This card is related to Vampire Lord. Both monsters have the same color scheme and same ATK, but revive through different forms of destruction.
This card appears in the artwork of “Overpowering Eye”.
This card's effect may be a reference to how vampires subsist on blood (in this case, Life Points) and how they grow stronger as they do so (in this case, an ATK boost). This is shown in the manga when this monster bit Tilla Mook's neck when she activated its effect.
This monster is one of three male 'Noble' undead creatures, the other two being “Vampire Lord” and “Patrician of Darkness”.
