Homebrew Lesser Vampire Species Details

They are the result of many generations of weaker and weaker vampires breeding with more common races including Elves, Humans, Dragonborn, and in rare cases Gilf and Orcs.

The lesser vampiric creatures are usually found as half Human or half Wood-Elf, and rival Tiefling in strength, but not origin, as Lesser Vampires are not creatures of the underworld.
