Any creature wounded by a vampire gains 1 blood point, and the vampire recovers 5 hit points. When a victim's blood points exceed its level, it immediately falls unconscious and turns into a vampire thrall within 2d6 hours.

In this form, the vampire's Defense becomes 20; it can no longer attack but moves 40 meters per action.

When exposed to sunlight, the creature takes 2d6 damage per round to its maximum hit points (it cannot regenerate them as long as it remains in the light).

When it drops to 0 hit points, it automatically shifts into gaseous form and heads for its coffin; only there can it be finished off.
