Half human, half vampire, or a mixed descendant of a Dhampir and another race. Dhampirs tend to have semi-pale skin and the color of their irises are divided diagonally, the top half is always blood red and the bottom is any available to the other race. Dhampirs have a deep hatred for their vampiric parents and are more often than not shunned by humans and most other races. If you are a dhampir a half-elf is always your best friend. The two races have been allies since the dawn of the dhampir race.
