American Vampire: Difference between revisions

* [[May-December Romance]]: Partially invoked, but mostly subverted with Book and his goddaughter Abilena. Abilena wanted to invoke this trope, but Book is creeped out by the idea. He even tells her he thinks of her as his own daughter. Still, {{spoiler|when he wants her to kill him, she agrees to do it if he will impregnate her first.}}

* [[Oral Fixation Fixation]]: Skinner Sweet loves peppermint sticks-- even as a vampire.

* [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: The new breed has powers that the older vampires lack. (So far, they have elongated finger-claws, rattlesnake fangs, and are powered by sunlight, only becoming vulnerable during the nights of the new moon.) There are also several other types of Vampires. Heck, they have an entire taxonomy for them:

** The types of vampires seen so far have been the European vampires (traditional vampires also known as Carpathian vampires, who believe themselves to be the dominant species), American vampires (jaws like rattle snakes and powered by the sun), Gaelic-Prime vampires, a shape-shifting type that is actually quite nice. Its other form is a pretty vicious looking creature with giant bat-like wings ( {{spoiler|Cashell's adoptive father was one before being killed by Sweet}} ), and the newest vampire that has been shown is the Japanese vampire, a creepy looking thing with giant fucking teeth and no eyes. Yes... their vampires are definitely different.
