Hey all, I recently was thinking of building a character based off a precious concept of mine, that being a half-Orc fighter that specializes in greatswording to death vampires.

I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to give sufficient crunch to that flavor using the fighter class somehow.

A spell-less inquisitor in heavy armor if you would?

Any help would be appreciated.

You're gonna have some issues killing a vampire with a greatsword, unless it's made out of wood and jammed through it's heart. Vampires automatically turn into mist at 0 hp.

Well, if you find and smash up its coffin too (Can be no more than 9 miles distant from the fight) then it's screwed, so there's that...

True, I guess I was just wondering if there were any decent feats or abilitites. Wanted a spelless heavy armor full BAB inquisitor type, same vein as the spelless paladin temple champion.

Hmm, Ordained Defender Warder might fit if you can go Path of War. No spellcasting per se, but Full BAB, Heavy armour, gets a Blessing/Inquisition/Domain.

Otherwise, it doesn't get Heavy Armour, but there is the Grave Warden (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/hybrid-classes/slayer/archetypes/paizo---slayer-archetypes/grave-warden) Slayer.
