Tier 1
This is a basic vampire. Its skin is smooth, devoid of hair. It retains the hair on its head, but not eyebrows, eyelashes, nose hairs, ear hairs. Their skin is thin, lacking in blood vessels. Their body temperature is lower than the normal persons, giving them an aversion to colder temperatures. This results in the majority of them only venturing forth in daylight to find food, blood. This type of plague feeds on mainly hemoglobin, and needs an outside source of unmutated DNA. Their eyes are often blood shot, and they are relatively quick. They are thinner than their Human dimensions, paler of skin and weighing less.
Tier 2
These are vampires that have regained their voluntary functions as in the zombies, and will be in the werewolves. They can now control their hunger, as the mutagen is slowing considerably. They still crave blood, but can control it. They exude a sweet smell that attracts uninfected and numbs their senses. This evolved for feeding purposes, and cannot be controlled. it it exuded in the breath and from small glands on the neck. When a vampire reaches this stage, its healing factor is double that of a human. They weigh less and are colder than a normal human, their frame altering little from tier 1 except thinning more.
Tier 3 This is the pinnacle of the Vampire evolution. This is the ultimate form that the "HIV Cure" has created. They average on height around eight feet. Their fingers have lengthened and have reached extreme length with arms. They are more lithe and more hunched. They exude a sickly sweet smell from more glands over their body. They can now control when the pheromone is excreted. The are more intelligent, seeking out and selecting humans for demise. They are extremely aggressive. Their teeth are usually stained from the blood they feed on. They are a darker Grey. Due to the mutation, the Hypothalamus has lost part of its control on Body Temperature. They sleep at night and are more active during the day when temperatures rise. Which means that they cannot survive drastic changes in temperature, because they cannot regulate their body temperature. At this stage their healing factor is two and a half a normal humans. They are now emaciatedly skinny, with back facing serrated teeth. Their tongue has evolved into a type of fleshy tube like proboscis, its end tipped with piercing barbs. It uses this to feed.

as a human you can cook and eat vampire meat, but if not cooked properly you can become infected. Vampires and zombies require a lower cooking temperature, as thier specific plagues cannot handle heat well.

While feeding a Tier 2&3 vampire has chemicals in their saliva that thins and clots blood. The anticoagulant they use is similar in stricter to Hementin en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hementin, a substance found in the Giant Amazon Leech. Their clotting chemical is similar in composition to Prothrombin en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prothrombin and the chemical used by Horse Shoe crabs to clot blood. Their standing height is about the height of a normal human, so as better to blend with their prey. Their teeth eventually form into hooks to grab their prey and keep them there. They can leap six feet from standing, they can lift on average 100 pounds more than the normal human, depending on their stature. Thats 250lbs. Their eyes are usually the same color as when they were human. They have sensory pits www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Crocodilia#Sensory_organs Around their eyes, around their mouth, on the tops of their shoulders, and a few cresting their buttox. They are evolved perfectly to track down the warmblooded prey which they seek.
