"Vampire, The Masquerade" is actually one of my favorite RPGs (my character is a Tremere vampire called Lileth Urtx).
I am a writer and I researched a lot about the different kinds of vampire traditions and folklore ... eg Muroni (Romanian vampires), the Nelapsi (vampires Slovaks), the Sbenefici (vampire who feeds on other vampires), the Rakshasa (vampires drink blood in addition to eating human flesh), the Doppelsauger (German vampires are quite like wraiths, not bite, put your hand on the chest of their victims and suck the life energy) ... I love vampires
