Last night I started the groundwork for a Urban Shadows campaign with my two teen daughters. I pitched it being like The Mortal Instruments and Beautiful Creatures books. Last night was character creation and setting creation. I realized that the debts statement were great for making NPCs.
My eldest made a hunter named Beatrice and her sister made a fey named Fiona.
I even bothered to make a site for it on Obsidian Portal: https://new-york-nights-2.obsidianportal.com

I think I’ve been conditioned to think of vampire society in the WoD way with princes, etc. I don’t know about anyone else. Perhaps it is really just semantic.
Still, in thinking about this, I also tried to think up alternate ways that a vampire society has been presented. One set of books that has done that is the Joe Pitt series by Charlie Huston. The books have a map of New York that shows how the vamps have their territories broken down. Some work like hippie communes, some like mafia, and some like monks.
It’s a pretty good series for another look at vampires and vampire culture.
