I'm honestly impressed that the vampiric bite is so balanced the healing falls off immediately after Level 5 or 6 but the attack bonus is so powerful which is probably why the restrictions are there tieing the damage and attack rolls to constitution and piercing damage specifically keeps the attack bonus in check but it comes at the cost of making the healing completely useless really quick
Edited: also imagine a big intimidating paladin covered head to toe with heavy armor walking upside down on the ceiling that sounds so scary to see i also didn't think about the monk before watching this in regards of the bite feature
I really like the idea of the way of the long death dhampir. The temp hp from defeating enemies, the bite attack, it all feels very cohesive to me.
Free healing is never useless. And there are also ways to buff that damage, and thus healing, anything that increases the piercing damage dealt also increases the healing, like hunter's mark for example. But the real nice thing is the buff to checks you can get from the ability also, +5 or more to an ability check is quite substantial at any level.
I love the Dhampir race. I first time I ever learned about Dhampirs were from Vampire Hunter D which still to this day is one of my favorite anime lol
I remember watching Vampire hunter D. That was a great anime. You do get alot of feel for that kind of a character. The heroic Vampire. It works really well.
Artificer Dhampir can be used to make a techy Spider-man. You could always use the spells Spider Climb and Web, but they're both Concentration Spells so you could only hold onto one of them. Instead of blood and raw meat, you could eat math equations or kicking ass for breakfast. Reflavor a little.
Tech Spider-Man is a cool concept. And it kinda fits, Spider-Man is a technological genius.
I’m going to be a player in the wild beyond the witchlight campaign starting this Saturday and one of the other players is going to be a dhampir cleric.
You never mention being a player before. I take it your a forever dm?
@@TheSinisterheroes I actually started DMing during the pandemic and I was a player back in my late teens to mid twenties. Now that I’m in my mid thirties it will be good to be a player again. I will be playing a simic hybrid wild magic barbarian that was an elven scientist that volunteered for an experiment that would enhance their strength but it also changed their dna giving them the appearance of a sea creature.
Don't forget the piercer feat! So good with a damphir. Hope to see the reborn soon 😉. Love you your videos!
I did the reborn a while ago 🤔 to be honest I kinda feel like I should re do some videos cus maybe my perspective has changed and I might have some new ideas.
@TheSinisterheroes OH! I can't believe I didn't see that! I just watched. So great. I played a reborn warlock and they can be pretty insane combo. Especially if you use pact of the tome and summon a horse. Plus, use the dream spell every chance you get. It's nuts
My character for my group’s new campaign is gonna be a Dhampir Hexblade Warlock
I’m very much looking forward to climbing onto a ceiling and spamming Eldritch Blast lmao
Also I could rack up a decent amount of regained HP if I kill someone affected by my Hexblade’s Curse with my Vampiric Bite
Because if someone dies to my curse I get HP back equal to my Warlock level + my Charisma mod and of course my bite regains HP
So boom
Not really any need for healing potions lol
Once you get a taste for that spider walk. You are just going to get addicted. It is more useful than people think.
One of my favorite races to build a “Monster Slayer” Ranger!
Yeah absolutely it fits the troop super well! You can throw in you need monster spinal fluid or something and it works
In a friend’s campaign I’m playing a dhampir ranger
That’s a strong combination. Personally I love the ranger, and when I last played a dhampir I really enjoyed it alot.
I recently created a Dhampir echo knight Named Link Exodius and chose the knight background with his back story being that he’s A Cursed Wandering Knight who was once The Heir To House Exodius, a family of high nobility known for producing Highly Skilled Magic Knights until The war With a Vampire Lord, they Managed to Win and defeat the vampire lord however with House Exodius being the only type line of defense at the time, the war left House Exodius Nearly Obliterated with only Link and His attendant being the only survivors, the vampire lord managed to bite link as a last ditch effort and cursed him for the rest of his life.
