I like it.  I'd have to figure out what becoming a vampire actually
involves, but I definatly like it.  Maybe they can become able to affect
the world slightly by sucking off part of a living persons life essence,
but once the essence is used up teh changes fade out and are soon lost
from the timestream.  To a vampire, the world is in stable equilibrium -
they can push things out a bit, but they just move straight back to
where they were when you were done pushing.


Of copurse, if they could give reality a hard enough push, they might
shift thinks to a different state of stable equilibrium.  But reality
doesn't like being pushed around like that and isn't moving without a
fight.
