i tend to play vampire as a game of manipulation, rather than muscle or magic. i can do more with a few jedi mind tricks than most with a plate of dots on their sheet. (of course, with some dots, i can really go to town :p)
in my first big vampire larp (over 1998-2001) we had sub-games for different styles of players. i managed to straddle the brujah-gangrel battle game while also playing the ventrue-toreador political game. but then my character was technically a caitiff, albeit one accepted by the ventrue clan as a ventrue offspring. [auspex, fortitude, potence as in-clan disciplines, with ventrue feeding restriction plus loyalty to the ventrue clan as bloodline weaknesses - his childer all gained the same traits]
i shall have to look for a subtitled copy of "we are the night".
