I mean I'm guilty of a lot of shit but pushing stupid fucking mermaid spam on this thread like I'm a fucking balding Asian street racketeer with a stall full of desperate Mermaids and Nereids is not one of them.

I've literally only ever been on /monster/ for maybe one thread to plug a Manticore story several years ago. As much as vocal people dislike me understandably so because I tend to create my own problems, this place is still the only monster girl thread I actually enjoy.

Have a sacrifice as recompense.

They're referred to as Chinese hopping vampires because blood vessels are the primary means of the movement of Qi in the human body according to Taoism. It's a common thematic that's survived for centuries, which was given notoriety in Europe via novel(la)s like Bram Stoker's Dracula or even Carmilla by Le Fanu.

The key difference between a Jiangshi and a vampire is that a vampire is usually articulate and well-behaved, the Jiangshi is not. This is because when they die, the Hun (personality, intelligence) leaves the body, while the Po (more animalistic and base behaviors) does not. Jiang Shi also detect you by your breath, so as Hong Kong cinema will often do as a tongue in cheek joke like in Mister Vampire, people will plug their nostrils to escape.

They also can do twisted shit like sucking your blood out of your skin pores like a vacuum if strong enough in the movies. But the good thing is you can distract a Jiang Shi with throwing rice or coins on the ground as a joke against rice merchants in Qing Dynasty China.

Hope that helped.

There's far too many MGs that don't have good stories but whatever. Can't expect much from a few namefags and amateur writers.
