The Dark Disease
The dark disease is not to be confused with Vampirism. The dark disease will make you sicker and sicker until you finally turn into a vampire. This will take around 3 in-game day-night cycles. Use /v s,show to see your current state of disease.

To contract the disease you can use an altar of darkness. You also risk infection if you accept a blood offer from a vampire or engage in close-combat with one. Vampires may decide if they intend to infect during combat or not. For each attack (from either you or the vampire) the risk is 5% with intent and an 0.3% without (/v i,intend).

To stop the disease you can use an altar of light or holy water (sparkling splash potion). The disease will not reset if you log off or die.

To cure actual vampirism you need to use an altar of light.

Blood Transfer
Anyone (both vampires and humans) can use the commands /v o,offer and /v a,accept to trade blood. What you actually trade is food-level. This way vampires can have “blood-slaves”. It’s also a way to transfer the dark disease. You can at most offer 20 (all your blood). If you offer all 20 the infection risk is 100%. If you offer 4 the risk is 20% etc.

Drinking blood from others is visible to those within 7 block. If you want to keep your vampirism secret you must thus avoid drinking blood in crowded areas.

Finally we suggest you try drinking blood from yourself. Try /v offer yourOwnPlayerName

The Bloodlust
Bloodlust is the main vampire advantage. Close combat damage is increased by 20% but most importantly the vampires run with double speed and jump six times as high with increased air maneuvering.

Vampires usually have a stationary foodlevel. In bloodlust their foodlevel will however drop on a time basis. After roughly 1min the vampire is too hungry/thirsty to use bloodlust.

A vampire in bloodlust emits a smoke-trail while moving. 

The Nightvision
Vampires can use night vision any time they want. It can be toggled on and off using the command “/v n”. The night vision is free and does not consume food level. It works just like the potion effect but you don’t emit particles. This way others can’t see you are using nightvision.

The Sun
The Sun is the main vampire dis-advantage. When vampires are exposed to sunlight their body temperature will increase fast. Vampires simply can’t stand sunlight. At high temperatures vampires will burst into flame and become blinded. Wearing armor or hiding in shade will help vampires keep their cool.

Stakes and Holy Water
A bloodlusting vampire is a very strong opponent. They are however very weak against wooden stakes and holy water. Rely on these two tools and you may protect yourself as the sun goes down.

Wooden stakes deal three times the damage of a diamond-sword to vampires. All of these items are considered wooden stakes: Stick, Wooden Sword, Wooden Axe, Wooden Pickaxe, Wooden Spade, Wooden Hoe, Sign, Torch, Redstone Torch, Fence and Fence Gate.

Holy water is a splash potion. The ingredients required are 1 Water Bottle and 1 Lapis Lazuli Dye. Hold the water bottle and right-click an altar of light to create the splash potion. In your inventory this potion is called “Sparkling Potion” and seems to have no effects though it actually has two.

The potion cures those infected with the dark disease. It will not cure full vampires though. A vampire hit with holy water will suffer a 70% temperature increase. This means vampire will go blind and catch fire if they are hit by two holy water potions. The only damage taken is the one from burning but as the vampire is in no condition to fight the best way of action in that case is to flee before someone gets close with a wooden stake.
