A small booklet written by Peter Walsh, using a pseudonym 'Camera Flash'
1st Edition written shortly after session 8
The Book is titled 'On Consentualists & feeding in Vampire Society - A brief analysis' Small Excepts from the book read as follows
'It appears that although one of the major vampire 'sects', the 'Camarilla', prohibit public 'feeding', it happens nonetheless. Even more worryingly, it appears that they seemed to have developed an apathy for policing their own kind, with humans being punished for the flagrant actions of a few vampires, only ever taking action against one of their own when the 'cleanup' is too difficult.
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 appear 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 this victim is an 'easy target' or previously been fed upon.
Unlike popular fiction, like Blade, there appears 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 would beg the question on 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

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