Dhampir

Dhampirs are the offspring of a vampire and a human. They appear to be humans, though their skin often has a pallid or corpselike aspect. They have retractable canine fangs that appear normal when not in use.
These undead humanoids rarely, if ever, form communities because of their sparse population. In the few occurrences where dhampirs gather, it is usually in small groups that travel the world in mutual support of one another. For the most part, however, dhampirs tend to integrate themselves into the cultures and communes in which they are born. Although they generally prefer urban environments, living in such areas has proven to be dangerous to them, as many other humanoids view dhampirs as little different from their vampiric ancestors and are treated like any other undead creature. It is because of these undead-fearing sentiments that dhampirs often find themselves either struggling to disguise themselves in cities, or immigrating to more rural areas where there are simply less people to need to hide from.
