The following 3 traits don't work in sunlight.Go for the throat.
You're able to drink the blood of an enemy to maintain your health. You perform a special melee attack, using your Strength or Dexterity as the attacking score. On a hit, you deal necrotic damage equal to 1d6 + your Constitution modifier and you regain an equal amount of hp. You are proficient with this attack.Draining Bite.
After using "Go for the throat", at the end of your turn you can choose to prolong your bite into a big succ that fully drains the victim of blood. Each turn you remain latched on you must make a Grappling roll, additionally, you deal 5 + con necrotic damage and regain an equal amount of hp. A creature can make a str saving throw at the start of each of its turns, freeing itself on a success (DC is the most recent Grappling roll made by the vamp). While you are attached you have disadvantage on saving throws, can't use actions or movement. You can remove yourself as a bonus action, however, if you remain attached for 6 turns the target drops to 0 hp.Blood Starvation.
If you go for longer than seven days without drinking at least 1 blood ration, you gain 1 permanent level of exhaustion at dawn and additional levels every day after that. Consuming one blood ration will remove all levels of exhaustion caused by this trait. If you reach six levels of exhaustion due to this trait, you die immediately. A blood ration is roughly 4 ounces, just enough to sustain you each week, but you still feel the urge to drink and may still appear twitchy or ravenous in the heat of battle or when treating a wounded ally. A pint is considered a healthy amount, more than enough to sustain you while also suppressing your less civilized behavior. Each blood ration heals you for 1d4+con hit points, while a pint will heal you for 4d4+con hit points.Dark Desire.
The dark power of your blood twists the desires and emotions of your past life, giving way to sin and corruption.You may struggle with it or give in to the darkness, either way, society will judge your every step.
