Hey, does the Vampire class's Vicious Assault become magical?
I can't find anything in book, so I just wanted to make sure. :)

The vampire class doesn't get innate magical attacks from any of it's features. It doesn't wholly fit the archetype: the vampiric curse grants power to hunt and feed off mortals, not ghosts or fiends. But, it would not be unbalanced for a DM to allow you to gain magical attacks at 6th level, like a monk's ki-empowered strike.

Alternately, you and your DM could work magical attacks into the story: maybe you find a ring that lets you beat down ghosts as though they had physical form, perhaps you silver your claws to hunt down that werewolf that's been harassing your peasantry, or you spend some of your immortal time gaining proficiency with longswords so you can wield your family's magical heirloom.

Under the Vampire Archetypes, the monster of the night skill reads "Hunter's Gaze. You can cast the spell Hunter's Mark a number of times a day equal to your Charisma Modifier. When you reach" And then just ends. Was there more to this ability, or is the "When you reach" a leftover from an earlier idea?

That's just a typo, left over from previous revisions. It'll be gone in the next update

There is a cantrip missing from this product, one called "Mind Shadows", that is listed in the warlock spell list. Do you happen to know what that cantrip does, it isn't on either version of this product.

That cantrip was renamed to "Harrow Thoughts" (which is present in the document), but it looks like it never got changed in the Warlock Spell list.

I never had the chance to use this book when it came out, even though my backup was a Vryloka (half-vampire) vampire. I loved the idea of a vampire class! :) Do you have any plans to convert Heroes of the Feywild, by any chance? I miss my Unseelie Agent Drow Ranger something fierce! Thanks!

Can the Half-Vampire race take the Vampire class?

Yes. However, the Half-Vampire "Taste for Blood" feature wont stack with the Vampire "Blood Drinker" feature: they are intended to be separate features for all intents and purposes.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
