High Blood

Divine Ancestor (神祖) refers to the original race created by Veldanava to populate the earth. Humans, Demi-Humans, and Vampires can all trace their roots back to the Ancestor.

Properties
They have no need for nourishment and can recover their energy by absorbing the life-force of those around them, a trait that was partially inherited by Vampires.

Background
In Veldanava's pursuit of diverse and sentient life he intended to populate the world with a race of immortal spirits bearing flesh. To facilitate this process Veldanava created a singular being, Twilight Valentine, and ordered them to reproduce. Twilight, however, lacked any means of reproduction and had no concept of gender. Doing its best to live up to Veldanava's expectations, Twilight used its intellect to create several races of mortal and flawed men. These races, the Humans and Vampires, as well as deviations like Demi-Humans, were not what Veldanava originally desired but it satisfied him nonetheless. At an unknown point, Twilight finally succeeded and created an existence that could be called its alter ego, a daughter it named Luminous Valentine.
