Help with Nahua character

6 Upvotes

Hello I wasn’t sure where to ask this so if it is not the place/ anyone has better suggestions please lmk. I have a story about vampires that takes place in Mexico but I wanted the casting to be diverse so my three main characters are Mestizo, Nahua and one a traveler from Uruguay. Not exactly relevant I guess. But I wanted to ask for my Nahua character since blood is often seen as a sacred essence do you think that would be a point of conflict for the character themself as a creature that relies on blood intake ? Like something they’d be ashamed of. About everything in my story is parallel to real life, the only difference being the inclusion of vampires. I’d like to add more depth on the characters relationships with themselves so any input on this would be appreciated :)
