Thank you for taking the time to read my story The Vampire Tyrant. Now I have been getting some comments about how my story is a little bit confusing so I decided to make this little guide that explains the world in The Vampire Tyrant. I would recommend reading some of the chapters first and refer to this as your guide because this guide contains a lot of spoilers so unless you want to know everything before hand, then go right ahead and read it. Now this guide will get added on to because I didn't want to put too much spoilers in about future chapters. If there is anything you don't understand and you want me to clarify, then IM and I will try to update the guide so that you can understand it better. This story officially begins on the second chapter which is really the first chapter of this story. I hope you guys find this guide helpful and I also hope you enjoy this story.

Races
Familiar: Familiars are considered traitors to the human society as they work as agents for the vampire in exchange for their life.
Humans: Humans are considered one of the newest races which were created by Steve and Sherry's children.
Soul Suckers: Consists of Succubus, Incubus, and Vixen (Humans like creatures that are just like mortals except that when they have children, they can give birth to another vixen). All Soul Suckers are born as Vixen's and when they come of age they could choose to be a Soul Sucker (Succubus or Incubus) or continue to be a Vixen. Soul Suckers, unlike any other creatures that need blood, need sex. They are known for seducing humans to have sex with them and magic. Humans dubbed them the name witches which led them to being executed and their race became extinct except for Sherry and Claire.
Vampires: Vampires are considered one of the first two original races on Earth. Vampires drink blood from animals in order to keep them sane and turning into killing machines. Vampires often live in clans and all clans are ruled by an Overlord. In order to preserve their traditions, their oldest vampire becomes known as the Grand Elder, which teaches the vampires their ways. Vampires are well known for protecting the human race even though they hate them for trying to kill their race. There are not many clans left due to the mass killing of them and to the humans, the only known clan is the Blackrock Vampires.
Werewolves: (I can't reveal any information as of now because it would create too many spoilers and ruin some of the suspense.)
Zombies: Zombies are considered one of the first two original races on Earth. Zombies have no form of government except for believing in their God, Khaine, and only listen to their primal instincts which are eating. They only exist when viral outbreaks occur because they are often killed by humans and or vampires.
