Vampire Lore?

[ElectricPaladin]

I'm finding myself wandering back towards Vampires as my second army. I don't really know why - maybe it's because they have such a different aesthetic from my lizards? Maybe it's because using the Dip on my lizards has reminded me of how easy it can be to paint a horde of, say, ghouls?

Part of it is because I get the impression that the Vampires are compelling anti-heroes. As in, they are definitely bad people, but they aren't Chaos bad. In their drive for wealth, power, and security, they sometimes find themselves fighting on the same side as the world's white hats, but they have that black hat flare.

Am I correct? Can anyone support or shoot down this impression? Add any more cool stuff about vampires? I'm curious!
