Every Vampire has a true form. These are beast like, highly unattractive and incredibly violent. These forms are not optional for Vampires to shift into and are only accessible when they are present around Lycan, or sense one nearby. Vampire are strong enough without such a form to take down Human and so they are not able to access this form around humans. However if a Lycan is present with Human then of course, they may still access this. It was designed specifically for War and to give Vampire a good standing against a Lycan.
The male and females forms are both different.
The males are more brutish and can vary in colour from deep red, to navy blue. Their height will never exceed that of a Lycan which can extend up to 11ft, however Vampire tend to be a little smaller as they are faster on their feet. Male Vampire also are known to have tails, spikes and wings. Their wing span can go up to 12ft, with 46on either side, needed to carry such a big body. Their tails too can be incredibly long, however not every male has a tail. This is quite a rare thing.
Females true forms however have a slender body, and are no way as grotesque as the males, but are still voted against if possible. Their height is much smaller than a male and never exceed that of 7ft. Their skin dips into a deathly grey colour that can sometimes look lilac. Their feet, as well as the males, turn into claw like limbs, and their fingernails grow and sharpen. To add onto the sharp edge these forms have, their fangs grow and dip down to where they are forced to extend over the bottom lip, not allowing them to close their mouths without it. Females wings are not like the males and are attached along the skin of the arm, looking like it is all one. Their wing span equal that of a males and the female forms never have tails or spikes.
Vampires will never willingly want to go into this form and do whatever they can to avoid it, as their vanity is worth a lot to them, and showing off such a form is unpleasant. However, they will use this if necessary. Their speed and strength excels in a great quantity, making them the perfect opponent for a shifted Lycan.
