I find it really interesting that you say vampires have more complications than humans. I think in a strangely ironic way their limitations allow them to have more freedom from the mundane complications of humanity - such as worries about sickness or or day-to-day injury that's so often govern our decision-making processes. I think the vampire of mythology allows you to explore of the elements of humanity that are less tedious, and more inclined with our desires for lust and passion. I really like your perspective on them as protagonists!
