Vlad is my son, and he has real spirit... well obviously not REAL spirit, but he has a lust for unlife that could easily be mistaken for spirit.

Vlad was recently killed when the inhabitants of the local town "Meatsylvania" came up to the castle on their annual uprising against the "Oppressing Vampires of Castle Rypgam". We brought him back as soon as we could find some virgin's blood (virgins can be so hard to find these days... when we finaly found a virgin she charged us 110k gold for a small sample of her blood! Can you believe that? What is the world coming to... I would have taken it by force of course, but being a virgin is such a profitable buisness in this country that she was able to afford a pair of bodyguards with repeater steak guns). And now he is back on top form... which is just as well really, because before the incident he had taken a nasty injury that had left him with mere mortal strength.
