Transmutation: Vampire Alteration

[The Butcher]

Subject 3202
Sex: Female
Race: Human
Sub-type: Vampire
Weight: ~150lbs (68 kg)
Length: ~5'4" (162.6 cm)
Age: Unknown
Color: Pale skin, black hair.

-Captive Lilene Jora, female human vampire, age: unknown.

Subject 3202 is an incredibly powerful female vampire who is infamous for the distress caused across the valley by its actions. In its life before undeath, Subject 3202 focused on the arts of its own body, maximizing the capabilities of its human mold; it was a monk. With the enhanced supernatural powers of undeath and vampiric blood, Subject 3202 became an unparalleled creature in strength, agility, and physical capabilities. However, I was forced to take it captive when it turned its capabilities against the enclave, attacking two of our most prestigious members.

The following experiments on Subject 3202 is to ensure the safety of myself and the enclave when the creature is released. As examined by the Triumvirate's efforts, simple destruction of the subject is not enough; Subject 3202's blood gifts it with theoretical immortality. We will hold Subject 3202 in captivity until its thirst for blood weakens it. Then, with the assistance of Alcazar Tel'Rune, both the Khazark and a powerful necromancer, I will physically dissect Subject 3202 and find a means of disabling it -- permanently.

Experiment 1.0

The focus of this experiment is to magically hinder Subject 3202's natural regenerative abilities so we can successfully dissect and examine it. With the combined effort of myself and Alcazar, the projected rate of failure is infinitely small.

Results: Success. Much of the proportions and physical mechanics of Subject 3202 are not unlike that of a standard female of its height and weight. However, the mechanics which power these machinations are much different than any human. I will record the results carefully before beginning the second experiment.

The blood seems to be the most significant component of Subject 3202. For the most part, this is what separates Subject 3202 from a typical undead. Being such, my focus now rests upon her heart, which is the muscle responsible for circulating this blood. It is spoken by vampire hunters that driving a stake into the heart of lesser vampires will annihilate them for this reason. However, this particular case will require much more than a simple stake.

Experiment 2.0
I intend on compromising the most vital muscle in the vampires body. Ordinarily, this would destroy Subject 3202, only to have it reincarnate a period of time afterwards. However, I have a plan to ensure that I can remove Subject 3202's heart without killing it. After examining theory and data produced by Alcazar, and combining it with the data I collected from dissecting Subject 3200, I will replace Subject 3202's heart with Subject 3200's. This experiment will have two phases.

Phase 1: I will contain Subject 3202's heart in a phylactery crafted by Demathos, Alcazar, and myself. The phylactery will be disguised as a simple amulet so as to not raise suspicion. There is no accurate prognosis on the properties of the necklace once created, but Alcazar suspects that it will endow its wearer with the abilities of a vampire -- without the repercussions of being one.



Phase 2: Subject 3202 will then have the heart surgically transmuted into its chest. The significance of this alteration is, within Subject 3200's heart, I have endowed it with simple promises it cannot break. It is against the nature of Subject 3200 to break any bond or promise; that is the nature of any Horned Devil.

Results: Success. Subject 3202 incapable of making any attack against the enclave, as it is bound by the heart of the devil that now pumps her vampiric blood throughout her body. Furthermore, I have endowed the demonic heart with one promise that is unbeknownst to both Pyras and Alcazar. If I destroy the phylactery which contains Subject 3202's heart, I will gain absolute control over Subject 3202. This will allow me access to the vampires' coffins should I ever need to permanently destroy the vampires. However, this is not my goal, and I will avoid every reason to use it; this is simply to ensure that the vampires will always remain peaceful in their transactions with the enclave.

After analyzing and extrapolating theory based on the results of Subject 3202, I am ready to press this project further. While the previous experiments were to test and understand the constitution and behavior of vampires, this experiment is meant to emulate a few characteristics of a vampire. In particular, this experiment will study vampires' aversion to sunlight through the data and blood collected from Subject 3202 and attempt to transfer these weaknesses to a different host. Otherwise, there is no clear objective outside of testing the capacity of Transmutation.


Subject 3250
Sex: Male
Race: Human
Sub-type: Unknown
Weight: ~200lbs (90.72kg)
Length: ~6" (182.88 cm)
Age: Unknown
Color: Pale skin, black hair.

Experiment 1.0
I have selected Subject 3250 based solely on its affinity for the light and its hatred for vampires. Its ability to survive the experiment should exceed a typical specimen. The large portion of this experiment will focus on one organ: Subject 3250's epidermis, which will alter its entire integumentary system in kind. Several methods will be considered, from simple ingested concoctions, heavily altered serums, and skin grafting.
