Vampires are fast, strong and blood-thirsty entities, which do not like the sun, but don't fear the night, and the best thing is: You can become one!
This mod allows you to become a vampire with all it's benefits and drawbacks.
After being bitten by a vampire or manually injecting some vampire blood you get an effect called "Sanguinare Vampiris" which eventually turns you into a vampire.
Alternatively you can decide to become a vampire hunter and start fighting those evil creatures.
Get an overview about this mod here: Overview
As a vampire
As a vampire you don't need to eat that dry bread or these strange fruits called "apples", you prefer some red and tasty blood, which you can to suck from animals or preferably villagers. If you are careful they might regenerate their blood over time, but if you suck all their blood at once, they might become vampires as well. You also might notice that you got red eyes and fangs.
In the beginning you are a very normal and weak vampire, but by performing vampiric rituals you can level up and gain new powers. Besides becoming stronger and faster, you get skill points which can be used to unlock abilities like night vision, transformation into a bat, teleport and many more.
However, becoming a strong vampire also has it's drawbacks as you start taking more damage from the sun and have to face stronger vampire hunter. So you probably want to shift your activities to the night, unlock night vision and craft yourself a coffin to sleep through the day. Don't forget to colour your coffin to make it the rest of your home decoration.
Become a vampire hunter
If you don't like vampires, this might mod might still be interesting. You can choose to become a vampire hunter instead and start hunting down those evil vampires. Equipped with crossbows and other useful weapons you can jump into action. By collecting items, fighting strong vampires and exploring the world you can level up and unlock advanced skills which improve your hunting ability or even allow you to use some of the vampires powers.
World
There are a few additions to the world. Besides new mobs there is a new biome called vampire biome. This foggy biome mostly accommodates vampiric creatures and is the home of vampire barons you need to fight for some ritual items.
Since vampires like to suck blood from villagers, they are now protected by vampire hunters. If too many people in a village are bitten they will call for reinforcements or if it gets too dire, the villagers will just grab their pitchforks and start hunting vampires themselves.
Villages can be controlled by a vampires or hunters which grants them additional benefits. If you want to capture a village you can start a raid.
Multiplayer:
This mod plays well on multiplayer servers. Players can choose to join the vampire faction or the the hunter faction or even mostly ignore this mod if they want. You also can enable PVP only between factions, so the war between vampires and humans can take place organized.
Most hostile creatures appear in different levels. The strength of a spawned creature is affected by the level of nearby players. Around strong vampire players, strong hunters will spawn, but around normal humans only weak vampires will appear.
For common places (e.g. spawn) you can place (cheat only) sunscreen beacons, so vampires can visit them during the day without taking sun damage.
There also is a Morpheus like config option, where you can specify which percentage of players have to be in a coffin to make it night. Also interesting might be the option to allow/deny players from infecting other human players with vampirism (hunters are immune due to their garlic injection).

Spotlights/Tutorials:
Minecraft 1.7.10
The 1.7.10 version differs a lot from the the newer version as they are a complete rewrite. Even though they are quite similar there quite a few smaller and larger differences. So if you see videos/tutorials about the 1.7.10 version don't expect that things work the same way in 1.12 or vice-versa.

Played this mod for a week now and i like it, it's a lot of fun.. But there is too many vampire roaming the world and it's annoying when there is scream spam at night, i tried to look for any config to turn down the spawns of the vampires but i couldn't find any. Am i blind or isn't there any config to turn down the vampire spawns?
Hello! Will you become a vampire no matter what once you get attacked by a vampire in this mod?
Alguien me podría decir como configurar el mod para recibir dos puntos de habilidad por nivel, intente descargar el mod que lo hace automáticamente, pero no es compatible con el forge que uso ni con la versión del mod, me sería de gran ayuda si alguien me dice como hacerlo.
does anyone know the folder paths to reskin the vampire forest so that it doesn't clash with the appearance of biomes o plenty worlds?
In reply to cinnamonsnorter:
How does it clash with BOP?
You can change the texture of cursed earth ("vampirism:textures/block/cursed_earth.png") and the flower ("vampirism:textures/block/vampire_orchid").
The trees are, unfortunately, spruce wood, but that will be changed at some point).
Same for any grass.
In reply to maxanier:
thank you!
well personal taste is some of it, but I have most of the barren and dark biomes turned off on BOP, so they're always surrounded by bright green mountains and forests. lol.
In reply to maxanier:
oh, uh, what determines the color of the leaves?
You talked to a youtuber, I think there will be new items, can you give some spoilers?Helloyour mod is very nice and I want to say something, there must be a special vampire village formed in the vampire forest and this village should be added to locate
I would appreciate it if you make it (google translate sry)
hola buenas tardes presento un error con el mod no me deja subir al nivel 15 de vampiro y eso me fastidia
can play the mod it crashes with a java.lang.NullPointerException: No data is present for column: [40, 3] error and I cant fix it or don't know how to.
In reply to starkillerone24:
could you upload the whole crash-report? Otherwise we are unable to help
just a suggestion, you should add proper shapeshifting, illusions/telepathy, or telekinesis to vamp lord players, to make them more feared
This mod is amazing for faction and rpg-like gameplays but I feel like the vampire forest should be like a maze of very tall trees with log branches where vampires can rest and leave as bat extremely easily but normal/hunter players get an hard time just even to get out of that place unharmed. I also feel like the corruption doesn't make much sense because looks like mud and it's where there are also green growing trees (just darker leaves and grass would be better than corrupted dirt). expecially villages look awful because the terrain get that weird color and all around it is still the old biome. last thing: uptading the 1.12.2 is appreciated because many medieval-like mod aren't yet avaible for newer verions, sorry for bothering with this unneccessary feedback
In reply to scroven:
Thank you for your feedback. A vampire forest rework is planned/in progress :)
how do I disable the vampire eyes and fangs?
In reply to mr_drospoter:
Either in client config or by selecting any invisible eye/fang type
In reply to maxanier:
Thank you, I have custom player models and the eyes were causing some trouble. by the way, I really like this mod, you did a great job :)
is there any way to prevent vampires from infecting you?
Are you planning to update the 1.12.2 version?
