Legendary Resistance
(3/Day) .
If the vampire fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.
Misty Escape .
When it drops to 0 hit points outside its resting place, the vampire transforms into a cloud of mist
(as in the Shapechanger trait) instead of falling unconscious, provided that it isn't in sunlight or running water.
If it can't transform, it is destroyed.
While it has 0 hit points in mist form, it can't revert to its vampire form, and it must reach its resting place within 2 hours or be destroyed.
Once in its resting place, it reverts to its vampire form.
It is then paralyzed until it regains at least 1 hit point.
After spending 1 hour in its resting place with 0 hit points, it regains 1 hit point.
Regeneration .
The vampire regains 20 hit points at the start of its turn if it has at least 1 hit point and isn't in sunlight or running water.
If the vampire takes radiant damage or damage from holy water, this trait doesn't function at the start of the vampire's next turn.

Actions

Unarmed Strike
(Vampire Form Only) .
Melee Weapon Attack : +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.
Hit : 8
(1d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage.
Instead of dealing damage, the vampire can grapple the target
(escape DC 18).

(3d6) necrotic damage.
The target's hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the necrotic damage taken, and the vampire regains hit points equal to that amount.
The reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest.
The target dies if this effect reduces its hit point maximum to 0.
A humanoid slain in this way and then buried in the ground rises the following night as a vampire spawn under the vampire's control.
Charm .
The vampire targets one humanoid it can see within 30 feet of it.
If the target can see the vampire, the target must succeed on a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or be charmed by the vampire.
The charmed target regards the vampire as a trusted friend to be heeded and protected.
Although the target isn't under the vampire's control, it takes the vampire's requests or actions in the most favorable way it can, and it is a willing target for the vampire's bit attack.
Each time the vampire or the vampire's companions do anything harmful to the target, it can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Otherwise, the effect lasts 24 hours or until the vampire is destroyed, is on a different plane of existence than the target, or takes a bonus action to end the effect.

The beasts remain for 1 hour, until the vampire dies, or until the vampire dismisses them as a bonus action.
