While the dark appeal of vampire fiction has technically drawn in gothic horror fans for centuries, Vampire: The Masquerade has successfully translated the concept into the tabletop RPGs format. With more bloodsucking creatures of the night finding prominent roles in media during recent years, the only other franchise of a similar status currently is the ever-growing Castlevania. Both series are giants in their respective mediums despite their vast differences, but their overlapping themes and lore would make a crossover with Vampire: The Masquerade only natural.
