[QUOTE="Endur, post: 3122113, member: 3346"] Libris Mortis talks about undead hungers by using two descriptions, Inescapable Craving and Diet Dependent. LM actually applies both descriptions to vampires, Inescapable Craving for Life Force (energy drain) and Diet Dependent (blood/con drain). With Diet Dependence for blood drain, a vampire could drain blood once a week and be ok. With Inescapable Craving for Life Force, a vampire would want to drain life force every day. Inescapable Craving does not sound like the careful vampire we are talking about, but diet dependence could be a careful vampire that hunts a village over time. Assuming that our vampire does not suffer from inescapable craving, but does blood drain (d4 con) on one villager a week... one villager a month dies ... that's a dozen villagers a year. And less than a dozen if the vampire manages to bite some travelers and strangers. [/QUOTE]
