Those abilities are before augments and community support from worshippers, of course, but even so....
hmm.... I'd better keep an eye on those Swords players. At least one once expressed a desire to do just that, and it looks like it's more possible than I'd realised.

Good point, and I'd say the latter unless yo;re satisified with a purely local result.

Well, we know roughly what happens when your god dies. Magic from that god stops working. The interesting question here is whether the ability to "eat" other people's souls to replace your own is magic powered by Vivamort, or a chaos feature that's become part of the vampire. Obviously they can still physically drink blood, but if it no longer has the required result, then for a while you'd have all vampires effectively unable to feed - see previous comments about the slide into berserk skeletons. And every vampire in the world going like that at once. May you live in interesting times.
The various "curses" I think would stay, as they're the result of various elements saying "I don't like you". This would not be a good time to be a vampire.
