Vampire's Tooth

Version 0.21: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

An ivory-like quick blade that looks like it could have been crafted from the tooth of some enormous predatory creature. It is lethally vampiric, and restores a greater portion of life to its user than other vampiric weapons.

Vampiric brand

This weapon always heals its wielder for the full damage it does when the vampiric effect is triggered against a susceptible target.

Desirability

Previously the Vampire's Tooth was a +4 dagger, making it less than amazing, especially for end game. However, with version .22 Vampire's Tooth was upgraded to a +12 quick blade, making it the most highly enchanted quick blade possible, and worthwhile even when not fighting enemies affected by vampirism. Of note, it can also appear in an early vault that makes it the earliest available quick blade as well.
