DEMONOID PHENOMENON: GROTFERATU

Fangs?  Wings?  Power, wealth, castles, and thralls?

Naw, you didn't get any of that in the bloodsuckin' lottery.  Sure, you don't age, and you can both throw and take a punch (or be stabbed, or gut-shot, or run over, or....), but even the slimmest sunbeam sends you scurryin'.  Critters go crazy around you.  You're always broke, scrounging what's in your victim's backpacks.  And you live in your blacked-out ride, or whatever charge-by-the-hour snakehole will take you.

You're a lowlife bottomfeeder, plain and simple.  Thank Lucifer you've got some like-minded pals that raise hell with you...and if those don't work out, you can always make more...literally.
