This article is about a race of vampires which fails WP:N as it has not been the subject of significant discussion in reliable sources independent of the subject. The article also fails our guidelines for writing about fiction because it is only described from an in-universe standpoint with no information regarding how it has been discussed in the real world.

Delete/Merge Standalone article inappropriate and not warranted. --Cybercobra (talk) 01:53, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Although it's certainly not from an in-universe perspective, it is not suitable as a standalone article. Putting it into context is the best solution. (The lead clearly establishing it as part of a fictional world and the page goes on to describe its effects on a game. This is all squarely put in reality) - Mgm|^(talk) 11:50, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
