Arget no offense on the post, but it was something that my own dog had done quiet recently and I couldn't hold myself back from putting it in the post. Also since I haven't found too much on Lamia's I'm gonna make the stuff up as I go about them but this what I will go by largely. Also Baphoment/Flavia your more than welcome to have your characters come to the apartment or contact via text message one of three of us.

That they're cold blooded or at least seem like it, hence for the suns heat and the warmth of liquor in the stomach. But Julie just likes to drink though too.

That under the influence of certain herbs the alternate form appears, with the tail and cannot change back for sometime unless Jasmine or lavender is consumed. But can activate or form their tail when needed.

They eat the hearts of people or in Julies case being a vegetarian and eating animal hearts. Also and prefer eating smaller children, unhinging the jaw swallowing them whole like a snake but with out the bloated effect of large stomach. Everything is processed fast.

Fire is they're greatest weakness, severely debilitating to them. It is the one sure fire way to kill a Lamia short of lopping of their head.

They're all female and have to mate with a human man to procreate.

They're have a healing rate say two time that of a human but it quickens drastically after or during feeding.

They're quiet strong after all they gotta be to rip a heart out right?
