The
following images explain the "Glowing Effect" of Vampire Eyes
The IRIS-GLOW
of the Vampire-eye depends much on the "mood" of the creature, this means,
in a relaxed situation (freshly fed, mentally calm etc.) the IRIS is folded
like an umbrella (see image 1.)
When folded
like this, the Light that falls into the eye is being absorbed
Thus the eye
looks rather normal (of course to a mortal, vampire-eyes always seem to
be piercing and strange-looking)
Now when a Vampire
is starving for blood (hunger), or in a rage (anger) or else (lust
- anxiety - fear) it has an effect on the IRIS of its eyes.
The Vampire
instinctively contracts the IRIS so that its surface becomes flat and shiny
like a mirror (see next image)
Now the eye
begins to glow: it reflects any bit of light that hits this surface
This gives our
vampire-eye the glowing appearance.
