== About vampire spawn ==
== About vampire spawn ==
Vampire spawn are created when a [[Vampire]] bites and drinks the blood of another creature. Once the spawn is born, they are subservient entirely to their creator. They may only regain their free-will through the death of their creator, or reciprocally drinking their masters blood to become a true vampire. [[Astarion]] is a notable exception to this rule, regaining his free will through being infected by a [[tadpole]].
{{quote|Subservient to the one who created them, vampire spawn are deadly hunters both ravenous and proud.}}

Vampire spawn do not possess the powerful abilities of a true vampire, though they suffer from the usual afflictions. They are [[Sunlight Hypersensitivity|hypersensitive]] to sunlight, making spells such as {{SAI|Daylight}} useful against them. Vampire spawn also have resistance to physical and [[necrotic]] damage.
