The corpse-like face of the half-krolvin strigoi bears little resemblance to a living half-krolvin save in its heavy brow and dense brows.  Eyes like pits of shadow stare out from the sunken hollows of the strigoi's altered visage, hungry and hateful.  The strigoi has yellowed fangs that distend her lips in an ugly fashion.  Her motions are distinctly unnatural, fluid in a way that a living being's are not. 

Appraisal:

The half-krolvin strigoi is medium in size, about six feet high in her current state.

Hunting Strategies

Strigoi are agile melee attackers, attacking unarmed with Closed fist and ensnares but will pick up other enemies' weapons and attack with them as if they are unfamiliar with weapons.

Strigoi have a unique leaping bite maneuver that deals puncture damage:

A desiccated half-krolvin strigoi falls into a crouch before springing at you like an animal, his yellowed fangs flashing!
[SMR result: 109 (Open d100: 88, Bonus: 1)]
Latching onto your neck, a desiccated half-krolvin strigoi suckles noisily, lapping down blood from the wound!
Your preparation to resist puncturing damage helps to lessen the effects as you are struck!
   ... 8 points of damage!
   Well placed shot to the neck!
   You are stunned for 2 rounds!

The bite seems to target the neck first if the area is uninjured, and can easily result in an instant kill on characters that do not have puncture resistance or other mitigating protections.

Strigoi go into a frenzy from the scent of blood. It is unclear if this is caused by the bite maneuver, or just the presence of a bleeding character in the room:

The scent of blood in the air drives a desiccated half-krolvin strigoi to madness!

This boosts their Attack Strength.

Strigoi also seem to have special evasive abilities, although this may just be a different flavoring for dodge messaging:

A desiccated half-krolvin strigoi flows bonelessly out of the way of your attack, leaving you off-balance!
