In Heroes 5, a Vampire should..
So, it's a good idea.
A Lich is a spellcaster; being a noble spellcaster is possible, but not necessary. A Vampire, on the other hand, represents the pinnacle of undead "evolution." Their minds are free, their bodies are strong and graceful. If I'm not mistaken, a classic vampire isn't even afraid of the sun; it's just that in daylight, they don't possess their special abilities and look almost like ordinary people.
All vampires are afraid of the sun!:mad: That's why they are vampires. Play The Elder Scrolls III. They take damage from it, or in Might and Magic 8, the Necromancer's Guild invented amulets for vampires, and the head of the guild isn't Sandro, but some vampire who gave a quest to go to the Temple and find something that places darkness over the territory. Or Korbu, in the quest, it is said that unlike other vampires, he has awakened... a CONSCIENCE, which is not typical for vampires! A vampire is not a human; play The Elder Scrolls III, where they are hated, and you can distinguish them from humans by the shape of their head and their eyes. And if anyone should be considered the pinnacle of undead evolution, it's the Bone Dragon
:eek: A vampire is the pinnacle of evolution?:confused: In Might and Magic 8, they had immunity to mind control, while liches have immunity to both mind and body control, and also have 20 resistance to elements.

I must disagree, as you are only considering vampires based on two game worlds, and as we know, there are many. The most important one, in my opinion, is the AD&D world of Harry Gigax. Firstly, it appeared earlier and is based exclusively on mythological creatures. Secondly, it is the most detailed and has been edited three (already three and a half :D) times. So, in this world, vampires are presented as noble beings who hate daylight, which is fatal to them. They are indifferent to garlic and silver, but this cannot be said about holy water. By the way, I recommend watching "Interview with the Vampire." This film best conveys their true (if one can express it that way :D) essence. And the depiction of them as monsters is all the work of Hollywood, to scare people :)
In the lower mythology of the peoples of Europe, a dead person who rises from the grave at night or appears in the form of a bat, sucking the blood of sleeping people, and causing nightmares. Vampires were "unclean" corpses - suicides, those who died prematurely, and those who died from vampire bites. It was believed that their bodies did not decompose in the graves, and their evil deeds could be stopped by driving an aspen stake into the vampire's body, beheading it, etc. Garlic, iron, bell ringing, and other things also served as protection against vampires

Please explain, because I didn't quite understand what it is:confused:

Let him swing his sword!!! it's a battle!!! and then he can drink blood in his free time away from the "scrap"... we aren't saying that demons should bring a vat of tar to the battlefield, are we???:)))... or that druids should walk around with a bag of fly agarics and seeds of Uzbekistani grass....:)))
IMHO—the sword—and that's it!!!!
