Some of my favorites are "Feast of Blood," "Necropolis Regent," "Bloodlord of Vaasgoth," and "Malakir Bloodwitch." Of those, I think the Regent and the Bloodlord fit your theme best. There's also the "Butcher of Malakir" and "Anowon, the Ruin Sage" to consider. Unfortunately most of these have high mana costs. I think the Bloodlord would be the best fit of the vampires I can think of. He'd be the top of your curve, and would make all of the creatures you cast from then on more relevant.
A friend of mine has an absolutely disgusting and fast vampire deck that uses many of the same cards that you are using here, and he has I think 2 Necropolis Regents in it despite the mana cost. He usually Rituals them out and smashes, which winds up being very painful. I think his w/l record in our playgroup with that deck so far is 11-1, even with all the multiplayer matches and the shenanigans that go with them. (The only one he lost was a 1v1 versus my Pump! deck).
He also uses "Falkenrath Aristocrat," which winds up getting stupid when he also has out a Captain, Regent, or Nocturnus.
Another interesting interaction to consider is what happens when you have a Captain and a Vampire Nighthawk out at the same time. First Strike Deathtouch? Please!
