Then again though, Vampires can also be complex characters although I could do without the enslaving part but I could do killing and consuming mortals especially when they're in combat situations especially.

Of course I wouldn't mind the variety but I think the context to why they commit their "bad behaviors" can be within context though. Then again Vampires have to drink blood to sustain their immortal bodies and how they get it depends on the situation especially what we define what is "moral" is different for a Vampire and of course under VtM context, Ghouling is just a convenience for them although can be avoided though.

Although I would rather present Vampires as alternatives to Patriarchy especially if you read Nina Auerbach's "Our Vampires, Ourselves" that is: https://www.amazon.com/Our-Vampires-Ourselves-Nina-Auerbach/dp/0226032027 Which if you read her book that she argues that Vampires originally represented a threat to Patriarchy but during the 80s though, they became that very thing with "Lost Boys" and "Near Dark".
