Sunlight burns vampires, but moonlight is made by the suns light as well, amirite?

Maybe it‘s an intensity thing
by Anonymous10 months ago
Depends on the mythology. In Vampire: The Masquerade, there actually are some vampires with such extreme sensitivity to sunlight that moonlight does burn then.

They should put up warning signs at night.

Reflected light is fine. The moonlight is a reflection of the sun light.
by Anonymous10 months ago
And with reflected light there's a dramatic decrease in UV light. I think. I'm pretty sure. It makes sense

My best impression of the "It's still real to me dammit!!" guy from wrestling..

And vampires can't see their reflection...maybe reflected light is absorbed by vampires?
by Anonymous10 months ago
But all the light we see is reflected by the stuff around us. That is how we are able to see stuff...
So technically all light is reflected

vampires would be blind if thats the case

Just like a laser pointer straight to the eyes will blind you, but looking at the wall with the dot doesn't
by Anonymous10 months ago
That…depends on the laser intensity too. With class IV, some lasers are powerful enough that even diffuse reflection can be a hazard. IR lasers are the really scary ones.
Most presentation style (for office use) laser pointers are class IIIA(3R) or less which are lower power.

If you want a scientific explanation it'd be the significant reduction in UV rays. Ever gotten sunburned at night? No? Yeah.
by Anonymous10 months ago
If you don't want a scientific explanation, then it's because it's magic and can work however it damn well pleases.

Yep, always interesting to see different takes on vampires. I tend to prefer the more realistic and less sexy versions myself.

It's a question if intensity of the sunlight, would they be ok behind tinted windows ?
by Anonymous10 months ago
Yup, I use that for one of my vampire characters. He loves sunlight, but cannot touch it. As such, the windows of his homes are coated with UV filtering glaze/film so he can enjoy the sunlight without harm

So there could be vampires walking among us during the day if they're wearing SPF 100 and good sunglasses.

I saw a documentary about this. Interesting watch, I think it was called "Blade"

Think of sunlight as medicine that empowers werewolves and vampires, but it's so intense it disables the werewolf from transforming and will burn a vampire into ash
The moon serves as a medium to dilute the sunlight's potency, allowing the monsters to use its power without consequences

moonlight is a reflection of the Suns light, which Vamps don't have a reflection. Hence why it's fine
by Anonymous10 months ago
Yes, but all of the nutrients are filtered out by the moon rocks which absorb it and store it as food for the lunar winter. Hence by the time it reaches any vampires on earth the only remaining light in low in magnesium and does not contain enough alkali material to react with the vampire's acidic skin.

Staring at the sun burns my eyes, staring at the moon does not.
Ya see how those aren't the same thing?

I also have been burned by sunlight but not moonlight

Sunlight doesn't hurt vampires.
It makes them sparkle.

Sunlight burns human skin, but moonlight is made by the suns light as well

Vampires are utterly unaffected by reflections of all kinds. Be it mirrors or moons.
by Anonymous10 months ago
Sure, but the part that's bad for vampires gets absorbed by the cheese before the rest of the light reflects back.

Dose makes the poiaon
by Anonymous10 months ago
Yes, but it's less concentrated.
by Anonymous10 months ago
Moonlight isn't direct sunlight, that probably would make a difference.
by Anonymous10 months ago
If you back over a vampire in your car because you were using your mirrors, who's fault is it?
by Anonymous10 months ago
But the magical moon rock affects the sunlight, transforming it into anti vampire light. Scientifically, it works out.
by Anonymous10 months ago
It's not sunlight is UV and moon filters it
by Anonymous10 months ago
Since it a reflection, it's probably following the same logic as a Bailisk stare.

You need water to live but 10litres in an hour can kill you, see where I'm going?

Moon is like a filter.

Moonlight is like shade.
It's not direct light.
by Anonymous10 months ago
Is that evidence enough for you that direct sunlight matters?
by Anonymous10 months ago
by that denomination, warewolvves should be overpowered in broad daylight
by Anonymous10 months ago
U ever got a sunburn at night? Dumbass take
by Anonymous10 months ago
Depends on the vampire. Dracula could walk around in broad daylight just fine.
by Anonymous10 months ago
Yeah but it bounces off the moon so it travels further, so mabye that's why they are fine?

The moon is commonly seen as an unholy symbol, so it may be corrupting the sunlight
by Anonymous10 months ago
The moon has its own cold light.. though the intensity of the sun hides it, you can test this on the next night with a bright moon that casts shadows. Put you hand into the shadow for 30 seconds then move it in to the moon light and feel the cold light on thr back of your hand..

Staring into a lightbulb can blind you but staring at the light from the lightbulb on the walls will not

Everything you see during the day is because of sunlight reflecting off surfaces.
