Especially as Greg's said he's not exactly a vampire. He possesses a new corpse each time the old one wears out. Unlike Pharoh, he has to use freshly killed corpses.
Neither alive or dead, that's how he managed to outwit all the curses and nasty stuff that took out all his EWF comapdres. I sort of think of him as being more like Vincent Price than Bela Lugosi.
He does create vampires as his servants and lovers, though. =)

Possibly! OR at least, he's one of the only ones who escaped. I think he's stuck with a quick decision he made 400 years ago.

VERY good analogy. I like it. But I think his 'sacrifice' was a
last

It may be a combination of a "natural" magical talent. But I think its a part of some Terrible Life Sucking Powers grimoire
