| Feixue of the Ryu’jinn |
“I was denied my birthright, but I will not be denied your life.”
Feixue is the sole remnant of an extinct vampire bloodline. Under commandment of the Imperial Throne, an entire legion of the Empire brought ruin and destruction to the thrice acursed Ryu’jinn lineage across the Ebon Mountains. An illegitimate dhampir to a minor noble, Feixue’s birth was denied record in the clan register and this exclusion kept his heritage secret from the Inquisition.

TRAITS
Decanting. When Feixue finishes a Long Rest, he can create one Potion of Healing or an Antitoxin, as long as he has an empty vial or flask. These liquids evaporate when he finishes another Long Rest.
Spider Climb. Feixue can move up, down, and across vertical surfaces and along ceilings while leaving his hands free.
Tactical Mind. When Feixue fails an ability check, he can expend a use of Second Wind, and instead of regaining Hit Point, Feixue adds 5 (1d10) to the ability check. If the check still fails, this use of Second Wind isn’t expended.
Vampiric Bite (3/Long Rest). When Feixue deals Vampiric Bite damage to a creature that isn’t a Construct or an Undead, he can empower himself in one of the following ways:
- Drain. Feixue regains Hit Points equal to the Piercing damage dealt.
- Strengthen. Feixue gains a bonus to the next ability check or attack roll he makes within the next minute; the bonus is equal to the Piercing damage dealt.
War Bond. Feixue can create a magical bond between himself and a weapon. He performs the ritual over the course of 1 hour, which can be done during a Short Rest. The ritual fails if another Fighter is bonded to the weapon or if the weapon is a magic item that someone else has attuned to. Once bonded, Feixue can’t be disarmed of that weapon unless he has the Incapacitated condition. He can have up to 2 bonded weapons. If he tries to bond with a 3rd weapon, he must break the bond with one of the other two.

Whenever the familiar drops to 0 Hit Points or disappears into the pocket dimension, it leaves behind in its space anything it was wearing or carrying.
