The ways that Kindred break from the typical depictions of vampires are really interesting. It's extremely cool to see them have to worry about rent and shift their work hours to be at night so they don't die, and have to find a way to cut themselves off from those they used to know. It's an aspect of vampirism that isnt shown very often, but I find it very fascinating. They're also much more fallible than other depiction, those this is probably more a gameplay thing.
