Quote1 I am a vampire. It's wonderful. I take my energy directly from the lifeblood of others. Quote2
Hal Jordan src

Hal Jordan was a Green Lantern who became the first vampire to infiltrate the Justice League of America.

Hal Jordan was a member of the Green Lantern Corps. At one point after Mary, Queen of Blood's death, he was converted by the new vampire leader, making him the first vampire to infiltrate the Justice League.

When Andrew Bennett came to the Hall of Justice, having learned about Mary's death and a new vampire conspiracy to wage war on humanity, Hal tried to keep his presence a secret by claiming he and Zan were the only ones in the Hall of Justice at the time. After Andrew told them everything he had discovered and learned about the conspiracy, Zan decided to go get the rest of the League, exposing Hal's lies and forcing the vampiric Green Lantern to kill the Wonder Twin, revealing that he had been turned into a vampire. After he interrogated Andrew and decided that he hadn't spoken to anyone, he had the rogue vampire burned to death with a ring-created sun projection.

Powers

  • Vampirism: In addition to the various mental and physical benefits that vampires are heir to, they also possess the ability to turn others into vampires as well. Each new vampire is traditionally subservient to the one who "turned" them, but some strong-willed vampires have been known to rebel against their masters.
    • Enhanced Senses: A vampire's senses are enhanced far beyond those of a normal human being.
    • Immortality: So long as vampires continue to consume blood, they will not age beyond the physical state they were in when they first became a vampire.
    • Invulnerability: Vampires are invulnerable to most forms of injury (certain exceptions apply). Bullets, blades and blunt objects do little to no damage to a vampire's body.
    • Regeneration: In addition to being virtually indestructible, whatever damage a vampire does in fact suffer can be healed through the consumption of human blood.
    • Superhuman Strength: A vampire's strength level is several times that of a normal human being and they are considered superhuman.
    • Superhuman Speed: A vampire's speed level is several times that of a normal human being and they are considered superhuman.
    • Superhuman Stamina: So long as they continue to consume human blood, a vampire can function tirelessly without rest or relaxation. However, a vampire's stamina wanes the closer it is to sunrise.
    • Psychokinesis: Most vampires possess some form of psychokinesis. Some are clairvoyant, others can communicate telepathically, some possess mind control. Particularly powerful vampires can control the minds of several people at once.
    • Transformation: Vampires often possess the ability to transform into a variety of creatures or effects such as bats, wolves, rats or even mist. While their physical attributes may fluctuate during such states, a vampire's mental acuity is the same as that when they are in their human shape. A vampire who transforms into an animal may also benefit from that particular animal's attributes including razor-sharp claws, fangs or the ability to fly. Vampires also often demonstrate the ability to alter their appearance at will.
