Publisher's blurb: I've avoided using a vampire in my adventures for years. They've been written about and done to death. But after you shake off all the pop culture dingberries the vampire is still an intriguing and useful antagonist. Vampires go into gaseous form when they reach 0hp, then it drifts off to their next coffin. Perfect for an ongoing enemy. Ulric is in the tradition of a vampire being a evil monster. People are food to him and sometimes helpful (but disposable) servants. Ulric doesn't care if his food is an adult or a child. There is no consideration of mercy or pity.
