- Gwent description
Protofleder is the unevolved ancestor[1] of the vampire known as fleder. The species is first introduced in the Blood and Wine expansion and can only encountered in the unusual caves of Hen Gàidh, where a gate between the vampires' world opened then closed. They emit a red glow from their bodies that dies out when killed.
The members of this species are characterized by their considerable strength and agility as well as the strange glow they emit, a trait most likely tied to their otherworldly nature. Protofleders have never had significant contact with the outside world, having spent their entire time on our planet in the Unseen Elder's cave, whose atmosphere is very similar to that of their home world.
Protofleders have strong regeneration powers, so Black Blood and vampire oil can be used to weaken them. Then use a combination of dodges, the IgniSign and quick attacks on them.
