    Though the word vampire had been used to describe them, they were nothing of the kind. The Chosen could not be affected by garlic or icons from the one god. They did not need to sleep in coffins or fear the sunlight. Only the enemies of Ra had to fear the sun god’s rays of light. For he and his men, the sun strengthened them when injured or weak

    He absentmindedly ran his tongue across the sharp fangs inside his mouth. Just as the demons they fought, Ra’s Chosen needed to feed off humans. But instead of souls, they needed their blood to keep them strong. Unlike the undead, the Chosen didn’t kill the ones they drank from.
