"The body goes under many changes when crossing over, the majority of which are beneficial including sensory enhancements and possessing an Extra. However there are two major changes which have distinctly negative effects. The first change is the reason why vampires are hematophagous (feed on blood), and that is that the body loses the ability to produce red blood cells, which carry oxygen to all parts of the body. The average red blood cell will live for approximately a month, and thus a vampire's supplies of fresh blood must be replenished at roughly the same interval. The other major 'down side' to becoming a vampire is that the skin develops an intense sensitivity to sunlight and absolutely any exposure to sunlight can cause Sunburn and eventually death. It is therefore essential that vampires are only active during the hours of the night and have light-proof shelter during the day."
