Izrem Verin'Vlos had always despised the vampire. A self-absorbed and loathsome beast; sipping at the Spring of Immortality that undeath provided, but never returning anything to the Void and the power that sustained them. Disgusting creatures... all of them. But Izrem had learned long ago that it was not the men and women that fell to its curse that was to blame, but indeed the curse itself. For years had he worked in his dispersed and hidden laboratories, attempting to concoct a plan to save the fallen and restore them to a place of humilty. Indeed, it was something he knew they needed.

Sifting through numerous tomes of forgotten lore and channeling the unbridled and infinite magic essence of the Void and Entropy, Izrem pushed his research of Entropic Warding and Mana Field Cancellation to the limits. Each day he built upon the previous successes and failures, all in the search of this final and ultimate method of doing what others might have called impossible. His knowledge grew, his experiments bore fruit, his own power waxed with his rising ambition until at last... he had done it.

Making use of hidden agents within multiple vampire covens and enclaves, he released his greatest creation. By making use of particular mana and essence patterns within all vampires, he could effectively block the blood-borne impurities by using his own contra-pattern to dissolve their forms and render then inert, eventually denying and relieving the host of the effects of Vampirism! He named it the Vrolock Anti-Mortification Process: the Sanguination Triage Dissonance effect. Or V.A.M.P. S.T.D. for short. The rate of infection insured a 100% spread amongst all vampiric strains within hours, and a 100% de-Morbidization of all vampires, reverting them to their human forms. The results were inevitable and irreversible. No vampire could become one again after returning to human form. Izrem had made sure of that. He leaned back in his chair, weary but proud of his achievements. There was literally no stopping it now. The work was done. Vampirism was gone.

As a side effect he had noted that his concoction also caused a roughly 50% reversion rate amongst all Lycanthropes to their human base as well. Well... 15% to their human base, 35% to a corpse. But those were results that Izrem could live with. After all, even Stonegate would be willing to give the lives of many of their own for the sake of wiping out vampirism, wouldn't they?

"I mean, they're Vampires, right? Euch!"

Izrem awoke suddenly; his eyelids flashing open. The dream seemed to recede quickly as his the blackened orbs that were his eyes came into focus. It was the first dream he had had in years and it was marvelous. Still rousing from his slumber, he turned to look at his journal. April 1st... he had a feeling that the date meant something to the rivven, but he couldn't be bothered to put much thought into it.

Laying back down and rolling over, he let his mind wander once more as it searched for impossible formulas and secret answers.
