So when was your first vampire? or vampires in general
did he cause any fun, or save you from it?

I had mine today, well I think I did. this soldier has 731 goblin kills. He came to my fortress in one of the first migrant waves.

Mine came during a necro siege, he was the only one who didn't die in the migrant wave, he became a war hero, and he had the honor of becoming obsidian casted

I tried to use my first vampire to turn my entire fortress into vampires, but the fort eventually was destroyed because of a siege.

I tried to juice my first vampire like a lemon, and use the gore to make a squad of immortal super soldiers.  Fort collapsed to invaders before I could finish the project.

[JimDale]

I left him alone, because he seemed to only kill kids.

[C27]

I was boring and forced mine to wall himself into an empty 1x1 room, after he drained a useless immigrant. These days I put them to better use by putting them on fortified towers to serve as watchmen/snipers.

i didn't even realise vampires were in the game.

i was trying to work out how someone was drained of blood and had to go looking around the wiki.
I wondered how he managed it cos in my first forts everyone slept in one big room.

pretty sure my vampire was fairly useless.

My first was a success as vampire.

He exposed himself by the sudden message that 'The corpse of Urist McLegendaryStonecrafter' has been found, drained of blood'.
The following weeks I observed my sleeping quaters closely, and spotted him on the third draining. He was sentenced to jail and hammer strikes, - which he survived.
So by dwarven law he walked out as a free dwarf and promptly drained a new victim, - but didn't survive the next series of hammer strike.

I was wary and recongnized the first vampire before he actually managed to lay his fangs on my dwarves.
I sent him and the second vamp who arrived in the next wave with picks to wall off the first cavern layer at the edges, but a cave croc got them.

My first (and so far only) vampire was found after she drained somebody. I started looking around and found her out by her absurdly long thoughts page. I followed her around for a while and there she went, feeding on another one while I observed it. After that I made a room with silver walls and a silver chain and chained her to it. I'm still waiting for something nice to happen to put her to use.

[djsmiley2k]

My first vampire..... got accused of every single crime in my justice screen.

Something like 800 days in prison and 400+ hammer strikes.

He remained locked up, outside during a zombie siege which near enough brought the end to my fort, so I released him remotely and then he died to something rather quickly. I'm still unsure why he was ignored when he was locked up though.

Undead ignore vampires as they're fellow undead.

[RickiusMaximus]

I locked mine in with a cave dragon to see if he would drain it

he didn't

[Stopkilling0]

I promptly throw every vampire I encounter into the repeating spike pit.
That at the bottom is surrounded by windows. So the military dwarfs get used to seeing things die.

[Yee]

My first vampire killed at least one dwarf, but I accused him of two other crimes as well and chained him in a 3x3 room near the mausoleum. Unfortunately, after engraving the walls of his 'eternal prison', I forgot to lock up the door, so he was presumably hammered to death by the hammerer. Oh all these possibilities...
