[[Summary::A vampire is an unliving mockery of life that lives by cruelly consuming the blood of the innocent.]] Only characters slain by a vampire's Constitution Drain rise as vampires, and even then only if they have 5 hit dice or more. Characters with less hit dice become monstrous vampire spawn and do not retain their abilities.

'''Type:''' The character's type changes to Undead and the character's former type becomes a subtype with the "augmented" modifier. The character also gains the Dark Minded and Unliving subtypes.

'''Hit Dice:''' The character's Hit Dice, BAB, Saves, and skills are all unaffected.

'''Ability Scores:''' The character gains a +2 bonus to his Strength and Charisma.

'''Alignment:''' The character's alignment changes to Evil.

'''Special Attacks:''' The character can drain blood from a helpless or willing victim, inflicting 2 points of Constitution Drain per round. The character heals 5 points for each point of Constitution drain in this way, and consuming 4 points of Constitution from intelligent creatures is considered enough "food" for one day (and the vampire gains no sustenance from any other food). Humanoids slain by this Constitution Drain may rise as vampires or vampire spawn (though the character has no control over them unless granted by another ability).

'''Special Qualities:''' The character gains Turn Resistance +2. The character suffers 2d6 damage and is considered staggered every round he is exposed to direct sunlight. This damage cannot be healed by any means until the character is in a place with no light at all (such as a coffin). A vampire character is vulnerable to Light effects.
