Bloodsucking D&D

The mini-adventure I was running in D&D in the Verdant campaign ended on Tuesday with the defeat of the vampire the group had been tracking down. I must saw, it was amusing running the vampire as a bit of a non-combatant. Bromscarux was a sorcerer vampire, with all the usual vampire capabilities, like gaseous form, Domination, bat summoning, and so forth, but he was also extraordinarily charismatic, and had a stock of spells based around misdirection and illusion. He could conceal detection by Detect Evil, he could alter form, he could create and maintain illusions. The party never knew what they were dealing with, and it kept them on their toes. Bromscarux, along with his love of beauty and finery, also had a thing for young boys - he liked those who could sing beautifully, and would kidnap boys and keep them around to sing to him. He was still in mourning for his long-dead male lover.

Fun. I wonder if he's really dead.
