Vampires would have to roll their VAMx5% (Vampire Roll) to do Vampiric things such as changing form. Vampires can last their VAM in days without feeding, but must succeed in a Vampire Roll or lose their VAM in Fatigue Points.
That makes ancient vampires very powerful as they would have a very high VAM score.

VAM (or whatever you call it) shouldn't be random. It should start at X depending on whatever it represents (the power of the sire? the evil of the mortal being embraced? every vampire being equal when first created?) then rise according to whatever govern's such things.
It could be more like an Allegiance score than an attribute, with break points (every 10, every 20?) the vampire gets 'stuff'.
That's how I'd handle it.
