 You're fighting Contessa-Countess-Tsarina-Contessa Cordelia Diresmell

You ready your weapon as a vampire in an ancient and yellowing lace gown drifts down the hall toward you. As she gets near, you realize that she's old. Very very old. You know that weird smell that old people sometimes get when they don't or can't take care of themselves properly? Sweat and antiseptic and old lady perfume? Multiply that by about 600 years.

Notes

• Every round, vampires suck your blood, healing themselves.
  • The vampire turns into a reeking bat, does something bats do a lot that is really disgusting, then turns back.
  • The vampire shrieks at you, exhaling a lungful of corpse-breath.
  • The vampire's spit smells like blood and death, and he's slobbering all over while he sucks your blood.
  • The vampire stops sucking your blood to belch a belch that smells like fresh blood and old corpses.
  • The vampire turns into a cloud of mist, but it's a green cloud that smells horrible.
• The name, image, and introduction text of this monster are all randomly selected:

	You barely have time to react to the vampire screaming down toward the hall at you, with her claws extended and hatred in her eyes and, it turns out, an ancient and powerful reek. Seriously, I know adventures talk about the "stench of death" pretty frequently, but it's not often you find it so literally represented. You briefly wonder if the classical vampiric aversion to running water also includes showering.
	A vampire with long, matted hair and ragged clothes scuttles out of the shadows toward you, hissing, her eyes glowing red in the dim light and... and... phew. Man. It seems that not only has she been living on rats for the past few centuries, she's also been rolling around in the rotting corpses.
	If you've ever heard the term "blood bath", you might have thought that it's something vampires do to stay clean and hygienic. Well, some vampires do, but the thing is, when you've got enough blood to fill a bathtub, it doesn't just dry out. It rots. And it stinks.
