So, uh... (morphing vampires)

[powertrash]

I was going to blame this on Twilight, but in truth, I am just so obsessed with Buffy that I can't not think about this ****.

Hypothetically, if supernatural creatures were real, could you morph them? Is vampire DNA different from human DNA? What if you morphed a werewolf on the full moon? Would you change? Could you morph a zombie?

well according to twilight, vampires and werewolves have different numbers of chromosomes than humans, so I guess they're just different species.

but none of it is real so you can justify it any way u want

[Agent 128]

As long as it's based on DNA, it can be morphed, so I'm thinking yes.

[Slushie Man]

Vampires and zombies, I'm not sure of as they are essentially dead. Plus, not sure about vampires, but zombies would have the exact same DNA as the person they used to be so if anything you'd probably just morph into the living person - remember, absorbing DNA doesn't absorb injuries so you diffinitly wouldn't be able to morph a zombie and even a vampire I find iffy.

A werewolf however could be possible as that is an entirely different, living, creature that the person changes into. I'd say 'Nay' on Vampire and Zombie but 'Yay' on Werewolf. But that's just my personal belief.

[Chad32]

I agree with Slushie that you shouldn't be able to morph something that's undead. In the case of Vampires, the blood running through their veins is not their own anyway. Werewolves should be fine because they aren't undead.

What a stupid question ^^'
lol sorry

Anijen, [spoiler]just to tell you... There is no werewolf in Twilight (we don't see them, to be exact...).[/spoiler]

Except that... I think morphing a (un)dead wouldn't be a good idea. And morphing a werewolf would be dangerous. But the best way to know... would be to try

Vampires are supernatural dead things that need human blood to continue their existance. so no morphing could not happen.

[Phoenix004]

It all depends on what "type" of Vampire you're talking about, as not all fiction describes Vampires as dead. However, assuming that they were indeed dead, it would be impossible to morph them (it was never explained why exactly, but it was made clear that you couldn't acquire a dead animal).

[anijen21]

eh, that's contradicted. In #18, they morph mosquitoes in order to get the blood so they can acquire it (eg, dead tissue) but then in MM2 they can't acquire the T-Rex that Ax killed so they can have a thrilling action scene acquiring a live one. I'm convinced that if someone wanted to write fic with this (I think Visser Zero already has, actually), you could definitely make it work, depending on what detail from this canon and what vampire canon you pick.

[wildweathel]

(super-)Natural shape changing and morphing should interact in interesting ways; the butterfly morph is our only cannon example.

Would make good fanfic if I could get my writing skills up to grade.

I haven't really given much thought into them morphing the vampires/werewolves but this topic kind of gives me some motivation to try. By the way, thanks for my first review ever.

Other stupid question for cross-over: If you morph Sylar, would you have the powers he took from other people?

Oops sorry, it's off-topic ^^'

Phoenix is right: a vampire who is in fact a mutant, I don't see why it wouldn't work. But Dracula or other dead vampires... you can't really do it.
In Animorphs, (I don't really remember who it happens but) maybe in #18 they thought they could do it, and in MM2 they saw that in fact they couldn't, and if they tried in #18 it wouldn't work...?

[powertrash]

I did only watch up to s3 of heroes, but we never do find out how Sylar takes the other's powers, do we? So it would depend on if he was able to incorporate them into a part of his DNA or if they were just...something else.


What if they tried to morph the Ellimist?

[Phoenix004]

What if they tried to morph the Ellimist?

Well that's really a different topic, but I would assume not. The Ellimist no longer has a physical body, therefore it's highly unlikely he can be acquired.

[alaois]

...may be a stupid question, but it's exactly the type of thing the real animorphs would've discussed lol.
