Background: The last descendent of the legendary von Dracon line, Scarlet is one of the last vampires left after the wars a hundred years ago which wiped most of their kind. She found refuge in the service of Fex, a powerful necromancer and leader of a dark guild of the undead.

Family: All Deceased

Passive: Magic or effects which are always active.

• Undead: Scarlet isn't truly among the living, but rather an undead vampire reanimated by powerful magic. As a result, her body needs no sustenance, and she does not age. Instead, she's sustained entirely by magic. She also has a supernatural craving for blood. Being undead may make her immune to certain spells or effects, or weaker to others. Generally, she's unbound by the needs of the living, and therefore unaffected by: poison, disease, suffocation, starvation, dehydration, fatigue, pain, and age, while also being able to survive and regenerate normally fatal wounds. In addition, they are immune to the negative passives of other undead creatures. For example, they could easily see through the invisibility of a ghost, or not feel the chilling aura of a wraith.

• Binding: Scarlet is enthralled by a necromancer, and bound by his magic. She's forced to obey his every whim, and is entirely reliant on his magical energy to sustain her body. If his magic were to fade, so would she, until eventually she turned to dust. It also means that the necromancer can sense her wherever she is, and communicate with her at a distance through a spell.

Quickspells: Magic useable instantly at full power without chanting.

• Bat Swarm: Scarlet shapeshifts into a cloud of agile vampire bats, allowing her to evade attacks or travel more efficiently, then reform at a new location. Optionally, she could instead shapeshift into a single bat, but would leave herself vulnerable as a result.

Normal Mode: Magic useable without any special transformations or conditions.

• Nocturnal Hunt: Scarlet harnesses her predatory instincts to sense her prey's blood and heartbeat by supernatural means, even through walls.

• Sanguivorous Fangs: Scarlet's fangs grow and infuse with vampiric magic, allowing her to utilize them for a powerful armor-piercing magical bite. If a living creature is pierced by these fangs, Scarlet may then directly drain their lifeforce and magical energy until dislodged.

Nightstalker Mode: Magic useable only at night or in dark places.

• Moonlight Mirage: Scarlet becomes one with the dark shadows, and vanishes from sight, becoming invisible and suppressing her magical aura until she attacks or uses another spell.

• Dread Trance: Scarlet meets the gaze of a mortal victim, and telepathically delivers horrifying images and hallucinations into their mind. If the victim is weak, then this may allow her to control them in a hypnotic trance.
