**Bejegyzés Vámpír: Annals of the Blood Countess** (朱の伯夫人の史乗ベイエクジース・ヴァンピール, *Ake no Hakufujin no ShijōBeiekujīsu Vanpīru*?) is the Noble Phantasm of Elizabeth Báthory. It is the culmination and the epitome of the numerous stories, be them true or false, of her vampiric deeds that sublimated into a Noble Phantasm, past the influence of just Innocent Monster alone which already granted her draconic attributes that could be further enhanced with Kilenc Sárkány.

## Origins

The most famous rendition of the vampiric legend applying to Elizabeth is Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu's work, *Carmilla*. It has been often postulated that the titular character is based on Elizabeth and her monstrous deeds within the bounds of Čachtice Castle. The distortions surrounding her such as the story that she regularly bathed in the blood of young girls (a ridiculous lie debunked by Elizabeth herself) persist to the present day and successfully modified her Saint Graph to that of a vampire.

Strictly speaking, just the above wouldn't be enough to modify her Saint Graph to the point that it would manifest as a Noble Phantasm; the aforementioned are merely the effects of Innocent Monster. The Noble Phantasm only manifested due to the machinations of her Master who inadvertently helped in its manifestation as a Noble Phantasm by way of his extravagant summoning ritual in which he used the blood of one hundred virgin girls as well as his own blood. As a result of this, what would've and should've simply been an extra addition to the effects of Kilenc Sárkány morphed into its own Noble Phantasm.

## Effects

The Noble Phantasm is similar in nature to Lancer of Twilight's Legend of Dracula and Elizabeth actually looks down on Lancer for his adamant dislike against utilizing it. However, unlike the aforementioned, Elizabeth's Noble Phantasm does not seal off any of her powers as unlike Lancer, she is fully accepting of her monstrous side and as a result, there is no need for her Master to die should she use this Noble Phantasm. Also unlike Lancer's ability, Elizabeth's ability can be deactivated.

Her appearance doesn't noticeably change upon activating this Noble Phantasm, aside from her teal eyes discoloring into a blood crimson. Like her other Noble Phantasm, she gains a *Rank-Up* in all Parameters aside from ***Luck***. The fact that her vampiric side is simply an addition to her already distorted legend as a descendent of Dragons allows her to simultaneously utilize both draconic and vampiric powers at the cost of being heavily prana-intensive (which can be balanced out by her fortress gathering reserve magical energy for her).

As it is of a similar nature to Lancer's ability, Elizabeth gains more or less the same abilities. She receives a "*black cloak that melts into the night*" and has the capacity to shapeshift into mist and assorted animals and the ability to turn others, even Servants, into vampire comrades through blood-sucking. As she is a being of a similar nature to Dead Apostles, she also possesses the Curse of Restoration and the Mystic Eyes of Enchantment. Her physical strength becomes such that she can easily overpower other Servants to a surprising degree and throw Bátor Opos with such force that the spear casually surpasses the speed of sound and matches the power of a Noble Phantasm (the spear itself is already a Noble Phantasm but that is beside the point). Her movement speed is compared to teleportation, allowing her to mark long-range targets and attack them while being bogged down at close-range.

Her healing happens at such a rate that she is healed faster than she can be damaged, allowing her to easily counter strong attacks simply by allowing them to hit and letting her regeneration quickly repair the damage. She could also prioritize certain aspects of her regeneration so as to allow movement even under constant assault. While this Noble Phantasm is active, physical attacks that would normally hurt and kill a Servant no longer affect her, allowing her to remove projectiles from her body without a single drop of blood leaking out and take strikes to the heart that would normally destroy her spiritual core without issue.

She can use her transformation ability to become a wolf to attack enemies and easily dodge attacks and quickly remove projectiles as a flock of bats or mist, negating all physical damage while in these forms; however, targeting the bats with magecraft or using flames on the mist can still damage her. Similar to Lancer's trump card, Elizabeth also possesses the weaknesses of Dead Apostles: daylight and holy symbols. She will become weaker during the day and she has a weakness to holy implements like Black Keys, a weapon that would normally do little damage to a regular Servant, and Baptism Rites.
