Just the basics, If I forgot any/ I made an error with any of the following just leave a post!

Baby bat- New to the whole Goth scene. They are normally teenagers.

Body mod Goth- Piercing and tattoos in abundance. Their sole thought is what to get modified next. Airport security's worst nightmare...

Bondage Goth- The fetish culture is heavily populated with Goths, maybe because of the accepting nature of the Gothic culture. Think of PVC and leather with lots of adornments such as whips, chains and handcuffs.

Caffeine Goth- will most likely be discussing deep, meaningful topics very, very quickly. Their system runs on caffeine and they think coffee should be one of the major food groups

Corporate Goth- Goth at heart, through their suit. Corporate Goths survive on stress and love their jobs, often part Caffeine Goth.

Crow Goth- A la Eric Draven...

Cyber Goth- Electrical circuitry as accessories and duct tape as clothing.

Literature Goths- Do well on the written word. Highly inteligent, always well-expressed.

Medieval Goth- If you meet one outside of this type you can recognize it by its corset and garters. Can often sew, have English accent or fight with a sword. Or all of the above.

Mopey Goth- The sorrow of the world lies on their shoulders and they want you to know it.

Old school Goth- Their black is blacker than yours. They've been listening to Bauhaus since before you were born... They tend to speak that since they are older, they are wiser, so all must bow before them.

Pagan Goth- With their flowing robes and silver pentacles, even an ordinary Pegan can be mistaken for a Goth.

Perky Goth- Yes, you can be Goth without being depressed. Yes, you can be Goth while wearing pink glitter. Yes, they do resemble raving lunatics. Who said Goth has to be dull and dark? Perky Goths are out to have fun!

Punk Goth- Gothic began from where the punk ended. The Punk Goths got the best of both worlds.

Role-playing Goth- Fans of Dungeons and Dragons. Also these Goths often seem to spend unnatural amounts of time on their computer.

Romantic Goth- Think Morticia and Gomez Addams for the ultimate version of romantic Goths. Whether quoting Edgar Allan, or presenting each other with black roses these Goths are the epitome of gothic romance. Love knows no true bounds...

Slut Goth- Found wearing fishnet and high boots. This is the person that everybody lusts after, and luckily they never stay in a relationship long enough to put people off.

Spooky kid- Marilyn Manson worshipper. The original band name was Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids".

Trendy Goth- Real Goths shun these trendies and see them as poseurs. Instead of bleach blonde locks these Goths sport black hair, black tops from Gucci and Versace skirts. Haven't a clue who Bauhaus are, but that doesnt matter because they get to have their popularity contests whatever.

Vampire Goth- nuts about vapmires, Anne Rice, Lestat and the others from the big happy family. Some have artificial fangs.

Weird Goth- The people that even the Goths give distrustful looks at. They do what they want, say what they think and generally freak everyone out. A weird sense of humour and complete lack of embarrassment are basics for this type of goth.
