I'm more concerned of what details you have fleshed out before I try to create a character. I have a rough idea, but if she doesn't fit the setting then it's a dead end.
Apologies for the late response - place has been quiet all morning.
Now, would vampires be the main denizen of this nation? And the other undeads are sort of minorities and/or raised simply for work/war/fighting/use purposes? Obviously humans would play a very "low" part - I would like to see them either have the money to ensure their usefulness, or actually be literal cattle otherwise with no freedom and a very clear and grim purpose. But that's your call, of course. I would like to see the hierarchy be decided mainly by race and secondly by money - I think that would make for interesting encounters and line up. Plus, it's a clear placement for those rebellion groups to start forming.
Also, what kind of physical features for the land are we talking about? How large would the nation be? How many regions within this nation would be available to be owned/controlled by the counts and countesses?
BTW, this sounds like a nice medieval twist on Underworld's vampire aristocracy. I like it.

I might be interested. Have a character who would fit within this setting I believe.

Age: 49
Physical Description: Tall and not particularly bulky at 6'9 he looks older than he is with scars and injuries rampant. His hair is a blond-brown amalgam that with its near perfect care seems out of place on him, like an expensive wig nailed to his skull. His eyes are a soulless grey and he always has a sharpened chain digging into both thighs.
Clothes and Equipment: A side-sword of a rare metal known as "hagbane silver" is his weapon of choice, although he carries a clerically blessed splitting axe and repeater crossbow (with a goat's foot leaver for heavier single shots on top). He wears greaves, vambraces, elbow shoulder and knee plates with leather under all, and sometimes brings a large hooked buckler with himself. If needed HE carfies smokebombs, and ones of irritating effect, usually from modified garlic concentrates. He will almost always carry at least two smaller hand crossbows, their long and extremely heavy cranks more than compensating for their small size. Further changes to his gear depend on his current situation.

Interested. I've had an idea for an ambitious Necromancer trying to use his powers to vie with the Vampires.

Physical Description: 6 feet tall, broad shoulders, with a lean and muscular build. One with experience would tell that Silas is a mercenary, yet he has very few scars. Over all he is a handsome man.
His hair is dirty blond and has recently grown nearly to his shoulders. A coarse scruff lines his strong chin telling of recent time spent traveling.
Clothes and Equipment: Weapons: Hunting knife, spear

I'm interested in this. I'd like to create a vampire lord. I also have a character that would make a good peasant/rebel.

Quite the backstory. It all looks good to me. There are quite a few things in there that other players will be able to use. Where will this RP take place in the world? Will we create a new nation or play in the open lands?

How about a new continent to the west. That would give more accesability to people in Goraia, Isra, and Gauldin.

Hmmmm. Idk if I can get behind that idea. I would rather force my minions to live a harsh life so they have no chance of gaining any power to change. Make them think there is no other way. Why spend resources on keeping the cattle happy when you can maximize profit instead? Anyways that's my take on a vampire human relationship. Each vampire lord will be able to rule their people in their own way. That will give for more healthy conflict.

I second that. Each Vampire would have his own "ingenius" idea on how to use his minions and would enforce their individual laws.
I think it should be a separate continent quite far away so nobody would get the idea of "liberating" it or establishing "diplomatic ties" to fuck with the setting. While it shouldn't be unreachable, there should be deterrent from people messing with it all.
