Complications:
Addiction - Much like humans are "addicted" to food and water, so it is for vampires needing blood.
Loyalty - The Iron Vampires are devoted to their sire, Solidago.
Mirror, Mirror - A vampire's image is unable to be captured by reflective objects unless they are in their armor. This includes mirrors, video equipment and the like.
Monstrous - While Drakus-decendant vamps are monsters, they hide it better than some. When they "vamp out," all of their teeth extend by a half inch and come to very sharp points.
Vulnerability - Besides burning in sunlight, attacks with solar energy descriptors and blessed objects get +5 effect against vampires if it penetrates their armor.
Weakness - If staked through the heart (via a successful called or critical shot that pierces through the armor or obtaining a "yellow" level damage) with a sharp wooden object, Drakus-decendant vampires become paralized until it is removed. Likewise, they are unable to stay in the vicinity of the smell of raw garlic and the sight of holy symbols held by people of faith.

The Iron Vamps were created and designed by Jim Caswell. They are NPCs.
