Vampire

Vampires are mysterious beings who consume blood in the Toaru Majutsu no Index universe.

Appearance
Unlike vampires in other fiction, the vampires in the series look and act like any normal human being, in fact they are probably not aware that they are vampires until they are within range with someone who has the Deep Blood ability as they are attracted to it which Himegami Aisa posseses, in which case they will try to bite that person and try to consume that person's blood, they are immediately killed shortly afterwards.

Abilities
It is unknown what abilities vampires posses as all vampires who are revealed immediately die after coming into contact with someone who has Deep Blood. However Aureolus Izzard states that vampires are immortal as is the reason why he uses Himegami Aisa, so that he can capture one and study how a vampire's brain works. Because vampires are immortal but can store millenias of information in their brains, he wanted to use the information that he will gain to help index expand her brains capacity so that a reset would never be needed. But unfortunately for him the resets were a lie and was only done to protect the secrets of the grimoirres

Plot
The magicians in the series have yet to ascertain their existence since they are like normal human beings, Himegami Aisa having Deep Blood who is the only person revelead to have ever met vampires as vampires die immediately after appearing before her. Since vampires are still humans and the fact that people close to her have died as they were actually vampires, Himegami Aisa has great disdain for her powers and desire not have someone die because of her blood as such that is the reason why she went to Academy City so that she can find a way to remove it, however the method could not be found as such she settled for a compromise, she allows Aureolus Izzard to use her to attract a vampire as he needed it to save Index, and that at least her ability was used to save someone.
