Thin Blood: the weakest of all vampires yet possessing the weakest of all the curses as well. Sunlight only gives them exceptionally bad sunburns. It is possible to actually eat food, although it generally does not come out well in the end. The hidden memories of vampires in their lineage can show up in their dreams, in the strange hours of daytime when the faintest trace of life pulses through their brains.
