It's really hard to know the abilities of each youkai's. Most especially vampires and we can go to the traditional way or the authors point of view in the story.
Man this is one reason why I want a sub forum for this. We can have a part where we can talk and have discussions about different youkai and their abilities and not just the POV of the author. O.T. Does MAN BAT count as a Youkai? lol Sorry just gotta put some Batman stuff there.

So far the author has gone the conventional route when it comes to monsters. He himself said he's a lover of monsters and such, and so far he's kept true to the mythos.
Anyway, we all know that if Tsukune was a video game character he'll be broken as all hell.

Hnn, I wonder if in this particular world, are there 'monster hunters'? Not like 'Blade', or 'Vamp Hunter D' but y'know, humans who have dedicated themselves to destroying monsters... That is another side that is worth looking into.

Humans I know have a pack that will co-exist with monsters as long as no harm will come to either parties.
The hunting monsters is an old tradition where monsters are considered EVIL. Which in R+V we do not see any evil...maybe lust, but not to the evil...evil itself re-incarnate evil. The good thing here is that the author is original he diverts from the old stories and beliefs and forms something original.

Yes, while that is all well and good, the truth is that there would be humans who'd hunt youkai regardless. Yes, those closed-minded individuals who hunt things that are non-human just because they are non-human. Tsukune has gotten to see the youkai-side of that, but not for the human-side of it. ^^

Well, at this point, we've seen no sign that humans are even aware that monsters exist (well, outside of Tsukune, and Kyo-chan might still have the faintest of ideas), so I highly doubt we're going to see any hunters, unless they're comical ones
And I have once more witnessed the awesomeness that is ch.12... Page 30 is Over 9000! (sorry, couldn't resist) Although something intrigues me- they said the Snow Priestess was suddenly acting strange. Now, I'm going to go out on a limb here, but maybe Karua has some sort of ability that allows her to transform into others. Or, as is the more plausible explanation based on vampire lore, the snow priestess was being controlled by her... maybe Moka and Kokoa aren't at the level required to gain such abilities yet yes, these are wild ideas, but hey, better than nothing

I find it hard to believe that there wouldn't be humans who know about youkai, especially of the long existence of both races. I would actually be excited to see some monster hunters, it would add to a nice arc. Instead of youkai trying to expose the school or use the school, we have some human hunter experts try to do the same.

And hey, just because Moka and Kokoa are "good" (by the standards set in this story) doesn't meen Karua is. I wonder if Inner Moka would be afraid of Karua?

All she has to do to run away is to hook on the rosario again and become the other Moka. That counts as 'hiding' too. lol

Also the fact after each battle she's hurt inner Moka doesn't show that she's hurt, but she really is infact. No wonder she puts in the Rosario quickly and outer Moka faints in exhaustion. Another way of hiding her weak self after battle. Kinda like a fighter that hides that he's hurt in a competition. She's a true noble vampire of blood, Pride.

Phew... the writing bug bit me hard tonight, and the rough draft for ch.3 of a Water Bride and a Vampire is done... Tempest, be warned, it's a decent-sized file, coming in at about 6 and a quarter pages in MSWord
... I'll send it to you in the morning, and have fun editing ... though you're going to ahve to tweak Lorelei around. I can never write her properly, though i try.
