Message: <blockquote data-quote="Camarath" data-source="post: 1407734" data-attributes="member: 11987">I believe that ablilty would make the half-vampyr a LA +2 template. I have some questions and opinions on it if you don't mind.Is the half-vampyr immune to all ability damage, ability drain or just those of undead creatures? Either way, I think the ability should be edited to make it a bit clearer. Here are two examples:1)Immunities (Ex): The half-vampyr is immune to disease, death effects, paralysis, sleep effects, ability damage, and ability drain. It is also immune to the energy drain attacks of undead creatures. 2)Immunities (Ex): The half-vampyr is immune to disease, death effects, paralysis, and sleep effects. It is also immune to ability damage, ability drain, and energy drain if those effects result from the abilities or attacks of undead creatures.Also the Undead are only immune to damage to thier physical ability scores, thus you might want to replace "ability damage" with "damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution)" And I would note that this ability does not prevent Constitution damage from the half-vampyr's Blood Strength and Blood Dependency.I after looked at the half-vampyr's Vulnerable to Turning I understand why immunity to stunning wouldn't work but I liked immunity to posion. This is how I would rewrite the ability if it was up to me. As I wrote the ability it is a bit stronger than if the ability only protected against ability damage, ability drain, and energy drain from Undead but it think it would still work with LA +2.Immunities (Ex): The half-vampyr is immune to posion, disease, paralysis, sleep effects, death effects, energy drain, ability drain, and damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution). This ability does not prevent Constitution damage suffered because of the half-vampyr's Blood Strength and Blood Dependency abilities.Also what do you think of this ability? I don't think it is a very strong ability but it might add something to the template if you like the flavor of it.Blood Endurance (EX): Every time the half-vampyr would become fatigued as the result of an effect or condition it instead suffers 1 point of Constitution damage. If an effect or condition would make the half-vampyr become exhausted it instead suffers 2 points of Constitution damage. This damage can only be healed by its Drink Blood ability, and not through normal healing.</blockquote>
