Vampiric Blood Slave/Ghoul (not flesheater)

[simonski]

Ok, I know about the vampire template and all. But what if someone is a bloodslave to a vampire (drinks his blood, but havent tasted his, or hasnt transformed into a vampire yet and acts as the vampires willing "slave"). Im thinking of making either some wierd Feat with bonuses AND drawbacks, a prestigeclass OR a template. A prestigeclass or template seems most appropriate. Now these "ghouls/blood slaves" arent suppossed to be as good as vampires, after all they are slaves, but they should be somewhere between vampires and humans, but lacking some powers and are not damaged by sunlight (maybe they dont like it, like orcs).

Anyone got any suggestions?

actually...

There is a PrC in AEG's Undead, The Puppet, that could be used for just this idea; it can be also used for the lackeys of other powerful undead, like Mummies and Liches.

I dont have that book I will probably write up some kind of template so it can be used with inexperienced people or "newly converted" people.

You could use the Vampiric Blood template from d20 Shadowchasers in Dungeon #91.

We only got Dragon Magazine in Sweden, could you post it for me?

Pretty please with suger on top!

Simonski: Uhm...what part of sweden do you live in?

And he can't post the template here as that would be a copyright violation.

 

[simonski]

Copyright violation... hum ok. Thats too bad.

I live in Stockholm, and I havent found Dungeon anywhere here yet....

 

[Krishnath]

Oh, I live in Gothenburg. Have you tried 'Tradition'?

 

[simonski]

No, but sfbok.se

So "tradition" distributes Dungeon Mag as well? Have they gotten any better than the old Hack N Slash adventures that used to be in them some years back?

Well, I've seen it on occassion, but I'm really annoyed at the bastards at the moment for not getting Chainmail, dammit I wanted those miniatures!
