Pathfinder 2: building a Dhampir

[Zeveriin]

Hello! I'm new to Pathfinder 2 and I consider to play a Dhampir for the next campaign.

I really love the idea of Dhampir but I was not able to find anything information about their racial stats or traits they gain at the character creation??

Can anybody tell me how this works for them ?

The Dhampir is what is called a "Versatile Heritage" which means that it takes the place of your "natural" heritage you select with your Ancestry.

So for example, you could choose to be an Elven Dhampir by first selecting Elf as your ancestry, then Dhampir as your Heritage. You then gain access to Dhampir Heritage feats, as well as any features granted by the Heritage itself.

In the Dhampir's case, that means the Dhampir trait, Negative healing and Low-Light vision or an upgrade to Dark Vision for ancestries who naturally already have Low-Light vision.

And in case it wasn't clear, that means you can play a Dhampir of any ancestry.

It also means that your representation as a Dhampir comes pretty much solely through ancestry feats, and everything else is determined by base ancestry.

For example, there is a character in a game I am playing in that is a Gnome Dhampir. Which uses Gnome mechanics for things like Hit Points and speed, but has access to the Dhampir adjustments and ancestry feats - in addition to the normal Gnome feats.
