Should we be able to make vampires that are actually scary?
Should there be more mechanics to make vampires scary? Not necessarily by default, but as an option? Like have a scary aura or something. My vampires always seem to be treated as any other Sim. In som...

Perhaps a Vampire-only trait would work? Vampires with said trait will be feared or have interaction options to scare other Sims. (Again, I don't use Vampires in my game, so my suggestions may be no good).
@GirlFromIpanema Since there are no traits that are occult specific (save for the respective occult trait), I presume you mean a power or weakness. We have a power for casting emotions to all sims nearby (Influence emotion) which they could update, but otherwise there isn't a precedent for what you're suggesting. Not saying they couldn't, but given they'd then have to make multiple occult-specific traits, it's a less likely solution. Not to mention the power does not take up a trait slot, and just requires a recolour and annexation of an existing feature (with the bonus of being optional).
Zero made a mod for allowing the Influence Emotion power to cast "Burst of Fear", for those who can/want to use mods for the time being.
