Q&A

Where would a vampire-like creature get its energy from?

+0
−0

My main character is based on the basic concept of a vampire. That she needs blood to survive.

She was genetically engineered to digest "˜blood' instead of eating. She still needs to drink water. Where she varies from a vampire is that it isn't real blood, it just mimics the idea of it, so it's basically a synthetic replica with different doses of nutrients suited to her etc.

Although, she does eat some human food and drink now and again when she fancies and she smokes. This is possible because she still has all working internal systems just like a human etc.

But where would she get her energy from? Because a human eats food for energy to perform basic functions. Would it be possible to obtain it from her "˜blood'?
