[ A sadly familiar tale, then. Like Lestat, and Claudia, and countless others. Louis, at least, had known his murderer. ]
The turning is not easy, but it is not the problem. When faced with the prospect of eternity as a vampire, some cannot cope. They end themselves rather than live as a monster. As for the rest.. like vermin, we fight over the scraps we can steal from mortals. We go to war and kill each other. All a vampire truly needs to fear is other vampires.
Few are able to live for more than a handful of centuries. I'm considered ancient for surviving 500 years, though it's a small scraping from the time ahead.
