Vampires

So, /tg/, vampires. Specifically, how to make them cool again. None of this 'noble immortals' faggotry. Proper vampires.

First, how's this: imagine what the sheer mental trauma of dying violently, and then coming (aginisingly) back from that death only to find yourself buried six feet below ground in a solid coffin, and being filled the the overwhelming primal urge to kill and drink the blood of every living being you see, hear, smell or sense would do to the human mind. And then you slowly realise that you can never, ever die. Never get any release.

You'd be seriously fucked up from that. No-one would be fine.

And then you've got a pschotic vampire running around. With all the powers of a vampire. Which I imagine would be more physically oriented than psychically. The human body is capable of some pretty amazing feats, but these are normally on 'safety' - you can't do it untrained because it will result in serious damage to your body. Vampirism grants regeneration to the extent that this damage is healed pretty much instataneously, and on some level, the body recognises this. So things like lifting cars, sprinting the hundred metres in less than 10s, jumping stupidly high, etc, are all possible.

And now there's a mental guy running around with top-end abilities - not superhuman, but at the very highest end of the human spectrum. And he's basically unkillable and immortal.

So, /tg/, any suggestions?
