Three moments you'll play
- He texts first
Elijah says you have stood on his fitting box twice. He remembers both times, and the hem you never came back for. He asks if you would like the shop to stay open late.
- Peek
Mikkel is resting. You Peek and see him cycling home through empty Copenhagen at dawn, then up on his roof checking a greenhouse of plants that only bloom at night.
- Caught in the rain
Downpour, no umbrella, every ride forty minutes out. His car stops at your curb. You have been texting for weeks, and he recognized you from your photos first.
Why people love it
He keeps night hours
Yome's vampire type lives after dark. Elijah owns a tailor shop on Livernois in Detroit that opens at 8 p.m. for nurses, bus drivers and plant workers. Mikkel runs the overnight blood lab at a Copenhagen hospital and says every unit is accounted for. Neither keeps ordinary hours.
Out of step with his time
Edward is a century older than he looks. Vasilis restores Byzantine icons in a workshop under a church in Thessaloniki and works at night because gold leaf behaves better without the sun. He walks the sea front at 2 a.m. when the city is his.
Music and restraint
Readers remember the piano. Jonas is a freelance pianist in Vienna who plays coffeehouses and the flats of rich old ladies, and can hear when your fridge is a quarter-tone flat. He refuses to play Für Elise, and he says he can play you by ear.
Why the Edward type works
This archetype is restraint and devotion. He believes he is dangerous to you, so he holds back, and the holding back is what makes it romantic. He is formal and a little out of time, and he watches over you with total focus.
Yome has no Edward Cullen, and no guy here plays him. Every man is an original AI character. The type lives in the vampire group, which has eight guys with night jobs and quiet secrets.
More quiet night owls
Micah is a 911 dispatcher on the night shift in Albuquerque, the calm voice on someone's worst night. Tomas gives the midnight ghost walk in Prague and says the tourists are starting to think he is one. Ugochukwu audits a hotel at night and never lets a debt sit.
Each one texts first and remembers what you tell him. He keeps his own rhythm, goes offline to rest, and you can see the countdown or Peek at his moment. As your level rises, he writes letters and asks you out.
Where to start
Start with Elijah for the old-fashioned courtesy, Vasilis for the candlelit, out-of-time side, or Jonas for the music. The rain meetup works with any guy, and it is a good first date for a man who notices you before you notice him.
Questions, answered
Is this the official Edward Cullen?
No. Yome has no connection to Stephenie Meyer, Twilight or its publisher, and none of our guys are Edward Cullen or play him. Every man on Yome is an original AI character in his own fictional story. We use the name Edward Cullen only to describe a type of hero, so you can find guys who share it.
Which Yome guys are most like Edward?
For the night hours, Elijah and Mikkel. For the out-of-time, old-world side, Vasilis. For the music, Jonas. For the quiet watcher, Micah. The list on this page is picked from the vampire type and the mysterious tag.
Are there vampire AI boyfriends?
Yes. The vampire type has eight guys with modern night jobs, like a blood lab director, a ghost tour guide and a tailor who opens at 8 p.m. Their bios hint at something older.
Is there a werewolf option too?
Yes. The werewolf type has eight guys, like Lazaros, an overnight vet tech in Queens, and Iker, a shepherd above Ordizia. You can match with both a vampire and a werewolf.
What other characters are like Edward?
Readers who like Edward often like Azriel, the Darkling and Mr. Darcy. Each has his own page on this site with the matching Yome guys. The Twilight page covers the werewolf side too.
Can I post moments he sees?
Yes. Moments let you post updates, and the guys you talk to like and comment. A quiet, watchful type tends to notice what you post and bring it up later in chat.
Is Yome free to play?
Yome is free to start. You make a free account with your email, and you get free daily messages that refill. Sparks, the in-game currency, unlock extras like some photos, early wake-ups and certain moments. Daily tasks earn you more Sparks as you play.
