A particular subspecies of Dark Other, vampires survive on blood and posess numerous supernatural abilities. A Dark Other cannot simply decide to “become” a vampire. A vampire may be artificially created through the consumption of vampiric blood or inherit the condition from a parent. Any Dark Other wishing to become vampiric would first need to convert to blood as a primary food source, then seek out another Vampire to fully undergo the change. The conversion process requires a license, issued by the Night Watch. The one undergoing conversion must be an Other. Vampire-human hybrids are not unknown; while they age normally, hybrids are still considered Others and require blood to fuel their abilities. Because of their unnatural lifespan and hunger for human blood, vampires are required to register with the Night Watch nearest to their place of residence. While blood is integral to their survival, most vampires live on blood legally obtained from meat markets or donated from blood banks.
