Vampire Virus
For a game I'm running I need a vampire template that does away with the obvious supernatural powers (shape change and the like) but still keeps the flavor of an Alpha predator.
In the setting it is a retro virus created through magic and ancient technology (really one and the same) that rewrites the host's DNA. I can see unaging, improved healing and/or regeneration of lost limbs, enhanced senses, and the like.
I'd like to keep the template to under 200 pts, and avoid church related disads since they don't fit the setting. (Individuals may buy into them as psychological penalties).
One of the reasons for the blood drinking, I'm thinking, is mitochondrial dependency, on their own their cell's just can't generate enough power to fuel their enhancements.
