vampi

Vampi is a term that may refer to different things in different contexts and does not have a singular, widely recognized definition in English. The spelling variant is sometimes used to evoke a contemporary or stylized guise of the word vampire.

In fiction and media, Vampi is occasionally used as the name of a vampire character, a faction, or a vampiric species. Narrative uses range from horror to fantasy, often drawing on familiar vampire lore—immortality, heightened senses, and a need to consume blood—though the exact abilities, weaknesses, and cultural roles vary by work. Some authors and game designers use Vampi to avoid directly using the word vampire while signaling related themes.

As a proper noun, Vampi may occur as a surname or toponym in fictional settings or, less commonly, as an alternate spelling in real-world languages. No standard geographic or genealogical definition applies.
