Okay, here's SPOILER SPACE...
*****************************
"Separated At Birth" Comparison between
President James Norcross
(a.k.a. "Super President" from the
1960's cartoon series)
and George "Dubya" Bush
(a.k.a. "Super Resident")
Norcross: Has no name for his secret identity.
Bush: Can't remember his name.
Norcross: Has a bumbling assistant, Jerry Sale,
to make excuses for his public absences, and
who is threatened by villains in each show.
Bush: Has stumbling Vice President Cheyney to make
excuses for Bush's public lapses, and who
is threatened by heart attacks each month.
Norcross: Wears clothes that are clear proof that
he does not come from the United States.
Bush: Wears clothes from Texas.
Norcross: Was never really elected President.
Bush: Well?
END OF SPOILER SPACE
***************************
The bite of a vampire in BNW does not automatically make a person a
vampire. It is possible that the vampire bite will kill someone,
which might cause that person to become a delta, but there are very
few chances (and no anecdotal evidence) that a delta awakened in this
fashion must or even might become a vampire.
Of course, the vampires aren't going to dissuade people from that
delusion, and it might be amusing for players of "Vampire: The
Masquerade" in the BNW world to willingly submit to them...only to
find out that they're dying, and not becoming "romantic vampires."
(And good riddance to the bastards for that.)
