To being a vampire, there are ups aswell as downs. Amon the ups comes the ability of certain skills and attributes being raised - the more "vampirical" you are, the higher they're boosted. Another use comes with a number of Powers (one Lesser and three Greater). When you're a "grade 1" vampire (recently fed) you can use a Lesser Power that gives you Detect Life 100 ft and Night-eye for 30 seconds. As a grade two vampire, along with certain stats/attributes being boosted by 10pts, you gain a Greater Power (can only be used once every 24 hours) that gives a Charm effect on the person you cast it on. As a grade 3 vampire, along with earlier advantages, the same stats are boosted even further, and you gain yet another Greater Power, which can demoralize weaker enemies and casts a silence spell
