Well, I wouldn't really be giving anything to the others to compensate. Let me state it more simply.
There is a cap on the number of vampires, which is half the number of wereX rounded up. The vampires can only be more than the cap number should the wereX get lynched but not the vampires.
The vampires don't get a nightly kill untill all the wereX are gone.
A vampire trying to convert a wereX gets himself revealed to the wereX
A vampire trying to convert a gifted reveals himself to the gifted and in turn the vampire knows he has chosen a gifted (but not what gifted)
A wereX trying to devour a vampire does it as if it was a villager.
Vampires don't get nightly kills until all the wereX's are gone.
The only way it'd work is with a large village though. The vampires are unlike the werebears in that they don't get a nightly kill every night, and the only way they can rid themselves of the wereX's is by the "conventional" methods.

How about were-wyrms? They're canon.  |
Ok.... were-wyrms in a dwarven cave?
