Wow, why would anyone want to become a vampire? It's a disease- both for the person it afflicts and the people around them. confused If I were in your place I'd try asking her why she's interested, and start the debunking there. Try rephrasing your information using different words? She understands the terms, I'm sure, but she just doesn't grasp how they're related. If you line them up for her to see from many angles, perhaps it will sink in. Btw- from what I've read about the condition, vampirism doesn't always follow a family line genetically- there is a medical condition which resembles "vampirism," but that's not the only kind of vampirism out there. I completely agree, however, that it's not something that one usually goes out and "becomes." In the case of some psychic vampires a person will become one by intentionally learning how to siphon energy off of people, just as you can learn to raise it from other sources, but it's not like you really gain anything from it. Even in magic, where you want to gather energy, it's generally advised to ground the remains before going about the rest of your business- carrying around excess energy really isn't healthy or helpful. People often think that you'd get special powers or something, but all you really get is an addiction to this excess (which becomes more and more difficult to maintain- much like other kinds of addictions) and the potential for attracting something really nasty toward yourself, in addition to the harm that you cause to other people.
Hopefully she'll run into some more educated folks and lose interest, but I think the main concern is what she thinks she may be able to get out of becoming a vampire.-_- I'm fairly certain that she's getting into something without any idea of what it is, thinking she'll get something good out of it when she's more likely just to pick up more problems.
(Btw, Tea's right. Perhaps you could write a description of why you're worried about a person like this- rather than sharing the convo itself- for a better approach.^_^ I know that no harm was meant, so please take this as the good-natured advice that it was intended to be.^_^)
