Wow. I think it's just an elaborate piss take, but someone has gone to a lot of effort here:

http://www.dark-phoenix-publishing.com

This games company's games include:
Vampire: Undeath, where you choose between different vampire houses including Eligiere (aristocratic vampires), Bucoli (Arcane Blood Magicians), the Cherche (adrenaline junkies, bikers, skaters, snowboarders and those who seek adventure.), the Asasiyun (Coming from Alamut, they train in the ancient ways of The Faith and martial arts), Daemoni (ancient vampires who rule most of Eastern Europe… their powerful Dark Gift of Viscerorr… transform their bodies into pliable, living blood or transform their form at will into any shape from simple spikes to demonic forms)

Departed: Afterlife, a game that starts immediately after your character dies.
Fae: Kingdoms; 'Fae are the creatures of imagination and fables'
Hunters: Sins of the Father, where you play a mortal hunter after the supernatural creatures who ruined your life.
Shapeshifters: The Silent Struggle; "Shapeshifters are caught between worlds. One is the world of man, technology and everything we as humans have come to love. The other is the world of the beasts, nature, mother Earth and your animal spirit."
Mage: Legacies; " Sometime after puberty a Mage experiences their first awakening. Charged with energy and unseen forces, the Mage is granted the ability to use magic"

They also have a set of LARP rules that involve Rock/Paper/Scissors for conflict resolution, and on many of their pages which have 'What [game name] is not' they even go so far as to say "[name] is not a storytelling game". They had a kickstarter... which got $50, from one person.

Ah, yes, the classic "Well, we're pretty sure the rights holder is too broke to sue us" variety of the Indy Game Publisher.

Blatant ripoff is blatant?
