I had heard about the existence of vampires in 0.34.11, but I had not expected to actually get one.
He had killed one of my dwarves, no witnesses of course, but the whole blood drained remark did make me check the wiki.

It was a shame that before I manage to place him under permanent Bookkeeper/Manager duty behind forbidden and locked doors he managed to drain a second victim (a legendary miner, good thing I had 6 others).

There are indeed many ways of locating a vampiric dwarf.
Easy to spot ingame:

 Lack of emotions about bedroom, dining room, chairs or whatever.

Easy to determine if you have one in your fort using DT:

 A vampire does not show up in the dwarf list of DT. Which makes the total number of dwarves ingame different then in DT.

They do show up, but under their real name.

For me it was different.

I actually had 1 dwarf less in my DT then I had ingame. Compared both lists in u screen ingame and DT. In the end I came up 1 short and this truly was the vampire.

Ok, my info is from 34.07, perhaps this has changed in the new version of DT.

It was my first and so far only encounter with vampires... Only the future will tell if and how vampires will try to sneak in my future fortresses to drain my legendary dwarfs.
