Unleash the Vampire: A New Class for D&D Players!

New Vampire Class Coming to D&D with Bound By Blood

Hey gamers! If you’ve ever wanted to embrace your inner vampire while playing Dungeons & Dragons but found yourself stuck being the only bloodsucker at the table, we’ve got some exciting news for you. A new supplement called Bound By Blood is on the way, and it’s set to change the game!

What’s in Store?

Developed by Ghostfire Gaming in collaboration with White Wolf, this upcoming expansion is designed specifically for D&D 5th Edition. It introduces a full-fledged vampire class that will let players dive into the rich lore of vampirism. Here’s what you can expect:

• Blood Points: Manage your resources wisely with a new system of blood points.
• Disciplines: Unleash your vampire powers through various bloodline abilities.
• Inner Beast: Navigate the struggles of your darker instincts, echoing themes from Vampire: The Masquerade.
• Medieval Adventure: Experience a thrilling journey set in the “Dark Ages” of vampire lore, taking players back to the heart of medieval Europe.

Not Just One Project

White Wolf has been teasing that Bound By Blood isn’t the only surprise in their bag of tricks. They’ve hinted at an exciting announcement at the upcoming Gen Con event, which has caused some confusion online. They clarified that while they’re thrilled about this project, it’s separate from their major reveal at the convention.

“We’re very excited about sharing the love for Vampires with even more people,” White Wolf stated, emphasizing that both projects stand on their own.

What’s Next for Vampire Fans?

As we move on from the mixed feelings around Bloodlines 2, the future looks promising for fans of Vampire: The Masquerade. Get ready for the upcoming narrative-driven CRPG, Eternal Whispers, which promises to deliver a story-rich experience reminiscent of Disco Elysium. Plus, Dimension 20’s latest series, City Council of Darkness, provides a humorous twist on the vampire theme, blending traditional lore with a Parks and Recreation vibe.

Release Date

Mark your calendars! Bound By Blood is set to drop in July and will be available on D&D Beyond. Following this release, D&D has more adventures lined up, including stories set in Greyhawk and a supplement for the world of Eberron called Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone.

Stay tuned for more updates, and get ready to channel your inner vampire!
