Summary0007143: Unable to catch vampirism from retired adventurer vampire.
DescriptionMy adventurer character successfully became a vampire by killing and drinking the blood of an NPC vampire; however, after retiring and bringing a new adventurer to my old character (approaching mainly through quick travel, since trying to walk through the town resulted in repeated crashes), I was unable to become a vampire by drinking my retired character's blood after killing my retired character. I reloaded and tried drinking spilled blood before killing my retired character, but without success.

My retired character is definitely still a vampire, and responded appropriately when called out as a night creature. My new character was still able to become a vampire by drinking an NPC vampire's blood that my retired character was still carrying.

Please upload a save that demonstrates the problem to http://dffd.wimbli.com/ and post the link here. Ideally, the save would have the vampiric blood ready to drink.

I remember, that I tried to become a vampire in 34.11 by drinking blood from a dwarf of an abandoned fortress, but nothing happens. This bug is not reported, but I think it could be related with this. Maybe you cannot become a vampire from the blood of a formerly controlled vampire.

Certainly! http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8916

As per the description, there should be both retired vampire blood and NPC vampire blood in the adventurer's backpack (unless I've messed up somehow); I also noted a game crash that quickly happens when I try to walk through that town.
