ART: Some random stuff found on google that i edited together with bitpaint: http://i.imgur.com/S75FPEy.jpg Uncopyrighted image from a derelict cosplay store: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/140cm-Halloween-Adult-vampire-cape-cloak-of-death-robes-Cosplay-Black-Red-Erect-Collar-Cloak-Cape/1955464234.html I was undecided which image should I use, so i used both. Spoiler for images conserved: http://imgur.com/a/BawnY http://i.imgur.com/S75FPEy.jpg IDEA: I saw a girl in a red-black dress with red collars today and I started wondering why the Vampire in Elements is not a Fire-Darkness creature. NOTES: When Sinister Vampire attacks after gaining Life Drain, the damage dealt by it is not only added to its max HP, but also heals it. Synergy with Rage Potion|Rage Elixir, and also a viable addition to any Rage Voodoo deck. Bloodthirst is lobotomizable. Spoiler for Old versions: SERIES: none

If the point is to synergise with rage potion, I'd increase its HP to 6, or even 7.
Simply because, yes, whilst it heals a lot, Voodoo is both a lot quicker and harder to kill with (damage-based) CC in the first place.

Voodoo: Play it. Rage it. Boom.
Sinister Vampire: Play it. Wait a turn to activate ability. Wait a turn to get 7 HP. Hope it wasn't CC'd at all during this point. Rage it. Boom.
Or, even, compare it with Guardian Angel: Play it. Rage it. Self-heal. Boom.

I'd make this ability merely active, not an activated.
"Whenever Sinister Vampire deals damage, it gains that much max HP."
If you want to have the vampire still have a link to fire:
"Whenever Sinister Vampire deals damage, drain to have it gain that much max HP."

Oddly enough, it makes a strange and very interesting combo with overdrive + gravity pull, but that'd require a trio.

Good point about its speed. I should make it have more HP.
I am also willing to remove the reliance if card balance demands it, though at first I'd like to see if the HP boost will be enough.
Overdrive brings up a question. Bloodthirst is lobotomizable, true, but should Life Drain be also lobotomizable? Because if yes, then the Overdrive combo wouldn't work.

HP is now increased and I also decreased the cost of the cards to increase usefulness.
Now I fear that it might be OP compared to Parasite|Bloodsucker based on stats only.
