The mod itself is in the attachments to this post, and should be on the front page and Steam shortly.
some bug that I met while playing vampire with Vlad:
impossible to have a non-vampire courter he is instantly kill by a vampire of the court
the vampires can feed on other vampires if the hunger is max
I have a courtier who has all the blood court title
the council is not established with the vampire government
the revolts are too regular when the county is not luciferian

I have a courtier who has all the blood court title

I'll double check and tweak those, with one exception:
Vampires that feed automatically from having their hunger get too high may feed on characters that can't normally be fed on. However, when this happens, they will get sick.
I may make some changes to this to make sure accidentally feeding on a vampire or similar creature won't give large stat boosts that would offset the penalty.
EDIT:
It looks like the revolts had a flat 25% chance to fire as long as you held a single bad province. I'm making a few changes to fix that:
1. I'm lowering the base chance (currently 10%)
2. The chance will scale up and down with control, hunger, and suspicion
3. Instead of selecting a wrong culture/religion province, it will select any province, then only fire if it's the wrong culture/religion, causing the chance to scale down the more of your provinces have the correct culture or religion.
It will also now only care about the direct holder, so you can avoid issues by handing the province to a non-vampire/werewolf (or at least an unknown one).
I also put in tweaks for the rate AI vampires feed to see if that helps with courtiers. I'll need a few days to test everything while I also check on the government/title issues

I found that dragons have the same problem as the previous Mythos mod: they start in an impossible position. You can play for a couple of years at most before some Norse king with many, many times your troops comes along and conquers you.
Quick question, is it possible to become immortal through being a mage?
Also, how bad is giant devolution. Give 3 generations will they still be giants or is it percent based?

Which dragon start are you using? I've reformed the faith as CM and TOG Faroyar and CM Kola. Faroyar starts off with ships now, so you should be able to expand to the British Isles as soon as you get a claim.
Alchemists with the magic focus have a change to get an event to try and create the Philosopher's Stone. It's difficult, but if you succeed, you'll be immortal as long as you own it.
Giants who breed with other giants will always produce giants*.
Giants + half-giants have 50% giant children, 50% half-giant children.
Giants + humans have all half-giant children.
Half-giants + humans have 50% half-giants and 50% humans.
*Barring a rare occurrence when breeding with gods. People familiar with Norse Mythology might recognize what's going on there.
I don't want to completely restrict it - having a vampire in your court should be a bit dangerous. I am, however, re-tuning it, since having a lot of vampires in your court might be a bit too dangerous.
So far I've been using the TOG Faroyar start. After multiple attempts, the only time I've managed to survive past two years was to immediately, before unpausing at the start of the game, send a gift and my chancellor to improve relations to the king of Ostlandet, as he's the ruler most interested in conquering you right away. That, and luck, got me past the two year mark.
I'll take a look at that. What CB is he using? My test as TOG Faroyar was before Jade Dragon, so the new CBs might be giving him an option he didn't have before or made him more aggressive.
If it's just a claim, I could easily remove his claim. If it's De Jure, that might need a more creative approach.

I've noticed Faroyar get eaten by the Yngling king too, wouldn't have realized it if the dragons from there didn't migrate to my land after losing their territory (I was playing as the Dragon in Malta).
So quick question, how does dragon/human breeding work? Is it always a dragonborn result? I tried to breed with a goddess and so far have gotten two dragonborn demigod children. Similar question is for the god and demi god trait, since I start as a demigod and I mated with a goddess, will I always only get demigod children?
I'm trying to see if I can breed up in power, if not oh well, just wondering how it works so I can plan ahead.

Dragon breeding is similar to giant breeding, though the numbers are a bit different and depend slightly on which species the mother is.
Divine breeding on the other hand can only go down, not up. Two gods will have god children, but mixing in a mortal will produce a demigod, and eventually just blood of the gods.
Blood of the gods will tend to last a few generations, but eventually the benefit will breed out unless you get new divine blood in the dynasty

The war title was "conquest," as I recall.
After some additional experimentation, I found the answer: just ignore the obvious 867 Mythos bookmark. Instead, play Faroyar from the 769 start date. This is a vastly superior start, for two reasons:
1. The Norse won't just step on you immediately.
2. The 769 ruler can summon ethereal armies. It's not obvious at first, but that turns out to be vitally important. Once you've not been killed by the Norse, you need the means to press a claim, and the ethereal army is the only way to make it work in a reasonable time frame. Your levy is too small to beat anybody, and you can't either strengthen it through buildings or hire mercenaries because you won't have enough ships to move them without getting higher shipbuilding tech (indeed, it's possible to trap yourself on your island by building a militia training ground). With the 769 start, you can move your pathetic levy to your target and then summon an ethereal army, giving you enough troops to beat a single independent county with no allies.
I'm having problems with the arcane master trait. Whenever I load the game, it disappears. I got my trait using the console, but I have seen it happening with the AI too, no console involved.
Btw, this is exactly the mod I was expecting, great work!

The description text for dragon government says they can choose from several succession laws, but it appears they're stuck with gavelkind. Granted, they can switch to agnatic-cognatic and absolute cognatic gavelkind, but that's hardly a good thing. Is there some requirement that I'm missing to get any other succession laws available?
Addendum: I also found a bug with the "Strengthen the Draconic Religion" ambition. Converting a county to the draconic religion using magic doesn't count as one of the tasks, although converting a county is supposed to be one of the possible tasks.

The several succession laws is the same as Fuedal since Draconic Feudal doesn't restrict succession laws. However, all of the dragon starts are unreformed pagans, which are restricted to gavelkind. Once you reform, you can use the same succession laws as reformed pagans.
I'll try to look in to Arcane Master. Is this a specific start, or using the character customizer?
