A Vampire's main motivation is an unquenchable thirst that constantly makes them balance the powers of life – their own and their enemies'. Dark servants help the hero disappear, absorbing the blows, while their master reaches the foe with a slash of the blade from afar. After surprising their quarry with a rose, the hero will chase anyone down to drag them away for a feast – one that will nourish and delight the Vampire, and the Vampire only.

Biography

For ages his clan had ruled their own lands, but the world they knew was swept away by the Cataclysm. The borders of all the domains laying within the new Imperium were redrawn to encompass Prime deposits, and what was once an independent province became the backwater of a large domain.

A few decades later, a young Lord arrived to meet his new subjects. He was shown every courtesy — during the day, that is. When night fell, the Master of the Tower, the last scion of the ancient Scarlet Rose clan, attacked him with curses, yelling, “I shall not suffer subservience to any Imperium!” The Lord’s faithful heroes managed to subdue the attacker, but the Lord himself was nevertheless amazed by the Master's sheer power and awesome swordsmanship — it is rare indeed for a mere human to stand against two heroes.

“You have rebelled against Imperial authority and deserve to die, but I shall give you a final chance: drink a chalice of Prime, and you may be rewarded with a new life instead of death,” said the young Dokht lord to his captive.

Thus from Prime arose Vampire, a hero thirsting for the blood and vitality of his foes. The Scarlet Rose, the symbol of his ancient clan, now eases the suffering of the Dokht Imperium's many enemies by cutting their earthly existence short with the Bloody Slash of its owner’s rapier. The Vampire uses the Blood Ritual to restore his vitality, consuming the blood of his foes before disappearing into the gloom.