I love how his victory came at such a cost. He became the monster he fought against, and I just love that!
I'm playing as a Dhampir Assassin Rouge in a Horror-Themed D&D5E Campaign.
Oooo I gotta say take advantage of the Spider-Man ability, the one where you can walk on walls! It will make a huge difference! Plus what’s better than dropping from the ceiling onto your prey on the first round of combat!
Honestly, best healing you can get out of the bite would be on Kensei monk and adding the Deft Strike that they get at level 6. Maybe it's a waste of ki points but still, when you're at low hp, it could be clutch.
I love the dhampir on the monk. I personally like the long death monk, because you use the bite to kill regain some hp and then boom temp hp
hides amongst shifters. eats raw meat and bites. could see and echo knight or a beast barbarian being very cool with this.
Best barbarian, is interesting cus you could do a thing where your turning into a like “true vampire” form. I could definitely see it working.
Dhampir is one of my favorite races, I have played a few already, and I am planning another one, which is a warlock with the first vampire patron from Grim Hollow, (think kind of like undead patron but more focused theme on specifically vampire rather than general undead), which gives you lot of vampire themed abilities and patron spells (which don't really have any overlap with Dhampir racial abilities), that I am going to have been a human originally and being transformed to a dhampir as part of the pact they made with their vampire patron (that is just flavor, mechanics wise I just use the dhampir race stats). It's going to be a lawful evil noble who due to backstory reasons lost everything and her patron saved her and offered to help her get back everything she lost, and much more, in exchange for swearing allegiance to the vampire and becoming his agent to destroying his enemies that he can't get to himself for some reason or another. Which should give lot of opportunities for the DM to incorporate the patron into the game.
I like how it flows really well. The nobility into losing everything. The vampire pact making your a dhampir. The desperation. I’d love to find out how your character knew or found the vampire patron. Was it like some underground noble club with members who had such bad rumors swirling around them. Or was it by chance? It all has this wonderful Dracula esq feel not just cus there are vampires, but because I can almost like see the campaign setting your in.
@@TheSinisterheroes I haven't started playing it yet so the DM might suggest some changes, but the way I have written the backstory is more that the patron found her, when she was literally dying after being attacked by some thugs, killing them and then, as she was laying on the ground bleeding, asked from her if she wanted to live, and if so, what for? And after she gave a satisfying answer, saved her life in exchange for her serving as his agent in places where he couldn't easily go.
That’s cold I love it. At the end of the your life, the one thing you want to live for is getting your revenge and your life back. I love it
Haven't played her yet but I have a dhampir Swords ⚔️ Bard who goes around assassinating bad guys and getting paid well for it. Rebecca is a psychic energy dhampir and her chief weapons are a pair of magical rapiers,.
I like the swords bard because you get this flavor text for a traveling circus vigilante, and I am all about it
It’s weird it can be creepy it’s just fun
Also, don’t be so quick to hate on the Small Halfling/Dhampir. Childlike innocence that turns on a dime…
I wouldn’t stop someone but man is it just a great lineage that you can do soo much

I loved that movie I also love Nicolas Cage
why not take the PIERCER FEAT with this?
You absolutely could!
Dhampir as a transformation? What madness is this? I prefer the Pathfinder version, where they're an actual heritage for your character. Or, you could just go full fledged vampire.
That was a suggestion based on the beast barbarian. Reflavoring the transformation into a like true vampire.
For The Algorithm
Thank you!!!
@@TheSinisterheroes 👍
One thing I like to mess with when playing a Damphir is the Lineage of the Vampire your draw your heritage from. It would mostly be a rp thing but I like to think it would affect certain things about the character like their fighting style and what not.
Edit: Take the different groups of the Vampire Counts of Warhammer fantasy for example
Kinda like vampire the masquerade? Like your lineage has a certain influence of your behavior
@@TheSinisterheroes Indeed. I'd say that it offers different playstyles and Apperances for a Damphir
