Vampires: Nocturnal Predators
If Vampires are nocturnal supernatural predators who hunt for blood, why do they not level have Night Vision on their list of natural abilities? They probably should also have a keen sense of smell, but no night vision is senseless.

I assume you mean Revised edition, I currently only have the originals. How good is "excellent"?Grazzik wrote: Thu Nov 23, 2023 7:26 pm WB1r pg 27 right side of the page under "Nightvision"... vampires have excellent nightvision capabilities

Yes, 1600ft in total darkness, no ambient light required. Vampires were substantially changed in many ways in the revised version. It can be confusing if you don't specify which book you are using - the original WB1, the revised WB1, the Vampire Sourcebook or any of the other PB books you may use that stat out vampires.AlanGunhouse wrote: Thu Nov 23, 2023 7:38 pmI assume you mean Revised edition, I currently only have the originals.

In the Original WB1 Vampire Kingdom Pg. 26, first column under "Abilities Natural to all vampires" the second ability is nightvisiion. The next ability is smell blood. It is also mention, although without specific range, on pages 14 and 15 under the natural abilities of the master. secondary, and wild vampires.AlanGunhouse wrote: Thu Nov 23, 2023 8:20 pmThank you.

“No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand. The Centauri learned this lesson once, we will teach it to them again. Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.”

My real question was about Nightbane Wampyrs and how many of the natural vampire abilities they share (or lack).
