A friend and I already had that encounter twice. We found it once near
Mirkwood and once east of the Sea of Rhun (both times with Free People
characters). It is a vampire!

Our reactions:
INTERROGATE: escape with one health
WAIT: my character was also attacked, but won (my challenge rank: 78),
losing four health

I suppose FLEE is the best answer
