Third Generation Proto Vampire

Description

A first concept for my Proto-Vampires/Primal Vampires featured in my story.

No one knows the exact date that the first Vampire was ever created but it is theorized to have been somewhere around anywhere from 70,000 all the way to 160,000 years ago. The Vampires of those days were as different from modern ones as Neanderthals were to modern man, more so in fact. They were large, savage beasts not much more intelligent then animals. As humans evolved so did the Vampire, this also due to the virus becoming more and more diluted through the ages. As more intelligent, "civilized" Vampires began to take shape they realized that the uncontrollable hunger of their less evolved kin would potentially lead to the extinction of their food sources and thus they turned on their ancestors and began eliminating them. This was also due to their own safety as it was around this time that humans were starting to evolve enough to pose a threat to the Vampires, mainly due to how vulnerable they are during the day. The Vampires knew that in order to protect themselves they would have to be careful and cautious, something the Proto-Vampires weren't very good at.

It was around this time that a group of Shamans (In an effort to defend their tribe against the "Blood Demons") learned to summon forth powerful spirits (Angels) and fuse their essence and power into the bodies of their tribe's warriors. This was the original "Ragnarok Organization" and from that day would continue an unending war against the Vampires (and other Supernatural Creatures) down through the ages. Over time the "Ragnarok Organization" slowly became power hungry and greedy, this cost them their ability to fuse with the power of Angels however with their amassed resources they continued to pose a threat to Vampires. Despite no longer being able to channel the powers of the Angels on rare occasions there would be those born with angelic abilities, the powers being dormantly passed down through the ages to them. A notable example of this being a man named Van Helsing, a high ranking warrior of the RO who was born with abilities beyond that of any normal human.

Abilities:

In this particular stage of the Vampire Evolution they no longer are capable of flight however their powerful back legs allow for tremendous jumping capabilities. They are far stronger, larger and more ferocious then Modern Vamps but are also far less intelligent. Sunlight is the easiest way to kill them as their tough skin makes beheading or staking rather difficult for those who don't posses above-human levels of strength.

They usually walk in a hunched over position and communicate with a series of grunts and growls.

Cain actually encounters three of these beasts which had managed to escape their genocide brought on by the more evolved Vampires long long ago. They had escaped when a cave in trapped them deep underground and was accidentally stumbled upon by a group of human Archaeologists in present day. The fact that they had managed to survive without blood for dozens of thousands of years was a testament in itself to their strength, however they were rather emaciated and just barely had enough strength to capture the humans who attempted to flee. After their accidental release they went on a murder spree in the town nearby, regaining more and more strength the more they fed. From all the time spend in the total darkness of the cave they had become blind yet their already superhuman hearing and sense of smell were further advanced.

My Proto-Vamps were inspired by the UberVamps from Buffy and their look was inspired by Neanderthals (Though vastly more muscular) while their faces are inspired by the Vampires from 30 days of night. The way their jaws open up was inspired by the Reapers from Blade 2.
The sketch next to it is just an idea of what its maw might look like when fully opened, though I think its actually supposed to be bigger then that.
