Cruxim / Crusnik / Krusnik / Black AngelThis is a featured page

-By freedragon

You could say that it is a special class of Vampire. But it is not really a Vampire; it is not a corpse resurrected from the dead. It is a Humanoid, usually has silver hair with wings like that of an angel but they are black instead of white (as far as I have found out anyways) have red eyes, and drink the BLOOD OF VAMPIRES!

I still haven't found its official name....I have found that some people referred to them as a "Cruor Crux Crucis", or "Comedo de Lamia', or 'Crusnik/Kusnik', which means (in order from the right to left) Blood Cross (or Cross of Blood), Eater of Vampires/Witches, and Companion of the Cross. Actually some just used to call them the " Black Angels". The proper name seems to be Crusnik / Krusnik, and their second name and the most accurate alternative is Black Angel. I have found out that this is what you would call "God's Mercy" in some sense. Probably because they take down the vampires that hunt humans. I suppose God sent them to help deal with the evil vampires plaguing the mortals on Earth. This could be another reason for the name "Black Angel".
Please note that what follows are the personal speculations of the author.

Now many of you maybe asking yourselves " Why drink Blood from Vampires? they get their blood from humans. Wouldn't it be easier for a creature that can beat and feed on a Vampire to get the blood from humans?" Now I have a couple of theories of why this might be. They may or may not be dead on right but it should give you an idea.

The first theory:

The theory is that once the blood enters a vampire and becomes its own the properties change, it becomes infused with supernatural energy. The vampires use the energy to maintain their otherworldly powers like fast regeneration, super speed, flight, etc. So the Black Angels feed on the processed blood to process it even further to achieve higher powers.

Thus ataining it from humans it would not have the same nutritional value. These creatures can also eat normal human food, however they don't like it as much and need (obviously) more than the avarage person. Unlike vampires they can digest things other than liquids (however it is harder for them but not impossible). They would obviously prefer the blood of a Vampire rather than some steak.

The second theory:

It has been suggested that Vampires drink blood for their plasma, because their bodies can't produce it any more and because they can extract their nutritional value much more effectively through liquids (obviously solid food does not agree with them). However its supposed that Crusniks/Black Angels don't need the plasma because their bodies can produce it, thus its just better to get blood with out plasma. Also, based on the idea that a stronger being requires more energy to function than a weaker one, a Vampire is more nutritional than a human is and of course the blood has different properties, it makes more sense for the Crusnick to go after one Vampire rather than a bunch of humans.

The Third and final theory:

It also has been suhgested that Vampires go after humans for their "life" energy in their blood. As you might guess the life energy is not only energy stored within the blood but the will of life; the person's energy, if you will. So, if a Vampire drinks the blood of humans for their life energy because its already dead (a Vampire is a corpse brought back from the dead that feeds on the blood of people, by definition), then a Black Angel would be feeding not only on the nutrients of the Vampire's blood, but also on the life energy that becomes the Vampire's from the humans, and the refined energy from other humans. and since a Crusnik is presumably not dead, it can create its own life energy, thus adding to it the Vampires and human energy.



However they do rather Constant Blood vampires. That is to say Vampires that feed constantly and often on humans. Which is often because the hunt indiscriminantly, which is likely to be classifieded as "evil". So it could they be are classified as some kind of "knight" in our favor.

In Slovenian legends it is said that the krsnik 's soul leaves the body, either voluntarily or due to a higher power. and it turns into an animal at night to fight off vampires, with the krsnik appearing as a white animal.

which one is true? and can you give me references which support your theory?
please and thank you

Very interesting info and good points (theories) on feeding. I've read the lore of these creatures was found among Croatians and some Slovenians in the north Adriatic peninsula of Istria and islands off its coast.
I have a serious interest in this (for my own purposes ^^). What about their weaknesses? There definitely has to be a way to kill the black angel, since vampires are not easy taken too. And how does one become the black angel? Any opinions on this matter?
