Preternatural Speed. The vampire can use a bonus action to take the Dash or Disengage action.
Regeneration. The vampire regains 15 hit points at the start of its turn if it has at least 1 hit point and isn't in sunlight or running water. If the vampire takes radiant damage or damage from holy water, this trait doesn't function at the start of the vampire's next turn.
Subjugating Gaze. As a bonus action, the vampire fixes its gaze on a creature it can see within 30 feet of it. If the target can see the vampire, the target must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or the vampire has advantage on attack rolls against the target. The effect lasts until the target takes damage or until the start of the vampire’s next turn. If a creature can’t be charmed, it is immune to this effect. A creature that successfully saves against the vampire’s gaze is immune to it for 1 hour.

Multiattack. The vampire makes two longsword attacks.
Longsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) slashing damage plus 10 (3d6) necrotic damage.

This reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest. The target dies if this effect reduces its hit point maximum to 0.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one willing creature, or a creature that is grappled by the vampire, incapacitated, or restrained. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 4) piercing damage plus 7 (2d6) necrotic damage. The target's hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the necrotic damage taken, and the vampire regains hit points equal to that amount. The reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest. The target dies if this effect reduces its hit point maximum to 0.
Shield Bash. If the vampire is the target of a melee attack, it can make a shield bash. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 9 (2d4 + 4) bludgeoning damage.
