In The Vampire Diaries, becoming a vampire is a two-step process. A person must first die with vampire blood already in their system, causing them to awaken in a transitional state. To complete the transformation, they inust drink human blood within 24 hours. If they choose not to, they die permanently instead of becoming a vampire.

In The Originals, the white oak ash dagger is one of the few weapons capable of temporarily incapacitating an Original vampire. When the ash-coated silver dagger is plunged into an Original's heart, they enter a death-like state known as being
"daggered," remaining completely unconscious until the dagger is removed.
While they cannot be killed by the dagger alone, it renders them powerless for as long as it stays in place, making it a favored method the Mikaelson siblings use to imprison one another without causing permanent harm.
