There are two ways to become a Vampyre, but there is no way to differentiate between Vampyres produced by each method. The first method is to be originally human with the capability to become a Vampyre, and then to turn in the presence of an Ancient. These first turn into Fledgings, and sometime after their eighteenth birthday, they become fully fledged Vampyres. Fledgings are normally turned during puberty or adolescence. The second method is to be a child of two Vampyres. Like those who begin as humans, the children will first become Fledgings, and then Vampyres later.
