Jiangshi
From Jackie Chan Adventures Wiki
The Jiangshi, also known as Chi Vampire, is a Chinese Vampire capable of sucking chi (life energy) out of people and turning them into his vampire slaves.
In an abandoned castle where Uncle was acquiring rare antiques, Jade accidentally awakenes the Jiangshi, which sucks out her, Tohru's and Uncle's chi. In a chi transfusion, Tohru gets a part of Jade's and Jade a part of Uncle's, making the recipient behave much like the donor. But when Uncle himself is affected, no one is available to effect the magic for the transfer, and so Uncle becomes a vampiric slave.
The only way to reclaim the chi is to find a toadstool in a graveyard, place it in the vampire's left sock, and throw it into a river before sunrise; otherwise, it will remain lost forever. The Jiangshi sets out to stop the Chans as soon as it learns of their intentions, but looses its socks and the chis it stole. As the sun rises, the Jiangshi is blasted into dust.
[edit] Powers and abilities
In its weak state, the Jiangshi appears as a pale, emaciated human with pointed ears and fangs. The Jiangshi is capable of sucking out people's chi to strengthen itself. The more chi it gets, the stronger it gets; its physique increases in size and mass, and it gets the capability of speech (in its weakened form, it is mute).
The Jiangshi is blind, so it sniffs to find its target by the smell of its breath; but when it absorbs enough life energy, it can shed its blindness and pursue its victims even more effectively. It is capable of flight, and it states that with enough chi it is even capable of withstanding the sun. Due to the untimely demise of the Jiangshi, however, his statement remains to be verified.
