Talk:Vampire

Almost all of this is uncited material and references Earth folklore and not Toril folklore. There's nothing in any Forgotten Realms resource about vampires being held at bay by garlic.

I think most of this page should be gutted, as it is extremely misleading. – User:Westwardman


 * Thanks, I'll look through it and try to clean it up. — BadCatMan (talk) 00:34, September 22, 2019 (UTC)


 * Actually, a lot of it is D&D lore: garlic repelled vampires in 2e and 3e, while 4e removed this and 5e neglects to mention garlic at all. The anonymous user who added the text was generally referring to D&D concepts. However, they were also citing 3rd-party sourcebooks. I've begun removing the passages so they're unusable. — BadCatMan (talk) 01:18, September 22, 2019 (UTC)


 * I've chipped in a little bit by expanding on the weaknesses - added the stuff that's described in the 5E monster manual. EngineerDali (talk) 07:10, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
