Vampire without the masquerade...
In reply to Piestar (msg # 4):
If you want to feel the most like a vampire, try Thousand Year Old Vampire. By way of caveat, this is a journaling game meant to be played solo. Very atmospheric, just not roleplaying per se. Undying would be my next choice, but you would hate it. Think of it as the bastard love-child of VTM and Apocalypse World. All the social aspects of VTM but with sharper edges and harder choices. Very dark, very intense. Monsterhearts is PBTA like Undying. It has a vampire playbook but is not specifically about vampires. An excellent game regardless, one I recommend. I have played neither Angel nor The Dawnline, but watched the Angel and Vampire Hunter D series which inspired them. Both are about vampires who combat otherworldly forces in defense of humankind, even as they struggle with their cursed existences. Ghastly Affair and Victorian Gothic are both games of period horror not built around playing vampires. Easily done in either, mind you, and most closely inspired by the Nineteenth Century stories by Polidori, Le Fanu, and Stoker.
