After Sunset: Vampires is a 20-page color PDF. It is fully bookmarked, but there is no table of contents. I think the minimalist cover image of a moonlit city is striking for a PDF from a small publisher and the sparse interior art is decent as well. Layout is quite acceptable, but it does have some pretty big, ink-sucking borders at the top and bottom of each page.

Vampires is a focused product. It contains rules for running vampires as a PC race in a D20 Modern campaign. You get the expected vampire species traits and a long list of optional weaknesses to ?personalize? your vampire PCs. For instance, the default species has an aversion to garlic, but you could easily substitute a need to slumber from sunrise to sunset, a requirement that they sleep in their own soil, etc. if one of those weaknesses better fits your campaign. To go with the vampire species, you get a new vampire hero base class and a selection of vampire occupations. In addition to the above, you also get new feats, equipment, information on becoming and spotting vampires. The PDF is rounded out with a selection of optional rules. I especially liked the suggestions for ?off camera hunting?. Someone did some actual thinking about a topic that is sure to come up quickly in a campaign filled with vampire PCs.

As I said earlier, After Sunset: Vampires is a focused product. And in this case, that is a good thing. All of the information presented is useful for running Vampires as a PC race. There is no fluff. The writing is good. The presentation is good. If you want PC vampires in your D20 Modern campaign, this is the place to look. I applaud Clockwork Golem Workshop for delivering a product that actually stands out from the crowd. I wouldn?t call it terribly innovative, but it delivers what it promises in a smooth package. And in the sea of mediocre d20 PDFs that I wade through on a regular basis, that?s really all that I could ask.<br><br> <b>LIKED</b>: It is focused and well-written.
