Skills

Vampyre skills consume HP instead of MP. The Vampyre skill tree is accessed in Torpor, which you can reach by retiring to your coffin at your campsite for 1 adventure or by losing in combat. Learning a skill reduces your pool of available base HP by the amount indicated. Unlike other classes, Vampyres can reconfigure their skills freely while in Torpor, learning and unlearning any skills so long as they retain a base HP greater than zero.

  • Vampyres also start out with the skills Dark Feast and Wisdom of Countless Centuries.
  • Note that base HP is only increased by base Muscle. Effects and enchantments that increase maximum HP will increase your total HP, but not the pool of base HP available to learn skills.
  • Losing ends combat and costs an adventure, even if it was a free fight. Unlike Ed the Undying, you will not return to the fight. After exiting Torpor, you will regain full HP and will not be Beaten Up.
