some outreach within my community and as always I have to deal with people who just plain don't want to understand but that's their choice. I am here to help and give understanding,not to argue over ridiculous misconceptions.

As far as finding others that are near me having to deal with this condition, it is very hard. I have as of yet to come across someone that is Vampire, there are lots of people that try to play the part but as far as having the actual condition, I don't believe I have come across anyone. There have been others that have listened to me talk and say "well I believe I am a Vampire" but some people just look at things that aren't understood and then turn it into something that they want to be. Why someone would want to have the Vampiric condition is beyond me but I do not wish this upon anyone.

In Darkness,
Vropiro
