Ecology

Blood-Starved Vampire is a creature that has crossed the threshold of death; its continued presence is itself a violation of natural law. It is most often found in ruins regions. It is medium-sized, which shapes how it hunts, hides, or fights.

Behaviour

Blood-Starved Vampire is haunted by what it was in life; its goals echo old grievances or the will of the necromancer who raised it. Its alignment varies by individual or is irrelevant — it acts on instinct, drive, or whoever commands it. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember.

Origin

Blood-Starved Vampire is introduced in MCDM's Flee, Mortals! (2023). Undead are the wounds the Negative Plane leaves on the mortal world — every undead has a death story behind it. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
