Of the newer youkai that have emerged only within the last few centuries, vampires are among the strongest of them, strong enough to take part in the power-balance of Gensokyo (*1) by now. |

During the day they spend their time in their mansion, and once night comes they become active; they are the Lords of the Night. |

Their main diet is human's blood. Those who are sucked to death will neither die nor become a ghost; they will move around as a zombie for a while, then evaporate under sunlight. |

They went on a rampage when they first appeared in Gensokyo, lost against powerful youkai, and a settlement was reached as they finally made a contract (*2). |

The details of this contract are that the youkai will offer them humans from which to feed (*3); in return, the vampires will not attack humans living in Gensokyo. |

Of course, even now, the contract remains in effect. |

Vampires have marvelous physical performance and magical power: they are able to lift up a thousand-year-old tree single-handedly, to run through a human village within the blink of an eye, to summon many demons with a single word, to dissolve themselves into bats or even a pale mist to intrude into anywhere, and they can recover even when their body is blown away in a night, as long as their head is undamaged. |

Some youkai have abilities similar to each of these, but only vampires are known to possess all of them. |

This makes them very fascinating. |

However, perhaps due to their extraordinary abilities, they have many weaknesses. |

First, they are weak against sunlight, so they are docile during the day. |

Neither can they go across flowing water, so they are docile on rainy days. Also, they can't cross rivers. |

They can't approach a sardine head or a shattered holly branch. |

For someone as powerful as a vampire, they are usually forbidden to directly assault humans. |

So, they aren't so dangerous even if you happen to face one. |

Instead, they usually choose to cause a disaster that affects the whole of Gensokyo. |

Aside from these times, vampires are relatively gentle and polite. |

They pose little threat in such case. |

But that doesn't mean you should anger them. |

You shouldn't do something that strikes one of their weaknesses, even by accident. |
