Being an unholy vampire, you are weak to holy things. This includes the [[Chaplain]], Holy Water, and the [[Chapel]]. The Chaplain's bible when it comes into contact with you will set you alight in holy flame, this is extremely deadly and if you are unprepared can be fatal. Holy water also has the same effect, both when it comes into contact with you and when you come into contact with floors blessed by it. Merely being in the Chapel exposes you to its holy aura beginning a process of your certain death: at first, your skin will flake but will soon develop into you combusting into flames until you exit the Chapel, concluding with you being incinerated. The last and de facto weakness of Vampires is starlight. Vampires going out into space will be exposed to starlight causing them to burn in a similar fashion to being exposed to the Chapel's holy aura. Even with EVA gear, vampires are subject to being exposed to starlight.

Starting off, you will need to use a secular form of stun such as a [[Makeshift_weapons#Stunprod|stunprod]] in order to feed off of someone, but once doing so you will able to use the usable blood gained to use Hypnotize. Preferably, your victims will need to be in a secluded area so you can peacefully feed on them. Getting [[Maintenance]] access to prowl on unaware [[Assistant|maint dwellers]] will be a massive boon. Later on, Hypnotize will cost a minimal amount of blood allowing you to pick off people easily without the need of a stun weapon.  
As long as you do not grab your victim, you will be able to slowly, inefficiently, but '''completely undetectably''' siphon blood from anyone you bite, as long as you're careful to break away before they notice symptoms of blood loss. Increasingly sturdier grabs will allow you to gain much more usable blood per unit drained and drain that blood faster, so by sacrificing stealth you become much more powerful much more quickly.

Vampires are creatures of the night - predatory beings of occult origin who feed on crew members for their blood (if they have any). They have assimilated into the crew and must feed off of other crew members to gain new powers.

Vampires worship Lilith, who in exchange for their humanity gives them immortality and eternal youth in exchange for a neverending hunger for blood.

To suck blood, switch to harm intent, target the head, and hit your victim with an empty hand, like punching them in the face.

Usable and Total blood

Total blood is the sum of all the blood you gained, it cannot be used and is only important for your objectives and unlocking new abilities.

Usable blood is the blood you have available to use for your powers. Once a power is used, your usable blood is used and once drained must be replenished by feeding or by wearing your Vampire Coat.

Weaknesses and Strengths

Before trying to become the evilest being ever to grace the station you must know your own weaknesses.

Being an unholy vampire, you are weak to holy things. This includes the Chaplain, Holy Water, and the Chapel. The Chaplain's bible when it comes into contact with you will set you alight in holy flame, this is extremely deadly and if you are unprepared can be fatal. Holy water also has the same effect, both when it comes into contact with you and when you come into contact with floors blessed by it. Merely being in the Chapel exposes you to its burning holy aura, beginning a process of your eventual death: at first, your skin will flake but unless you exit the chapel it will soon develop into you combusting into flames, and if it kills you, you will be reduced to unrevivable bones. The last and de facto weakness of Vampires is starlight. Vampires going out into space will be exposed to starlight causing them to quietly, slowly burn in a similar fashion to initial exposure to the Chapel's holy aura. Even with EVA gear, vampires are injured by exposure to starlight.

However, being a vampire also has its perks.

Coffins will heal you while you are in them, but the only readily-made coffins on the station are located in the Chapel, meaning you have to make one with wood. As you accumulate more blood, your powers will also grow, the extent of your powers rising from a single-target stun to making your own antagonist. Eventually, your full potential will be result in you no longer being weak to the effects of anything holy.

Finding a victim

As long as you do not grab your victim, you will be able to slowly, inefficiently, but completely undetectably siphon blood from anyone you bite, as long as you're careful to break away before they notice symptoms of blood loss. Increasingly sturdier grabs will allow you to gain much more usable blood per unit drained and drain that blood faster, so by sacrificing stealth you become much more powerful much more quickly.

