-A vampire is an acquired template over the undead template. Thus it inherits all the properties of the undead template, and also that of the parent race. However, the way vampires come into being, and the existence itself, are cardinally different from that of other undead monsters.+A vampire is an acquired template over the undead template. Thus it inherits all properties of the undead template, and also that of the parent race. However, the way vampires come into being, and the existence itself, are cardinally different from that of other undead monsters. The template sets the creature's resonance to dark.
  
 Unlike common higher undead, vampires have a demonic origin in the world. Although there is much speculation over specifics of their existence, academia is inclined to believe that true vampires come into existence when a succubus kisses the mortal it truly loves. Evidence is scarce as to whether vampires can share the curse with mortals. There are some stories of careless adventurers catching the curse as a disease, but vampirism is so rare that only a few have resources to study vampirism beyond theoretical speculations. Unlike common higher undead, vampires have a demonic origin in the world.

 For vampires, managing their hunger is an integral part of unlife. Some revel in the feast, but for others it is nothing but a constant source of stress and shame. For vampires, managing their hunger is an integral part of unlife.

 Vampires are not your little sister's crystalline brooding anti-heroes. Don't be mistaken: you play a truly alien monster whose motives and thinking has nothing to do with those that mortals share. Your primary goal will always be your own survival. Everyone gets an excuse to kill you because of who you are. Improper roleplay and carelessness will lead to your death. Vampires are not your little sister's crystalline brooding anti-heroes.
