Blood Mate- This is marriage for vampires. To do this, at least one of the two parties has to have reached adulthood. During intercourse, they must consume each other's blood, leaving behind the Mark. This only works if the two are meant to be together, and if they truly love each other.

Blue Blood- This is an archaic, but common term for blue haired vampires. It was once believed that they had blue blood, but was proven wrong. This term is often used to show respect.
