VAMPIRIC BLOOD DISEASE was only discovered four decades ago. Those afflicted with this illness were, of course, dubbed Vampires. These beings had unusual control over every part of their body in horrible and horrific ways. Growing extra bones, flesh regeneration, even tendrils. Human blood and bodies feed this ability. It's a Vampire's only source of sustenance.
IN 1997, America formed the Vampire Containment Initiative— an organization dedicated to studying and exterminating those infected with Vampiric Blood Disease.
IT IS NOW 2025. Cipriano Vargas recently graduated from a VCI academy in El Paso, Texas. He is on the Vermilion Task Force… also known as the weakest task force in El Paso County.
ALMOST NOBODY KNOWS he was born female.
