Baldur's Gate 3

Innate Weaponry Evolutions
The most powerful thing about a vampire is their natural weapons. You utilize your Bite attack and Claws to the fullest with these evolutions.

Agonizing Bite: Your fangs become longer and deadlier. You add your Constitution modifier to the amount of Necrotic damage dealt by your Bite.

Bilu Blood: By spending this Blood, you can have your next unarmed Claw attack deal Acid damage instead of Slashing damage.
Prerequisites: 4th Level  
Blood Cost: 1

Hemorrhaging Claws: Before you make an unarmed attack on your turn, you can spend 2 Blood to cause your attacks to make the target bleed viciously. On a hit, they make a Constitution saving throw at the start of their turns for the next minute. On a failed save, they take additional Necrotic damage equal to your Constitution Modifier. On a success, they do not take this damage. They repeat this saving throw at the start of their turns for the entire duration.
Prerequisites: 5th level

Blood Puppet: You can spend Blood to temporarily gain control of a corpse. Choose a corpse that you can see; you spend an additional 3 Blood for each size category of the corpse above Medium (up to a maximum of 12 at Gargantuan). The corpse rises up, moves up to half its movement speed to a space within melee attack range of the target, and makes a single melee attack from one of its available actions. After it makes this attack, it drops back down on the ground, lifeless once more. You cannot reuse corpses for this feature. 

Additionally, you can instead convert a single corpse that died within the last minute into a Vampiric Mist; this consumes the corpse.

You may take a total maximum number of Traits equal to your Constitution Modifier. You can drop a selected trait at any time to gain a new one after the required amount of feedings.
