Order of the Endless Night

The Order of the Endless Night are those that challenge and hunt powerful vampire covens, cleansing captive communities of their dominion. Its members hail from long vampiric lineages, some even descending from noble lines such as that of Strahd von Zarovich, and yet, its members chose to redeem themselves and their family names from the sins of their forefathers. Most of which would find neither rest nor reprieve for their past.

Their name is derived from the eternal hunger that befalls all vampires upon the moment of turning, reflecting their acceptance of their fate. Many of these hunters embrace this curse as duty, channeling its power to do good and resist evil. They undergo relentless training to control their cannibalistic urges and find alternatives to satiate their eternal hunger. Others redirect this hunger to fight the forces of darkness, sometimes inadvertently unleashing themselves upon the innocent in the process.

Vampiric Form

Vampiric Form

Beginning at 7th level, you learn to draw power from the undead blood coursing through your veins. As long as you are not under direct sunlight, you can use a bonus action to transform into a vampire for up to 1 hour. You can use tools and cast spells (if you have any) as normal, but any worn equipment or armor merges into your new form and you gain a base AC of 16, which cannot be increased by armor but you can still use a shield and gain this benefit.

You can revert back to your normal form as a bonus action. You automatically revert back to your normal form if you fall unconscious, drop to 0 hit points, or die.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again.

While charmed, they can move and use their reaction on their own but the only action the creature can take during their turn is the Dodge action unless you use a bonus action on your turn to command it to take another action available to it, which they do on their next turn.

At the end of their turn and every time the creature takes damage, they can repeat the saving throw, ending the curse on a success. The curse automatically ends if the creature falls unconscious, becomes incapacitated, or enters an area affected by the Hallow spell.

Amplify. You roll one hemocraft die and subtract the number rolled from the creature's saving throw made to resist this effect.

Beginning at 15th level, your vampiric hunger reshapes the nature of your Brand of Castigation, making it leech the vitality from its target.

Additionally, once per turn when you deal Crimson Rite damage to a branded target, you gain temporary hit points equal to the roll of your hemocraft die.
