Dhampir

History
Dhampirs were considers myths to even some of the oldest of vampires. In every story told about them they are called demon children and speak of how only horrors can follow the birth of a dhampir.

Abilities
Dhampirs share many qualities with their fathers, vampires. They have extreme strength, speed, and sense of smell. While they are less than a full vampire, they are still quite powerful. Female dhampirs do not contain venom that allows for a vampire to be made but their teeth are still strong enough to cut into flesh and vampire skin easily. Renesmee is the first dhampir to have a vampiric gift.

Immortality
For the first 7 years of a dhampirs life they age rapidly, both mentally and physically. By the time they reach about 7 years old they have reached their full growth physically and stop aging. From then on out they show signs of being immortals like their fathers.

Vampire VS. Dhampirs
Dhampir are actually 3/4 vampire and 1/4 human, simply because the vampire genes are so much stronger than the human that the child ends up more vampire than human. The vampire side lends them strength, speed, immortality, and blood lust, but their human side tampers those. It is seen as a downside with strength and speed because their human parts make them slower and weaker, but when it comes to their thrist they have the better deal. Their blood lust is extremely low if not nonexsistent. While a dhampir needs blood to survive they are able to eat normal food and drinks and they do not need as much blood as a full vampire.
