"Becoming a maker is an eternal commitment, greater than any marriage, deeper than any human bond."

―Eric Northman to Pam^[src]

Makers are Vampires who have turned humans into Vampires. The new Vampire ( known as a progeny) must then stay with their maker until they are released and know enough about the Vampire laws.

Traits & AbilitiesEdit

"I renounce the ties of our blood, and my dominion over you as my progeny. As your maker, I release you."

―Eric Northman to Pam^[src]

TraitsEdit

A maker has a very deep connection with his/her progeny, something that no human can fully understand. During the transformation from human to vampire, both the maker and progeny are buried together.

Abilities Edit

A maker has a certain amount of conrtol over their progeny.

• Calling a Progeny - The maker can "call" his/her progeny whenever he wants. To the progeny this feels like a shiver all over their body. It possibly also reveals the progeny where his/her maker is.
• Empathic link - Makers can sense if their progeny dies, is in pain or duress. It is unknown if a progeny can sense the death or pain of their maker.
• Commands - Makers can force their progenies to do anything they want. They just have to include the words "As your maker, I command you". These words have no effect if the progeny was previously released.
• Release - When the a maker says the words "As your maker, I release you", his/her progeny is completely released of any control from his/her maker forever.
• Strength - Makers are mostly stronger than their progenies because of the age. There are however, rare cases where the progeny directly overpowers his or her master, without any external help.
