Actually, I've designed a Vampire as PC system based off something I saw
in a magazine (White Wolf I think). I've tweaked and adjusted it, and
even play tested it, and am pretty happy with the outcome. Vampire
abilities (and I've even added some of my own borrowed from another
system) are purchased via karma, like skills, at pre-scribed costs.
Check it out and see what you think. It's worked for us so far.
You can find it in the Shadowrun section of my page by foloowing the
