I'm bad at this

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

Personality-wise: Vampires and demons are pretty different, IMO. Demons are more chaotic and spontaneous whereas vampires are more refined and manipulative. Think the charming killer archetype vs. the loose cannon. Vampires also stereotypically lean towards vanity and an appreciation for beauty rather than just outright destruction. Like the bestiary says, vampires also tend to think of themselves as superior and specifically as superior to humans. You could also go with some of the drawbacks, like being unable to cross running water, needing to be invited into houses, or having to count things.

Magic-wise: They don't seem to have much in common with demons and actually seem somewhat stronger magic-wise? Their hypnosis ability is from what I can see the strongest of all monster-hypnosis type of things. Demons and shades have possession, but vampires can essentially create human servants (and often do in fiction). Turning into fog/mist lets them get into enclosed spaces, and they've got superhuman speed to boot.

Design-wise:
-Bat ears can come in basically any shape and size.
-For wings you could go with full-on wing hands, full wings attached to their wrist, webbing with spines in it, pinky and ring fingers transformed into wing-fingers with the rest being normal, etc.
-For feet you can pretty much give them hand-feet.
-Some bats have long tongues (and one type of bat has a tongue that's as long as its body). Do what you will with that...
-Fur-wise, they can have manes, neck ruffs, and one bat has fur that looks like a mohawk. Full body fur is an option too, especially if they have wings they can't use with a shirt on.
-The mods okayed bat tails.
-Split bottom lips.
-Most people don't opt for facial changes and especially not uglier ones, but bat noses come in a lot of varieties if you want that.
-Longer forearms if they have wings, so they can do 'wing walking'.

The mohawk one is Chapin's bat, if anyone besides me wondered!
