Ageless

Ageless and undying so long as they partook of the blood of other
creatures, the vampires remembered a civilization the human race could
not, and they knew exactly how to rebuild it. Before the nuclear war, the
vampires had contacted others of their kind who lurked in dark places
around the globe. They had a hidden super-power source that they’d
secretly developed in fallout shelters of their own design, along with the
absolute minimum machinery required to reconstruct civilization after the
absolute worst came to pass.

But that’s not to say they were the ones who caused the nuclear war.
Through cryptesthesia, the black arts, and psychic abilities mankind never
guessed they’d cultivated, the vampires simply knew when the human race
would destroy itself and how they, the vampires, could restore order to the
world
