Why do people think they are a psi-vampire and a lion therian?

Question

Jonathan: Yes. So why would they say they're a psychic vampire?

I guess they're just being silly. For some reason, they won't answer my question themselves.

Answer 1

Some people think that psychics are real, vampires are real, and what-not. I refer to them as "Special".

Answer 2

Because most of those people are vampire wanna-be's But they don't was to be associated with blood letting....  So this way they can consider themselves to be a vampire but vampires with a cool title...........

Answer 3

Do you mean Leon Theremin?

Cos I'm Leon Theremin. I look like this:

If anyone else tells you they are Leon Theremin they are lying. Ok? You got that?

Answer 4

Because they read a book or saw a movie and said wouldn't it be neat to be a psi-vampire ect....

Answer 5

Because some people are actually vampires or therians. Yes there are many posers but there are also those who are real psi vampires, sang vampires or therians. I am a sang/psi hybrid vampire and I do know how hard it is to find another without just finding posers.

Answer 6

Therian means they change into that creature, it is more a method of characterization on that one (like which animal are you most like). As for the Vampires, a psi-vampire is supposed to feed off the psychic energy of another. There was a man who find a way to photograph the aura they feed off of (normal people had a blue/white aura, and vampires had a orange/red/yellow aura the edges of which had hooks and after touching the vampires aura would grow as the other person's gets thinner) unfortunately since there was no scientific proof as to what exactly they were photographing so it went undocumented. Also, check some vampire sites, they should fill you in on some vampyre lingo (such as the alternate spellings), if you aren't as ignorantly insulting as you were in your other question. I don't know anything about your faith, but vampires follow the Black Veil, which is probably another thing you should look into if you want to understand them (it is just a short list of rules so take a look!)

Answer 7

Therianthropy is a very real and very misunderstood condition.  Therians do not “think” they are an animal, we are human and we are completely sane and aware of our humanity.  We have the spirits, or souls of an animal and sometimes of more than one animal inside us.  Our human mind coexists with our animal selves.  I am an arctic wolf and housecat therian.  I do not think I am a werewolf.  I cannot turn into a wolf.  I have what we call shifts.  

My most frequent wolf shifts are astral, dream and phantom shifts.  But there are many more types of shifts.  When I have an astral shift, my aura will take the form of the wolf.  Normal people will react to astral shifts subconsciously.   For example, there have been times I have had astral shifts in public and my aura extends both in front of me and behind me more than usual, and normal people will not walk close to me.  They will subconsciously move to the side to let me pass before they need to, to compensate for my wolf aura.  I have also seen people react to otherkin that have wings, such as angels, demons, dragons and other winged otherkin having aura or phantom shifts,  in much the same way.  They will walk around the otherkin’s wings.  Dream shifts are when we dream of our animal’s life.  I believe that both my wolf and cat were once alive and when they sleep they dream.  My dream shifts are different than normal dreams in a few ways.  Normal dreams tend to be a mixture of things that happen during the day and memories that are blended into fantasy.  Dream shifts are often like watching a movie from the animal’s eyes.  It is constant.  If I am chasing an elk, it does not randomly cut to being in a den with cubs.  It is a memory of the hunt, then feeding on the animal.  Phantom shifts are like phantom limbs.  There are times when I can feel wolf parts.  I mostly feel a tail and ears.  Sometimes I can feel phantom fur.  

My cat shifts are a bit different.  My cat is more blended with my normal self, so I have quite a few catlike characteristics.  My cat shifts are usually mental shifts, in which the cat sort of takes over. I tend to run faster, jump higher and hear better.  I will stalk things.  When I am at home, my mental shifts seem to consist of kneading my bed and napping.  I still able to talk normally during these shifts, and most of the changes seem to be behavioral.  During my cat mental shifts, my pet cats react differently to me.  

Therianthropy has a rich history in ancient cultures.  It is just not called the same thing.  You will often have to read between the lines to see it.  Many Native Americans tribes tell of animal spirits guiding and helping their warriors and sometimes they say that a certain individual has the spirit of the hawk, or of the bear.  Many shamans of ancient religions were animal like when out of trances and even in Europe many people who had dog or wolf like characteristics were thought to be werewolves.  It is easy to see therianthropy in history if you dig deep enough.

Answer 8

dude do you know what a psi-vampire is it's a vampire who has pshycic abilities

Answer 9

Probably because they have a dull life and an overactive imagination.

Answer 10

Because some people genuinely are!

Naturally they're not the primal hunters that the word has forever been associated with, thanks to Stoker and Rice. They're also not the refined noblemen that comes to mind either.

They are people who show many many unusual symptoms not present in humans. I'm guessing you already know most of them. Some may go as far as alluding to anemia, though that can't explain all of them. The only name that captures the true nature of their condition is vampire.

In short, they say they are, because they are. Do a bit more research, meet a few and talk to them yourself, you might renounce your ideas that it's a mass delusion and realize exactly how many of us are out there.
