What does matter is that this clan of black clad youths has a few features that make them most suitable of all other clans to harvest. Essentially they are a pack of loners, they reject society, but still feel the need to belong so they gather together in pubs and clubs where their outlandish costumes and makeup is accepted and embraced. They want to be left alone as long as they are all left alone together. Once in the club they are a strong united force, don't ever try to take them on, the pack mentality is just as strong in humans as it is in animals. However outside on their way to the club (don't wait for them to leave, you will need to be safe in your daytime shelter before they will be leaving) you will have ample opportunities to hunt.
Many of them are death obsessed anyway. It was the strangest feeling the first time someone didn't struggle and fight, just waited for death to wash over them. I tell you it had me unnerved for days. Another thing most of them are also captivated with us. You will be surprised how many books, films (moving pictures if you haven't encountered them before) and music has been created round us. Most of it rubbish of course, but some? I sometimes think one or two of us may be pushing the bounds of confidentiality to feed an already overgrown ego, or maybe they are just trying to set the record straight. You must be strong and not reveal yourself until the final moments of death. The ego rush that you got from their adulation and worship, would be nothing compared to the torture and suffering you would endure when the rest of the us (especially the elders) got hold of you.
One of the disadvantages of this group is the amount of chemical stimulants they pump into their bodies, be warned the effects are transferable in the blood, its not dangerous just unsettling when you don't know what is happening.
Dawn is approaching so I must cease here. I trust you have found a safe shelter to rest though the daylight hours. I will contact you in person soon to bring you up to date on many of the fantastic advances that have occurred that are of great benefit to us. Until then
May the moon guard you as you hunt
and may the dawn never shine in your eyes.
Yours
Cato
