Vampire

Vampires are a type of Undead, who are only distinguishable from humans when feeding, as their sharpened canines become visible and their irises turn red. They are required to stay out of the sun, for if they do not their skin will begin to burn until they eventually turn to ash. They’re usually pale due to this. This race sustains themselves off of blood. Most animal blood tastes foul and bland, whereas Humanoid blood is pretty flavorful and is what most Vampires drink. Some Vampires, willing to take a risk, will go for Faerie blood instead, since it is the most delicious blood type to them. Humans and Faeries can get turned into a Vampire through a bite of another Vampire. Vampires do have the ability to control who they turn and who they do not when feeding. Vampirism can be passed down through genetics if both parents are turned.

Vampirism comes with many perks. Vampires’ five senses are enhanced, they can move much faster and are much stronger than Humans, and have the ability to Compel. Compulsion can be used on all other races, except for Werewolves, to manipulate people into doing what they want. Vampires’ primary weaknesses are sunlight, stakes to the heart (or just the removal of their heart from their chest), and vervain. They can be found all over Terrasyn, but in more recent years the southern and western parts of Mydia has become a hotspot for them, most likely due to the Mages of Traevia running them out. Though vampires are powerful, they are also one of the most hunted races in Terrasyn because of how much of a threat they are.
