Detail for the Mod:
Bite from Astarion inflicts Bloodless as normal but also gives the ability of Vampire Bite. With this ability being tied to Bloodless: it will go away on a long rest as normal in the game.. unless you decide to embrace your darker tendencies and feed (Using Vampire Bite). Upon feeding you gain Undead status and are now fully a vampire with the ability to permanently have the skills to use Vampire Bite, Vampire Claw attack and Dark Vision.
Also, upon feeding you will gain the full powers of a vampire which include Mist Form, Shape change to humanoid, Speak with Dead, Summon Undead from dead body, Bat Form and Charm. In addition, while you are fed, you heal while in shadow conditions at 5 HP + Level per Turn. You can also infect others with Bloodless and if those characters feed, they can fully turn to a vampire as well. Just remember you have to feed daily for each long rest brings back the thirst for blood and the powers that go with it...
Abilities Gained from Bloodless when Bitten (Removed on long rest):
Vampire Bite: Have the ability to feed on blood with Vampire Bite to gain the Happy effect and become a "Full" Vampire if you feed while bloodless.
Note on Bloodless: If you never feed with the Vampire Bite while bloodless: You don't become UNDEAD or a vampire, so bloodless will removed on long rest like normal with no long-term effect. This way Astarion can bite people in party in camp cut scenes (or for normal feeding) and no one becomes a vampire automatically (Only when they feed while bloodless).
Base Abilities as a Full Vampire Who Has Not Fed (Permanent):
Do be aware that the Bloodless effect and other powers can impact NPCs as well so be careful who you feed on in battle or you may find yourself in a fight with a full vampire as well
(Tag of Undead: This is given permanently upon first feeding from when they have bloodless. Sets them as Tag Undead. though not shown on character windo
