Lowkey, Twilight isn't about vampires. Much like Astarion, really. At the end of the day, it's all about the angst-ridden bad boy going to town on the self-insert character. That's what the trend is. The vampire bit just happens to fit right in, and enchance the danger and angst aspects.

Having said that, Cazador seems really cool, or at least seems to be more akin to a folklore vampire. Big shame that we're stuck with his mail boy.
