Monster Entry #001 Soul Vampire
The Soul Vampire is deemed by some the strongest form of vampiric entity. Capable of feeding off the very soul of its victims in order to satiate its endless hunger. The ways one can become a soul vampire are as uncountable as worlds in creation, yet one method is the most well known to those in the study of vampires.
Soul Burning, a skill that allows individuals to (as the name suggests) burn the energy of the soul directly in order to temporarily gain massive power. With the cost being of course the permanent evolution of ones race into that of a Soul Vampire. Even if one who was previously blessed by a god before their transformation, the blessing will be burned in the process upon the skills activation. The effect is irreversible in its nature and has no known cure at this time.
The only known method to completely kill a Soul Vampire is to starve it to death, though based on the relative strength of the individual prior to their transformation the duration before their soul sputters out may vary. Burned Blessings can also in some cases act as added fuel to keep the subject alive for longer periods past the souls initial burnout.
In terms of the Soul Vampires mental state, while sufficient satiation can lead to the individual regaining their lost sanity and previous mental faculties. This unfortunately does not last long, as the near constant hunger the curse inflicts on the individual will eventually lead to them turning hostile within mere hours after regaining previous mental faculties.
