Notes

Much of this was to give an actual medical name for vampiric starvation and the effects it has on a vampires body. My research led me to a real life condition with a similar way of functioning and I knew that my vampire Mara, would be assumed to have that condition. Creating this condition involved a mix of research into the real life form of anemia I had found, as well as the effects of starvation in humans.
