A typical Ars Magica setting encompasses several types of vampires. In fact, it may well be that most of these are actually different being who are only classified as a “vampire” just because of the similarities in their powers. These rules, however, are quite specific and focus on only one “flavor” of these mythical creatures, particularly those pertaining the more usual vampires found in Bram Stoker’s book or modern folklore. These vampires use many of the parameters commonly found in a typical game of “Vampire: the Masquerade”, or “Vampire: the Requiem” by White Wolf.
