A Vampire Snake moves clumsily on the ground, but agilely in flight thanks to their bat-like wings. The snake’s bite is poisonous and those bitten must save vs. Paralysis. The vampire snake can take advantage of a paralyzed (or unconscious) victim, preferably females, to drain their blood for sustenance. Each round of feeding will cause the victim one negative level and heal the snake 1d3 HP.

The vampire snake has a strong aversion to jade and can be be held at bay in a similar fashion to vampires. Vampire snakes can also transform at will into a mist that can freely move at 30’; the transformation requires a single round during which the vampire snake cannot attack.
