Cool, so they are basically like many of the Alaskan innuit tribes who drink seal and elk blood as a means of survival?
Also, what makes them un-human? Are they simply genetically inviable (such as mules and some breeds of cat and dog)? Or do they possess traits that one would not label as 'normally human'? Can they breed with humans (ie: does the DNA in their zygotes match closely enough in order to fit together and produce an embryo?)?
Genuinely curious. [/QUOTE] H dude, I have lived in alaska, and the Innuit do NOT survive solely on the blood, they use every ounce of the animals they catch...they have to, they live in some of the harshest climates on the planet and they do not gain any supernatural powers from drinking that blood.
