Okay here are your answers for likely one of the best roleplaying social/political game out there, New Worlds Ateraan at

1 Vampire/Werewolf:
Not exactly, but the game does have dark elves (called Malor) and Shaman that are similar to Warlock/Witches.
And there are Lykos and Nykos both wolf/humanoid type of creatures. Check the website for full descriptions of these races as well as many more like Trolahks (think Klingon style).

2 Romance
Depends on your type of roleplay. There are over 100 players here with 50/50 men and women players. Romance can be a part of the roleplay as well as social/political/religious roleplay.

3 PK
Pk is based on roleplay. If you roleplay into it you can be pk'd as well as pk. But this is a serious roleplaying game and twinks don't last long. The players here pride themselves on good backgrounds, quality engagement, etc.

4 Fast paced games, not slow ones
This is entirely dependant on your style of gaming. The guilds and areas to start in are completely open to your style from slavery, to the free spirited rogue, to the serious cleric, notorious fighter, honor bound warrior, and even the affluent merchant. There are numerous guilds, each with their own agenda, style, and powers. What you do and how quick you are with things is up to you. You can spend a day with a ten member adventure group, hours in roleplay with a large group or just one other, or adventure on your own.

5 Free to play
Yep.

6 Historical
The game has a rich background built by the creators, based on a book, and also through player/staff development over the years (10+). The geographics, politics, and religions are well developed and historic.

7 Plenty of other players to RP with, not dead realms
Over 100 and two areas to start in. I STRONGLY recommend starting in the North in the Kingdom as it is very harsh in the Southland (slavery, conscripts, servants, heirarchy) and you can get killed or have a difficult time.

Other things to consider about New Worlds Ateraaan:

8. Shipping: This game has a robust shipping section with all types of ships, weapons, pirates, deep sea fishing, islands, whaling, and other things in the ocean to explore.

9. Unique Guilds: The guilds in Ateraan are unique and diverse from Magical ones to Merchants/Traders to warrior and clerical types.

10. Robust World: The world of Ateraan is large and has Forests, Caves, Fortresses, Castles, Deserts, Dunes, numerous Towns and Cities, Swamps and Mountains as well as Oceans.

11. Large scale adventure. Groups can and do go out from two to over a dozen. Sometimes invasions cause 50+ Adventurers to deal with large scale intelligent enemies that can storm a town or city.

12. Large Events: Auctions, Theatrical plays, Costume Balls, Winter, Fall, Summer, and Spring events put on by staff and/or players are always happening. These events lead to massive roleplay, interaction, and entertainment and can be both social and dangerous.

13. Houses and Ships: Players can own cottages, mansions, even castles and these locations are of quality as they are built and developed by the Merchant or Trader Guilds in the game. The ships are also built by those guilds and vary vastly.

14. The Staff and Guides. The staff and guides of Ateraan are supremely helpful and willing to ensure you have a good experience.

Try out Ateraan and I think you will agree with the other players that it is a unique and incredible place to live.

Good Luck!
