I'm mulling over some ideas for a vampire story, and I wanted to get a grasp on some physical basics, like how much liquid the human stomach can hold at a time, and how much blood loss it takes to be fatal; ie whether a vampire really could kill in a single feeding.
I also want to understand blood loss better: What the victim would experience physically and mentally as they're gradually drained, and what state they'll be in if they survive a substantial but non-fatal loss.
