Homebrew Dhampir Species Details

Commonly known as "part-vampire," dhampirs are incredibly rare, and it is uncertain whether they are the offspring of vampires or are humans that have only been partially turned. Unlike true vampires, they can go out in the sun, and possess only some vampiric abilities.

Dhampir Traits

Dhampirs share certain traits as a result of their partial vampirism.

Ability Score Increase

Your Dexterity score increases by 2 and your Constitution score increases by 1.

Age

Dhampirs mature at the same rate humans do and are considered full-grown adults by 25, at which point their aging slows considerably. It is not known how long their lifespans typically are.

Size

Dhampirs vary as widely in height and build as humans, from barely 5 feet to well over 6 feet tall. Regardless of your position in that range, your size is Medium.

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Darkvision

You have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Sunlight Sensitivity

You have disadvantage on attack rolls and on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when you, the target of your attack, or whatever you are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight.

Vampiric Bite

You bite one willing creature or a creature that is grappled, incapacitated, or restrained, dealing 1d6 necrotic damage. The target’s hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the necrotic damage taken, and you regain hit points equal to that amount. The reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest.

Vampiric Agility

Your enhanced reflexes and agility allow you to move with a burst of speed. When you move on your turn in combat, you can double your speed until the end of the turn. Once you use this trait, you can’t use it again until you move 0 feet on one of your turns.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common/English and one extra language of your choice.
