In most lore, you also need to drink vampire blood to turn.

New one on me. I just imagined that vampires can control how they feed: kill the victim, turn the victim or just drain the victim. In fact, before this subreddit, I just assumed a vampire biting you turned you!

Weird thing to learn today, but whatever. It's something!

I thought that was for turning humans into thralls? Or maybe the two need to feed on each other to make a full vampire and just drinking the vampire's blood, without reciprocation, makes you fall under the vampire's power.

It's all fiction, man. Different writers have slightly different takes on the mythology of it all.
