Sinspawn is a mark of undeath applied to the figure of the second circle of the Inferno after that figure’s ritual death on the Flying Dutchman.
Like a dhampir, the bearer has superhuman strength and reflexes, sharpened wit and magnetic presence; the body ceases to be a living thing. Other effects are a supernatural hunger, sensitivity to sunlight and a shift in the soul’s loyalty. The patron is a serpent entity that demands the recruitment of companions (see Great Serpent).
