Can a PC revenant be turned into a vampire spawn? Or does Relentless Pursuit still kick in 24 hours after death, returning you to life?
My thoughts... I think it depends a lot on how you define undeath. Is it a form of life, or a form of death? If it's a form of life, being a revenant (the UA kind anyway) is compatible with vampirism. If it's a form of death, being a revenant takes precedence. If it's truly a unique half-way point, as I think most people define it, it's really a matter of DM fiat.
The rules don't offer an explicit answer, but I think the green box on p.295 supports revenants being turned into vampire spawn. That is, they keep their stats, which would include subrace. On the other hand, I think it's a much cooler story if the thirst for revenge is more powerful than vampirism, so I would personally rule accordingly.
