Vampire

**Vampires** are a shunned race that reside in **Landrita**. They are a medium race (standing at around of 5'2''- 6'1'') (weighing around 120-200lbs) They are known for their dark magic and assassin-like skills. The most important part of **Vampire** culture is the mission of regaining a strong status among races. They thrive in cold temperatures, and are seen as a diseased human. **Vampires** are rarely seen outside of the **Arctic** areas due to their widespread ban in most cities. Their cities **Glimfell** and **Lodur** are not associated with any district.

## Description

**Vampires** cold and vengeful behavior has been widely due to the racism of the other races. The **Elkien War** is something they see as just another reason to hate other races. **Lodur** fares better than **Glimfell** due to its larger size and stronger walls, but both are poor and impoverished. **Vampires** value support, altruism, and compassion, though like all races, they also pursue power and wealth. Despite all their stigma, **Vampires** are not diseased, they actually cant catch diseases because they are technically an **undead** race. Their hearts don't beat their blood doesn't flow, giving them a pale completion. They are born this way.

**Vampires** don't have much physical variety compared to other races. Their eyes are red, yellow, purple, or black. **Vampire** hair is brown, black, blond, or red. Males often grow short beards and females commonly wear their hair long. **Vampires** average almost six feet in height and weigh about 180 pounds, with males noticeably taller and heavier than females.
The physique of Vampires is more muscular and sturdy than of an **Elf** (they even have pointed ears like **elf's**), but much more slender than that of a Human. The color and hue of **Vampire** skin is usually pale or gray. They don't age, but some can decay if they don't move for a very long time.

## Culture

The **Vampires** of **Landrita** have a very strong sense of hatred for most races, but especially Humans. They have also regularly displayed selfish attitudes and actions. These qualities have led to their society producing more and more stigma.

Most **Vampires** take comfort in the cold and prefer to live in snowy regions. They understand a lot about nature, much like the Elkien people. **Vampire** cities are close-knit, everyone helps everyone no matter what.

In the city, merchants trade goods while craftsmen practice and perform their trades and businessmen provide services. At the top of the social hierarchy is the elected officials, they make the important political decisions on the running of the **Vampires**.

Despite the desire for revenge that generally exists among **Vampires**, some groups do deviate from this cultural trait and cut their ears, trying to disguise as humans and live among them. This will often get them killed.

Their desire for power and wealth has allowed for some of the greatest **assassins** to be **Vampire**. Some of these ambitions lead the **Vampires** to establish thieves **guilds**.
A **Vampire** diet is carnivorous. Typical **Vampire**s just drink straight blood, but disguised ones can get by with raw bloody **meat**.

## Relations

Humans began the stigma around **Vampires** and were the first to implicate bans on their cities. **Vampires** have a very large hatred for them.

**Cu Sith** are close with humans but are generally too friendly to rat a Vampire out.

**Cait Sith** are a neutral ally.

**Orcs** and **Trolls** are close with humans so most believe the stigmas.

**Nubrian** are piggybacking off the Humans so they stay clear of Vampires.

**Goblins** don't care

**Lizardmen** and **Lamia** don't think they exist.
**Kitsune** and **Oni's** don't think they exist.
