You have been infected by a vampire tied to the city of Saakanir, the city of undeath. Your vampirism compels you to feed upon the blood of those living, and your thirst is sated for longer than most. Your hunger is not tied exclusively to the blood of mortal beings around you, allowing you to consume regular food and drink, though the tastes pale in comparison and never seem to quite fill you. Once per short rest, when you consume the blood of a mortal being, you can tap into the memories that flow throughout it. You are also able to cast "Vampiric Touch" once per short rest without expending a spell slot.
