I'm currently fighting against groups that contain at least one Fampyr. The really annoying thing about this is that their opening move is charming one of my party members. They're also really, really good at it and succeed almost always.
I tried to use my priest to defend against it, but I misread the spells and only found one that worked against being confused and dazed, but nothing against being charmed.
My second idea was to use "suppress affliction" to remove the charmed effect, but that doesn't work either. Probably because it is classified as friendly AoE, and my charmed party member isn't friendly at that particular time.
What are effective methods to prevent my party members from being charmed?

Same Problem here. The one thing you can do is casting arcane reflection right from the start. Sometimes you are fast enough and that charm gets reflected (but with no effect on the fampyr).
Edit: after some tests, you can cast it every time perfectly if you put Aloth a little bit behind your first hero who will trigger the fight, so the enemy fampyr have to walk a bit before casting the charm.
I'm dealing with the fampyr using the cipher's puppet charm and at the end the priest can use this level 1 spell, concealing and protecting him for 20 more seconds (he can't do anything then).
One funny solution may be to run away with Aloth, as the Fampyr is really keen on charming him. The both of them were running around the map for minutes in one case :D
Edit²: Priests will get a spell on level 11 with a high defense against charm and domination :)
