Reply to comment by SirPiecemaker in [WP] The new generation of vampire has discovered that just by taking iron supplements and vitamin D drops, they’re feeling fine without drinking human blood by Superben14

I'm no writer; I only had one measly angle on this, and it was different than yours. Perhaps, in a future variation, it might be incorporated as a penultimate enticement for the elders?

Seeing the sun is marvellous, and also does wonders for one's general mental disposition. But to be in the sun is to be seen by others. Now, I don't presume to call a fellow vampire vain but, as a whole, we do appreciate proper appearance. Yes, I know, we all have the means and inclination of keeping handmaidens, but what I'm getting at is, this tincture finally allows us to make use of mirrors.

Only if you're using old mirrors that contain silver to reflect - modern ones do not and would serve well for vampires.

Not to mention that the stubborn bastards would keep drinking humans; the main thing our protagonist takes issue with.
