I embrace our vampire overlords.  Actually I think with some world gen experimentation you could probably end up with a fort with vampires, werewolves and necromancers and can stage some ridiculous epics.

Three dwarf noble houses: one for each cavern: one ruled by vampires, one a werewolf clan, and one worshippers of a necromancer who raises the dead.

Bonus points for carefully managing a loyalty cascade and complex bridge system until the houses actually war with each other in a controlled way.

...Ah man when is the new update?

More sacrifices to Armok are clearly needed...

Ha, isn't it likely the vampire would come as a diagnostician migrant, trying to blend into the healthcare system:

"You, I saw you taking blood from Urist, you're a bloody VAMPIRE! GUARDS! GUARDS!"
"Look, according to Urist's severe condition an application of cupping to this particular area is medically totally sound. You know, to separate the bad humours that circulate in Urist's body."
"Er, I see. Well then, sorry, I'll be off then seeing things done."
"Good man, you do that."

Spoiler: Edit, just realised how large the quote was lawl (click to show/hide)

Someday, you will have to choose. You will have to choose who's side you're on, what you're going to live for, what you're going to die for. You'll have to choose, Vampires, Dwarves or Lycan's.

Also, Vampire paratroop squadron ftw! (Retractable drawbridge overlooking your entrance....)

But I just want them all to live in peace and harmony under my benevolent yet assertive rule.

And how will you do that with constant blood donations required? You want peace? The vampires want blood. The dwarves are out to get their blood. And magma is now flooding your fortress.

It's them or us £:<

I will find a way! For I am King DZA,(self proclaimed)ruler of everything, and goddamn it I will have a peaceful realm of of brotherly kindness and cooperation! All across this utopia, my control will be absolute!! MY WILL SHALL GO UNCHALLENGED AS A CRAFT REALITY ITSELF INTO A MASTERPIECE SO BRILLIANT, EVEN THE GODS WILL BE PUT TO SHAME!! AND ALL WHO DARE OPPOSE ME IN THIS ENDEAVOR SHALL LOATHE THE DAY THEY CAME INTO EXISTENCE!! THEY WILL CLAW DESPERATELY AT THE GROUND, IN AN ATTEMPT TO REACH THE DEEPEST PITS OF HELL IN THE HOPES THAT I CANNOT FIND THEM, BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT ARMOK, THE BLOOD GOD HIMSELF WOULD CRINGE AT THE MERE THOUGHT OF THE SUFFERING I WILL BRING UPON THEM!

I WILL ACHIEVE ULTIMATE POWER. AND WITH IT, I WILL CREATE THE PERFECT WORLD!!!

So yeah, vampires...

I give it two days before the system is broken, MaaAAANNNN

[ASCIt]

I vote Urist McNoshadow for Mayor, personally.

[Frelus]

I vote for Urist McNoreflection.
He knows sooo much about vampires and how to detect them, he has detected !5! today!
He will guard us from all those vampires!

I for one bow down to our new bloodsucking overlords.

Can't beat them, join them.

I on the other hand, plan to beat them.
*Big brother style fortress coming up... I see EVERYTHING YOU'RE DOING DWARVES HA HA HA HA HA*

Not mandatory comma! I can choose between a comma, semi colon or being awesome.
AND GUESS WHAT! I CHOSE NONE OF THEM

Now back to topic.... Vampires. Yeah.

[Berserkenstein]

The last thing I got to was getting the historical dwarven vampires infected from world gen to come as migrants on occasion. Next up will be getting them to feed. This will leave one of your own dwarves zombies routinely doing troubling things to the rest of your population, without you knowing immediately who is responsible. In order to make this a fun thing rather than an annoying thing, we're going to revamp the justice system a bit so that you can have crimes that have been committed (in the Justice screen, say) where the perpetrator is not known. In this case, the plan is to then have a witness to a bloodfeeding be able to report that to a guard/sheriff/etc., and then that'll be available for you when you decide on somebody to accuse/arrest/punish. You'll be able to accuse the wrong dwarf, and we might have the vampire or grudge-holding dwarves level false accusations that'll muddy the witness accounts a bit. It should be entertaining once it is tweaked and tested, but first I need to get the guts of it in.

This is what I want! >:3

[Loud Whispers]

For the last time Francis, they're not Vampires they're zombies!

[Tiruin]

Somehow I get the feeling that someone out there would not care at all about dwarf justice. The vampires can feed as long as there is magma.

Oh look, my king is a vampire. Unfortunate accident will occur.

I wonder if vampires are immune to magma just like clowns?

"Burn the heretic lest it consume us all!"

~~~

Other idea, if people start walling off their fort with only the starting seven, what will happen to the migrant vamps? Guarding your perimeter while feeding on the unworthy 

[IcarusOne]

Simple. My hammerer/captain of the guard is now called Urist Belmont, legendary lasher.

[Yoink]

I just had a thought... As much as a vampire-run fort would be nigh-on indestructible, surely the Mountainhomes would strenuously object to such a thing, and quite likely attempt to attack and destroy it, freeing the slaves and blood-cattle from their bloodsucking overlords?
Could be EPIC.
