Hello there! You said questions were welcome, I have a few. Don't feel like you have to answer any, they're motivated by curiosity rather than a burning desire for immediate knowledge. Depending on the answers, however, the following ones may be.

1) Many cultures have mythological or ancestral notions of vampiric creatures that suck blood/energy/mana/lifeforce, through various means and methods (Incubi, Lamia, Sidhe...). Were psychic vampires the inspiration for these ideas, or are they independant concepts? Do you have anything to do with blood? Or undeath?

2) What do you do with the psychic energy "stolen"? Is it simply a necessity for basic biological functions, or is it a form of pleasure?

3) Do you feel guilt over using your powers? Does feeding off of someone's joy make them sad?
