The new CBS series Eternally Yours brings vampires to Seattle and explores the love that Charles (Ed Weeks) and his wife, Liz (Allegra Edwards), have somewhere deep down after their marriage has grown stale after 500 years together. Like many vampire stories before it, Eternally Yours plays with the idea of what a vampire is capable of, including how their abilities differ between vampires. At New York Comic Con, the cast spoke with Collider about the new show, powers, and what could potentially happen in the future for its characters.

Jesse (Parker Young) is the only vampire in their coven who has the ability to mind-wipe humans, meaning that he is someone who can make you forget that your entire family are vampires — that is, if you’re his human wife, Phyllis (Rose Abdoo). These powers are all slow-moving, though. The half-vampire children of Phyllis and Jesse are still learning their powers, and at NYCC, Jaren Lewison spoke to Collider about how excited he is to explore Max’s powers as a baby vampire.

“I’m just honestly interested in what powers Max is going to have because we do see that in our show, vampires have different powers. Not everyone has the same powers. Some of them have special powers, like Jesse is the only one that can do the mind wipe. I don’t know what powers Max has yet and he’s a baby vampire. He’s sort of… they’re coming in as we speak. So I think we all have telepathy, I think we all have the super speed that goes in short bursts. I think we all have super strength, but I’m not sure. So there’s a lot that we’re going to end up learning.”
