This is one of those things that the monster manual doesn't cover about vampires, and that is dismemberment. The book states that vampires have fast healing, but NOT regeneration. So logically a vampire could potentially loose an arm or leg that he or she could not get back.
I've had someone tell me that the vampires arm would mist and return to the coffin. I disagreed because that should only happen when the vampire is reduced to 0 hit points.
Then the same person said, "Then the vampire just regrows it in the coffin."
Once again I disagree, because there is nothing in the entry that specifically states that a vampire can regrow limbs. That would be regeneration and I say again that a vampire don't NOT have regeneration.
So, I was interested on hearing what other people have to say on this. Tell me, what do you think?
