Half Vampire: The vampiric blood flowing through your veins prevents you from being turned into a full vampire. Additionally, you heal 1 HP for every point of bite damage you do. Your attacks are considered magic attacks. You have advantage on all perception skill checks. You must feed on fresh blood or equivalent serum each day. Each day you go without feeding you must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or gain one level of exhaustion. If you would gain your 5th level of exhaustion you frenzy and become an NPC that seeks only to feed. For every 10 points of damage you do with your bite attack you lose one level of exhaustion. Once you lose all levels of exhaustion you regain control of your character.
Vampire Killer: You gain advantage on all skill rolls related to hunting, investigating, and fighting vampires.

Creating a Dhampyr
Step One - Origin: Do you know the source of your vampiric heritage. Do you hunt them or seek a cure for your condition? Were you trained by another vampire hunter? Is your heritage known to the public? Choose two other skills or proficiencies.
Step Two - Appearance: What do you look like? Do you seek to hide your identity with a costume and mask?
Step Three - Ranged Weapon: What kind of special ammo does your shotgun have. Does it use slugs made of teak or silver? Have they been blessed?
Step Four - Persona: Are you a brooding loner that feels cursed? Are you charismatic like vampiric aristocracy?
