Card text

Attacking Vampires you control have deathtouch and lifelink. (Any amount of damage they deal to a creature is enough to destroy it. Damage dealt by those creatures also causes their controller to gain that much life.)

Whenever a Vampire you control dies, you may pay 2 life. If you do, draw a card.
