I went with Camazotz. Thank you all for the education!! Lots of happy research. There is much much more plot that I've developed, but for this arc I'm trying to have this vampire ultimately sought out by the good guys party who hope to recruit it - to _ally_ with it - because they need him as a show of strength AGAINST a demon invasion of the planet (a battle in the ongoing Blood War between Devils & Devils)
It seems wise to just completely ignore/avoid Zura - the other "first" vampire story-wise, since she caused her condition herself and is an ascendant mortal. Their origins are diametric (trickery/deception vs. madness).
Calistria and Count Ranalc are both Chaotic Neutral, whereas I feel that spawning the uber vampire and unleashing their spawn is equally choatic and evil.
I do need the 'god' to be a bit more powerful than a quasi-diety to have been powerful enough to have unleashed the near-permanent blight of vampiricism upon an entire planet. That would also exclude the typical Demon Lord who resides on only one layer.
I really like that Camazotz is obscure - no one else cared to listen to her final thoughts. The pending blood sacrifice powering the curse is actually the sacrifice of the innocent fetus, which was just enough to draw his attention. Further, Camazotz justifies why a vampire would have a bat & wolf motif.
Lastly, Camazotz wins over Zura because of the trickery/deception over madness.
Thank you all!
- Joe
