Hi Brooklyn! Sorry for the long delay! We lost track of some stuff.
A vampire existing by the mechanisms you describe is possible! But we would be concerned about the plausibility of him getting away with this within Riftwatch. They're not in a position where they could voluntarily shelter an abomination without repercussions if anyone outside of Riftwatch found out, even if they wanted to, and the characters who we suspect would be quick to kick him out if they knew are pretty savvy and observant. So you'd need to RP him exercising a lot of subtlety and keeping knowledge of what he is confined only to characters who'd shield him (and do so competently) without requiring anyone else to be stupid not to realize what's up.
We know you're fully capable of that OOC and a very cooperative player! But we're not sure how much discretion and secrecy is IC for him vs. how much he would be reveling in what he is, and if he were found out it'd likely be a situation that would render him unplayable pretty quickly. One possibility for softening the response if he were found out would be if he were actively trying to end his possession, but again, we're just not sure what's IC for him or in line with how you'd like to RP him.
In summary: this is possible, and you're welcome to do it, but in practice it will require a lot of restraint and constraints, so we wanted to let you know that before you put in the work of an app and got surprised by it in the notes.
