Dhampir 5e - Dungeons and Dragons를 위한 궁극의 가이드 (2023)

FAQs

What class should a dhampir be? ›

Overall, Ninja or Rogue are excellent class choices for a child of the night. Sorcerer: A dhampir's bonus to Charisma makes them excellent candidates for Sorcerers, and there's even a bloodline made specifically for them, the Undead bloodline.

Red Sunlight - While not affected by normal (yellow) sunlight and immune to all the weaknesses of traditional vampires, dhampirs are vulnerable to long exposure of red sunlight which is able to fatally burn their skin.

Although Dhampir are not harmed by sunlight, they cannot heal in it. This gives them an advantage over their vampire cousins, but encourages them to inhabit the same haunts.

A dhampir can go for one week plus a number of days equal to his Constitution score without tasting fresh blood. After this time, the character must make a Constitution check each day (DC 10 +1 for each previous check) or become fatigued.

That means that races like Tabaxi and Lizardfolk are really good when transformed into a Dhampir.

Age: Dhampirs reach adulthood at the age of 18 and are generally immortal. Alignment: Dhampirs are often Chaotic Neutral, True Neutral, or any Evil alignment.

One unique distinction between vampires and dhampirs is that a dhampir's blood is very acidic towards vampires and can melt any part or the complete body of a vampire.

Red Sunlight - While not affected by normal (yellow) sunlight and immune to all the weaknesses of traditional vampires, dhampirs are vulnerable to long exposure of red sunlight which is able to fatally burn their skin.

Mechanically, the Dhampir has some cool stuff going for it. You don't need to breath or use light or walk on floors (or even walls, once you reach level 3). But the Dhampir's signature trait is their bite, which carries a lot of complexity on its own (see below, under Vampiric Bite).

Dhampir Hungers

You're not under any compulsion to feed on this stuff mechanically, but from a roleplaying standpoint you should either be regularly indulging or resisting your dark urges through extreme willpower.

Dhampir Age normally for the first 18 years of their life. Afterwards their aging slows and they live to a maximum of 150 years. Though most are killed or succumb to the disease long before they reach old age.

Reproduction. Dhampir and a Moroi can reproduce, with the offspring always being Dhampir. Dhampirs cannot reproduce with humans.

Unlike true vampires, Dhampir are not undead. Sunlight does not burn their skin, and holy magic has no additional effect on them. However, their internal body temperature is much lower than that of other 'warm blooded' creatures, being only about 14 degrees Celsius.

Description. Dhampyrs were thin and willowy, with pale skin and slightly pointed ears. They had slightly pronounced canines and blood-red eyes.

Arguably the best part of being a Dhampir is the Spider Climb feature. This gives you a climbing speed equal to your walking speed, and at third level you can use this to walk around on walls and ceilings without using your hands. Basically, you can use the second-level 5e spell Spider Climb for absolutely free.

A dhampir is unable to turn a human into another dhampir, due to them not possessing the proper amount of power to be able to complete the transformation process.

The Dhampir's vampiric heritage makes it impossible for her to become a changeling, demon, mage, mummy, werewolf, or their related kin. She can be blood bound to a vampire, though she does not become a ghoul. A Dhampir can become Imbued, but does not lose their Dhampir template.

Dhampir are somewhat rare half-vampires. They generally possess a measure of the vampire's supernatural beauty, though their skin is also generally as pale as the dead. Most often Dhampir hair lacks proper color, following a range from white to black with grays in between.

Age. Dhampir mature as humans do, but have extremely long lifespans due to their undead heritage, living upwards to a thousand years.

What language do dhampir speak? ›

Languages: Dhampirs begin play speaking Common. Those with high Intelligence scores can choose any language it wants (except secret languages, such as Druidic). See the Linguistics skill page for more information about these languages.

Noun. vampiress (plural vampiresses) A female vampire.

While not vampires in their entirety, dhampirs do inherit certain traits from their undead parent. The pale skin and bloodsucking fangs are the most obvious of these traits, and are accompanied by a resistance to cold weather and the lack of a need for sleep.

Dhampir don't burn in sunlight, but they are sensitive to it. Dhampir prefer to operate at night or underground, away from sunlight. Sunlight affects each dhampir differently. Some find that sunlight gives them a headache, while others find their supernatural powers are dampened in sunlight.

Telepathy / Telekinesis - A vampire/dhampir/Giver can read the minds of people around them, sometimes passively, purposefully, or on accident, but they can also carry on silent conversations with people they choose with this, even with multiple people if they are in range.

Magecraft: Dhampirs are able to cast traditional elemental magic and spells.

They have pale skin that is cool to the touch. Their canine teeth are slightly pronounced at all times, and they extend significantly when they bite to feed. Dhampirs also tend to have long and slightly curved fingernails.

A Dhampir cannot reproduce through another Dhampir or even a human, thus a Dhampir relationship with another Dhampir cannot create another Dhampir as a female Dhampir cannot reproduce. This also occurs with humans, as a Dhampir cannot have children with a human due to them also being able to procreate.

There are a few healing spells that don't rely on either positive or negative energy, such as Celestial and Infernal Healing, or Regenerate. These would be able to heal the Dhampir, the same as any other creature, regardless of any feats. The Treat Deadly Wounds usage of the Heal skill would also work on any Dhampir.

Unlike a ghoul, a dhampir cannot be Embraced; attempts to do so will simply kill the dhampir character.

Can a dhampir be resurrected? ›

Dhampirs are not undead. They can indeed be revived just like any other normal humanoid.

Dhampir Hungers

Every dhampir knows a thirst slaked only by the living. This desire is a whisper in the mind, a tinge to the sight, a reflex constantly needing to be suppressed. Those who overindulge their thirst risk losing control and forever viewing others as prey.

Born with a human soul while possessing the natural power and abilities of vampires as well as magic attributes and other feats unique to themselves, Dhampirs do not possess any weaknesses inherent in vampires with the only exception being the thirst for blood.

Strahd von Zarovich, also known as Strahd the XI, was allegedly the first vampire and a darklord of the domain of Barovia in the Demiplane of Dread.

Dimitri is restored as a Dhampir and taken into custody. Traumatized and crushed by guilt, he pushes Rose away and tries to avoid her as much as possible saying that he cannot forgive himself for what he did to her.

A dhampir being born in of itself is very rare, due to a vampire's undead nature which may result in a lack of fertility. However, when it does happen, in most stories a Dhampir is born from a female human and a male vampire, with the opposite being even rarer.

Dhampirs vary widely in height and build, from barely 5 feet to well over 6 feet tall. Regardless of your position in that range, your size is Medium. Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

What types of vampires are dhampir? ›

The Dhampir are half-human, half-vampires who are born to protect the Moroi. This race does not have elemental magic but does have enhanced strength and senses making them the strongest protection against the Strigoi. Unlike the Moroi, they can survive without blood and can freely enjoy the sunshine.

Depends on system/edition/DM's whims, but in current D&D, by default, absolutely. Any race, lineage or ancestry can take any class, and dhampirs work nicely with themes of self-control and with a paladin's sometimes Gothic imagery, so I would say definitely.

Dhampir can come from any other living ancestry, such as a human or halfling. You gain the following traits as a dhampir. Ability Score Increase. You gain a +2 and +1 bonus to two different ability scores of your choice, or +1 to three different ones.

In Balkan folklore, a dhampir (Albanian pronunciation: [ðamˈpir]) is a mythical creature that is the result of a union between a vampire and a human. This union was usually between male vampires and female humans, with stories of female vampires mating with male humans being rare.
