[QUOTE="Hand of Evil, post: 5256040, member: 371"] Sounds like the WFRP novel Drackefel (sp) or Venom. I would make it a template, where powers kick in at levels. Low levels; good AC, later; increases the characters speed, later still; vampire hit recovery (for damage done to foe, player is given a few points back). The problem is you have to watch it so you do not produce an over-powerful character, so now balance it out with drawbacks at some point. Example of this, berserker rage to get the vampire hit point recovery, player has to save or go into rage. 1) Leather armor with AC as scale mail 2) Increase players reaction time by +1 3) AC increase +2 4) Reaction time +2 & hit point recovery (3pts for foe killed) 5) AC increase +4 & Non-Class special ability (burning hands/night vision) 6) Reaction time +4 & hit point recovery (5pts for foe killed) & Rage [/QUOTE]
