Does anyone know much about vampires? Not stories but actual vampires...

I have some questions.

Well, I want to figure out something.

What are they like in your world?

My twin brothers, the Ambarussa, would know more, for Thuringwethil's forces perferred the gloom of the thick woods like their holdings in East Beleriand had.

But what I know... they were lesser maia, mostly, we think, spirits of the world in service of the Enemy. Bat-shaped and bat-winged, with the faces of men and women, they could shapeshift, although that skill I don't know if all possessed. Thuringwethil was one of their chiefs, the Lady of Shadows, and she served as the right hand of Sauron, the Enemy's lieutenant. They could, and did drink blood, and like all the Enemy's creatures they could tolerate sunlight but they loved it not.
