"...for nat all fiends are sanguināri bruccta, prepared is he who kan the sodalities who drains one's essence through other queer means. For what is a vampyr but a demon who hungers for mortal vēdis in all its forms? Fare fayne, fellow hunter, for wisdom you seek lies within.

"To the lands of the Nibeth Bay low, wenden the 'Rosa-Brucca' or Rose-Eaters als 'Sex-Demons' and 'Those-Who-Steal-Genitals.' This strain of fiends perform their rites of conversion to Sanginus Sensualis, who grants them the ability to drink nat mortal cruor but carnal euphoria, al be that the vocal climax or spermatic fluids. Heed the omens of the night sky, for when the moons shine red and black, are yep scions doon birth. They goon thilke of other fiends, al be han ever mo charisma in place of physical strength. Use this to your boon. Be curious, for magicks of the mind and language do they eek use.

"The Reach han micel a foul wight, fro devilish witch-men to crow-women whom daungers of umbra are. One particular tribe are only of monsters like those of these pages. The Atolottach - or as hatan wyse Northmen call them 'Rapists of Kyne and her Sely Green' - are enemies of all Nirn's beauty. Crow-Women summon their totem-demon Ircyrne to curse the corageless warrior of the undeath, to hunger nat for blood, but for forces of the wilds. The first Atolottach tho sired all the rest of their kinde to battle against the covens of Wyrd and northern mountain-tribes. Find them ywis through their skin as dark as the Reach's earth, eyen so hollow, and speed, strength, feralness noot any vampyr. They moot nat hunger for your sanguis, but they drink the vitality of life all around, fro the vary flora and fauna, using their demonic daungers to manipulate and corrupt. Two clans lie within, best nat to confuse. The Oricanach are bound to the fauna in the west and feed upon the michel beasts. The Néllan hide in the cliffs of Sky's Rim and, as quod in the sagas, 'eat the Hawk-Bitch's sky-shouts and turn them against her children.'

"Mickel keep to the nyce's notion for panacea but al that requires coition with foul devils. Death is the only salvation. The Cult of Varmina in the northern temple are kan for the alchemical woot and claim to brew swich cure. Michel come seeking, most drink death but few unshackle one chain for another. They transform into Swevenstriders or Nightcallers who feed upon the magicka of mortal swevens. They goon pale and thin, terrifying and skeletal. With time and training, they learn to enter swevens and manipulate them. Sleeping near their hunting grounds is nolde recommended. Worry nat for only here do they hold daunger. Within the waking world, are they oh so weak and the light of the sun is namely to spell their doom. But ever curious, for illusions micel they kan.

"The Clan of Foul-Breathers or Soul Devourers commonly hatan were the first vampiric clan that sang praised Moloch Baal, whereas the Beolfagi tried to revolt. As swich, gan they summon the devil-king intil Nirn and became the curse upon their hunger to ne drink blood but directly the mortal animus. This clan roams in northern Colovia and are commonly sighted with their eeiry glowing blue eien. Michel hunters swear that those who feed often absorb the talents, desires, and thoughts of their victims.

"Though common, doon vampyre roam nat only in the cold tundra but als upon the drylands of Elsweyr. The S'zha Krini or the 'Mad Laughing Dancers' are one swich kinde. It be quod that one night, the Skooma Cat tricked a clan of fiend raiders on their gyse to attack a caravanserai-cult to stead work for him. They danced for sixteen days and nights til wood took its hold. The foul clan gan around raiding whilom mo, but upon infection gan they nat serve Molagh, but Sheggorath. The Dancers are smaller and mo agile than most, holding mo grit. They sate their hunger by draining one's sanity and inspiring various emotions upon their victim. Everich vampyr fare as its own strain, inspiring specific tremor, lat it be mania, dementia, trauma, depression, anger, humour, love and so.

"During the time of the Wild Elves, the Bisnensel Clan were patrons of Hyrma Mora, the Demon of Dark Knowledge and Caas. After their war with the Gbalites, few of their elders were cursed with vampirism. They were wyse enough to kan that the only rite of purification was death, so they drowned themselves within the lake of Halcyon. Al the ill hap ther gan they meet their deep god and he cursed them to be vessels for his black pools. The first Nenidelia or 'Lakedrinkers' were born. Now with the Elves gone and hiding, the foul rituals were passed to the Primeval Seekers of Bangkorai who continue to birth mo fiends. Find the Lakedrinkers thin and weak of body, pale and golden-yen. Their feet are hands are always webbed and neck-gilled for swimming and water breath. These fiends, doon note, are harmed neither sun ne moon, but moot dwell near waters. Drinking nat fro the body, they feed through the psyche, absorbing memories and knowledge till their victims are mindless husk, though elders are talent enough to feed without the victim's awareness. With that, the magick of memoria and illusions aid them in hiding. Best gyse to end their curse is to hi..."
