Dhampirs
Night travelers trying to balance their extraordinary needs for blood, prey, and hunger with their own laws.
Canonical record
Dhampirs can appear as a result of a blood curse, parasite, ancient medical process, vampiric contact, or Stasis infection. They are not a single lineage or nation.
In the Copper Principalities, some Dhampir families hold respected positions in mourning, funerals, and custody of dangerous corpses. They may be hunted or recorded in other states.
