Is it possible for my character to get the vampire template?

[Avastus]

Can I make my character a vampire in this game?

[UR|wRÅR]

No.

You can't make your character a vampire, but you can make him sparkle with glitterdust

Hello.

Faerie Fire also works, without blinding your MC.

If you were to do CotW you can have curse of vampirism on your oracle. Not the most practical thing for a plethora of reasons, but hey, it's there.

Doesn't the vampire template increase your char lvl by 5 in PF 1.0? It's a bad thing in this game?

[PhantomZero1]

there's a mod (races unleashed) on nexus that lets you play as a dhampir (half vampire or vampire spawn

ECL isn't a thing in Pathfinder.

If you do not mind modding as suggested the mod Races Unleashed has you partly covered.
Below is how I create vampires.

You will require 3 mods for this.
Races Unleashed
https://www.nexusmods.com/pathfinderkingmaker/mods/144

Eldritch Arcana Updated
https://www.nexusmods.com/pathfinderkingmaker/mods/129

Call of The Wild

Create a new character and follow along.

Race -> Dhampir

Class -> *

Heritage
Dhampir Heritage -> *
Alternative Racial traits -> *
Favoured Class -> *
Bonus Skill Ranl ->*

Skills -> *

Abilities
Feat -> *
Deity Selection -> Urgathoa
Traits -> *
Traits -> *
Drawbacks -> You Were Cursed [HB]
Undead Curse


You will end up with A Undead Dhampir which is the closest I have gotten to a traditional Vampire so far. Here is a quick example

Limitations:
No vampire touch available during character creation (requires necromancy spell or modding)
Nosferatu bite seems to be bugged I can't find the natural weapon anywhere

Interesting, is blood drinking out then?

Also, is playing the dhampir fun?

It takes a penalty to constitution and can't be healed normally. So for most builds I would say no.

I am running a Dark Elementalist / Kinetic Knight Vivisectionist / Chirurgeon Dhampir with affinity for water, cold

Thus far I am enjoying it though for healing I am solely reliant on other party members but most times the enemies do not last long if I hit that is

This is a no gear stat overview from my currently level 8 character Using the 3 mods outlined

It is homebrew as undead are not able to suffer burn according to the Pathfinder rules thus can not become a Kinetic Knight.
In game however I do suffer points of burn. There is no technical limitation that prevents it from working.

That doesn't make your character a vampire it just makes him a cheap emo fanfiction of a vampire

Does the undead template make it so the dhampir is only healed by heal undead spells?
