I should have something like sixty 1st level believers, six 2nd level, three 3rd level, two 4th level, one 5th level and one 6th level.   I’ve got a whole dang posse, though they are severely underpowered for combat and could die easily. Not that they care, they are fanatical about me.  I’d really only want to deal with the stronger ones, the rest can be doing menial things. If I can at least create my one Thrall, then I’ll likely make him a Meat Shield. A bodyguard, if you will. But I’d have to think about it. As for character backstory, I’m thinking my Dhampir isn’t evil, per se, but has been around a long, long time and has built his influence over the last few centuries.  He hates vampires and uses his considerable abilities (which he got from them, an irony that is not lost on him) to fight them wherever he can. But he does have other plans. His believers are akin to a network of people throughout the area who spy for him and bring him information, and they range from beggars to servants to traders and perhaps even nobility (the higher leveled ones). He tries to keep them from harm, but he will use them for his ends, whatever they may be. So how about it, DM?  How far can I go?  And is anyone else weirded out that my spellcheck actually recognizes Thrallherd as a real word?Sent from my iPad using EN World</blockquote>
