Vampires



Vampires are the product of an accident that happened when The Dark Lord favored and cared for a woman who didn’t see her as a monster. This woman became her friend but was struck down by Humans for betraying her kind. In a last ditch effort, The Dark Lord used her blood to heal her friend. It seemed to be too late until she returned to the world of the living. Things seemed to be normal for the pair until Humans began to go missing or were found in pieces. It turned out that being brought back from the dead with The Dark Lord's blood had turned her friend into a blood thirsty beast, and the very first vampire, known as the Original.

Over time the woman became the queen of her species, loyal to her old friend, those she had sired, and those who had been turned and became her subjects. Her army, with a burning hatred for the living.

Strengths

 * Vampires have increased strength, speed, and stamina compared to regular Humans. This becomes more apparent with age.
 * Vampires have access to more powerful magic than Humans, as well as deeper mana reserves.
 * Vampires have an impressive healing factor when well fed.

Weaknesses

 * Vampires are naturally weaker in sunlight: while it is not fatal for Vampires to walk around in the sun without special amulets or magical tattoos conjured by mages, it is definitely not preferable.
 * Vampires are very prideful creatures and unable to accept defeat until it happens. This makes them very narrow minded and prone to tunnel-vision in combat if they let their pride get in the way.
 * A Vampire's body, if they do not feed on blood, will slowly begin to shut down and become weaker. Eventually they will wither and deteriorate until they reach a mummified state. One of the worst fates for a vampire is to be starved.

Diet + Habitat
Vampires can eat any food they desire, as their organs still work as intended, provided that they have had a good amount of Human blood, be that from willing donors or unlucky victims.

They may be found in The Dark Lord’s City, as it is the only place in Broken Incindiar that has a reasonable temperature, along with its own atmosphere, which is safe enough for Vampires to roam freely without being burnt to a crisp unless of course they have magical protection. However, it is more common to find Vampires in Ormagöden’s City.
