About vampire spawn[edit section | visual editor]

Vampire spawn are created when a Vampire bites and drinks the blood of another creature. Once spawn are born, they are entirely subservient to their creator. They may only regain their free-will through the death of their creator, or reciprocally drinking their masters blood to become a true vampire. Astarion Astarion is a notable exception to this rule, having regained his free will from being infected by a Tadpole.

Vampire spawn do not possess the powerful abilities of a true vampire, though they suffer from the usual afflictions. They are hypersensitive hypersensitive to sunlight, making spells such as Daylight Daylight useful against them. They also have resistance to Physical⁠Physical and Necrotic⁠Necrotic damage.

Notes and references[edit section | visual editor]

  1. ↑ Astarion has a unique Bite attack and none of the vampire spawn passives or resistances. Further, while he is not visibly classed as being undead, he does enjoy some of their benefits (such as ignoring Spell Rot Spell Rot).
  2. ↑ Amanita is only mentioned; it is not clear if she was a spawn or a true vampire.
