Vampire Hybrid (5e Class)
vampire hybrid[edit]
a creature born due to an unholy affair between a female vampire and a mortal man. typically under these circumstances no baby could survive however in rare cases a child defies the odds and survives the early stages of implantation. this is you. you are born a being with one half of your body consisting of your mortal flesh and the other a vampiric being. due to the nature of these sides the individuals life expectancy is drastically reduced as the vampirism attempts to consume the host in attempts to feed. most vampires consider this a disgusting state and will attempt to purge or cleanse them in many ways. typically a being born through this nature is sentenced to death which is viewed as a mercy however on special occasions the vampires may choose to attempt to turn you into a pure vampire via unnatural means by attempting a ritual that mimics that of the creation of new vampires and injecting the hybrid with their own mana as well as using healing and reinforcement magics to prevent death during the turning process. a pure vampire can be created however at extreme risks. this is not what you are. you are the risk. at a much lower rate a hybrid may still retain their hybrid status and survive instead having the curse and their vampirism in a constant state of feeding on one another and regeneration. the perfect balance. the curse side mimics that of the effects it was under during the ritual and has a tendency towards healing and strengthening allies and itself whereas the vampirism side is the polar opposite using its opponents blood against them by manipulating it as well as feeding on it to boost itself.

- Hybrid realisation
you are a hybrid of a vampire and some other race, normally such hybrids could not survive however due to having been inflicted by a curse in attempt to turn you into a pure vampire instead this curse now fights your vampire side at all times in an unending combat where both sides are healing and destroying at an equal rate. this has granted you new powers most vampires do not poses. One side takes .the other gives. your cursed side possesses the power to heal others using blood stored in your blood reserve. this is equal to d4 equal to the number of blood reserve points used to a maximum of your constitution modifier. your vampiric side takes blood from your opponents or other incapacitated or willing creatures in order to be stored in your blood reserve and used at a later date. this move does 1 d4 dmg and the damage dealt then gets converted into blood reserve points.
after reaching 3 dominance points. (curse side) each use of the healing feature costs dmg equal to halve the health gained by the target. however you get a healing bonus equal to that of the number of dominance points and no longer uses blood reserves (vampire side) each use of the draining feature costs dmg equal to 1d6 + dominance points. Move now deals necrotic damage equal to 1d4 + dominance points.
- blood reserves.
blood reserves is how you store your victims blood at the start you begin with 3+con maximum reserves which increase each level. these reserves are used in nearly all moves.
- dominance points
dues to the nature of your body being at constant war with itself you require balance and this portrays itself when using your features. when using a feature belonging to a specific side (curse, vampire) you must add a dominance point to that side of your body. reaching a certain number of dominance points on one side alters the way that abilities belonging to that side operate but also cause them to become less stable and have greater consequences or costs. to remove dominance points you must use features belonging to your other side. each feature use brings the opposing sides points down by 1.
