Each other player receives the next Hex. Gain a card costing up to other than a Vampire. Exchange this for a Bat. |
Vampire is a Night-Attack-Doom card from Nocturne. It's a powerful gainer that also Hexes your opponents, but as a check on that power, it turns into a Bat when played. This means you can usually play your Vampire only once every two reshuffles, since you have to play your Bat in order to turn it back into a Vampire.

Preview
Of course there had to be a Vampire, and of course it turns into a Bat. That's what they do. Well vampires do tons of things, but that's one of them, and you can only capture so much in a Dominion card. Vampire gains you cards and Hexes people, while Bat is a trasher, and has to feed to turn back.
Secret History
The idea was to have a vampire that turned into a bat. There were some other flavor things to maybe hit on, but that was the starting point. There were several versions of each card. Vampire always hexed, but played around with different resources, before landing on "gain an Action." In the end that failed for the reason that it usually does - being crazy with expensive Actions. So it became "gain a " and then "other than Vampire" after a game with Matt's group where Alex went crazy for Vampires. The order of abilities shifted some, as everything wants to be first.
