Blood Tribute
Sorcery
KickerTap an untapped Vampire you control. (You may tap a Vampire you control in addition to any other costs as you cast this spell.)
Target opponent loses half his or her life, rounded up. If Blood Tribute was kicked, you gain life equal to the life lost this way.

Dark Ritual into Entomb into Reanimate is OG Legacy. I get it... But this is EDH. Sure we have more life to play with but I don't think it is better. 1. Instant speed 2. Haste (in Orzhov!) 3. Deck has a sacrificing strategy which nullifies both "negatives" (the exile clause and what is on the top of your graveyard) 4. Forever in your hand
Vito, Fanatic of Aclazotz value
Blood Tribute/New Blood too gimmicky?

New Blood Blood Tribute Arterial Flow might be useful alongside your commander.
Slaughter reusable destruction/trigger
Blighted Fen another trigger
Scarblade Elite not sure if there are enough assassins but it's a cool card.

Just for fun, throw in Karn's Bastion or something with Proliferate to put multiple Bounty counters on things.
Bounty Hunter and Termination Facilitator both put Bounty counters on creatures for more fun.
I feel like you need to punish opponents for for drawing cards or maybe reduce their hand size. Black Vise? One of the white cards that limit you to one spell per turn? Tainted Remedy
Maybe Blood Tribute since your boss is a vampire

Anowon, the 'I Ruined It' Sage

Coat of Arms usually helps your opponents more than you. Obelisk of Urd might be more helpful.
If you boss is getting whacked Blessing of Leeches is nice defense.
Astarion's Thirst is thematic and can make your boss a beast.
Blood Tribute is terrifying.
Anowon's ability is a triggered effect so if you double the trigger (with Strionic Resonator of any of a few other artifacts) you make people sac twice as many creatures.

I just want to point out that you could do a Rakdos commander deck and have both your pain/punishment as well as lifegain matters in the same deck.
As you already stated, Mogis would have Tobran in his 99. Why not Vito and other lifegain shenanigans?
Cards like Torbran, Thane of Red Fell or Brash Taunter using its fight ability while Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose activated or anything that does big damage equipped with stuff like Basilisk Collar, Batterskull, Shadowspear, Whip of Erebos, and Mask of Griselbrand.
You keep tutors, wheels and burn. You keep synergy with Unspeakable Symbol, Crypt Rats, Aetherflux Reservoir and even Blood Tribute.
I like the sound of a Tobran/Vito deck with say Obosh, the Preypiercer as your commander? Or keep Mogis for his inevitability.

I'm stuck between two different strategies and for each of them I'm stuck between mono color or dual color commanders. Im looking at a pain/punisher deck or a lifegain matters deck. What I need is advice on which of the two commanders you think would fair better for each strategy and why. Which of the two to go with I will have to figure out myself. Budget generally is less than $10-15 a card but cheaper is always better :) I do have most of the more expensive staples (think Craterhoof Behemoth, Wheel of Fortune, Demonic Tutor ect.) however.
Pain:
Torbran, Thane of Red Fell vs Mogis, God of Slaughter: this is a pain/burn/punisher deck. My question is, is the addition of black with admittedly more pain options and tutors/draw worth Torbran's ability to break parity? They'd run the same gambit of cards for the most part but Spellshock is much more damming with Torbran out and readily available. Mogis would run Torbran in the 99 though.
Lifegain Matters:
Dina, Soul Steeper vs Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose: again both like lifegain but Dina prefers quantity over quality whereas Vito is the opposite. I do not own Exquisite Blood (my idiot self traded it away years ago) so that combo probably isn't going to be included. However I am aware of Dina's combo with Witherbloom Apprentice and Chain of Smog which I can pull together. Vito with Blood Tribute will one shot an opponent. You could also run a lifelink creature and pump it with +1/+1 counters through Unspeakable Symbol to gain a ton of life and dome someone with Vito. I also own Aetherflux Reservoir so I can death star someone down with either commander. Crypt Rats with lifelink could also cause some huge shenanigans with Vito.
I've built and play tested some preliminary decks (on tappedout) and I'm leaning towards Torbran/Vito. Just need a slap of reality if I'm wrong :)

Olivia's Crimson Court

lol, without meaning to I've included a few combos.
Olivia, Crimson Bride + Breath of Fury enchanted onto any other creature in the deck + one other creature. This turns into unlimited attacks as long as Olivia and the enchanted creature don't die and the enchanted creature hits a player.
Kicked Blood Tribute + Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose = kill a player, this is a one time version of what happens when those 2 enchantments are used.
