Some people are of the impression that possession is uncommon? Whoa, that's just an alien thought to me.
Me too, but mostly because I've seen and experienced so many successful extractions and the benefits after such an experience, that I just naturally accept it as having a place. Much like surgery, or doctor's appointments.
Do you suppose for those with vampiric tendencies it would be classed as possession?
That what would be classed as possession? The vampiric energy itself? Or something else? *is confused* Sorry!
Also, do you think there must be some kind of soul-fragmentation for this sort of thing to happen?
Erm, *thinks* yeah I think so. Possession can occur within a whole soul, buuuut, I'm pretty sure it has to be an entirely voluntary experience and it doesn't last - is naturally transitional, because the soul will naturally push out something that doesn't belong, if it outstays its welcome.
