Properties[]
As an archetype, the vampire monarchs are nearly always the most powerful and top tier of their kind, are nearly always the leaders of other vampires and acting or are royalty within their covens or nests as they are called. For the majority of circumstances, they are the progenitors of their own vampiric races and seen in a divine sense due to this and are considered and viewed in a god-like status.
