I thought that was ghosts.

Nah, it's a vampire thing. I remember reading a story where a vampire can't chase the main character because he left the island. But they can cross a river via a bridge.

It's the classic vampire with all their strengths and weaknesses. Not the sparkly Twilight type.

Thats really not specific enough.

Vampires are massively different in each story. Plus in many versions it would be important to take note of who is making you one. If you look at something the Vampire Chronicles, being a weaker vampire would absolutely suck balls but being made by somebody like late-game Lestat, Marius or Armand or whoever would essentially make you a god.

If we're talking about actual classic vampires, not the Anne Rice/vtm type most posters are thinking about, sunlight, at best merely weakens them. Not destroys.

In fairness, only the strongest Anne Rice vampires can survive exposure to sunlight. The vast majority would just die.

If I get to pick the vampire verse then hell yeah. It'd sign up in a heart beat to be one of those manga/anime vampires that has no real downsides whatsoever like with highschool dxd's, my monster secret's,
Rosario vampire's, hell even call of the night's isn't too bad if you work around the true love thing.

Bonus in that if I am one of those shojo manga vampires I am probably going to get them bishie sparkles, be super handsome and have long flowing locks.

*oh fuckles, I actually read the opening post now. Deals off and I'm going home*.

I'd give it a try, I guess. Finding blood would be the hardest part imo, since even killing "bad guys" and drinking their blood sounds heinous. Maybe you just don't care when you're a vampire. But if we have hypno powers, that would make things considerably easier.

I wouldnt be able to work at my job anymore. I guess the solution is find a night job but will you be guaranteed to never have to do anything during the day?
Well, you're a vampire. You don't really need much of anything. Don't need air/water/food/heat. That eliminates most costs. You don't even need a house. Go live in an abandoned mine, or clocktower, or dilapidated castle or something.

I'd like to be a Skulduggery Pleasant vampire

During the day, you're essentially human, albeit with slightly higher strength/dexterity. During the night, you're a rabid murder beast, BUT there are potions to suppress that

A further downside is that you feel emotions much more strongly, but eh

No such thing. There is no mythology in vampire lore that states vampires die in sunlight, and the reflection thing is they don't reflect in silver, which mirrors were backed with until modern times. The sunlight shit was invented for the 1922 film Nosferatu because the director wanted to avoid being sued by the Stoker estate (they did anyways, and he lost). In the 1931 Dracula film by Universal, he's killed when a stake is driven thru his heart. It's not until Son of Dracula (1943) that Universal decided to make him burn up in flame.

True vampire mythology is in sunlight, a vampire loses access to all supernatural powers, and they're stuck in whatever form they took when the sun comes up. So if they're in wolf form, they're stuck in it until night. Mist? Stuck in it until night.

Since no modern mirrors aren't backed with silver, all vampire would cast reflections.
