I find Guilda interesting because she isn't really a regular stereotypical vampire. It seems like the the only similarities that Guilda has with a vampire is her appearance and the fact that she is immortal as well. Vampires are known for being scary, and evil and are typically male. Guilda is a female vampire who uses her powers positively and takes blood from people and gives something in return.
One topic we discussed in class was whether Guilda genuinely likes helping people, or if it is wrong that she is using these people for their blood. She needs blood for her to survive, like any typical vampire, but in return for the blood Guilda gives the person something helpful. It is argued whether is she is good or evil for somewhat using these people for their blood. Personally I think she is good, because it is not necessary for her to give something in return for their blood. She does it because it seems the the fair thing to do since she needs blood to survive, and at the same time she's benefiting the person whom she's taking the blood from.
