    People here talk about going after certain CEOs and billionaires but I feel that a) vampires are predatory, never-satisfied creatures and b) love to dominate people around them, so I feel like those billionaire CEOs are more likely to be kin rather than prey

    Vampires are very long lived, don't often change, and have a vested interest in stability over hundreds of years. They'd be worse than boomers.

    How's he surviving all that direct sunlight?
    It's dark out, so that's not The Sun, it's just a star. Vampires got no problem with star light.

    Now, my question:
    How are those two space people surviving next to an open window into space without helmets? Do they not need to breathe? Are they actually the space vampires warring with one of their more traditional, earth bound, kindred?

    I'd miss a few things about normal life, but being immortal and hard to kill would be fun

    Literally eat the rich

    Probably the same person who put them on a space ship and sent them into space vampire territory.
    Dangerously irresponsible of those parents.

    Vampires live a long time, so they'd want the planet sustained, and their food source to remain viable, so at least they wouldn't be fucking over the planet by fracking Yellowstone or raising greenhouse gases.

    Hmm, this is true. I'd definitely vote vampire if this was their party platform

    You say becoming a vampire makes you immortal, but is life without garlic really living?

    No. No it is not.

    Vampires die to so many things

    They die if they fall into running water, they die if they go out in the sun, they die if their housekeeper accidentally cleans out the dirt in their coffin

    They're also super-duper-combustible

    If the sun is a star then isn't sunlight also starlight?

    Why can vampires handle starlight but not sun-starlight?

    It's a little known secret but vampires are actually weak to direct UV rays, not really sunlight in general. A good tanning bed can be disguised as a coffin and achieve the same effect

    Humans die if they go out in the sun or fall in to water! No one's impressed that you do it slower. Then there's stuff like heart disease, cancer, pneumonia, Alzheimer's, the list goes on and on.

    Oh, and the oxygen. Always with the oxygen. You breathe it in, you breathe it out, then you just breathe it right back in again when you could have just kept it there in the first place!

    So but what if humanity continues to evolve?

    Then in like 200 million years, humanity will look completely different and your immortal, changeless vampire-ass will look like a neanderthal.

    I'm sure there's plenty of vampires. That they don't want to be around most humans is probably understandable given, well, everything.

    In the WoD mirrors book it gave a neat idea for a story As it was a post apoc setting and the vampire that lead the camp of survivors had choices of defending their camp from other humans,monsters or vampires. Taking in more, Do you want to feed on your camp? And many others I thought it would be a fun game to play but alas I never found anyone willing to play VtR just people shitting on it for one reason or another
