[quote=@Ophidian] They probably abuse the hell out of the fact they're technically nobles of another nation, so they can't be dragged out and executed without risking war. That, and I'll be playing up the shadowy manipulator aspect of vampires. The fact that this time it's in the service of a genuinely good cause is an irony I like. [/quote] Feel free to make them full fledged nobles of New Anathagos- a great family like Gwent or Zaripov. Everyone from New Anathagos can trace their lineage to immigrants, so even if they're originally from elsewhere, there's no reason your vamps cant be fully integrated into the aristocratic ruling structure of the city, even if they will naturally face some suspicion and distrust from others.
