At the time of Christ, there were over 100 houses of vampires. They lacked true leadership and spent more time fighting amongst themselves. By the time of the first book, there are 21 houses of vampires. The Dhampir is considered the 22nd house.

House Melanthios (Black Lotus) Isolationists, they do not hunt for food, nor kill their food unless they have to. They feed on their humans servants, and build their culture around keeping their servents alive. They possess great magic, including a spell of prolonging the life of their servents, often 2 or 3 times longer. Great magic and protection against magic. They feel that killing during feeding is a measure of immaturity and believes vampires do so as they are addicted to killing. Being a vampire is a responsibility, not a privilege.

House Daygar (former Holy Order of the Day Guard) Created by House Melanthios to give the humans a fighting chance to live.

Jian Zhi (Strong Widsom) Chinese house ruled by a powerful overlord of vampires. Distinct in their powers of manipulating, was able to unite all the houses of vampires to strike against Europe during it's renniscance era.
