Can you use temtation on your own vampires? If yes, I assume one can trigger the effect of Temptation to untap the affected vampire. Is this right ? Mathieu

No. It uses a "During X, Do Y" template for each of its abilities (master phase considerations, minion phase considerations). During X, Do Y means *once* During X, Do Y. [ quoted text not captured ]

[ quoted text not captured ] Excuse me, but where is it noticed on the card that we must have at least one counter to trigger it ? Following official card text, from WW website : Temptation Cardtype: Action Cost: 1 blood Discipline: Serpentis [ser] (D) Put this card on a ready vampire; you still control this card. During your master phase, you may put a temptation counter on this card. During your minion phase, if the number of counters on this card equals or exceeds the amount of blood on that vampire, you may burn all the <counters> on this card to untap that vampire and take control of him or her until the end of your turn. [SER] As above, but put a counter on this card when you put it on the vampire. IMHO, I think it is possible to burn zero counter to take control of a bloodless Vampire... LSJ ?

[ quoted text not captured ] Im' sorry to see that, by the supported James response on this thread, the english language logic is different from the italian one. That is, in italian, "number of counter" means = 1 or more; else, with zero counter there's NO counter, and no "number of counter" to burn at all... Anyway, i see that's the way it works, so, sorry for giving a wrong response. Best Emiliano, prince of Rome [ quoted text not captured ]

[ quoted text not captured ] Heck, you could make a whole deck with nothing but non-unique vampires! Blood Doll off the Fida'I, and then let them untap with a zero-counter Temptations (put on by your Aabbt Kindred), hunt with Succulent Vitae, and then untap them with a 1-counter Temptation. They're ready to go, and able to play some cool card (Blood Clots, Foul Blood, Taste of Death, etc) for free! Of course, first you need the 8-12 Temptations...drat. =) [ quoted text not captured ]
