Vampires are mythological or folkloric beings who subsist by feeding on the life essence (generally in the form of blood) of living creatures, regardless of whether they are undead or a living person.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Although vampiric entities have been recorded in many cultures and in spite of speculation by literary historian Brian Frost that the "belief in vampires and bloodsucking demons is as old as man himself", and may go back to "prehistoric times",[7] the term vampire was not popularized until the early 18th century, after an influx of vampire superstition into Western Europe from areas where vampire legends were frequent, such as the Balkans and Eastern Europe,[8] although local variants were also known by different names, such as vrykolakas in Greece and strigoi in Romania. This increased level of vampire superstition in Europe led to mass hysteria and in some cases resulted in corpses actually being staked and people being accused of vampirism.

While even folkloric vampires of the Balkans and Eastern Europe had a wide range of appearance ranging from nearly human to bloated rotting corpses, it was the success of John Polidori's 1819 novella The Vampyre that established the archetype of charismatic and sophisticated vampire; it is arguably the most influential vampire work of the early 19th century,[9] inspiring such works as Varney the Vampire and eventually Dracula.[10]

However, it is Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula that is remembered as the quintessential vampire novel and which provided the basis of modern vampire fiction. Dracula drew on earlier mythologies of werewolves and similar legendary demons and "was to voice the anxieties of an age", and the "fears of late Victorian patriarchy".[11] The success of this book spawned a distinctive vampire genre, still popular in the 21st century, with books, films, video games, and television shows. The vampire is such a dominant figure in the horror genre that literary historian Susan Sellers places the current vampire myth in the "comparative safety of nightmare fantasy".[11]

Story:
A researcher on the beasts of Galiavan and many such creatures that roam the planet. Reiri, is one who enjoys her work, and takes pride in studying creatures in their natural habitat. However, despite being a critical member of about nearly all beastiary guides; she is also a voreologist. This is the study of 'eating' and she studies the natural response of creatures when they encounter other sources of prey...namely herself. Due to her being a special kind of Vampire, she can be eaten-digested and pass throughout the eating process of mostly all creatures, and then is able to piece herself back together afterward. She would then write an article about it. She is devoted to her cause; to record the dietary process of each creature she finds, and is considered an expert in her field...then again, not many survive the digestion process or are as willing as she is to be swallowed alive. She usually will slip into her black bikini before she attempts to let anything devour her.
