Sorcerer
Base Class: Sorcerer

One night down a misty alleyway you are approached by a tall figure in a black cloak. Their eyes speak of both danger and beauty drawing you in closer as your senses dull. When you awaken you have fundamentally changed, forever hungering for the blood of the living to fuel your new found magical abilities.

Cursed Fate

Few choose to walk the path of darkness. Choose or randomly determine how you ended up becoming vampire kin.

Vampire Magic

You learn additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown on the Vampire Spells table. Each spell counts as a sorcerer spell for you, but it doesn't count against the number of sorcerer spells you know. These spells can't be replaced when you gain a level in this class. 

Vampire Spells

  • 1st    charm person, inflict wounds

  • Your creature type is both Humanoid and Undead
  • You have a darkvision up to 30ft
  • You have resistance to poison damage and advantage on saving throws against being poisoned

Vampiric Evolution

At 1st level, as you cast spells you begin to manifest more and more vampiric traits. When you cast a sorcerer spell using a spell slot of 1st level or higher you gain an amount of Blood Points equal to the level of the spell slot used. Once the total number of Blood Points you have gained equals or exceeds a threshold, as listed in the Vampiric Traits table, you gain access to a new feature until you finish a long rest. When you gain or recover a spell slot, your Blood Point total is reduced by an amount equal to the level of the spell slot recovered, possibly reducing your vampiric traits. Certain vampiric traits have minimum sorcerer level requirements, as listed in the table. When you gain the Font of Magic feature at 2nd level, any sorcery points spent cause to gain an amount of Blood Points equal to the Sorcery Points spent.

Life Drinker

Finally, at 1st level, your fanged bite is a natural weapon, which counts as a simple melee weapon with which you are proficient. You add your Charisma modifier to the attack and damage rolls when you attack with your bite. Your bite deal 1d4 piercing damage on a hit. While you are missing half or more of your hit points, you have advantage on attack rolls you make with this bite. When you use your bit and hit a creature that isn't a Construct or an Undead, you can empower yourself in one of the following ways of your choice:

  • You gain Blood Points equal to the damage you deal.
  • You gain Hit Points equal to the damage you deal.
