If you had the choice.

Mid to late 20s. All the positives of being young without all the sudden hormonal changes.

Though, after the menopause might be better as having your period surrounded by vampires might be a little dangerous tricky.

Yes I was thinking of max early 30s.

I never thought about periods though!

21, I was slim and very pretty then.

Ithinkmycatisevil · 04/07/2019 21:23

About 18, that’s when I was at my best.

  1. I'd finished with babies and breastfeeding made me my lowest weight. Yeah... 32.
Advisemeplease1 · 04/07/2019 21:27

Also, you wouldn't have periods as you'd be (un)dead.

FaithInfinity · 04/07/2019 21:30

I was thinking 29 but I’d got to my goal weight at 35...hmm. I’d want to be a slim vampire!

Definitely no periods as a vampire, they don’t ovulate because they’re frozen in time so no period. (Don’tcha know that’s why the blonde one was so mardy in Twiglet?!).

  1. Had for rid of the awkwardness of teens, was still slim and fit, had worked out various style choices etc... Daft thing is I was convinced I have as fat... I'd love to be that "fat" now! Confused
Silversun83 · 04/07/2019 21:36

29/30.. Was at my peak fitness!

ragged · 04/07/2019 21:37

now... early 50s. All the easier to lure victims when you are socially invisible & seem totally boring.

Jupiters · 04/07/2019 21:51

22ish I think.

cranstonmanor · 04/07/2019 21:53

Somewhere around 27-29. I was good looking (but didn't realise), had loads of energy and loved going out at night.

dudsville · 04/07/2019 21:53

50! Maturity, knowledge, I'd rule the 20 something vamps!

Crunchymum · 04/07/2019 21:55

Well as skinny seems to be a common theme I'd say 27.... I was 7st something then

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 04/07/2019 21:57

About now - mid-late 40s.

I'd be the vampire that goes in and straightens up anything annoying me before I lean in for my fill...

AhhhHereItGoes · 04/07/2019 22:16

I'd say 30ish next year.

Still quite young, developed mentally apparently and likely less impulsive.

No periods for camps though - their hearts are frozen.

I reckon Bella from Twishite wanted to be a vampire so she'd no longer have PMS. She was practically always suffering from it.

AhhhHereItGoes · 04/07/2019 22:17

Camps = vamps Grin

Atalune · 04/07/2019 22:18
  1. I thought I could rule the world, and given the chance I would have.

I was full of confidence, slim, hangover free, life and soul. 25 was my best.

Take me baaaaaaaaaaack!!!

SecretWitch · 04/07/2019 22:20

Age 22, I was fresh and beautiful.

DC90 · 04/07/2019 22:22

I was at my peak at 21. Best time of my life so to spend eternity like that would be amazing as long as my friends were vampires too!

MonstranceClock · 04/07/2019 22:25

I think I'd like to be a more mature vampire. They're more sinister. Like Morticia. mid 40's.

RageAgainstTheVendingMachine · 04/07/2019 22:29

34 That's how old Natasia Demetriou is (what we do in the shadows) and she looks pretty good Wink Or 43-45 as that's Matt Berry's/Taika Waititi's age although the latter would still consider me young when I'm 96, bless.

Hadenoughofitall441 · 04/07/2019 22:44

My age now, 31, I look young enough to be a teen but can also get away as a 30 year old.... perfect when you have to start over.

Early 50s is a good shout, definitely no-one would suspect you. I think that’s a Netflix series right there.

About 25 I was slim and gorgeous then
