Recrimination

Can the Recrimination (Vampire - Pants Macabe) but used from hand as a one-use, or as a power, does it have to be on the table first?

It is a Power, so you can't use it like a one-shot card. Thus, you'd need to have it on the table and be counting its Rank in order to use it. You could play it during the combat after you've gained the help, though, provided you have a high enough Level to keep the Power.

It's not a one-shot Item, so referring to it as a one-shot is a bit uncharacteristic of how Power cards work. However, since this Power must be used after you are in combat and have a helper (i.e., someone has actually joined a combat you initiated on your turn), you can play Recrimination while in combat, just like any other Power can be played at any time during your turn. Of course, this assumes you have enough Levels to support it (you can discard any Powers you are using in order to "make room" for Recrimination, if you must).

I would not allow playing it after all the rolls have been made and you've determined that everyone has Run Away successfully. It should be on the table before that has happened.

The version of this card I've seen doesn't mention needing to be a Vampire to use it. Are there multiple versions of this card?

No, me mentally mashing in the card next to it on my PDF printout of the database. And now, I have no idea what you are talking about. . .
