An excerpt: A vampire can only be created by another vampire. There are rules that govern the making of vampires yet this is a golden rule. You cannot become a vampire without the help of another vampire. It is impossible. The legend of the vampire race goes back to ancient times. It is unclear who the first vampire was but it is common knowledge that the only way to make a fledgling vampire is by a host vampire.
