    Default Deity for Lawful Evil Vampire?

    I'm trying to think of a concept.

    I have a character that's going to be Lawful Evil and a female Vampire Sorceress.
    Which deity would that character most likely follow?

    In general, most deities are allowed.

    I was thinking of Wee Jas but I've read a few things that she dislikes unwilling undead etc.
    But what about willing, vampire worshipers? Would she accept those?
    Could a small cult of Lawful Evil vampires worship her?

    Or do you suggest some other god?
    Please, no random deities for mechanical purposes.
    I want the most fitting thematically. So Nerull and Vecna are out, I think.
    And Kanchelsis since he is too Chaotic and the stereotypical vampire.

    Wee Jaas is ok with undead, as long as you chose it. She hates it when people force undeath on someone else (this is generaly only for intelligent undead as unintelligent undead are basically cheap golems) So in short, yes she would be totally fine with your willing Vampire Sorceress

    and even then, you could always be part of a what would be considered a heresy following Wee Jas

    Like a cabal or cult of Lawful vampires that turn others willingly as part of a family or Order?
    This is what I had in mind. Her belonging with them.

    Also a good idea for such an order perhaps?
    I had the "Order of the Crimson Blade" in mind or something like that.
    Or "Order of the Ruby Blade".

    I'm open to suggestions about a lawful vampiric order of Wee Jas. :)

    Not bad, if you want some ideas for a "family" of vampires, id go read up about the Von Carsteins, pretty much the most famous Vampires in Warhammer. Also very badass

    My bad. I was wondering if you have better ideas for a name of that order.
    Basically a lawful order of vampires of pretty much any class almost.

    Blackguards, warriors, clerics, monks, sorcerers etc.

    I thought "Order of the Ruby Blade" pretty much nailed it.
    And isn't there that ruby dagger in the MiC for Wee Jas followers?
    Make a decent symbol for the group.

    'Prax' is fine.

    Take your forklift safety seriously, kids. You'll lose, every time.

    Not to Mention Ruby Knight Vindicator, a Divine/Martial Adept class from tome of Battle, which is specifically themed around Wee Jas.

    Yup, very recently I realized that Ruby Knight's is actually a Wee Jas' "knights" order. I thought it was a generic class with a cool name.

    I think I will go with "Order of the Crimson Blade" as it is similar to the color of a ruby but fits the vampiric order.

    Another question. Necromancers are some of the Jasidin (Wee Jas' followers). And Blackhawk748 said that mindless undead are basically mindless golems.

    So would such a necromancer of Wee Jas use undead temporarily in places that it's allowed as guardians for example and then dismissing them?

    In short:
    Mindless undead are allowed for creation and specific purposes, like guardians or temporary help (lawful)
    Intelligent undead require permission from the person? Turning them into vampires for example.

    Basically, I want an In Character reason to use Animate Dead and Create (Greater) Undead as a follower of Wee Jas.
    Though being a cult and representing the Lawful Evil tendency of Wee Jas, it can work as a "heresy".
