Can summon perfect meals.
Doesnt need a wandt or have to pratice.
Live longer then avarge sims.
Can banish anoying sims.

I am both dark and devious, but I also love nature so in this order

Vampyrs
Fairies
Witches

Faeries they are cute, but they also are good at gardening. You can make those almost dead plants produce useful fruits. :)

Witches all the way. Can pull most of the tricks a genie can...eventually...and several they can't. And magically upgrade kicks the crap out of manual upgrading, since it requires the same amount of time to cast, no matter what upgrade you're doing (and is still less then a difficulty 1 manual upgrade) while manual upgrades depend on the difficulty of the upgrade. Magic hands is essential though, as most of the greater powers have a high failure rate otherwise, even with the best wand. (Can resurrect the dead at their strongest levels, first as zombies, which they can then cure with sunlight ritual).

Genies are ok....permament faster skill gain (not quite as fast as a vampire at night though), randomly gains immunity to fire, pyromaniac, both, or neither. Slightly longer lived (but not as long as vampires). Unlimited magical power, but more limited scope in their abilities. And their created food cannot be used to complete quests nor can they create Ambrosia. Their mind control power is neat though, but abusable, since every sim carries a laptop and car (among other things) that can be sold for ton of money very quickly. And if you're feeling like a $%#^ can break up their relations.

Faeries are ok (if you get the mod that hides their wings in human form), but unless you're gardener, they don't really add a whole lot. (One neat trick however is to drop a fairy house in a community lot with valuable harvestable plants and keep spamming bloom over and over until they reach perfect status for easy, nigh unlimited access to perfect produce), which they retain permamently and never expire (though will go dormant, season depending). Their speed repair is ok...but really not that big of a deal unless you're trying to avoid building handiness skill for some reason. The auras are ok as well, but fairly limited in scope.

Werewolves I honestly can't find any use for. They're a human who acts like a pet when transformed, that's about it. Sure at higher levels they get the benefits of the gatherer trait automatically (or double it's effectiveness if you already have it) but it's still a very minor benefit compared to the various annoyances who have to deal with.

Vampires are lack-luster. Hypnotic gaze doesn't seem to do anything but give a TINY amount of relationship boost. Sure you can spam it, unlike "think of me", but it's got a fairly low success rate (wasting time) and doesn't do what it was advertised as doing (allowing you to drink from any sim regardless of relation status)

And hardly hungry doesn't affect thirst. The only way to delay needing to drink is to successfully drink from a hunted target. Also their sunlight issues are so pathetic, they're more a minor annoyance then a real threat.

Vampire. I like to live forever and watch my descendants live their lives. My main sim I play has a family nine generations old. Witches are my second but I hate them when I'm not playing one, they always curse me or turn me into a frog.

All good points.
I would however like to point out that a few good abilities are better then alot of crapy ones.

Ghosts. Yes, they're annoying and difficult to control but...no-clipping, see through, and etermal.
