Changes: Vampire

Revision as of 20:02, 15 October 2014

A vampire was a creature from Earth mythology, a creature who had previously been a living Human, and had returned from death to feast on the blood of others. As with many legends, parts of this lore described real traits of actual creatures, and the term was often invoked whenever lifeforms who instinctively and necessarily feed on others are encountered.

In 1953, a memo Herbert Rossoff had above his desk from Douglas Pabst read "No one would believe that a cheerleader could kill vampires". (DS9: "Far Beyond the Stars")

Joseph Sisko compared the two security officers, who performed blood screenings, to vampires and told his son to order them to sit down and take a menu or leave his restaurant. (DS9: "Homefront")

In 2372, an unnamed Starfleet security chief on Earth likened a security officer to a vampire, as she was to perform a blood screening on him. She reminded him that vampires only come out at night. (DS9: "Paradise Lost")

In the script of the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Prophet Motive", Quark's reaction to Rom showing him Zek's revised version of the Rules of Acquisition was described in the stage directions as being "like waving garlic in front of a vampire".
The Reman species was designed to be Nosferatu-like. The viceroy in particular is described in the script as having "a disturbing resemblance to the original Nosferatu." and vampiric.
