can a cross really kill a vampire?

It's sad that you'll be able to list every way to kill a vampire but probably won't know what to do if a gorilla is about to smash your face in out of sheer hilarious rage. Also, it's infinitely more likely than a vampire attack.

Gorillas are make-believe, silly!

I just use Federal Hydrashocks .45ACPs made out of silver and stuff the hollowpoint cavity with some garlic when I need to kill me some vampires.

Rememeber.
2 to the chest
1 to the head.







Oh yeah, forgot to add. These bullets work good againts zombies too.

Garlic and running water repels vampires: Myth. Such notions are nothing more than old wives' tales, cultural biases or perhaps the bane of certain bloodlines of Kindred.

Vampires are repulsed by crosses and other holy symbols: Myth - almost. While such is not generally the case, the devout sometimes do affect the Kindred with miraculous aspects of their faith.

Then why can't vampires knowingly cross rivers?

Who said they can't?

1.) Crosses do not kill vampires, they only repel them.
2.) The cross must be a relic from holy ground, ie. from a church and not made from your fingers or two sticks.
3.) The cross must be weilded by someone with true faith, otherwise it's about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

If you are being hunted by a vampire, your best course of action is as follows...

1.) Grind up and boil garlic, fill a supersoaker with it and carry it at all times.
2.) Grab the largest and sharpest piece of silverware you can find, it will come in handy if the vampire gets into melée range.
3.) Keep those two items on you at all times and make your way to a church or other holy site, the vampire cannot set foot there.
4.) Stay there and hope that it loses interest, assuming you're not a martial artist you won't stand a chance in a face-to-face confrontation.

thanks!
