Editing Vampire: The Requiem (section)

===[[Aswang]]=== 
Actually several kinds of blood-drinking shapechanging supernatural creatures from the Phillipines, with one variety from World of Darkness: Antagonists and three from Night Horrors: The Wicked Dead. All share the common trait of being Technically Living Vampires, and thus suffering no effect from sunlight other than reverting to their human form during the day. The "vanilla" Aswang is a [[Monstergirls|race of exclusively female blood-suckers]] who never smile with their teeth because they have four pairs of canine teeth instead of the human two pairs - they reproduce by having sex with human men, producing perfectly normal human sons and aswang daughters. At night, they revert to the forms of ugly, [[hag]]gish versions of themselves with claws and elongated, fang-like teeth, who use their hypnotically beautiful voices to lure prey into their reach, as they must feed regularly or be trapped in their monstrous form even during the day. The Halimaw assumes the form of a demonic winged humanoid at night and feeds with its mawful of jagged fangs and ripping claws, as well as being prone to suffering from a split personality that makes it actually delude itself about being human during the day. The Tik-Tik becomes a monstrous blood-sucking bat/mosquito hybrid. The Sigbin becomes a fang-mouthed hornless goat that lulls people into a trance by clapping its oversized ears together. All forms of Aswang are hated by the Kindred, as they don't make any attempt to uphold the Masquerade and so "real" vampires have to work harder to cover up for them.
