Wouldn’t a church be fit for a vampire character’s stage?
Plus I like for a vampire to be living as an underworld mob boss. But I would wish it was a good guy.
How would a church stage be adequate for a vampire? Isn’t their weakness holy water and other similar things. Why would a vampire go anywhere near one?

Unless the vampire would be a dhampir. It would seek holy ground/solitude for the sins he/she committed from his/her vampirism.
I think Sabrewulf have the big Universal Studios monster trio covered in one character.
I think the vampire and Frankenstein’s monster characters while need a separate trope.
The same reason why a haunted church is creepy as hell. If a vampire/ demon is so badass and powerful that it just doesn’t care about those things that’s when you know your screwed lol.
However I would like to think that if in a vampire would be different than the legends portrayed. Like the weaknesses are just superstition. It would be funny to see a vampire eat a garlic bread toast and be like “what? Did you really think an immortal race of death dealing hunters be brought low by a vegetable?”
Although I’m not sure about light. That’s a big thing in vampires and I’m not sure it would be better to change the daylight stage to night time stages to keep that weakness, explain it off to some kind of magic ring type of random thing, say the vampire is that powerful to not be affected by the sun or to simply call it another superstition of the legends that was created when the people of old saw vampires who were nocturnal as bats and some owls and etc. and explained it as an aversion to light
I touched upon some of your points in my earlier post about vampires doing more than just feasting on us.
Bram Stoker made up the religious stuff for vampires, based on his own religious background. They weren’t present in vampire tales beforehand, so IG can make up what they wish for a vampire to be. In the novel, Dracula didn’t care about sunlight, that was an invention of cinema, so again, IG can do what they like.
I would be neat if IG combined vampire with other things, such as an elementalist, or anything really, in order to spice it up.
even better. I didn’t know that those things were bram inventions, although i knew his Dracula could walk in light I didn’t know that vampire being allergic to light came after Bram
So I’ve skimmed the entire topic and here’s what I have to say.
@M00NLightNinja plz stop and listen to what we say to you before returning a hate comment. Also be respectful and more specific when creating topics for better clarification.
Everyone else… I don’t know about a female vampire. It would probably be another Hisako: cute when she looks normal, terrifying when she goes berzerk. It would be interesting though. I would prefer the head vampire from Van Helsing; both completely human-like and monstrous. If a female were to do that, I’m ok with that.
Ooooh a nice mansion setting for the vampire!!!
Sort of like the Dante devil may cry first level with candles ornate carpet and deep hallway with statues and spirits moving around in background
A classical Castlevania Romanian type of mansion/castle. It has to be super elegant and avant garde. In the background there are several of his female harem vampires looking on.
I want a rooftop stage. Not like Aria stage but on top a humongous castle/mansion that looks more like bloodborne with gargoyle statues surrounding the stage. Round 2 could hqv the giant full moon turn red just like bloodborne.
On the topic of bloodborne I def. wouldn’t mind a reaper scythe for a weapon. Weather a transforming one like bloodborne or one of a different design. The vampire could fuse with the scythe in instinct to transform into his beast form

Definately would love an urban rooftop stage as well to fit a more modern vampire look! The retro outfit could be a more classic vampire look with a more Victorian/Gothic look, but I would prefer the main look would be more modern punk with some leather and spiky studs. <3
If it were like the DOA rooftop style stage maybe.
I prefer a castle inside though not much to show but sky on a rooftop
How about a rooftop on a gothic building, with some pillars and gargoyles?

Yes this is what I mean. With torches, gargoyles( real moving gargoyles!!! XD) spires etc. nothing really modern like orchid stage but something much darker and foreboding
I would prefer a male but i’ll take whatever they give me. I just want them to stay away from the whole pansy sissy vampire crap that’s been popular these days. I ESPECIALLY want them to stay away from the whole japanese / asian way of making characters look super androgynous with feminine faces and bare chests barf. Who says a vampire can’t be a burly man in a nice suit with a pimp cane that does not sparkle in daylight?
Oh and you forgot the best vampire in a fighting game! All hail MIDKNIGHT!
Like I said, I would prefer a more modern goth-punk take on a male vampire.
Here’s some pictures for inspiration:
