Vampire

Vampires are powerful undead, fast, silent killers who feed on the life force of living creatures. Vampires move and great speed and slowly regenerate health. When a vampire hits a player it will drain life, instantly decreasing the player's hunger, and use the stolen energy to heal itself even more. This makes vampires especially dangerous, because as they heal you don't.

Unlike the mindless zombie and wrathful revenant, vampires are interested in preserving their own existence and will run away if their health is too low. This can be a good opportunity for you to do the same thing.

Origin

Do I really need to explain where I heard about vampires? I hope not, though some specifics were influenced by Dungeons & Dragons, especially the regeneration.

Hardcore Vampires

There is a config option to allow vampires to drain xp levels from the player. This is based on vampires from Dungeons & Dragons, but is off by default since combat and levels are quite different between games.

Trivia

The vampire skin is a modified version of the update modder's (JaredBGreat) skin.
