Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

As a Moroi[]

  • Elements: Moroi have magical abilities that allow them to control the elements of earth, air, fire, water, and spirit. Moroi often specialize in one element in particular.
    • Earth: Natalie is able to manipulate the earth around her. This is shown when she uses her powers to hurt Rose.
  • Enhanced Immune System: Moroi don't get sick like humans. Although they can contract diseases, especially terminal diseases, it is unusual for Moroi to get sick or catch viruses.
  • Enhanced Senses: Moroi have stronger senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch than humans. Moroi are shown to be able to distinguish between Moroi/Dhampir/Human blood by taste.
  • Enhanced Speed: Moroi are faster than humans but aren't as fast as Strigoi and Dhampirs.
  • High Life Expectancy: Moroi are not immortal like Strigoi, but they still live longer than most humans. Most Moroi live up to 100–110 years old, although some can far exceed that.
  • Hunger Resistance: Moroi do not have to kill in order to feed, unlike Strigoi who always kill their bite victims, and instead feed in small, non-lethal increments.
  • Limited Darkness Adaptation: Moroi possess better night vision than humans, being able to see even in very dim illumination such as starlight.
  • Regenerative Healing Factor: Moroi heal easier and quicker than humans, allowing them to recover from injuries quickly so long as they feed.
  • Supernatural Beauty: Moroi are known to be highly attractive. They are immensely beautiful, slim, and tall; their skin is pale. However, Moroi do not need to have all of these features.

As a Strigoi[]

  • Darkness Adaptation: They possess perfect night vision and can see clearly even in complete darkness.
  • Enhanced Bite: Strigoi have an animalistic bite and jaw strength that allows them to shred and rend flesh.
  • Immortality: Strigoi are unable to be killed by natural causes (e.g., age, disease, heart failure, suffocation, etc.) except by staking them in the heart with a silver stake, by fire, by sunlight, or by decapitation.
  • Pain Tolerance: Strigoi can feel pain, though the older and more powerful they are, the higher their pain tolerance. Strigoi have the ability to heal from any injury within seconds.
  • Species Detection: With ease, they are able to distinguish between Strigoi, dhampirs, Moroi, witches, and ordinary people. Although dhampirs look almost like humans, they are recognized with ease by Strigoi via enhanced vision and smell.
  • Superior Endurance: Strigoi can maintain physical performance longer than Dhampirs and Moroi and not be greatly fazed by attacks.
  • Superior Senses: They can see, taste, touch, and hear better than Moroi and Dhampirs.
  • Superior Speed: Strigoi are faster than dhampirs and Moroi. They can easily catch up to their Moroi, dhampir, or human prey.
  • Superior Strength: Strigoi are significantly stronger and more fit than dhampirs or Moroi. A single strigoi can brutally beat even a well-trained dhampir into submission.
  • Supernatural Beauty: Similarly to Moroi, Strigoi are attractive by human standards. It is unclear whether this applies to human-turned Strigoi; however, Moroi and Dhampir-turned Strigoi are described to retain their attractiveness, which is amplified even further by their newfound grace.
  • Supernatural Healing Factor: Strigoi heal and recover almost instantly from any injury besides a silver stake in their heart, decapitation, or being burned by fire or sunlight. Blood can make recovery even faster and easier.
  • Vampirization: Strigoi can turn a human, Dhampir, or Moroi into another of their kind if any one drinks any amount of their blood, usually by force. Moroi can turn themselves into Strigoi by killing or draining their victim when they feed.

Weaknesses[]

As a Moroi[]

  • Mortality: Despite their healing factor, Moroi are still mortal and can die of advanced diseases, exsanguination, and severe injuries. They also weaken with age, just like humans.
  • Physical Weakness: Moroi aren't very strong physically and are absolutely no match for Strigoi. Compared to Dhampirs, Moroi are generally physically weaker and less nimble.
  • Sunlight: Moroi are sensitive to sunlight, and while exposure to sunlight is not lethal to Moroi, it is very uncomfortable.

As a Strigoi[]

  • Decapitation: Separating the head from the Strigoi's body will instantly kill them.
  • Fire: Fire is one of the four ways to kill a Strigoi; therefore, they tend to avoid it for fear of losing their immortality.
  • Oxygen Dependence: While Strigoi cannot die from suffocation, they still require oxygen and will lose consciousness if deprived of oxygen for too long.
  • Religious Symbols: Strigoi hate religion, holy water, saint crosses, and churches. They can't enter holy ground.
  • Silver Stake: The weapon damages the Strigoi's heart and kills them. A silver stake that is charmed with spirit magic can transform Strigoi back into their original form. A cut from a silver stake will cause them immense pain and has been described as feeling like acid being poured on their skin.
  • Sunlight: Strigoi burn when they are in direct sunlight. In the movie adaptation, Rosemarie has a flashlight with UV light, which causes their eyes to hurt.
