The Primordial Curse Image

Your understanding and research into the vampiric and occult, alongside the primordial blood, running within your veins, has granted you new understanding into the genetic makeup, and flaws of the curse of Vampirism.

You may share a drop of your blood with any willing vampiric creature, to ‘enhance’ their curse. While under this enhancement, they no longer suffer from the ‘common’ drawbacks of vampirism - they may roam in the sun without any drawback, their bodily functions return, their emotions and senses return, garlic/leek is no longer innately harmful to them, etcetera. The extent of this enhancement differs, depending upon the source and symptoms of vampirism in any given realm.

Though, the power does not come without a price - rather than suppressed, their emotions become more volatile, and unstable, reacting to nearby elements. They are no longer immortal in the traditional sense, however, their aging is greatly slowed - gaining a lifespan, similar to that of an elf. Fire provokes further rage, thunder anxiety, cold sadness, etcetera. Rather than blood, they gain the ability to feast upon emotionally-charged lifeforce - through sinking their fangs into a creature like before, they may drain the very life-force for them responsible for fueling their emotions, such as anger or sadness. When drained in this way, the creature affected can no longer experience the corresponding emotion for 48 Hours, and the vampires own ability to control that emotion becomes greatly enhanced. The stronger the emotion in the fed upon creature, the more nourishment it provides. A vampire affected by this curse must feast in this way atleast once a week. Finally, while shadows and reflections of yourself do return, they do not behave normally - always appearing distorted, or actively 'glitching', as if they were some demonic or draconic entity.

You also feel an instinctual urge to hunt down and destroy any unnatural balance any realm you enter may hold.

Alternatively, your blood may be bestowed upon the remains of a Vampire, Dhampir, Sanguinius Nobilis, or similar Undead race, to resurrect them, as per the Resurrection spell. Additionally, once per (IRL) month, you may undergo a ritual with any one willing participant. You may run a deadly++ quest, to potentially undo or bring in the curse - either retraining the race of the specified individual into a dhampir or sanguinius nobilis, or out of, back into their original Humanoid race, upon quest success.
