@@treystephens4490 theres actually quite a few different types of vampires from mythology and folklore around the world. Not all of them are reanimated corpses or drink blood, like some feed on much more abstract things like your ambitions. Dracula and nearly every vampire you see in pop culture are based off the strigoi of eastern europe... but even in eastern europe alone theres much more than just the strigoi; theres also the the shtriga, striges, vrykolakas, izcacus, moroi, pricolici, the list goes on for days just in europe. And when you talk about asia, the list is even more extensive, with things like Jiang-shi from china and japan (who feed on qi), and Vetalas from India, who feed on prana.

Maybe he did, but realized that their biology might have been too difficult to understand in some way.

[@wolfbane7497]

Plagueis was not an idiot they have a home planet the anzati do have a home planet and it is in the records. But going to the planet is like literally turning yourself into a Sunday and spring yourself with whipped cream and telling everyone come get me. Plagueis would have been outnumbered and it would have. been too much of a risk and too much of a danger to try to capture one. Because remember they are Masters at hiding in him trying to be bait to capture one of these things is not advisable. Because they can kick Jedi's asses play as may have been powerful but he wasn't stupid either. Trying to get tangled up with these Force vampires would not have been a good idea and trying to capture. one would have been more trouble than it was worth. So I'm just going to assume that he just didn't want to take the risk. And go through all the hassle of doing this.

“Commonly told to younglings as a scary folklore before bedtime” Wait a minute, why would the jedi want to scare their padawans with scary stories?

The problem with these things hunting jedi or sith is that their hunting methods would never work on masters.

Not officially but I created a character for a KOTOR era role play who is an Anzati sith lord. I call him Darth Aeion. He is a narcissistic genius who is obsessed with staying in his physical prime. He uses a special technique combining his facial tentacles and Sith magic to stay forever young by draining the youth out of his victims. He blends in with the rest of the galaxy pretending to be a traveling archaeologist and sometimes business man.

Me too. After what happened with Karkko, the Jedi Order should have never accepted any force sensitive Anzati ever again. An Anzati on its own is bad enough. But if another Anzati Jedi decides to try feasting on the "soup", they could become someone even worse than Karkko.
