[QUOTE="Sejs, post: 325782, member: 4910"] See, that's the thing. Given their dietary requirements, most vampires will be alone at some point or another. Any concentration of them in one place for long will draw -alot- of attention from all the attacks on people. An area can sustain one vampire, maybe two and have them go reasonably unnoticed. But with a vampire needing 1 point of blood per day just to survive, not counting any they expend on disciplines, stat boosts, or healing, if you get 4 or more vampires in a single area people will notice. And that's the pinnacle of bad for your average walker in the night. And they know this. Really, all it takes is a litle bit of cunning, and a good solid dose of patience. You may not get to the target today, but in a week, or a month.. you bet he'll slip up. Then you nab 'em. As for disciplines, they're not as badass as you may think. Most arn't used all the time, becuase of the blood-per-use requirement they have. More you use them, the faster you starve. And alot of the powers that could help them avoid an ambush (most Auspex, for example) just arn't worth keeping up. Hightened Vision? First time a car with highbeams comes by, you're blind. And so on. Again ~ bit of cunning, lot of patience. [/QUOTE]
