 The Book is titled 'On Consentualists & feeding in Vampire Society - A brief analysis'
 Small Excerpts from the book read as follows.

+Vampires 'feed' by drinking the blood of either humans, or animals ((Camera Flash (2026). An interview at Night - Redacted Transcript. Norfolk Defence League Publications. p. 3.)). It appears that most vampires either enjoy or find easier the drinking of the blood of humans.

 A vampire appears to feed by grabbing their victim and 'biting' their neck for a period of 5-10 seconds. The victim does not appear able to resist once it has started, either due to being physically immobilised, or otherwise 'disarmed' by chemical or other unknown methods. \\
-Based on some observations, it appears that an act of feeding induces a drug-like state in humans, with some reporting loss of memory for a period before and after the act. Despite interviewing known victims, none of them appears to be aware of being fed upon as a distinct action, and many seemed to be into a form of extreme 'bloodplay' which may be used by vampires as an indication that this victim is an 'easy target' or has previously been fed upon. \\

-Unlike in popular fiction like Blade, there appear to be no visible marks on the victim's neck after 'feeding'. It is unknown by what mechanism the vampire drains blood without puncture wounds, but a few conjectures can be made:

-A. The vampire drains blood with extremely thin teeth, akin to a mosquito. This does not line up with the length of feeding sessions observed.

-B. The vampire drains blood without even piercing the skin; this raises the question of why the vampire simply doesn’t 'feed' from across the room instead of biting their neck.

-C. The vampire drains blood in a way similar to mammalian hematophages such as the Vampire Bat, Vampire Finch & red-billed oxpecker, by piercing the skin and ‘lapping up’ the blood. Alternatively, they could use hollow fangs as a way to drain blood, but this is less likely due to the notable physiological changes it would require over a human.  They would then have to somehow either heal or conceal the wound created. This could be possible with an Astringent ((Brodin, Michael (1998). The Over-The-Counter Drug Book. Simon and Schuster. p. 382. ISBN 978-0-671-01380-6.)).

 TODO: ask john for information about other blood drinking mythical creatures, there might be some explanation in how they hide their bitemarks there.

+Many vampires will claim that, although they consume blood from humans, that they are 'Consentualists'. Consentualism is defined by vampire society as 'Feeding upon those who consent to be fed upon', and the revelation of such feeding habits acts as a way to dismiss the notion of a 'ravenous bloodsucker' who 'drains people dry'. I will argue here that this is nothing more than a manipulation tactic, both towards humans to lull them into a false sense of security and more notably towards the vampire to trick them that they are anything else than a parasite preying on humans who don't know what vampires actually are. From all my observations, I will distil this argument into a few points; //
+  - //Vampires can choose to drink blood from animals but few do. Although animals are not able to give consent, the vast amount of animal blood produced by modern husbandry could sate every vampire on earth, without involving a single unknowing human//
+  - //The act of drinking blood puts the victim in danger, and the risks of such is not explained to them before any act takes place//
+  - //It appears that the act of 'feeding' puts a victim in a trance, almost drug-like, state. This state possibly appears to be almost euphoric and thus possibly has addictive potential.//
+  - // The victim does not seem to remember hours before or after the event, any possible regret and disgust will not be remembered and therefore cannot inform their consent. //
+  - // A few of these events involved tricking or deceiving the victim into leaving a safe area and moving to an isolated area. //
+  - // And finally, most damningly, none of the victims seem to be aware it is a vampire that is preying on them, and none of them had been asked for their consent before being 'fed' on.//
