Vampire (cWOD)

Vampires are one of the three main supernatural races in the Old World of Darkness and the principle characters of Vampire: The Masquerade.

Mortal Perpsective
In the modern nights the majority of mortals have been convinced by The Masquerade that vampires are myths, and thus possess only the knowledge found in the average novel or movie. There are a handful of cults and organizations that are aware of the existence of vampires, such as the Society of Leopold, though their information is often skewed.

Werewolf Perspective
Most Garou regard vampires as servants of the Wyrm and attack them on sight. Thus, discussion between the two races is incredibly rare and neither side really understands the other, aside from recognition of the mutual antagonism. As most vampires prefer civilization over the wild (largely because werewolves do not spend as much time in cities), encounters between the two are infrequent.

Mage Perspective
Very few of the Awakened realize that vampires are real, though their interaction with both the wondrous and monstrous makes them fairly open-minded to their existence. Regardless, most mages have no more knowledge concerning vampires than the average mortal gets from modern fiction. Those that have encounter vampires, however, often are intrigued by their apparent abilities to avoid paradox and the levels of quintessence contained in their blood.
