It is very tough to diplomize a vampire, exspecially if he has got a high
level. So my priest has got only a small chance with an influence of
56 on a vampirlord (I think, that is the third level of vampir). Then it
do not depend on his religion, it makes no different wether he is of your
relgion or without any religion, if you got an influence around 25, you will
got a chance in seven hells. So try, if you good enough for it.
