*Fall into blood-rages when not drinking enough blood and will die of starvation
*Not as strong or as fast as the vampires
*Can be killed by fire, starvation, beheading or the sister daggers
*Havidens are sterile, cannot produce children
*Havidens are only made when a human drinks the tears of a vampire which kills the human soul, turning the human into a haviden, or when a vampire and a human who carries a specific yet unknown gene conceive a child together. This is rare
*Female havidens can put their victims in a “love trance” to lure them in. While in this trance, the human does and says whatever the haviden wants. The haviden must look into the eyes of their victim for the trance to take place

*Can cast thoughts into the vampires and havidens minds if the demon has made physical contact
*Can cause nightmares among the humans
*Have a heart, but it is made up of energy and not a physical organ. The demon can survive without it, but is weakened and will have to feed on other souls to survive

*Upper-level demons can’t be killed
*Come from a tear between hell and Earth
*Unable to walk on holy ground
*Can control anyone who isn’t human once they fully trust the demon
Autumn (human reincarnation of a vampire):
*17 years old
*Green eyes, light-ash blond hair with a white streak
*Once Latresma’s vampire soul inside Autumn awakens, her right eye turns blue like Latresma’s, and a blood-aura appears around her that anyone who isn’t human can see. She can then see and use the spells in Latresma’s spell book with the Lost Craft.
