A vampire spawn uses the base creature’s stats and abilities except as noted here.
CR: Same as the base creature + 1. Alignment: Any evil. Type: The creature’s type changes to undead. Do not recalculate class Hit Dice, BAB, or saves. Senses: A vampire spawn gains darkvision to 60 feet. Armor Class: Natural armor increases to +4, unless the base creature’s natural armor is already +4 or higher. Hit Dice: Change all racial Hit Dice to d8s. Class Hit Dice are unaffected. As undead, vampire spawn use their Cha modifier to determine bonus hit points (instead of Con). Defensive Abilities: A vampire spawn gains channel resistance +2, DR 5/silver, resistance cold and electricity 10, and fast healing 2. Weaknesses: A vampire spawn has the same weaknesses of the vampire that created it.
Resurrection Vulnerability (Su): A raise dead or similar spell cast on a vampire spawn destroys it (Will negates). Using the spell in this way does not require a material component.
Melee: A vampire spawn gains a slam attack if the base creature didn’t have one. Damage for the slam depends on the vampire spawn’s size (see Bestiary 301). Special Attacks: A vampire spawn gains a vampire’s blood drain and dominate special attacks. The vampire who created the spawn can influence a spawn’s dominated creature as if she had dominated it herself.
Energy Drain (Su): A creature hit by a vampire spawn’s slam (or other natural weapon) gains 1 negative level. This ability only triggers only once per round.
Special Qualities: A vampire spawn gains the gaseous form, shadowless, and spider climb abilities of a vampire. Ability Scores: Cha +2. Skills: Spawn gain a +8 racial bonus on Acrobatics and Stealth checks. Feats: Spawn gain Skill Focus (Perception) as a bonus feat.
