SLASH'EM
Vampires are a playable race in SLASH'EM. They can levitate and do not need to breathe, but they cannot eat solid food and have to rely on blood as their only food source. While the enemy blood has a very small nutritional value, the vampires have the advantage of being able to sacrifice even those corpses they have fed upon. They can also drain other humans as well as dogs and cats, without penalties. Enemy vampires are also often generated with opera cloaks.
Encyclopedia entry
The Oxford English Dictionary is quite unequivocal: _vampire_ - "a preternatural being of a malignant nature (in the original and usual form of the belief, a reanimated corpse), supposed to seek nourishment, or do harm, by sucking the blood of sleeping persons. ..."
