I have fought two of them in Skullport and we had a couple more on our tracks before Irusyl showed up on coincidence and the vampires fled. Initially, they've been quite powerful in combat, but there I was taken by surprise and completely unprepared. They are no real vampires, tho, as they don't seem to have the same lifeforce disrupting touch on them. Later, when I had my spells running, they didn't seem that powerful anymore on reflection. However, they work very well together as a team, having some sort of telepathic link among them. There was one, who provided the team with useful information via divination, that's how they kept up with us, altho we were using dimensional travel to get some distance between us and them. They also are capable, individually, of similar dimensional travel, and I know now, that they can cover a distance of roughly a quarter mile with one jump. What makes them really dangerous in my eyes is, that they can take victims with them, something my spells do not allow me to do.When I clashed with them, they were with a group of humans from Longsaddle and on an operation to make a deal with some cultists, followers of the Plague Maiden, who were to get them some sort of weapon, which allows the control of plagues, in return for prisoners they could sacrifice. I was one of these, as was Ines here. There were a few other prisoners, which I had freed from their cells, but the vampires took them with them, when they fled. There was nothing we could do to hinder them, unfortunately, they were simply too quick. These creatures don't seem to suffer from dislocation disorientation at all, they appear out of nowhere and strike quickly. They also took Danilo Thalavar from Longsaddle with them, the leader of the gang that was in Skullport with those vampires, and whom I had under my spell at that time. The vampires dispelled the link later, when they ended up in a temple dedicated to Shar. Took them a few tries, however. I guess he'll be a bit angry at me now, considering, that I took his rapier with family insignias and his other stuff and also that I made him tell me so much about the happenings. The plague cultists were also, who led Irusyl there, as she was on a mission to stop them from doing the trade. The weapon, if it was there, should be in her possession by now.</blockquote>
