Let's take a look at another example of the undead. These
undead are a good deal cooler than zombies (sorry, zombies) because they have
cool super-powers and are usually immortal. In the lore of the Whoniverse,
"Vampire" is a label mistakenly assigned to one of several different species of
aliens. One species, present at one time in Venice, are actually called Saturnynians.
They are a race of fish-people who fled to Venice through cracks in space and
time. When wearing perception filters, they look completely human. Like
vampires, they are incredibly strong, feed on blood and hate the sun.
The other race of creatures often mistaken for vampires are
the Haemovores. These are far closer to the actual vampire myth. They are super
strong and able to climb perpendicular walls with ease. They are also
impervious to bullets and love to drink blood. A stake through the heart's
enough to take care of them. Get on that, Buffy.
