| Vampires - Spoiler:
- Vampires are extremely strong - even the new dead are capable of lifting cars.
- They are FAR faster than any human.
- Vampires' senses of hearing and smell are also very strong.
- Vampires are able to appear human only after years of practice. Newly made vampires have difficulty smiling without showing their fangs.
- Vampires have the ability to remain completely still, expressionless, and silent. New vampires learn this as they age, while older vampires use this often for effect.
- When a human is bitten their age/appearance when they were bitten remains for eternity.
- Empathy: Vampires refer to being able to "smell" emotions such as fear and lust, and some vampires are able to detect lies.
- Vampire's Bite: A vampire's bite can (but apparently does not always) provide the vampire with mental control over the victim
- Rolling: Vampires can "roll" victims by making eye contact. "Rolling" typically refers to a temporary hypnotic state that vampires can use to conceal their movements (giving them the illusion of instantaneous movement), to give commands to the victim, or to reduce the pain of a vampire's bite. Victims with supernatural power, such as other vampires, animators, human servants, and lycanthropes, display varying amounts of resistance to this technique, but most people avoid the technique by not looking vampires directly in the eyes.
Lycanthropes - Spoiler:
- All lycanthropes are extremely fast, strong, and resistant to damage. Lycanthropes' strength appears to depend somewhat on their actual size and somewhat on their level of supernatural power.
- Lycanthropes can recover from almost any wound other than that caused by silver weapons.
- Lycanthropes have extremely acute senses, even in human form. Their senses are good enough to smell emotions or even hear heart beats.
- Lycanthropes are effectively allergic to silver and feel physical pain from even skin contact, although some seem to enjoy silver jewelry.
- Lycanthropes appear able to command animals of their species. (For example, wererats can command rats).