For aggressive hunting, you will need to use a secular form of stun such as a stunprod in order to feed off of someone at first, but once you've fed you will able to apply the usable blood gained to use Hypnotize. Preferably, your victims will need to be in a secluded area so you can peacefully feed on them. Getting Maintenance access to prowl on unaware maint dwellers will be a massive boon. Later on, Hypnotize will cost a minimal amount of blood allowing you to pick off people easily without the need of a stun weapon. People who wear blindfolds, are blind, or have any other type of eye protection will be unaffected by both hypnotize and vampiric gaze.

Achieving your objectives

As a vampire you have 3 objectives, chosen from the following:

  • Objective #1: Extract 400-700 units of blood or turn 1-3 crewmembers into vampires with Lilith's pact
  • Objective #2: Steal/Assassinate/Maroon/Kill AI/Turn crew into vampires/Free Objective.
  • Objective #3: Escape on the shuttle or an escape pod alive and without being in custody.

Objective #1 is completed through sucking blood from crew members until your Total blood reaches your target amount or turning crewmembers with the lilith's pact ability.
Objective #2 is more tricky (unless it is a free objective). You can gain access to anywhere with Mist form to steal high-value items, and stun single targets with Hypnotize to pick them off. However, if you are tasked with killing an AI you are in for a challenge: you have no abilities to stun silicons and are non-human if found out. You will have to rely on mundane methods to assassinate an AI. To turn crew into vampires, you will need to use the ability "Lilith's Pact".
Objective #3 will be relatively easy if you were stealthy, however, if you were found to be a vampire consider taking an escape pod.

Security, Hamon warriors, and you

The most prominent danger to you is Security and the Chaplain.

Security Officers are equipped with Disablers capable of dealing stamina damage at range and Stunbatons capable of instantly stunning you in melee combat. Luckily for you, your first and costless ability, Rejuvenate, allows you to recover from stamina damage and stuns. Paired with your other abilities, a single officer can be quickly dispatched by negating their stunning capability and hypnotizing them. However, if a group of Officers attacks you then you will need to use your more advanced abilities along with any other weapon you may have. Chiropteran Screech will stun multiple people while Summon Bats will attack anyone in sight, and in a pinch, Bat Form will enable you to vent crawl for a quick escape. Furthermore, any damage that you may sustain from an encounter can be healed by being in a coffin or, eventually, by using your rejuvenate ability when you have unlocked regeneration.

Until you have reached your full potential, the Chaplain (and their holy items) are by far the most dangerous threat to you should they decide to hunt you. A Bible, whether it be theirs or a printed one from the Library, will set you on fire on contact, and they are equipped with a null rod that can take the form of a variety of weapons. As well as this, their fort is imbued with the power of Hamon their deity, which will incinerate you if you are present in there for too long. Generally, Chaplains are oblivious to the ongoings on the station unless they are directly called by Security for their aid, however, do not rule out that you will never encounter them or anyone with a Bible. Most importantly, DONT ENTER THE CHAPEL.

Vampires have an ability to change their appearance and name at will, and a clever one will do exactly this if they know you know. When combatting vampires, you should travel in groups in hopes of encountering one with backup; vampires are fully capable of picking off single targets with ease but struggle with dealing with large groups. Vampires additionally lose the ability to affect you with several of their more powerful abilities simply if you are wearing sunglasses and a bowman headset. You should also employ the Chaplain and carry Bibles to effectively combat a vampire, a single hit off a bible sets them alight and the Chaplain's holy water works the same way.

However, if the vampire has reached its full potential, your only hope of stopping such a creature is through the sheer might of whatever secular equipment you have.

Chaplain, Hamon warrior

As the Chaplain, you are the greatest fear of any vampire that has not reached their full potential. Your Bible will set any vampire on fire and your Chapel is a haven that any vampire would not dare enter unless they had a death wish. Once you are alerted to the presence of vampires, distribute Bibles by printing them from the Library and bless water tanks so that Holy Water is readily available to any would be vampire hunters.

However, if the vampire has reached its full potential, only the raw damage of your null rod sets you apart from any assistant.

After killing a vampire, dissolve it in the chapel if it isn't at full power, or else simply cremate it like a changeling, otherwise it may return once more from the grave.
