Oh wait, these aren't going to be edges.

Well, I'll figure out something patriotic for a paragraph later.

I'm going to side with the Vampire in this battle.The Dingonek is a fearsome beast and has a large number of fearsome natural weapons built-in like its fearsome tail and powerful claws. That said, the Vampire is packing a pretty fearsome arsenal itself- less so in natural ones, though the teeth and claws /are/ powerful, but in superhuman attributes. The Vampires speed and strength advantage will allow it to move circles around the Dingonek and pester at it until it suffers a death of a million cuts, assuming the vampire isn't able to simply devour the life out of it. The Dingonek is more durable, and could tank through a lot of the Vampire's blows, but utimately that's irrelvant if it can't hit the Vampire, and that's one of the DIngonek's biggest failings here- it simply won't be able to keep up with the supernautral foe before it.

Additionally, the Dingonek lacks the human inteligence and thought to outfight the Vampire- who can lure the creature into traps and scenarios that benefit them while hindering the animal, allowing the Vampire to create a much easier victory. The Dingonek may be able to survive a bullet, but there are still plenty of tools used by a hunter that the Vampire could utilize, or it could simply lure the creature somewhere where its weakness to sunlight is off the record books. Conversly, the Dingonek is not smart enough to utilize any tactics that could take advantage of the Vampire's weaknesses.
