Description
The Striga is a type of vampire originating from Romania. Most come about post death, rising from the grave, but there is the possibility of being a human with Striga traits. Strigas are slightly stronger and faster than humans, and a lot harder to kill. Though they can shapeshift, they can only really change into Hedwig, Harry Potter's owl. One, in the history of Striga, was able to turn into a Bottlenose Dolphin, but it died quickly after that due to the landlocked nature of Romania. Their invisibility powers only last for 3 minutes, and during that time the Striga is powerless. They are moderately more improved in physical matters than a human. As typical of vampires, they like to suck blood. However, they're favorite snack is any kind of cereal that is left out for a week to become stale. It is eaten straight from a bowl with no milk.
How to Become a Striga
There are many ways to become a Striga, here are several:
- Born the seventh child, and same sex as other siblings, i.e. seventh son or seventh daughter
- Live a life of sin
- Die without being married
- Executed for perjury
- Commit suicide
- Cursed by a witch
How to Prevent a Striga
There is a six step process to stopping someone from becoming a Striga. Here is an outline of it:
- Exhume the Striga
- Cut its heart in two
- Drive a nail into its forehead
- Place a clove of garlic under its tongue
- Smear its body with the fat of a pig killed on St. Ignatius Day
- Turn its body face down
Abilities
Super Strength, Speed, and Senses, Shapeshifting (mostly just into Hedwig), Immortality, and Invisibility.
Tale
Jure Grando Alilović was said to be a Striga, though details are unclear on how he became one. After having risen from the dead, he became a dick (it's unclear if he was a dick prior to becoming a Striga). He would go on to murder many people in his village after having ding-dong-ditched them or other similar pranks, and even sexually assault his wife, but only when she was in front of a mirror so he could watch it happen. He smirked a lot, as if he had just watch Max Keeble's Big Move on VHS.
Eventually, their local priest was able to determine the cause of the murders of the town, and with the help of some towns folk, they were able to dig up Jure's perfectly preserved body and decapitate it to kill Striga Jure and bring peace back to the village.
It is said that, even today, a lot of money is unnecessarily spent looking into the truths behind this tale.
