Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup:

Undead can't worship good gods, they get poison immunity, torment immunity, cold resistance.
> Mummy
No need to eat, necromancy spell power bonus. On the other hand can't drink potions, fire vulnerability, slow XP growth.
> Ghoul
You eat all the time to heal, standard undead resistances, strong, claw hands. On the other hand, they are pretty stupid.
> Vampires
You drink blood to switch between undead and living mode. Living regenerates fast, undead mode is stealthier, has undead resistances but regeneration gets worse and worse

So? It's not hard to think of a game in which you're superhuman.

What abilities do Vampire have?
They don't need to eat or drink. Neither do PCs.
They don't need rest and have infinite stamina. Neither do PCs.
They regenerate really fast. So do most PCs.
Superior - but not extreme - strength/speed/endurance. So most PCs to some point.

Most PCs have vampire powers without their drawbacks.

>>322780289
yeah im talking anne rice canon you nigger

theyre immortal beings

a game exploring those themes would be interesting, but the gameplay would either be shit or non canon.

>>
>>322781539
To be fair, their gameplay was non-canon in several aspects.

The PnP VtM revolves a lot more around conversation and survival than around killing monsters DnD style. Many powers don't do crap in combat, but let you live a certain lifestyle; like talking to animals, being everyone's best friend or implanting false memories.

They don't age. They're not indestructible (until Anne Rice went full retard and gave them God powers and made everyone gay).

I know it generally requires narrative or character driven games over game play if you want the proper mood and want to avoid the pitfalls of an action game where you play a god, but there are ways of doing it.

>>322785019
There are always ways of doing it. Spiderman is in no shortage of games, and the guy could easily deal with your average Vampire. Not to mention they could simply "nerf" the lore and make them weaker to be more easy to play as.

IMO, the reason for not having vampire protagonist has nothing to do with how OP they might or might not be.

Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid? heh I remember when I was just like you. Braindead. Lemme give you a tip so you can make it in this cyber sanctuary: never make jokes like that. You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on 4chan by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is 4chan. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here.

stop it. necron have no processors or transistors in them. they are steel bodies animated with the souls of the dead. it's literally what a necromancer does to dead bodies.

alos, no, undead don't need no flesh and rotting bone. revenants are undead. skeletons are undead. ghosts, wraiths are undead. the only rule for undead is that they die, then their souls raise again, either with or without a body, and not necessarily theirs.

undead means something, like a soul, reanimates a once living being as its new shell for example.
