    I can’t remember specifics, but I feel like he was… And his “children” that look school age just go to school for a few years in each location they live so they can better blend in. Although honestly he may only have been a doctor so he could steal blood easily, now that I’m thinking about it. I read and watched them all in their heyday, didn’t leave much of a mark on me clearly.

      No. They drink animal (deer i think) blood. It makes them weaker and gives them golden eyes, instead oft the red eyes. Its a whole plot point in one of the later books.

      It was a major plot point that none of the ones in Edward’s “family” drank human blood. You could tell if a given vampire did or didn’t based on their eye color. Human blood made them red.
