I had a thought for an end bad guy for a level 22 campaign in a world im building. I went ahead and statted him out because I was bored. So i would love to see what the playgound thinks. A bit of backstory:
His name is Lukell, an evil wizard who took magical power from the gods. To punish him, they turned him into a creature of the night who must feed on the living to survive. He took this curse and turned it into a boon through a ritual that was originally supposed to expel this curse from him. He botched the ritual and further dug the curse into his flesh. However, he found that the daylight did not have as much power over him as before. He could walk in the daylight. He could cross running water. all of the normal vampire's wekanesses did not affect him. He was all powerful. It took several hundred years to finally find a way to destroy him. Now the ashes of his head have been uncovered...
So please let me know what you think. Any helpful suggestions are appreciated as well. Thanks!Lukell, the First Vampire

WEAKNESSES: Vampire lords have far fewer weaknesses than normal vampires, a benefit of their quest for power. Vampire lords cannot be repelled by garlic or holy symbols, though they can be turned. Mere presentation of a holy symbol has no effect. They have no fear of mirrors, and they cast reflections as living beings do. Vampire lords can cross over or through running water with no impediments. They are not harmed in any way by immersion in running water. A vampire lord is not as vulnerable to sunlight as a normal vampire, and can go about in broad daylight if it desires. Under sunlight, it takes a -4 penalty to all ability scores and on all attacks, saves, and skill checks. Also, a vampire lord in sunlight cannot use any of its supernatural powers. Victims of its domination power are not freed of the vampire lord's control during daylight hours; the vampire lord can verbally command any creature in its thrall even in direct sunlight. Spells that produce sunlight effects cannot harm a vampire lord; only direct light from the sun can weaken it. If the vampire lord is destroyed while exposed to direct sunlight, it seems to die, but unless the body is disposed of as described below, it assumes gaseous form as soon as the sun sets and attempts to return to its coffin. A vampire lord is not killed outright by a wooden stake driven through its heart, though the stake does cause normal damage if it can bypass the creature's damage reduction. The only way to make sure that a vampire lord does not return is to cut its head from its body, burn the body and the head separately, scatter the ashes from the body over running water, immerse the ashes from the head in holy water, and bury the immersed ashes in consecrated ground. However, if the head ashes are ever unearthed and somehow separated from the holy water, dried thoroughly, and then subjected to an unhallow spell, the vampire lord can regenerate in a week if the ashes are placed inside one of its places of rest.
His name is Lukell, an evil wizard who took magical power from the gods. To punish him, they turned him into a creature of the night who must feed on the living to survive. He took this curse and turned it into a boon through a ritual that was originally supposed to expel this curse from him. He botched the ritual and further dug the curse into his flesh.
