Maybe every vampire has a unique relationship with Chaos or Unlife--which means a different creation story or relationship with Vivamort perhaps? This could provide a reason why each Gloranthan vampire is different.

The 2 vampires in the Rubble are The two vampires in the Rubble. There is not IMO a population of 1000 vampires wandering around Sartar. I don't know how many there are but it is a low number. There may be a groups that shares an origin (eg the Dancers of Darkness) but still, my estimate woudl be for almost no vampires (eg. 2 or 3) in Sartar, apart from the Dancers (not sure how many there are)
