An Elven Vampire is an elf who has returned from death via the Elven Vampire strain of vampirism.

(All humanoids and monsterous humanoids are susceptible to different strains of vampirism, which include that of the basic Monster Manual vampire, that of the Nosferatu, that of the Vrykrolaka, and that of the Chiang-shi. There are also additional race-specific strains of vampirism that each target - and cannot be spread outside of - a specific race.)

In the case of elves, this race-specific vampirism is officially known as an Elven Vampire, and the strain itself is known as the Elven Vampire Strain. Hence, the term "Elven Vampires" refers not to all elves who are vampires, but only those vampire elves who specifically have the Elven Vampire Strain of vampirism.

To avoid this confusion, creatures affected by this strain are also called albesadow[1] or alternatively craenag-follei. [2]
