Kruv Vampires

"'Lamia made them into the perfect predator and then she made them able to spread their disease.'"Kruv Vampires are the original breed of vampires which originated from an old Heron blood line. Unlike Sarka or Ortova vampires they are not made by another but are humans born with a dormant gene that can be triggered into completion. They are by far the most powerful breed out of the species.

Characteristics
Kruv vampires are very easily mistaken for humans often due to physical changes being unnoticeable. Their skin, eyes, diet and tolerance to the sun and U.V remains unchanged and if they choose to, they can continue to mainstream alongside other humans and possibly live their entire lives as normal as possible.

Although a steady consumption of blood is needed to fuel their life force from essentially being dead they can go without blood for many months at a time - even older Kruv's, the Ancients can even go without a drop of blood over years. But they can eat and drink regular food if they please.

The only physical trait that they all share is a distinctive lightening like scar the stretches the length of either hands palm.

Also being the only breed that is able to co-exist alongside humans, they are the most rare due to the inherited dormant gene from the old LM bloodline of herons being almost bred out into extinction. In modern day society the only time it occurs is a ratio of 1:1,000,000 and then further thinned being exclusive to only the families that had a ancestor with the bloodline as viable candidates. More often then not Kruv humans are born not even aware of their 'abilities' so many live and die as regular humans.

Reproduction is either through intercourse as unchanged Kruv's (those who haven't completed the transition) or a male Kruv vampire with a human female, to produce a unkindred Kruv child.

Reproduction of other Vampires is through the exchange of venom or a blood transfusion, both produce Ortova vampires and only Ortova vampires.
