I was journaling about the abilities I would want to have and I wrote down why.
- Shape Shifting: To fit in with society and seek approval from others; lack of identity
- Peak Condition: Perfectionism, OCD
- Enhanced Senses: Fear of ignorance and weak minded
- Hypnosis, Telekinesis, and Telepathy : Control Freak, OCD
- Invisibility: to hide
- Elemental: God complex
- Predatory: to feed off of others
All of these abilities put one intuitive image of the Strigoi- a vampiric spirit of Romanian lore. The Strigoi/Vampire has appeared in my dreams as well and is a recurring monster even since childhood and has been my most favorite monster and lore. I may not have a name for my shadow but at least I know what form or identity it takes
